Is There a Cure for Affluenza? |
|
Barbara
Reinhold |
In their new
book, Affluenza: The All-Consuming Epidemic, John
DeGraaf, David Wann and Thomas Naylor have created a
stunning definition of this modern affliction. They
define affluenza as "a painful, contagious, socially
transmitted condition of overload, debt, anxiety and
waste, resulting from the dogged pursuit of more." Does
that sound familiar?
The authors provide 236 pages of antidotes, but here are
the five that most people I know seem to be considering:
Take 10 from the Top. Just decide to
spend 10 percent less this year. Identify those
activities worth 10 percent of your expenditures that
give you the least pleasure. Then, next year go after
another 10 percent. You won't believe the sense of
satisfaction (and ability to pay down your debt) that
this simple exercise yields.
Go to School. Whether it's for credit
or fun, fill at least one night each week when you're
usually tempted to spend money taking a class or
self-improvement course, either in person or online.
Learning boosts your immune system and reduces the
likelihood you'll be consuming.
Do Something in the Community. Whether
it's your church, Little League, Habitat for Humanity or
some other group, get out and do something for others.
ReSearch shows that altruism not only boosts your immune
capability, it also decreases stress and gives you a
greater sense of control in your life.
Move Your Body. Walk, dance, run, lift
weights, even clean the house or mow the lawn. Do
anything to move your frame through space. It gobbles
calories and makes you feel much more energized than
lying around or riding in a vehicle ever could.
Get Out. Enjoy the great outdoors.
There is absolutely nothing more likely to restore your
spirit than being outside, experiencing the sounds,
textures and colors of nature. According to the authors,
feedback from thousands of wilderness trip participants
revealed that more than 90 percent of them experienced
an increased sense of well being and more energy, as
well as the ability to kick an addictive habit they were
wrestling with.
Of course, the choice is yours. Stay stuck in your
affluenza, collecting anesthetizing "stuff" and letting
your energy drip away, reinforced by the fact that many
of your friends are doing it, too. Or, put some real
spice in your life, the natural kind of well-being and
exuberance that comes from all of these five natural
magic bullets. |
