This article explores visionary ideas for creating a healthy, wise, and sustainable society. It emphasizes the importance of comprehensive education that goes beyond academic knowledge, incorporating life skills, ethical behavior, and emotional intelligence.
Drawing from my experiences with energy healing and the insights gained from clients under hypnosis, the solutions presented here can help prevent and alleviate traumas experienced by individuals from various cultural backgrounds. In my healing practice, particularly during spiritual retreats, I utilize some of these solutions to promote a balanced and wise way of living. These concepts discussed offer a universally applicable blueprint for co-creating a more balanced and joyful future.
In what kind of country do I want to live?
The short answer to this question is – in a rich country. Many would probably answer this way, but the understanding of what is meant by wealth varies greatly among people. It seems that for some people, wealth is driving a car made of gold and living in a house made of gold. Never mind that achieving such wealth may come at the cost of a view from your window, where a family of ten foreign nationals looks at you from the window of the neighboring house only a meter away. So, a slightly longer answer to this question is that I want to live in a wise, healthy, secure, joyful, clean, spacious country and a country with a rich language. Wanting is important, but thoughts and actions are also needed to help make it happen. And although the realization itself may be pushed into the distant future, one should not let this deter their imagination. I will express such thoughts that I have not heard before or that have not been covered with sufficient thoroughness.
Richness in wisdom
The foundation of wisdom can be considered a good education, which is obtained from home, kindergarten, school, the surrounding life, and oneself. If we look at the number of divorces, the high rate of traffic accidents, the number of prisoners, drug addicts, people suffering from AIDS and all sorts of illnesses, obesity, the increase in of allergies and stress, it seems that there are many shortcomings in education – people do not know how to live.
Integrating life skills and emotional intelligence in education
Although the school curriculum is very extensive, I recommend adding the following subjects:
1. Life skills education
This subject could be included in the curriculum from the first grade, even if only one hour a week, and could include the following:
home education. Children often play house, why not join them, playing mom and dad, doing their tasks – raising children, growing plants, cooking, washing dishes, cleaning, taking care of pets, etc.;
ethics;
non-violence;
psychology;
the art of rejoicing;
behavior education;
politeness;
understanding, compassion;
forgiveness;
gratitude;
praise, giving compliments;
healthy nutrition;
healthy lifestyles;
learning about and growing medicinal plants;
environmental education;
sex education;
hiking and survival in nature education;
orientation;
resourcefulness. Resourcefulness can be developed through various games, and competitions, but it could also be put to earning money. If someone invents something that has buyers, the relevant organization could work on implementing that invention (not producing it themselves but finding producers). The income for maintaining the organization would come from the proceeds of selling the invention, a certain percentage to the inventor, and a certain percentage to the organization. Once the system is set in motion, it will work by itself, benefiting inventors of all ages.
traffic education. This does not only involve learning traffic rules but also getting to know the means of transportation and learning to drive them. For this, there could be traffic education centers in larger cities. Preschool children could ride small electric cars like those in amusement parks, older children could ride larger electric cars on special roads with traffic lights and pedestrian crossings. Of course, the training should also be conducted virtually. Learning to drive as an adult is too late. We have lost many lives due to poor driving skills.
first aid training. At the end of each school year, there should be a first aid course so that during the summer vacation, children's lives would be safer, and they could help themselves and others if needed. Through annual repetition, the skill of giving aid should become so good that we can handle it in crisis situations, with poor visibility, blindly – this could be practiced specifically in a dark room or with blindfolds. We have lost many lives due to poor first-aid skills.
Comprehensive education: Beyond academic knowledge
2. Physical education
This subject already exists, but there could be a physical education class for all students every day. In addition to sports activities, the class could include:
self-defense training;
riding a bicycle, rollerblades, or skateboard;
gym training;
dancing in many different styles;
aerobics;
walking training;
presentation skills;
For conducting these classes, schools should have enough rooms and halls of different sizes.
3. Hobby education
This should also be a compulsory subject to a certain minimum extent, and it could be different for different age groups. And if it is compulsory, it should be free, at least to the extent of the compulsory part. Compulsory hobby (extracurricular) education would be education that the child would start giving to her/himself, as he/she would choose the extracurricular activities. The school would only check whether the number of hours per week or year had been fulfilled. Extracurricular education could also include another opportunity – the opportunity to visit other classes as an auditor. Both the same age group and the older and younger classes. This kind of opportunity could bring the whole school community closer together, which in turn could help reduce school violence. Visiting other schools' classes, especially vocational and university classes, could be beneficial in choosing a profession.
Many families have only one parent. Compulsory extracurricular education would give the child the opportunity to choose an "adoptive father or mother" in the form of a leader of a hobby group.
The duration of school classes should also be reviewed. It seems unnatural that both seven-year-olds and seventeen-year-olds have the same class duration. Making a seven-year-old sit for 45 minutes is violent, and the time for effective learning of the material is too long. In addition, it can cause bladder problems and other health issues. A child's body needs movement, and this is demonstrated during breaks. It would be nice if the school could provide that movement. The break could be called "cool time" – a time when the child has several cool opportunities to move. The gym could be open where they could run, climb, play, etc., and a dance hall where they could dance and sing to louder music to release their tension, stress, and aggression.
How to achieve a situation where different age groups have different class lengths and at the same time the noise of the breaks does not disturb others from studying?
There are several possibilities:
building new school buildings where different age groups would be in different parts of the school;
different schools for different age groups;
all classes are shorter at the beginning of the school day; when the primary grades are finished, the classes become longer;
older and younger students attend the same school, but some in the morning and others in the afternoon.
Holistic health practices for a culturally rich society
Health richness includes a healthy environment, healthy people, opportunities to practice healthy lifestyles, and opportunities to improve health.
Health can be improved in nature, sports centers, health centers, spas, and hospitals. In the latter, little attention is paid to emotion-related treatment options. It should start with the name – hospital, which is often associated with diseases and patients.
For the place where people are born, a name has luckily been found – birth center. If a person is sick and wants to get well, then already the name of the place where they go for treatment should help with that. The term hospital could be replaced with the word “health center”. The term patient, which comes from the Latin word “suffering” could be replaced with the word “healing one” or similar.
With the change of name of the healing place, its content should also be changed. There are enough examples where a person, going to the hospital with a mild illness, becomes seriously ill while staying there or a healthy person, visiting a friend in the hospital, gets sick themselves. A person, who is already in a weak physical condition when entering the hospital, if placed in the same room with a person coughing from both ends, is very likely to get infected with a new disease, because they are breathing the same air. Just seeing another sick person, hearing their breathing, and snoring, and interacting with them can be very depressing. The health house should start by offering each healer their own room for healing, which also includes a private toilet and shower. The bed place should be set by a geobiologist, the room's color scheme by a color therapist. The color therapist should help each healer choose the most suitable color scheme for the room, bed linen, towels, and clothing.
Every health house should have its own center where the healer could borrow comedy films, humor stories, humorous stories on audio recordings, music, nature sounds, and posters for the walls with pictures of nature, animals, birds, flowers, high-vibration children, women, men full of joy that cannot be ignored but would infect with their joy. All of this could be summarized under the term joy therapy.
For people with sleep problems, but proper sleep is one of the foundations of healing, there should be an opportunity to borrow suitable music, nature sounds for falling asleep, and posters of sleeping or very sleepy-looking animals, children, adults. Sleep comes through the eyes by identification with those pictures.
Books, magazines, and newspapers should not be available for borrowing, nor should many toys intended for children that cannot be guaranteed the necessary hygiene in the health house/building/center.
Emotion therapy: The power of joy in healing
Emotion therapy – a true story about the effectiveness of emotional therapy: a couple was unable to have children for years, despite trying all possible treatments. Analysis of the situation showed that the cause could be emotional – the wife's fifteen-year-long conflict with her father, with anger towards him. It was impossible to tell this person that the cause was anger because she probably wouldn't have believed it and the anger could have been even greater. It was necessary to find a way to fill this person's emotional world with tenderness, care, and love, so that anger could move to the background. A small puppy helped. Ten months after giving the family a puppy, they had their first child. What doctors could not achieve in years, the puppy managed in one month.
Love and loved ones will come!
