Rebbe's Yahrtzeit #6: Health

לרפואת יוכבד פייגע בת מיכל יהודית בתיה בתוך שח"י

The Rav ztz"l says in Oros Hatshuva that the FIRST step in tshuva is תשובה הטבעית - meaning, taking care of one's health. That is the basis of Avodas Hashem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You can't serve Hashem, says the Rambam, if you are not healthy!!! Visit the hospital and you will see what I mean. 

So the first step of tshuva: 

1] Cut sugar, white flour, soft drinks, fatty foods, friend foods [a typo but I kept it😀], red meat, all forms of junk food etc. etc. etc. out of your diet [as much as you can. You won't die from eating one cookie - unless of course it is laced w/ cyanide chas vi-shalom😉 !!]!!! 

2] Exercise!!!!!!!!!!!!

3] Sleep sufficiently!!! 

Diet, exercise and sleep. 

Then you can move forward and get to the spiritual part!!!!
