Spiritual Well-being

Aristotle:
“In the arena of human life the honours and rewards fall to those who show their good qualities in action.
The Good of man is the active exercise of his soul's faculties in conformity with excellence or virtue, or if there be several human excellences or virtues, in conformity with the best and most perfect among them.
Men acquire a particular quality by constantly acting a particular way... you become just by performing just actions, temperate by performing temperate actions, brave by performing brave actions.
No excellent soul is exempt from a mixture of madness.”

Confucius:
“Love should start from people close to us, then be extended to other people, to strangers, and eventually to the world
Love thy neighbour as thyself: Do not do to others what thou wouldst not wish be done to thyself: Forgive injuries. Forgive thy enemy, be reconciled to him, give him assistance, invoke God in his behalf.

homesick

Depending on the situation, treatment options for homesickness can vary, from surrounding oneself with familiar objects to counseling for absences that will span an extended period of time. Some treatments for homesickness can include:

• Leaving home for a short period of time before taking leave for an extended period. If an individual is set to leave home for some time, they can prepare themselves by leaving for shorter periods of time, like a weekend away from home.
• Staying in contact. An individual can keep in touch with the people they are most familiar with by calling, writing letters/email, or using any form of available communication to receive updates from home and discuss their new surroundings.
• Staying active. Feelings of homesickness can be worsened if an individual has a lot of idle time to sit and think about the things they miss most. Staying active can help distract from feelings of being homesick
• Seeking help. If someone is experiencing homesickness, they should seek out an adult or mental health professional to discuss their feelings and review possible treatment options. http://kidshealth.org/teen/your_mind/emotions/homesickness.html#

Problem Gambling

It is unknown what exactly causes problem gambling, but it seems to be as a result of genetic and environmental factors. Studies have shown that there are chemicals in the body that may trigger the urge to gamble. Norepinephrine, a hormone released due to stress, has been linked to arousal and risk-taking in problem gamblers.http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/compulsive-gambling/DS00443/DSECTION=causes
