People do many different things to stay healthy. What do you do for good health? The idea of staying healthy is not unfamiliar to us. Our parents and teachers always put emphasis on the importance and necessity of staying healthy. In addition, it is our general habit to send blessing to someone as wishing you happiness and health. What’s more, the escalating emergence of nutritional supplements also reflects people’s strong desire to get healthy. Health is, without a doubt, an important issue for everyone. Exercise is the first building block to live a healthy life. I play basketball very often not only for the enjoyment of cooperation with teammates but also for the great excitement of competition against rivals. Besides basketball court, strength and conditioning center is another place I usually spend couples of hours to stay in. Aiming at honing athletic skills, I improve my muscular strength, endurance and flexibility using varieties of facilities in the center. I also got yoga classes in my schedule. As a beginner in yoga, what I can do in classes is nothing more than expressing my astonishment and admiration to the teacher and classmates for their awesome movements. The refreshment and pleasure yoga brings me is beyond description and I like it very much. Positive thinking is another thing I bear in mind. I am an optimistic person and always look on the bright side of life. I told myself that endings are also beginnings when I ended a romance. Facing difficulties on the way to the pursuit of my goal, to name a few, such as studying abroad or boosting up my vertical jump, I quoted inspiring sentences in “the last lecture” and spoke to myself that the brick walls are there for a reason and they give us a chance to show that how badly we want something. Also, negative comments or sarcastic criticism by others are great motivations for me to prove myself. On the other hand, Instead of comparing myself to others, I build up my confidence via surpassing myself. I understand that people are not born equal in every aspect. That is, people’s talents, resources and situations are not always the same and therefore it doesn’t make sense to make comparison between others and me. Maintaining good relationships with others is also important when it comes to the integrity of health. I make my mind open to communicate with others not only face to face but also through the internet. When I meet foreign students in my dormitory, it’s always fun to have chat with them because they lead me to a whole new world by cross-cultural communicating. Communicating with others means more chance to live a colorful and cheerful life. What’s more, I can alleviate my pressure through the conversation with my friends or professors. I share my stories, emotions and thoughts with them and also get some feedbacks. To put it briefly, I put lots of effort, not only physically but also psychologically, to make good health. I do lots of exercise and live abide by positive thinking. Also, I maintain good relationship with others to paint my life with varieties of colors and make it a bright one. That’s the way I do for the making of good health. -- http://www.wretch.cc/blog/coolmac --
