In our postmodern living we are moving away from the natural world which guaranteed our success in evolution as a species. Then, rationality brought us out of the biblical Paradise in search of Utopia. We have been travelers searching for this ultimate destination.
Imagine the world of the "lost" - professionals and students, ordinary people notwithstanding. It is a world where
- Thoughts refuse to close down, even only for respite.
- Energy drains the whole being, even before starting to work.
- Sleep never comes on time and is never enough.
- Relationships are strained, if not alienated.
- Family bond is breaking up.
- Self worth and respect are falling to a point of depression, or suicide.
Relaxation is a discipline, a regimen, to
- · switch off your thoughts to release stress before it builds up.
- · conserve energy, budget it well
- · sleep well to obtain full rest.
- · mend relationships, build friendship
- · bond closely with your family.
- · discover your potentials to enhance self worth and respect.
