They say that a person can create a feeling of complete peace and immense happiness in the soul only by himself. From the time of their appearance on Earth, people have been looking for an answer to the question: “What is the meaning of life? How to become happy? And it's natural. Satisfaction with one's destiny is closely interconnected with the concept of happiness, the necessary conditions for which are the factors of well-being. This applies to various spheres of human life and implies a harmonious combination of its individual elements: emotional, social, intellectual, physical, spiritual and career.
Family is a reliable rear
No one will argue with that. Happiness necessarily includes social well-being. Close people who give us psychological support play a big role here. These are marital and family relations, friendships.
The family serves as a support and rear. Herea person is charged with strength and positive energy. Friends help him achieve his goals and enjoy pleasant moments in the midst of everyday routine. The one who does not have quarrels and discord in the house, who is surrounded by loving people who encourage his growth and development, is the true master of his destiny. His life is filled with communication, love, success and mutual support. Social well-being is a solid foundation of relationships and love that everyone wants to build.
The sun paints the earth, and man - work
One of the main factors of moral satisfaction is the availability of work. This concept often becomes a dilemma: what should be in the foreground - professional activity or family? Not only the fact of paid and decent work is important, but also its psychological side in terms of diversity, meaningfulness and independence of work, its social value and emotional climate. Professional activity in conditions of unhe althy relationships with colleagues or management has never brought pleasure to anyone.
He who doesn't work doesn't rest
When talking about work, do not forget about leisure. Doing needlework, maintaining a he althy lifestyle, outdoor activities, visiting cafes, restaurants, clubs, museums, concerts, theater, exhibitions, cinema… This list is endless. Hobbies are opportunities for self-expression, scope for activity, communication with like-minded people and a kind of outlet. Sometimes it is more important than work. Theoretically, we althy peoplemore opportunities to do what you love, but in reality this is not always the case. Some do not have enough free time, others simply do not need it. The ability to choose, as well as the state of well-being, is the determining factor.
Money - freedom or bondage?
In the modern world, a full life is unthinkable without a good income. Comfortable housing, necessary household items, household appliances, varied and he althy food, quality education and even medical care, not to mention rest - all this, whatever one may say, rests on money! The financial condition determines the majority of opportunities in the implementation of their desires. Material well-being cannot be called accomplished if there are not enough funds to meet basic basic needs.
It would seem that happiness is still needed when there is financial security? How many people work all day long with one goal - to increase deposits in bank accounts and improve material well-being! Sometimes there is no time left for family and communication with friends. However, no matter how money is related to the satisfaction of needs and social status, it affects the well-being of a person up to certain limits. With a busy schedule and stress, nervous breakdowns and depression are inevitable. And what is happiness then?
How to attract prosperity?
It so happened that money plays an important role in life. It is not easy to be poor and happy. In order toto receive all the benefits, including material ones, people from time immemorial have honored and passed on to new generations various traditions and rituals to attract positive energies to the family and home. They believed in certain signs and chose their symbol of well-being.
To a new family
The hearth represents the harmony and well-being of the family. In this regard, a very beautiful and touching ceremony is held at weddings. The mothers of the newlyweds pass a piece of fire to the newly-made keeper of the hearth, lighting her candle, symbolizing family warmth. At this moment, sincere words and good wishes are heard, parting the young husband and wife for a long and happy life. Music sounds, lights are dimmed, small round candles are distributed to all guests in advance. Standing with lit lights around the young, everyone says kind words. The presenter ends her speech with a wish for the newlyweds to bring warmth, love, unity and warmth through all the years of their happy marriage. According to custom, the bride takes the candles as a keepsake, as a sign of a hot home and saving the family from adversity.
By the way, a successful marriage and abundance promises an orange. According to Feng Shui, four fresh fruits or dummy should be placed in the family area. This will help attract a future husband, moreover, a rich one. Eating oranges helps attract love.
To a new home
When moving into a new house, superstitious people first let a cat into the apartment. This is done so that none of the residents become a victim of the new building. It is common for a cat to take on negative energy. ATancient times in castles, noble people walled up one of the commoners in the walls in order to save their loved ones from misfortunes. So, intuitively, some older people are reluctant to move into a new home.
Any hostess knows that the smell of pies in a new house guarantees well-being, homeliness, comfort, peace and quiet.
It is believed that a stray stray dog brings prosperity and well-being to the homeowners, and if you drive it away, you cannot avoid trouble. Figurines and figurines of a true friend of man attract good luck. Some install them in apartments and even offices to protect themselves from unkind people.
To protect the house from material problems, a money tree is grown in it. The figurines of goldfish, a three-legged toad also activate the energy of we alth. Another popular attribute of happiness, we alth, fun and prosperity is the laughing Buddha or Hottei. There is a belief that if you rub his stomach 300 times, then the most secret desire must certainly come true. Other symbols of family well-being and good luck in the house are a horseshoe, a cornucopia, an elephant, a butterfly, a deer, a horse, a ficus, a pair of doves, a pair of mandarin ducks.
How to activate the well-being symbol?
In order for the attributes to "work", you need to use them correctly. For example, a three-legged toad cannot be placed in the kitchen (it is hot there) and in the bedroom (there is a sleepy atmosphere). The elephant is placed in such a way that it draws positive energy and all good things into the house with its trunk from the street. When a horseshoe is hung on a door, its “horns” guideup so that it resembles a bowl, which in turn also symbolizes well-being. In Russia, for some reason, this is done the other way around and leads to the opposite - losses and ruin. Moreover, true happiness comes from finding a horseshoe on the road.
If you believe the legend, the Devil in the form of a horse took out one blacksmith and imposed dark thoughts and deeds on him. But he ran into the wrong person … The peasant did not fall for tricks, managed to “shoe” the demon, and then nailed a horseshoe on his door so that the “horned” one would remember the lesson he had learned. So it was customary to hang horseshoes at the entrance to scare away unclean forces.
Chinese lanterns
The spectacle invented by the Chinese - the launch of multi-colored lanterns into the sky - fascinates and sets you on a good wave. People make wishes. It seems to them that even the world is becoming cleaner and kinder. Watching the flickering lights floating away into the abyss of the starry sky or towards the sun and carrying away negativity brings well-being and success.
Children - meaning or flowers of life?
Adults are in a hurry somewhere, striving for something and constantly achieving something. With all this, for many of them the main meaning of existence is children. That's a moot point. Someone constantly talks about the desire to give the child the best, everything that the parent himself did not have in childhood. And there are those who take the position of “giving all the best to children as far as possible”, or even not pampering at all, so as not to grow up an egoist.
To ensure the well-being of children, parents should first of all create a happy family life as an example to their children. When theygrow up, they will repeat the model of the family in their personal lives. There is no need to exist as a sacrifice to yourself. Do not forget that the parent must have personal space, interests and the possibility of self-improvement. It is necessary to create conditions for choice and development for children as well. It is best to find some balance in order to remain an authority and role model for your descendants in the future.
A wise parable
One cheerful sage met on his way a man who could hardly drag his feet, carrying a huge unbearable burden. When asked by a passer-by what he was doing, the poor man replied that he condemned himself to torment in the name of the happiness of his children and grandchildren, following the example of his ancestors. Then the sage asked if at least one of them had ever been happy in the family. The exhausted father replied that there was not, but his grandchildren and children would definitely live a decent life! He received the following answer from the elder: “A man who does not know how to read and write will never teach you to read, and no mole can raise an eagle. First you need to learn how to accept the gift of well-being yourself, and when you know the happiness of life, then you will understand how to give it to your future descendants! Agree, many of us have never thought about it. People do not live, but exist, driving themselves into a crazy rhythm of life.
Physical well-being
A successful and intellectually developed person knows how to maintain his he alth. Useful habits, he althy lifestyle, work, rest and diet. Such people are satisfied with their life and full of plans, they always have enough energy forrealization of their plans.
Conclusion
At first glance, it seems impossible to have all the factors and conditions for achieving well-being. This is quite real, because all components can complement or compensate for each other. Owning a favorite profession, a person earns money, finds his vocation, sets specific goals in life, and some even inspire friends to life exploits.
Moreover, sometimes two lonely hearts find each other in the same organization or collide in the line of duty. Some people in happy marriages don't need companions.
Religious beliefs can help to cope with a serious illness, giving a positive attitude and acceptance of the situation. This only proves that you need to believe and hope for well-being, not postponing happiness for later. It has been noticed that a person receives real satisfaction from material things when he can be happy even without them.
