How to Maintain Good Spiritual Health



To maintain your spiritual health, engage in regular devotional practices like prayer and meditation. Be mindful in your daily activities, and stay in touch with your body, your emotions, and your sense of connection to all beings. Move beyond your fears and ambitions by doing good work for others, and empathizing with their concerns.
Meditate and pray. Prayer and meditation are activities you can engage in daily, or many times a day. By incorporating it into your daily routine, you can maintain your spiritual health in the same way that you maintain your physical health. Pray or meditate by yourself or with a group.
·         Join a prayer group at your place of worship.
·         Gather with a yoga and meditation group in parks and other natural places.



Take monthly or yearly excursions to reconnect to your spirituality. It's important to have a daily routine, but you don't want to just go through the motions. To break your habits and get a new perspective, go to a new place and spend a longer time working at your spiritual practices.
·         Go on a silent meditation retreat.
·         Take a trip with a church group.
·         Make a pilgrimage to a holy place.

Study core texts and contemporary takes. Read the earliest texts of your faith tradition, like the Torah, the Tripitaka, or the Qur'ran. Try reading a little every day. Join a reading group or get a study buddy to keep you on schedule.
·         If you are interested in spirituality across religious faiths, read texts from many faiths.
·         Read poetry and song lyrics inspired by the core texts of your faith.

Reflect on your beliefs. Rather than being a passive believer, maintain your spiritual health by questioning, affirming, and revising the principles of your faith.
·         Write down the things you hold to be true, and write a little bit about them.
·         If something is troubling you, don't hide it from yourself. Share it with someone you trust, and discuss your concerns together.

The higher your sperm count, the easier it should be to father a child. When you ejaculate, your semen should contain at least 15 million sperm per milliliter. If it is lower, this doesn’t mean you can’t have a child, it just makes it harder. You can maximize your sperm count by protecting your sperm from damaging substances, living a healthy lifestyle, and getting treatment for any underlying medical problems.

Vitamin B is actually a complex of eight different vitamins. All are involved in helping the body break down food to make energy, but various B vitamins also help to ward off headaches, to support the immune system, and to ensure healthy pregnancies, amongst other things. A balanced diet will typically provide you with your daily allowance of each kind of Vitamin B, but there may be health benefits from consuming additional B vitamins. Know that there are 8 vitamins in the B group.  Each vitamin plays a slightly different role in promoting good health.
