The Three in One Makes Four

A thoughtful approach to whole health.

Three parts
to make one whole.
But to keep it from falling apart
you have to recognize it as four.
Emotion, thought, and body
form the spirit.
If you fail to tend to one part
the ground becomes a shaky base,
upsetting other elements
and sending reverberations into the whole.
Tend to the three to complete the one,
and to please the one means to calm the three.
There is four of you,
and four of me.
Let me tend to my four during the day,
piece by piece,
and then could I say that I'm okay.
For if each are satisfied,
then my day is utmostly successful.
But if a part is unearthed,
then the challenge is to balance,
and I must strive to do my best.
