Twilight Reminiscences 17- Happiness is\u2026.by Sanjiva Wijesinha<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

\u201cYou know, Sanjo\u201d said my friend Devendra as we sat on the balcony recently enjoying a drink and the evening sunset, \u201cIf you had to define Happiness, it is simply being content with where one is \u2013 and being content\u00a0 with what one is doing at that particular moment in time\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now Deve has been my friend for many years (a friendship spanning several decades in fact, commencing from the year we first entered the Colombo Medial School together!) and I have always been impressed by his ability to express profound thoughts in such simple words.<\/span><\/p>\n

And having over the years seen so many patients, acquaintances and friends chasing wealth, fame and position, ever looking before and after and hankering for what is not, I have realised that Deve\u2019s observation makes perfect sense. Contentment is having the grace to accept that\u00a0where\u00a0<\/strong>one is and with\u00a0whom<\/strong>\u00a0one is happens to be the best place to be. It is having the trust to believe that where you are is exactly where you are meant to be. It is being aware of the present moment \u2013 and enjoying the present.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Perhaps this is easier to accept when we are at this period in our lives where we both are today, having worked in rewarding and satisfying professions for many years and now being able to enjoy well earned retirement. But even when one is younger and working full time, is it not possible to train oneself to live in the moment, to be thankful for what one has achieved so far instead of looking ahead to what one does not have and then scheming and plotting how to achieve it?<\/span><\/p>\n

I remember once asking a patient \u2013 someone who was neither rolling in money nor flush with material possessions \u2013 whether he was happy. He smiled.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI am not only happy, Doctor,\u201d he replied \u201cI am content. Every night before I go to sleep, I recall to myself three things that happened during the day for which I am grateful. I am not a believer in any formal religion nor in any gods or creators to whom I am required to specifically say \u201cThank you\u201d for this. I simply recall to myself the good things which I was fortunate to experience that day \u2013 and this makes the unfortunate events that may have taken place not so bad after all.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

That gentleman lived to a ripe old age \u2013 and up to the time he pass\u00e9d away in his late eighties he was taking no regular medications nor was he suffering from the common ailments like diabetes or high blood pressure that affected so many of my patients. The result of the regular blood tests that I would order for him in the month of his birthday each year were almost as good when he was 85 as they were at 55!<\/span><\/p>\n

I believe that a very important factor in his good health was his healthy attitude to life. Having a grateful outlook to life \u2013 being thankful for the positive things that happened during the day in spite of what may have gone wrong that day- would certainly have benefited his body\u2019s physiology.<\/span><\/p>\n

Research has shown that expressing gratitude is associated with a whole lot of mental and physical benefits. Feeling grateful helps to improve sleep and mood, reduces stress and anxiety \u2013 and also boosts your immune system. Our human brain is designed to solve problems rather than appreciate what we have \u2013 so one needs to re-programne one\u2019s brain (\u201cover-ride the default option\u201d in modern parlance) to reap the benefits of gratitude. Our lives (even though we certainly can have bad days) are full of reasons for being thankful if we only actively look for them. We just need to remember to notice them.<\/span><\/p>\n

Expressing gratitude has been shown to positively influence our brains because it reduces the level of the Stress Hormone\u00a0cortisol<\/em>. It also boosts the production of chemical neurotransmitters like\u00a0serotonin<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0dopamine<\/em>\u00a0that improve our mood and give rise to positive feelings of well being and happiness. When one feels grateful, the brain releases the hormone\u00a0oxytocin<\/em>\u00a0which helps to dilate blood vessels, thereby reducing blood pressure and so having a protective effect on one\u2019s heart. Moreover, if one cultivates a more positive attitude, one is less likely to experience anxiety and depression.<\/span><\/p>\n

Actively looking for reasons for which to be thankful and then making it a point to express within oneself this feeling of gratitude is not a difficult habit to cultivate.<\/span><\/p>\n

And I will follow my patient\u2019s advice tonight and feel thankful \u2013 not only to my friend Deve for his wise observation but also to all of you gentle folk you who read my writings!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
