This is the first element of health and the end of the whole health chapter!
All along, I especially like to see some hundred-year-old healthy people with clear thinking and bright ears talking about his long life. I always want to see some "peerless health secrets" in their sharing.
But many times, these old people share experiences, especially mainland goods. Early to bed and early to rise, not picky about food, walking more, nothing special. What is even more bizarre is that the living habits of several old birthday girls are a bit unhealthy at first glance! Big fish and big meat are not taboo, and occasionally smoking a small cigarette and drinking a small wine are not taboo. Sometimes, they are fun-loving, stay up late, and are especially chic.
Is it okay? ! Then I don't understand why they can live in such a spirit, while many people who pay more attention to "healthy life" than them live far less long and moist.
Joshua Rosenthal, the founder of Integrative Nutrition, the world's largest nutrition training school, told such a story.
When he was young, he used to work in a health care product store. Every day, many health experts come to the store to choose health care products. They will read the ingredient labels on each bottle of nutrition products very carefully, ask about the efficacy of these products in detail, take out the eating records of each meal and ask Joshua whether their dietary intake is reasonable, and make meticulous records.
After work, Joshua sometimes goes to the nearby cinema to watch movies. The living conditions of people there are almost the opposite. They chew popcorn, drink coke and laugh with their family and friends.
This scene prompted Joshua to start thinking. Why do these people with unhealthy diets look happier and more energetic than those who are very elegant and healthy?
After years of research, Joshua put forward a subversive view in his best-selling book on nutrition: the diet regarded as the lifeblood of health preservation by traditional nutrition is actually our "second food", and the "main food" of life is the "spiritual food" that can really nourish life and soul.
Many of us have had this experience. Playing crazy with friends when I was a child. When it's time to eat, my mother calls for dinner, but we are not hungry at all. We just want to keep playing with our friends.
For example, every Sunday is my writing time. When I am completely immersed in writing, I often forget to eat and sleep, and I don't feel hungry for a long time.
In other words, our life is "fed" by "spiritual food" such as good interpersonal relationships and meaningful work, and has been fully nourished. And people who eat spiritual food are strong and full of vitality.
So dear, please remember that spiritual life is the first element of health! Spiritual life is the first element of health! Spiritual life is the first element of health! Say the important things three times.
When we have a healthy and full spiritual life and feel comfortable and broad-minded, our life can truly bloom her beauty from the inside out.
In fact, this has returned to the three propositions of life (self-relationship, intimate relationship and social relationship).
When we straighten out the three propositions of life, our spiritual life will enter a healthy and powerful self-cycle, and health will naturally be brought out in this cycle system.
How to straighten out the three propositions of life will be elaborated in detail in my new book to be published in the second half of the year, and I will summarize it today. Everyone just needs to remember that health not only needs to regulate our physical body, but also needs high-quality spiritual life!
In my opinion, this is the most important of the three propositions. If the self-relationship is straightened out, it will be difficult for the other two relationships to go wrong.
All external environments are internal projections. When we establish a complete self-relationship, learn to love, accept, respect and trust ourselves, then the external environment will become very friendly under the strong inner projection of health.
This is why some people are happy no matter what environment you put them in, and everything is pleasing to the eye. No matter how many others are unhappy, they can always find out their shortcomings. This is actually caused by the internal energy level and the integrity of self-relationship, and has little to do with the friendliness of the objective environment.
Let's look back at those centenarians. Although their daily routine and eating habits may be different, their friends often use words such as "calm personality" and "cheerful and open-minded" to describe these old people, which shows that these old people belong to people with very complete and healthy self-relationship, so they can keep their inner peace and enrichment in the ups and downs of life and grasp their own health.
Intimacy includes all the most important interpersonal relationships in our lives, such as parents, lovers, children, friends and so on. Good intimacy will fill our hearts with love and energy, while bad intimacy will make our whole life out of balance.
A long time ago, I had a good friend who turned against me because of some misunderstanding, so he pushed me out and slandered me everywhere. Besides, we are classmates, so we can't look up all day without looking down. These inevitable satire and innuendo made me miserable as a young man. For two whole years, I was on pins and needles and depressed.
For another example, I once liked a boy, but he was always at arm's length with me, with an ambiguous attitude. Too young and too simple, I never knew whether he regarded me as a lover or a friend, so it was another sleepless night.
Although my life at that time was beautiful and smooth as a whole, because these people were very important to me, the disagreement with them was enough to turn my life upside down and lead my whole life to a trough.
Later, I spent many years learning communication skills, learned to tolerate and accept others, and left some people before I slowly straightened out these relationships. I shared these skills in detail in my last lecture "How to get along with your partner". In fact, these skills apply not only to you and your lover, but also to all intimate relationships.
Now I feel particularly confident, not only because I sincerely love and trust the people around me, but also because I know that no matter what happens in the future, I have the ability to continue to establish and grasp these relationships.
We don't rely on luck, but on strength to build a harmonious intimate relationship!
For me, good social relations are successful and meaningful.
Success means that we are recognized and appreciated in our field, and our contribution has brought good income and supported the ideal living standard (a crop has long passed the age of being willing to eat soil for the ideal). Of course, it would be better to achieve financial freedom!
Meaningful means that what you are doing is very important to you and its value is recognized by you. You feel particularly proud and motivated to do it. If your career is your mission in life, that's the best! The mission will give us a direction far higher than our personal efforts, and also give us infinite strength. Such people are full, strong and satisfied.
For some people, their lifelong career is to realize their mission. Every day, they try their best to realize their mission like chicken blood. In this process, they have created great value for society and great wealth for themselves. For example, talk show queen oprah winfrey, the world's number one potential coach Tony Robbins and so on. It is my ultimate goal to become such a person who has made great contributions to society and can create great wealth.
For others, their success and significance may be temporarily separated, which is a very popular concept of slash youth. They may be more professional in one field and earn money to support their families by this job, but their mission is in another field, so they use their spare time to do things related to their mission and not make money, such as writing about WeChat official account to advocate a full life; Many people in the United States are keen to participate in volunteer activities; Many people in our company work part-time in charities and so on.
From the perspective of life, in fact, this arrangement is also balanced, both successful and meaningful, although not in the same field.
Where is your current social relationship? What level do you want to reach?
Finally, let's make a summary for the whole health article.
The maintenance system for completely reversing the sub-health state of crops includes the following four steps (in order of importance):
1. Spiritual life
2. Sleep (up and down)
3. Nutrition (upper, middle and lower)
4. Exercise (up and down)
Spiritual life is the first element of health, so please take care of your life with a relaxed and happy attitude: sleep well, eat well, exercise well and live well, and health will come naturally.
I wish you happiness!

A book full of wisdom. I appreciate and agree with Joshua's attitude towards health and nutrition.
