Body, Mind & Spirit:The Awakening (Day 12:Prayer and Meditation)

by James Hackley

Overview

French philosopher Blaise Pascal famously stated, “All of humanity’s problems stem from man’s inability to sit quietly in a room alone.” Now, I’m not sure if I’m willing to co-sign Pascal’s theory 100% like he has a bad FICO and credit report, but I do believe he’s on to something. Spending quality time with God has a way of putting the pieces of life’s puzzles together. A quiet mind is the foundation of inner peace, and inner peace translates to outer peace. Therefore, if meditation is listening then I truly need to do a lot of it and perhaps you do as well. If we are busy complaining, we’re not listening. If we are busy thinking why not me, we’re not listening. If we are busy being negative, we’re not listening. Meditation allows us to stop and listen to what we need to hear in order to make the best decisions in our life. It can be used as a daily healing ritual that calms the body, stills the mind and ushers in the Holy Spirit. When we meditate, we are taking time out of our distractions, fears, prejudices and other stresses by creating a quiet space that promotes calmness, energy, peace and a strong sense of rejuvenation. In this place of peace, many folks are first introduced to their spirituality or simply reconnect to their original spirit that somehow got lost along the way.

Unfortunately, many of us believe we don’t have time to do many of the important things we know we should. Time is really all we have. It’s best to endeavor to set aside quiet time; it is here that you will come to know yourself and God. Prayer and meditation are excellent methods of accomplishing these things. Pray about each task you take on, and resist taking on those tasks you have no time to pray over.

Prayer is the act of actively seeking contact with God. But how does it work? On Day 12 we’ll examine the mechanics or prayer and meditation like you’ve never seen before.

About the Author

James Hackley just may be the most blessed individual you’ll ever meet. Despite a highly successful sales & marketing career that has spanned the last two decades, his true “calling” is touching the lives of others and inspiring them to want to change for the better. As a result of a major epiphany, James was able to lose an amazing 50 lbs of fat in just 4 months and has sculpted his 46-yr-old body into the best shape ever. He has learned to significantly reduce stress, quiet the mind and get in touch with his spirit like never before. As a result, he’s been able to free himself from a lifetime sentence of high blood pressure and high cholesterol prescription medications. More importantly, he’s been able to inspire those around him to do the same.

In his latest release, Body, Mind & Spirit: The Awakening, James explores the root causes of why we overeat, refuse to exercise, live chaotic lives and fail to accomplish the goals that God has intended for our life since the dawn of time. This is not just another diet or “weight loss” (loss of fat and muscle) book. Diets simply don’t work, and James emphasizes how we need to be more concerned about “fat loss.” In fact, this guaranteed bestseller would be better categorized as a “Negativity Loss” guide: loss of negative fat, negative habits, negative foods, negative people, negative thoughts and negative actions. This guide arms you with knowledge and encouragement to put a plan into action to finally master the things that have long mastered you.

Mr. Hackley received a Bachelor of Science degree in Physics from Longwood College, a Master of Science degree in Civil Engineering from the University of Virginia, he’s chaplain of a local chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity and an active member of Holy & Whole Life Changing Ministries International in Loudoun County, Virginia.
