The soul speaks of the mind, emotions & intellect.
You need to feed the soul the same way that you keep your body fed.
A soul that is not fed or fed with junks on a consistent basis begins to shrivel up; you’d notice this in the weakness of the mind, the unpredictability of the emotions & the dullness of the intellect.
The food you feed to your soul can either kill it, make it malnourished or cause it to blossom.
Feeding the soul the right foods at the right time is vital & must be an intentional act.
Unlike food for your body which requires your consent & participation, your soul can be fed without your consent especially when you are not intentional about this.
Food for your soul are often intangible things, that cannot be touched nor held, yet its impact is undeniable.
They are the things you see, hear, say & think.
Your soul gets fed through the written texts you read (such as books, posts of any kind magazines, Ads etc), what you watch(Movies, documentaries, shows, skits), the music you listen to, the thoughts you dwell on, the words you speak & are spoken to you.
Have you noticed how you can listen to a music & get all excited? You find yourself excited & ready to take on the world?
Then you listen to yet another music & you are fighting tears? Music is food for the soul, be deliberate about the music you choose & the music your environment chooses
A typical scenario is how you’d find yourself humming the lyrics of a song that someone else was playing/singing on repeat around you. While you weren’t ‘paying’ to it, your soul was soaking up on it.
Unlike your body which is fed through your mouth, your soul can be fed via several Inlets.
Your soul can be fed through your eyes, ears & mouth.
A periodic check of these inlets & the nature of food that goes into them might just be hack you need for a healthy soul.
Cheers to health & wholeness in our souls!!!
