How the power of environment shapes our well-being

Mostly, people do say it is healthy food that gives a healthy life, but I say healthy food without a healthy environment is a very dangerous thing because if the environment is not clean or filled with unhappy people, how can the food prepared in such a place be healthy?? How can someone be happy when the environment isn’t? That is why keeping everything sparkling in my house is important, and it is not negotiable. Of course, good energy makes my environment lively, and that is important, so at least I make sure of that in my little way.

Everyone cannot be the same when we talk about good energy to make people happy, but I can always put a smile on people’s faces whenever I am around them, and that is not for them alone but for me too so that their mood in the environment wouldn’t affect me at the end. I know myself more than anyone, and that is why putting a smile on people’s faces is important to me everywhere I find myself.

Anything that has to do with the environment affects me a lot, and that’s probably because I always have mood swings at every given time, so when I find myself in an environment where people look sad or unhappy, I always try to lighten up the place to prevent their mood and emotions from getting into my brain because that will last for a long time for me, so preventing it is the best thing I could come up with.

Physically there are lots of things we see or do that can easily affect our environment emotionally and physically, but because most people don’t pay attention to the environment, we all act as if it’s normal.

Physically looking at someone getting emotional can make me cry for the rest of the day, so I avoid that a lot; even watching movies that deal with emotional stuff affects me, so instead of that, I prefer watching action movies—at least there are no strings attached.

There was a time I was always there for my family, my siblings—all they just needed to do was put a call through to me, and boom, I was there looking out for them, but everything changed when I had a baby. I discovered that my environment changed. I no longer have the same energy to run around for everyone. All I wanted was to give my baby the best life he could ever want, and then I also found myself playing a lot more than before. Even when I felt like giving up, I just looked at him, and his pure smile lit up my entire heart, which gave me more happiness to keep going.

Such things make our environment lovely and special because having him is like a dream come true, so ever since he came into my life, I never wanted a sad day or something that would put the fresh air in my environment away since I wasn’t planning on raising a sad kid.

I don’t joke with my health, and that is why I make sure my environment is lit up always since I get affected by people’s behavior and mood.
