Why are you not relaxed and happy??

If you are not relaxed means you are tensed and when you are tensed your heart rate and blood pressure rise, thereโ€™s reduced blood flow to the heart and your body produces higher levels of cortisol, a stress hormone. Over time, these effects lead to heart disease.

Our life is full of worries, pains and sorrows. Also, it is full of unlimited unrealistic wishes, or sometimes possible wishes but realising such wishes needs sleepless, tireless efforts.

How to be relaxed??

The root and key of relaxation is being satisfied with what we have.

๐Ÿ‘ˆ Are you satisfied?!!

๐Ÿ‘ˆ Are you satisfied with your  gender??!!!

๐Ÿ‘ˆ Are you satisfied with your appearance??!!

๐Ÿ‘ˆ Are you satisfied with yourself?!!

๐Ÿ‘ˆ Are you satisfied with your life?!!

๐Ÿ‘ˆ *Are you satisfied with God?!!*

Unfortunately, one of the reasons for unhappiness in our contemporary life is the absence of a word: *satisfaction*. No one is satisfied with his condition, which he didnโ€™t create and canโ€™t even change.

๐Ÿ‘ˆ the rich are not satisfied and the poor are not satisfied..

๐Ÿ‘ˆThe one who got married and have children is tired and not satisfied..

๐Ÿ‘ˆ And those who are deprived of children are unfulfilled and not satisfied.

๐Ÿ‘ˆ Wives are not satisfied, husbands are not satisfied.

๐Ÿ‘ˆ Mother in law is not satisfied, daughter in law is not satisfied.

๐Ÿ‘ˆ jobless are not satisfied, even the ones who are employed and grinding at work day and night, are not satisfied..

๐Ÿ‘ˆ The one whose wife is a good woman and home maker takes care of children is not satisfied because she doesnโ€™t support him.

๐Ÿ‘ˆAnd the one whose wife, step by step, supports him is not satisfied and complains that she suffocates him.

๐Ÿ‘ˆ The employer is not satisfied, and the employee is not satisfied..

๐Ÿ‘ˆ The one who got a work contract for work outside his country is not satisfied and dreams to be back in his country.

๐Ÿ‘ˆThe one who is in his own country, does not know how to go abroad and is not satisfied.

๐Ÿ‘ˆThe famous is not satisfied and the obscure is not satisfied..

๐Ÿ‘ˆ The girl whose marriage is delayed is not satisfied. And the girl who keeps rejecting many proposals is also not satisfied because she does not get suitable match.

๐Ÿ‘ˆ *Are you satisfied with your Lord and His choice for you?!*

We must believe that we are not creators of the situation. *We must believe that whatever is happening is according to the supreme plan of the Creator*. 

Know that, loss of some people is profit of others sickness of some people is source of income for the laboratories and hospitals. Deaths of plants and animals is life of other animals and human beings. Glory be to the God whose wisdom and power is incomprehensible.

Hence be satisfied when you lose, because somebody benefited. Be satisfied when you are not beautiful. Because of you somebody has the happy feelings of beauty. Be satisfied when you are a girl, because you didnโ€™t decide to be girl and be satisfied when you are a boy. Everyone is different from the others. No one can play or replace the other one. Carnivores canโ€™t play the role of herbivores and vice versa.

Be satisfied with your wife, your home, your work, your car, your college, your specialty, your residence and your situations.

There are people who are not even satisfied with the way God created them.

There are people who are not satisfied with their family, their father and mother, their social status and they canโ€™t be relaxed, canโ€™t be happy and healthy. Those people resort to suicide. That is why suicide ratio is increasing day by day.

Allah the God says:

And it is He who has made you successors upon the earth and *has raised some of you above others in degrees [of rank] that He may test you through what He has given you*. Indeed, your Lord is swift in penalty; but indeed, He is Forgiving and Merciful. 6:165)

Imam Ibn al-Qayyim says:

Satisfaction is Godโ€™s greatest blessing, a resting place for the worshipers, and *the paradise of the world.*
