👉When your body feels unwell, what you think to do first determines your outcome and consequences👈

Understanding: Generally, there are five approaches when we feel unwell:

The first approach is to resist; those who think this way are deceiving themselves, easily turning minor ailments into major illnesses;

The second thought is to rush to the hospital as soon as one feels discomfort, which usually leads to two outcomes. One is that you feel unwell, and after the check-up, you're told there's nothing wrong; the other is that a problem is found, and you're told you'll have to take medication for the rest of your life. These two outcomes lead many people to avoid hospital check-ups because they say, "If I go, either nothing will show up, or if something does show up, it’s already a major issue." This is also one of the reasons many people are reluctant to undergo regular check-ups;

The third thought is to start taking medication at the first sign of discomfort, even prescribing medication for themselves. They think if their stomach is upset, they must take stomach medicine; if they have a headache, they must take painkillers; if they cough, they must take cough medicine. Thus, many people have learned to prescribe for themselves. This is truly a case of being a quack; I've found that many people erroneously prescribe medications to deceive their own bodies, trying to block out all symptoms—pain, cough, fever, or prevent high blood pressure and blood sugar. In fact, this is also a form of procrastination; your body might feel better after taking medicine, but the illness persists, increasing the risk of serious and acute diseases;

The fourth approach is to reflect on one's recent lifestyle, dietary habits, and behaviors when feeling unwell. Then, one should quit or change these habits, which is also a good form of prevention;

The fifth approach is to think about how to regulate oneself when feeling unwell, seeking professional help, whether through diet, exercise, nutrition, techniques, or methods. I believe this is true self-care, allowing one to address minor symptoms while also preventing major illnesses, and achieving greater youthfulness, health, and longevity.

So when you feel unwell, what do you think of?
