Be cheerful, be healthy
It’s an old saw that if you keep cheerful, you’ll enjoy better health. It doesn’t take much imagination to see why.
Believe in ill-health and it will come your way. Even witch doctors know that.
When a doctor tells a patient “You have three months to live”, a curse has been placed on the sick person. More often than not it will come true. If instead the doctor had said, “I have no doubt you’ll survive if you keep active and remain cheerful”, the outcome would be much better.
It’s a known fact that people who take out health insurance often get ill soon after. They are in reality making a bet on illness and disease rather than health.
An article in Syntagma explains where the British National Health Service (NHS) is going wrong. It’s run by government ministers who don’t understand human nature.
