Stress. A disease to fight. By doing NOTHING!

Central park trees

Chronic stress can wreak havoc on the body! (1) according to a study.

And how could we get rid of stress?

By doing some things, like yoga or raising a pet, according to another article. (2)

But modern people do not understand that stress is a result of our believing that we must always “do something”. A result of our “control everything” mania. How can we get cured by doing more things? How can we get cured by trying to control the things which create stress when our control-mania is the cause for stress in the first place?

Stop “doing things”.

Start accepting life as a tragedy.

And you will die.

Only to be reborn again…

Still.

Silent.

Doing nothing.

Alive!

Spiros Kakos is a thinker located in Greece. He has been Chief Editor of Harmonia Philosophica since its inception. In the past he has worked as a senior technical advisor for many years. In his free time he develops software solutions and contributes to the open source community. He has also worked as a phD researcher in the Advanced Materials sector related to the PCB industry. He likes reading and writting, not only philosophy but also in general. He believes that science and religion are two sides of the same coin and is profoundly interested in Religion and Science philosophy. His philosophical work is mainly concentrated on an effort to free thinking of "logic" and reconcile all philosophical opinions under the umbrella of the "One" that Parmenides - one of the first thinkers - visualized. The "Harmonia Philosophica" articles program is the tool that will accomplish that. Life's purpose is to be defeated by greater things. And the most important things in life are illogical. We must fight the dogmatic belief in "logic" if we are to stay humans... Credo quia absurdum!
