Victor Küppers’ decalogue for a physical-emotional balance
During the talk organized by Vitanatur, Victor Küppers revealed 10 simple tips to maintain physical and mental health.
- Prevent stress from taking over our day to day. Know how to disconnect from work to repair; maintain serenity and relativize.
- Take care of yourself on the outside by exercising regularly.
- Take care of yourself inside with reading and music.
- self-imposed illusions
- Follow a balanced diet.
- Assume situations with a sense of humor
- Be kind, a good person and grateful.
- Understand that nothing is eternal and that you have to want in the present verb.
- Rest and sleep well.
- Always choose the best attitude.
The best attitude to be well
Victor Küppers believes that all emotions are contagious, both positive and negative. For this reason, as he revealed during the talk, trying to choose the best possible attitude in any circumstance is a habit that will always help us. According to the specialist, “it is a habit that is learned by force of repetition, but Yes, we can choose our attitude towards situations that make us sad or angry”.
“We cannot settle for sadness or bitterness or a bad mood. We all deserve to live with joy, hope and optimism. But for that you have to do something. It can be done starting by relativizing the problems”, explained Küppers during the talk organized by Vitanatur.
How to take care of the body to be healthy
As the expert in positive psychology comments, “Not sleeping well is a very serious problem and it is a risk to normalize it.” Therefore, he clarified during the talk, Resting correctly is essential to ensure physical and emotional well-being.
However, many people find it difficult to fall asleep. To achieve a restful sleep, we should pay attention to bad habits before going to sleep and put a stop to the stress that we experience on a day-to-day basis. These factors can prevent you from getting a quality restful sleep.
Surround yourself with positive emotions (and people)
Years ago, when a doctor evaluated a patient’s health status, he usually only asked about the symptoms and his illness. More recently, doctors also inquire about issues such as the diet that the person follows and if they practice any type of exercise, because behavioral habits and lifestyle have an important impact on health.
Current wellness research suggests that it would be important to also include questions about social life in the clinical history of the consultant: with whom he spends time, how many friends he has, who he turns to in case of an emergency and what his social support network is like.
At present, we know that Interpersonal relationships play a fundamental role in the well-being of people. Choose well who is part of your network of people, or what we now call “social bubble”, can be transcendental for our happiness.
