Abkhazian Loners - Clear Mind And Pure Eyes

Abkhazia is a unique zone created by nature for intensive recovery. Three or four weeks off the coast - and you are again active, balanced and not burdened by any painful symptoms. One of the reasons for such an intensive healing effect lies in the composition of the Abkhazian air off the coast. Air is the main treasure of Abkhazia. Rich in oxygen, negatively charged ions, salts and minerals of the sea.

Usually, air in living quarters is oversaturated with positive ions, and there are not enough healing negative ions in it. For example, if in the mountains of Abkhazia negative ions in the air amount to about 20,000 per cubic meter. Cm, in the forests of the middle zone of Russia - 3000, and inside their premises there are only 10-20. Air deprived of negatively charged ions is like food without minerals. It provokes dystrophic changes in many internal organs. The so active influence of the environment explains in many respects the phenomenon of longevity in Abkhazia. If there are 100 long-term residents over 100 in the Soviet Union, then in Abkhazia with a population of 215 thousand people (according to the 2003 census) there are more than 250. In the Caucasus, more than 42% of all long-livers of the planet live, who reached the age of one hundred and More than years. An important factor of longevity in Abkhazia, except natural and weather conditions, is the characteristic regime of the day, the rhythmic alternation of labor and rest, assimilated and preserved as a way of life by the local population for many centuries without change.

After interviewing the rural long-livers of Abkhazia, psychologists established that long-livers tend to consider everything that happens in their lives as a result of their own actions, rather than external forces. Such people are most often found among mentally and physically healthy old people. It is possible that the candidates for the extension of life are individuals who take responsibility for everything that happens to them and feel themselves masters of their own destiny.

Psychological stability is characteristic of the Abkhazian long-livers. And also - a developed sense of self-control. One Abkhazian long-longee explained her longevity with her ability to be tolerant. The woman did not allow herself to be irritated and worried because of petty troubles, and to the troubles the big tried to be philosophical. If something bothers you, try not to get upset immediately . She began to worry "gradually," stretching her anxiety for a long time, in order to retain control, a philosophical approach and tranquility. Thus, she was protected from excessive suffering and stress. She learned this from her parents.

It should be noted that the Abkhazian centenarians are proud of their restraint - all small quarrels and abuse are considered as unnecessary irritation and a senseless waste of time ...

Academician A.A. Mikulin, the largest Soviet designer of aircraft engines and the Hero of Socialist Labor, considered the cause of most of our ailments to be laziness, lack of will, and small motor activity. In his book Active Longevity, he outlined his own system of fighting the aging of the body, which he not only developed, but also successfully applied during the last 30 years of his life.

It depends on us, on our inner strength, whether we show determination and purpose, whether we are able to direct energy at our own discretion or feel ourselves a victim of circumstances. Each of us ideally should feel like the creator of his own destiny. Success depends only on our attitude to life. The same is confirmed by folk wisdom: "How you spend your life in the world, so it will pass."
