OUR OWN KALOKAGATHIA RULES, by Bettina Granchi and Viola Londi
Our Own Rules of Kalokagathia
There are 10 rules in the life of a person to be in harmony with the mind and the body:
1. The best way to start a day is to having a healthy breakfast with a hand-made cake and a fruit juice. The lunch must be based on carbohydrates, sugars or protein to give power, while the dinner must be very light to have a good sleep and a good digestion (two very important features for both the mind and the body).
2. Spending the time playing sport is the best way to remove tension and stress. It’s very important for the mind. Moreover playing sport frequently helps to get the body better, and so to feel good.
3. Spending a lot of time with friends it’s a beautiful way to be happy.
4. Reading many books is useful to learn new things. This is important to get better the harmony with the mind.
5. Listening to music can be salutary to relax, but if the music is too noisy it can be dangerous for the mind.
6. Doing extra school/work activities (like doing voluntary work or helping someone) is very important for the mind, in fact a lot of people can be happy doing something useful for the community.
7. Getting to know new people and new places is a great way to avoid boredom.
