13 Enlightening Quotes About Life

The root of all illnesses is tension

1. The root of all illnesses is tension. If you can stay relaxed, you are less likely to get sick. Our physical ailments stem from tension, but we find it hard to relax. Why? Because we constantly have worries on our minds, making us anxious. Even when there’s nothing wrong, we live in fear all day.

2. Tension acts like an invisible chain, binding our body and mind. Although we know we need to relax, the issues that trouble us cling to us like shadows, making it hard to truly let go.

3. In life, we often worry about things that haven’t happened yet and regret things that have already passed, exhausting ourselves in this endless cycle of internal struggle.

4. We are always anxious about the future, forgetting to enjoy the present. In reality, the future is not as scary as we imagine. By maintaining a calm mind, we can handle everything smoothly.

5. Those who are truly enlightened understand how to let go of their obsessions, avoid being bogged down by trivial matters, and face life’s challenges with a peaceful mindset.

6. Often, our tension and fear come from a fear of the unknown. We fear loss, failure, and getting hurt. The more we fear, the more we spiral into anxiety.
