A Beautiful Mind
Here is a section from the movie “ A Beautiful Mind” . A story about the life of Professor John Nash, a famous Mathematician, who battled Schizophrenia and later won the Nobel Prize for Economic Science in 1994.
Personally, i find the following section from the movie very meaningful and touching.
Excerpt from the movie : “I have made the most important discovery in my career, the most important discovery in my life. That only in the mysterious equation of love that any logical reason can be found, …….you are the reason I am , you are all my reason.”
Mental Health Issues for Senior Citizens in Malaysia
Here is a talk regarding common mental health issues among senior citizens in Malaysia.
The Child within us
According to Eric Berne, even as adults, deep within us lies a little child who desperately needed unconditional love and respect. Unconditional love and respect means the need to be loved and accepted as individuals with dignity and rights.
I firmly believe and am convinced that one of the greatest fears of mankind is the fear of rejection. The fear of failure is common and it is secondary to our fear of rejection or not being accepted for who we are ( our strengths and weaknesses ).
Even though our feelings may not always be rational, everyone has a right to express their feelings and thoughts, and deserved to be listened and have their feelings understood.
Therefore, unconditional love and respect are keys to any meaningful relationships.
Cuddle for mental health and well being
Does cuddling improves our well being and mental health?
The following is an excerpt from an article
“There is a strong bond between the brain and the immune system, therefore what is in our head affects our health positively or negatively. According to Dr Shara BA Cohen staying calm, being optimistic, expressing our feelings and having close personal relationships are all good ways to boost our immune systems and to maintain good health. The good news is that cuddling can make all this happen. We just need to make cuddling happen!”
