It seems that in this faced-paced day and age, people are looking for shortcuts to help them deal with the stresses of life. Instead of looking inward to find solutions, they are popping pills and including substances to their diets to get that extra boost of energy or to calm down. For example, during a hectic day at work, one might go for a Venti coffee instead of sitting down and taking deep breaths to keep up to the piles of unfinished work in front of them. Additionally, at the end of the day, instead of meditating or practicing some natural calming techniques, people may eat some chocolate or take pills to help them sleep. This is alright, if you are doing it once in a while to help with life. But it soon becomes a habit and a crutch, without which one may feel like they can’t walk properly through life.
There are those who are unable to cope with life in general. There is personal life and social life and professional life and the lives of loved ones to keep track of. As a result, many people are turning to drugs such as cocaine and meth to boost their energy, while they may resort to heroine or marijuana to calm their nerves. In the end, they find themselves addicted, and unable to function if they have not consumed their drug of choice. This not only mentally affects the patient, but also can harm them emotionally, psychologically and injure their long-term health.
One of the best ways that you can find yourself living a longer, happier life is by imbibing a healthier lifestyle by eating and doing things the right way. In case you are slowly changing your lifestyle, just cutting out the bad habits may be difficult. So you could start by smelling essential oils or bathing in them, because they naturally change your mood and do not have adverse side effects.
