Take care of others.<\/strong> We should make sure we look after the people around us. Once we are past the initial phase of selfishness and self-pity and start helping and caring for others, then we build confidence in our own powers, create a feeling of community and help to overcome loneliness. This is one of the positive effects of the pandemic that we should now promote and continue in the future, too. Civil commitment, the willingness to donate, sharing knowledge and experience altruistically \u2026 all these things bring us closer together and create a spirit of community.<\/p>\r\n Take deep breaths.<\/strong> In moments of anxiety, breathing is an important ally to regain our inner balance. Breathing is fundamental and at the same time an effective instrument to reduce anxiety. So take a minute to close your eyes and focus your entire attention on the air entering and leaving your lungs. Breathing can help prevent anxiety attacks, in just the same way as breathing wrongly can trigger them. Learn to meditate, take part in a mindfulness seminar, practice yoga \u2026 They may be new to many of us, but these activities strengthen our resilience \u2013 even if we only devote five minutes of the day to them.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Remember, OUR LIFE IS IN CONSTANT FLUX,<\/strong> and this difficult period will also pass. In the history of mankind, there have been wars, pandemics, famine \u2026, they all started and they were all over at some point. Just remembering that there is a time for and an end to everything gives us hope. During fasting, the body develops its self-healing powers. This alone makes it more resistant to illnesses. If we devote our time and our consciousness beyond this to boosting our spirit, then we multiply the positive effects of fasting. <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n![\"Resilienz](\"https:\/\/www.buchinger-wilhelmi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Resilienz.jpg\")

Life has its good and bad moments. If we take this thought to heart, we can put the bad things into perspective and enjoy the good things more, because we know that nothing stays as it is.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nHow do we strengthen resilience at Buchinger Wilhelmi?<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Traditionally, fasting comprises three dimensions: a physical dimension (abstaining from food), a social dimension (giving alms) and a spiritual dimension (prayer). If we practice fasting in all three dimensions, we experience a truly beneficial inner change \u2013 something that Dr. Buchinger called \u201cmetanoia\u201d.
That is the goal we pursue at our Buchinger Wilhelmi clinics, to ensure that our patients\u2019 healing process is as comprehensive as possible, not only on a physical, but also on a spiritual and emotional level.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
