What sense of ritual in life can double happiness?

What do Valentine's Day, Christmas, Spring Festival, date day and wedding anniversary have in common? A sense of ceremony. Ritual sense is defined as "the details that are repeated repeatedly in the heart when doing something". If the sense of ritual is introduced into our life, it can include: the time to get up, the way to brush your teeth and the route to work-get it!

The origin of the ceremony can be traced back to the "Zhou Gong Li" three thousand years ago. The appearance of ceremonies can give more meaning to life and help us celebrate the harvest. In history, rituals have been integrated into all aspects of life. If you have an almanac at hand, you can see different rituals about eating, drinking, washing, hunting and ploughing. In the history of the past thousands of years, these rituals in life have brought stability, calm and security to our ancestors.

Unfortunately, there were two world wars in the first half of last century, and the cold war broke out in the second half. Some of our fine traditions were lost in the confrontation. Human's fear of the earth has greatly promoted the study of outer space. In the 2 1 century, many people began to wake up from this anxiety and study how to integrate tradition into the increasingly impersonal modern life.

If you want to live a more comfortable life, enjoy the fun of life and feel good interpersonal communication, the following seven simple life etiquette can help you.

1, set up a wake-up ceremony to prepare for the day's work and life. For example, after getting up early, read some books, walk the dog, exercise, write something or play an instrument-what you do is not the most important, what matters is that this time belongs to you and what you choose to do, and you will not consider anything else. In this way, you can have some time to yourself every day, and you won't be bored because you are too busy.

When I arrived at the office, I attended a ceremony to start work. For example: pour yourself a cup of coffee, check your email, see what appointments you have, and give yourself 15 minutes to read and reply to important emails. At this time, mute the phone to avoid interference. You can also set today's work goals, or set next week's work goals ... everyone can decide the ceremony according to their own preferences.

3, at work, actively contact with colleagues, don't let all sorts of trivial things isolate yourself, especially at lunch time, you can chat with colleagues. If you encounter difficulties in your work, you need the help of your colleagues. You can also join some close and convenient communities, participate in activities regularly and expand your social circle.

4. There must be an efficient ceremony at work. For example, check your mailbox only three times a day. Organize the files on the desktop, and delete unnecessary materials as soon as possible or store them in a special folder. Set the "Do Not Disturb" period. Making a rest plan and taking a rest every one and a half hours can improve work efficiency and be very beneficial to health.

5. Welcome the weekend ceremony. On every busy weekend, go to a movie and participate in activities with friends or family. Go to the gym or gym to get rid of fatigue for a week. The key is to arrange time to do something special and reward yourself for completing a week's work This can help you eliminate the tension of the week and find the desire and motivation to move forward.

6. Create a ceremony for family life to make the rest time easier. Besides housework, you must take part in games, exercise, get along with family and friends and be alone.

7. Establish a self-care ceremony. Remember that the key to this ceremony is to put yourself first. If you think this is a bit selfish, please think about the scene on the plane. If there is danger, parents will wear oxygen masks first, and then they can help their children and others. If you feel tired, anxious and angry, it may not be good for anyone. Therefore, we must learn to care about ourselves and give ourselves enough time. For example, have enough rest and time to do what you like … walking, yoga, fitness, swimming, paper cutting, playing guitar, riding a bike, reading … to make yourself happy.
