Today we discuss how your physical health and wellness go hand in hand with your development in virtue and growth in holiness. Dr. Kevin Vost joins us to address the huge rise in diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, liver disease, obesity, and other health-related illnesses in society today. We go into the false notion that you are either physically strong or mentally strong and that the integration of the two leads to a more grateful, loving, healthy, and holy life. Do we have a moral obligation to take care of ourselves and what is the correct balance?
