A.R.E. Meeting for 12/18/23

Leader: Sylvia
 
Four followers celebrated the season by discussing how eating is affected by our physical and mental bodies. In the Essential Edgar Cayce book, we started the section on “Physical Fitness” and read through Reading 341-13. We are now up to page 155, “The Workshop of Marriage.”
 
Experiment: This is a three-part experiment that will take us to our next meeting.

Part 1. In the week leading up to Christmas, reflect on how our activities should be balanced physically and mentally concerning our diet. See what you eat doing what you want it to do.

Part 2. We know that the days before Christmas through the New Year make us susceptible to overindulging. If this happens, try to physically compensate for the extra calories (e.g., exercise), and mentally understand the reason for the excess. With this understanding, accept that we had a reason (e.g., celebrating with loved ones) and will make amends as we are able.

Part 3. With the holidays behind us, and while making resolutions for the new year, use the diet to help us become more perfect channels for the manifestations of God. Our body is our temple.
