The festive meeting is around the corner - is a season of joy and celebration, but also the time of year where many people feel very alone and isolated.
This is the continuation of the preceding article, Reversing cardiopatÃa-a through lifestyle changes (scientifically). The following would be appropriate and could perhaps serve as a convenience for those of you who may feel especially down during this time of year. We can be with groups of friends partying and still feel empty, hollow. On the other hand, we can be alone and still disputed and in peace. Why we feel that way - sometimes and sometimes deposits of? Why is it so nobody seemed to understand us or who did not know what we already?
Perhaps this heightened sense of isolation and loneliness that goes largely untreated and unresolved explain why cardiac diseases remain one of the leading cause of death in many rich and developed countries. When I look in the eyes of many people, I saw deep unrest in a number of them. Still lost and not know what to do…. only goes to life in movements and reacting to situations. The joy of success dresses in a time - to be replaced soon by stress, self-imposed expectation and eventually brings more feelings of isolation and loneliness.
Below (in blue font) is quoted book by Dr. Dean Ornish, "Dr. Dean Ornish program for Reversing Heart Disease". I am fully quoting his book because many people would be able of relate to what is saying - nobody could say better than him. The following is taken from Chapter 4 "lifestyle of the rich and famous" (pages 98-100).
I hope will offer you some comfort if you feel down….
Offer someone with health information is not always sufficient to encourage changes in behaviour. All we are going to die at some point, but if you really not enjoying life, who cares about behaviour change? When I was a student of medicine, head of Oncology and the pulmonary medicine head smoked. It was not because they didn't know better, but seem to be very unhappy persons. There are many ways to be self-destructive, slow or fast, when life us brings happiness that we expect.
When a person perceives itself as isolated and alone, this creates a vision of the world that is fundamentally counter-productive and destructive auto. This self-destruction can come in many forms, including compulsive exercise, compulsive work, compulsive sex, smoking, alcoholism, drugs and the million and an other ways that we can have to distance ourselves from others and our feelings. And while they can temporarily help to relieve pain, increase our feelings of isolation, leading to more pain in a vicious circle.
Secondly, change behavior isn't always enough real healing to occur. We must deal with underlying behavior. It is not enough simply to change behaviors such as diet and exercise, because our behaviours are just manifestations of our us. We need also to change perceptions of isolation that can carry or these behaviors. The issue is not only living longer, but also be freer self-imposed limitation that often lead to suffering.
Thirdly, when we invest our self-worth and self-esteem in the outcome of an event or the behaviour of someone else, then give this power event, or person on our lives, to make us happy or sad, to make us feel good or bad about ourselves and, ultimately, to live or die.
Finally, people should only power over us the degree you have something that we believe that we need. When we define ourselves as separate, we define ourselves as absence and needy. When we chose a sand - in this case, "If only out a world-class athlete" - then we give away our power.
Therefore, to summarize, isolation can lead to disease, while privacy can lead to healing. Insulation comes in several ways:
Isolation of our feelings, our own inner self and interior of a force majeure othersIsolation peaceIsolationAll cultures and times have had difficult problems, and people worried about famine, wars, plates and so on. Chronic stress in 20th century America comes not only the increased pace of modern life, but also from the isolation, loneliness and lack of love and support that many people experience.
In summary, today stress comes not only from what we do but also how we react to what we do. How we react, in turn, is a function of how we perceive ourselves. When we perceive us just as isolated and alone - apart from the world instead of a part of TI-entonces we are feel chronically stressed. Stress Chronicle, in turn, can lead to heart disease by its direct effects on the heart and self-destructive behavior patterns that result. Anything that helps us to transcend and transform this perceived isolation can be cured.
