How Finding Your Calling Can Improve Your Life
It is well known that when we find our calling or something that fulfills us, life improves dramatically. This can be volunteering, finding the profession that was meant for us or the person who inspires us.

Health and Life Purpose are Linked
How are physical healing and life purpose related? As I described in my book Mind Over Medicine: Scientific Proof That You Can Heal Yourself,
your body is beautifully equipped with natural self-healing mechanisms
that can destroy cancer, fight off infection, reverse heart disease, and
slow aging. However, here’s the kicker. Your body’s self-healing
mechanisms only function when your nervous system is in the
parasympathetic mode, or what Herbert Benson at Harvard called the
“relaxation response.” Every time your nervous system goes into the
sympathetic mode, which Walter Cannon at Harvard called the “stress
response” or which you may know as the “fight or flight” response, your
body’s natural self-healing mechanisms get flipped off.
