Prayer to Hygeia for Help Maintaining One's Health

[underflow]

Hygeia, gracious goddess whose noble heart
and healing hands are well known to all, kindly
giver of strength and hearty good health to mankind,
I pray to you, help me to tend my body and mind
with care and constancy, grant me the discipline
to moderate my vices, to modify
my habits, to exercise wisdom in my choice
of fare, my work and my rest. May I find my way
to wellness and wholeness, may I become one
who seeks the good. May I be fit to do the work
of my life. Hygeia, who helps those the most who help
themselves, goddess, grant me the resolve to succeed.
