Learning to live

In a way, what we have to learn in life is very simple.

Learn to make the use of all our physical and mental instruments natural and effort-less, not forced and strenuous.

Use the mind as needed, not as habituated. And let it rest when not in use. Not spinning fruitlessly, chewing up energy.

Use the heart for instant answers, but understand that the heart only returns a yes or no. If silent and peaceful -  yes. If disturbed or heavy - no.

Sync that with reasoning. Think and analyse and understand till the mind-intellect  is content and at peace, then all your inner instruments are working naturally and optimally.

Nutrition is another subject with many fiddly balancing details, but essentially, give the body the nutrients it needs and it will work naturally and effort-less-ly, letting your heart and mind evolve as they should.

Mens sana in corpore sano covers it well.
