"If we are feeling so stressed and sad that we seek out comforting foods from our early years, why do so many of us resist seeking out the "spiritual" comfort food from our youth? In a time of tribulation and turmoil, why do so many people fight returning to the simple truths and wisdom that they learned at their mother's knee and at their father's table?
I'm not talking about difficult doctrines or deep theology. I mean childlike graces like simple, comforting kindness. I mean the spiritual impressions that make us feel just as alive and real as all those stimulations we look for in movies, music and even drugs".
This article offers down to the earth, practical insight that may help one reevaluate day to day living experiences and reformulate the approach we take to self healing during times of stress.
