Icebergs
reveal only about one-tenth of their mass above the water. Your current
state of health and mind are just like the tip of the iceberg that is
above water.
To
understand all that creates and supports your current state of health and
mind you have to look under the surface.
The
closest to the surface level are behavioral and lifestyle levels.
Underneath are cultural and motivational levels.
At the very foundation of the iceberg there is a
spiritual or being realm.
It includes the unconscious mind, and such issues as your reason for being, the real meaning of your life, or
your place in the universe.
How
you address these bigger questions, and the answer you choose, underlie and
permeate all of the layers above. Ultimately, this realm determines
whether the tip of the iceberg, representing your state of health, is one
of a disease or wellness.
