Wisdom Of Wellness: Perpetuity Of Poise Of Purpose
Description:... One needs to be in lasting physical, emotional and ideational wellness. Tips, pills, and ‘shoulds’ abound; still, wellness is elusive. Wellness is largely a function of cognitive ‘poise’ of consciousness. Wisdom of wellness is in being the ‘master of mechanism’, ‘internalizing’ the multifaceted life-living realisms and then, creating a personalized model of wellness. Nothing ‘external’ helps.
Wellness is a function of wider poise of person and personality. A person is in complete wellness when there is an overall equanimity between the physical factors such as income, wealth, comfort, leisure and health as well as emotional factors such as trust, security, integration with family-friends-colleagues, connectivity, communication, stability, sense of desirability and spiritual purpose, etc. We live in a modern complex world, where tangible elements of good life are improving considerably; however, as emotional elements of life and living are largely unsettled and conflicted, most of us fail to hit the road of the perpetuity of poise for larger wellness.
Wellness involves a large spectrum of poise in multidimensional domains – the spiritual, physical, mental, social and emotional. Moreover, the emotional and spiritual aspect of wellness is far more complex as they are the intangibles of life. Wellness is a dynamic idea. It is a goal of life, for which we all need to strive every day. Wellness is not a static state. It is not like wealth, which we acquire once and keep it for long. It requires ongoing attention and timely intervention to the details of evolving social, spiritual and physical life.
Wellness as a holistic notion of physical, emotional as well as ideational prosperity does not mean only lack of impediments to good life, but also having loads of ingredients of good life. For wellness, positivity is far more crucial than simple lack of negativity. Wellness is well within the reach of all of us, yet we all need to constantly redefine ourselves as well our notion of wellness, as our minds and bodies evolve to optimize capacities and excellence.
Wellness is essentially a consciousness positioning. It is not an external or tangible entity, which one can create like wealth. Wellness is a ‘poise’ of consciousness, which is engendered when we have all elements of our life – physical, emotional, ideational and material, in perfect harmony and symmetry with each other. We are ourselves a very complex mechanism. The world we live in has also become hugely complicated and conflicted. The cosmic realism is awesomely complex. Wellness poise needs to connect with all these and then strike a lasting poise. This poise is not static but dynamic, constantly evolving and changing. Only that person can attain perfect wellness and remain in perpetuity of it; who understands all the mechanisms in details and then, uses the wisdom to create a wellness model for himself or herself.
We talk in details here, how the old wisdom still has lot to offer to our wellness needs and how we all can create our own personalized and subjective model of wellness, taking ideas from old as well as new wisdoms of humanity. This shall make all of us to be the ‘master of mechanism’ of wellness.
