"One cannot lead another where one has not gone himself”

 "One cannot lead another where one has not gone himself” 
We cannot teach what we do not know.  In health and wellness we cannot help others create their wellness if we have not created our own.  I feel health care professionals should be obligated to take care of themselves mentally, physically, and spiritually.  If you are in good whole health than you have a better chance of promoting it.  Being aware and developing psychologically and spiritually involves practice in loving-kindness and the subtle mind.
