TIRED OF BEING TIRED

If we are tired of being tired, we must accept and understand our bodies. Morton outlines a simple approach to rest, nutrition and exercise.
He demonstrates the dynamics of stress and how dangerous it can be. Priests, religious and laity today take on impossible jobs, suffer from insomnia, and weight gain. Fear, guilt and dependency rule too many lives. Morton reveals to the listeners ways to accept our destiny, embrace our humanity and be true to ourselves. He affirms the importance of vacations and taking time for healthy hobbies so that we get enough exercise. He acknowledges how hard it is to care for our bodies with sound nutrition, exercise and rest. Yet, if we do not care for our bodies in these most fundamental ways we will find ourselves unable to finish projects and we will increase our frustration through endless procrastination.
Our emotions also need to be developed in healthy, comfortable relationships. He explains the need for setting boundaries, rules and norms of conduct. They are essential for creating an environment that is safe and supportive where hope, faith and love can grow. He distinguishes for the listener the difference between needs and wants and helps the listener begin to set priorities and realistic goals in life. Be caring for ourselves the way God cares for us we will be strong enough to be flexible and be able to reclaim our souls as we care for our bodies and feelings.
Drawing upon years of experience at Guest House, the speaker knows how easy it is for people to become victims of their own self hatred born out of loneliness, isolation, and ignored needs for being close to others.
