PUBLISHER’ S NOTE
Peace and Blessings, Sweet Sisters!
I do hope you all are enjoying your summer thus far. I also trust you are spending time with family and friends, relaxing, resetting, recharging, and practicing true holistic self-care.
Far too often, we as women prioritize the lives and needs of everyone around us and allow our own to go unaddressed; spiritual, mental, and yes, physical. The question is,“ At what cost?”
Magazine TM
The Word of God teaches us that we house the Holy Spirit within our physical bodies. What an amazing gift and treasure entrusted to our care!( 1 Corinthians 6:19) This scripture caused me to ponder this … we have alarm systems to alert us and to protect our homes and the valuables therein from threats, but what indicators are there to alert us concerning threats against our physical bodies? Ultimately protecting the most valuable gift of all, that in the third person of the Trinity, also known as the Holy Ghost.
Many of us are not tuned in to the warnings of the Holy Spirit and the cries( aches, pains, and symptoms) of our own physical beings. Rather than listening to our bodies, we have been conditioned to deal with pain gracefully. While ignoring our bodies may masquerade as strength, we are doing ourselves a disservice. The reality is that when we do not listen to our bodies, we open the door to great weakness and sometimes irreversible vulnerabilities.
This heartfelt and highly informative July 2025 Issue of the DIVA Zone Magazine is part 2 of 3 of our Special Summer Editions dedicated to Women’ s Overall Health. Here we delve into all things women’ s physical health and learn from an expert, what we can all do better to enjoy longer and healthier lives. The articles are shorter in nature and full of sound instruction to aid you in your journey of prioritizing you. You matter, Sis, and again, we need you to be well. Better than well.
I invite you to subscribe to the DIVA Zone Magazine to receive print copies each month to the comfort of your homes or businesses. In the meantime, reserve some“ Me Time” and feast upon the goodness filled to the brim for us all! This issue will bless your life and add value to you in every way imaginable.
In Closing, let us meditate upon this scripture found in 3 John 1:2: " Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul ".
Bountiful Blessings,
