Would you like to know how to keep the body healthy?  

One way is to watch what you harbor in consciousness.  A consciousness of Truth and Love is a healthy consciousness that brings health to the body.  Knowing God’s omnipotence and living God’s love keeps thought in a good place and has a good effect on everything it rests upon, including the body.

And to the contrary, any mental images that are not of God need to be promptly cast out.  Images and descriptions of disease, fears, fabulous beliefs predicting suffering, and their kin, are all enemies to health, and should be summarily ejected from consciousness and replaced with images of Truth and Love, which in turn, preserve good health.

As Mary Baker Eddy writes about the body, “You embrace your body in your thought, and you should delineate upon it thoughts of health, not of sickness” (Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 208).  This is an instruction we can all practice on a regular basis.  

We do not have to accept into thought everything that comes our way.  If it’s from God, welcome it in.  If it’s from the carnal mind, kick it out.  

Keep consciousness filled with truth and love coming from God and delineate health on the body.
