What are some of the decisions you make each day that affect your health?

Jann taught a wonderful lesson in Relief Society on Sunday. These are some of the quotes from the lesson:

"Nutritious meals, regular exercise, and appropriate sleep are necessary for a strong body, just as consistent scripture study and prayer strengthen the mind and spirit." President Thomas S. Monson

"Our physical body is the instrument of our spirit. In that marvelous revelation, the Word of Wisdom, we are told how to keep our bodies free from impurities which might dull, even destroy, those delicate physical senses which have to do with spiritual communication. The Word of Wisdom is a key to individual revelation." President Thomas S. Monson


"It's amazing how quickly the body responds to good food.... The human body has different needs in different seasons and in different climates. Strawberries are one of the first fruits of spring and act as a cleanser in the digestive tract. Root vegetables, like carrots, are available in the fall to help prepare for the winter months. Everything Heavenly Father has done is for a purpose." Brad Peterson from The 'do's of the Word of Wisdom by Christine Rappleye
