Spirituality and family health message. Spiritual education in the family as the basis of a healthy lifestyle

It is vain to think that spirituality is accessible only to educated people, people of high culture. The history of all times and peoples shows that it is precisely the educated strata of society, being carried away by the play of consciousness and the abstractions of the mind, that it is much easier to lose that direct power of trust in the testimony of inner experience, which is necessary for spiritual life. The mind, having broken with the depth of feeling and with the artistic power of the imagination, gets used to dousing everything with the poison of the idle, destroying doubts, and therefore we find ourselves in relation to spiritual culture not a building, but a destroying principle. On the contrary, in naive-spontaneous people this destructive force does not yet begin to act. A person of low “culture” is much more capable of listening to the testimony of inner experience, i.e. first of all, the heart, conscience, sense of justice than a person, even if greater, but rationalistic culture. A simple soul is naive and trusting; maybe because she is gullible and superstitious, and believes where it is not necessary, but on the other hand, the very gift of faith is not taken away from her, and therefore she is able to believe where necessary.

Let this spirituality - uncritical, unintelligent, undifferentiated, be drawn to myth and magic, let it be associated with fear and can get lost in witchcraft. But this spirituality is undeniable and genuine - both in the ability to heed the breath and the call of God, and in compassionate love, and in patriotic sacrificial love, and in a conscientious act, and in a sense of justice, and in the ability to enjoy the beauty of nature and art, and in manifestations dignity, sense of justice and delicacy. And in vain would an educated city dweller imagine that all this is inaccessible to the "uneducated peasant"!.. In a word, spiritual love is accessible to all people, regardless of their level of culture. And wherever it is found, it is the true source of strength and beauty of family life.

In fact, a person is called to see and love in a beloved woman (or, accordingly, in a beloved man) not only the carnal principle, not only a bodily phenomenon, but also the "soul" - the originality of the personality, the peculiarity of his character, the depth of the heart, for which the external composition of man is only a bodily expression or a living organ. Love is only then a simple and short-term lust, a fickle and petty whim of the flesh, when a person, desiring a mortal and final, loves hidden behind him immortality and infinity; sighing about the carnal and earthly, rejoices in the spiritual and eternal; in other words, when he puts his love before the face of God and illuminates and measures the loved one with God's rays... And this is the deep meaning of the Christian "wedding", uniting spouses with a crown of joy and torment, a crown of spiritual joy and moral honor, a crown of life and indissoluble spiritual community. For lust can quickly pass, it can be blind. And the anticipated pleasure can deceive or annoy. And then what? Mutual disgust of people attached to each other?.. The fate of a man who, in blindness, bound himself, and, having regained his sight, cursed his bondage? Lifelong humiliation of lies and hypocrisy? Or a divorce? The strength of the family requires otherwise; people should desire not only the comforts of love, but also responsible joint creativity, spiritual community in life, in suffering and in carrying burdens, according to the ancient Roman marriage formula: “where you are, Kai, there I am, your Kaya” ...

What must arise from marriage is, first of all, a new spiritual unity and unity - the unity of husband and wife: they must understand each other and share the joys and sorrows of life; to do this, they must equally perceive life, the world, and people. What is important here is not spiritual similarity, and not the sameness of characters and temperaments, but homogeneity of spiritual assessments which alone can create unity and commonality life goals for both. What matters is what you worship? what are you praying for? what do you like? What do you want for yourself in life and death? than and in the name what are you able to donate? And so the bride and groom must find this like-mindedness and unity in each other, unite in what is most important in life and what is worth living for ... For only then will they be able, as husband and wife, to perceive each other correctly all their lives, trust each other and believe in each other. This is what is precious in marriage: complete mutual trust before the Face of God, and with this is connected both mutual respect and the ability to form a new, vitally strong spiritual cell. Only such a cell can solve the main task of marriage and the family - to carry out the spiritual education of children.

Raising a child means laying in him the foundations of a spiritual nature and bring it to the ability of self-education. The parents who accepted this task and solved it creatively gave their people and their homeland a new spiritual hearth; they fulfilled their spiritual calling, justified their mutual love and strengthened and enriched the life of their people on earth: they themselves entered that Motherland, which is worth living and being proud of, for which it is worth fighting and dying.

So, there is no surer basis for a worthy and happy family life than the mutual spiritual love of a husband and wife: love in which the beginnings of passion and friendship merge together, reborn into something higher - into the fire of all-round unity. Such love will not only accept pleasure and joy, and will not degenerate, will not fade away, will not become hardened by them, but will also accept any suffering and any misfortune in order to comprehend them, sanctify them and be cleansed through them. And only such love can give a person that stock of mutual understanding, mutual condescension to weaknesses and mutual forgiveness, patience, tolerance, devotion and fidelity, which is necessary for a happy marriage.

Therefore, it can be said that a happy marriage arises not just from a mutual natural inclination (“for a good darling”), but from the spiritual affinity of people (“for a good darling”), which causes an unshakable will to become a living unity and observe this unity in whatever way. no matter what, keep it not only for show to people, but in fact, before the Face of God. This is the deepest meaning of the religious consecration of marriage and the corresponding church ceremony. But this is also the first, most necessary condition for the faithful, spiritual upbringing of children.

I have already pointed out that the child enters the family of his parents, as it were, in the prehistoric era of his personality and begins to breathe the air of this family from his first physical breath. And in the stuffy air of a disagreeable, unfaithful, unhappy family, in the vulgar atmosphere of a soulless, godless vegetative existence, a healthy child's soul cannot grow. A child can acquire intuition and taste only from a spiritually meaningful family hearth; he can organically feel nationwide unity and unity only by experiencing this unity in his family, and not feeling this nationwide unity, he will not become a living body of his people and a faithful son of his homeland. Only the spiritual flame of a healthy family hearth can give the human heart a glowing coal of spirituality, which will both warm it and shine on it throughout its entire future life.

1. So the family has a calling to give the child the most important and essential thing in his life. Blessed Augustine once said that "the human soul is a Christian by nature." This word is especially true when applied to the family. For in marriage and in the family man learning from nature to love, from love and from love to suffer, endure and sacrifice, forget about himself and serve those who are closest to him and dearest of all. All this is nothing but Christian love. Therefore, the family turns out to be, as it were, a natural school of Christian love, a school of creative self-sacrifice, social feelings, and an altruistic way of thinking. In a healthy family life, the soul of a person from early childhood is curbed, softened, accustomed to treat others with respectful and loving attention. In this softened, loving mood, she first attaches herself to a close, domestic circle so that later life will lead her in this very inner “setting” to wide circles of society and the people.

2. Further, the family is called upon to perceive, support and pass on from generation to generation a certain spiritual and religious, national and domestic tradition. From this family tradition and thanks to it, our entire Indo-European and Christian culture arose - the culture of the sacred hearth of the family: with its reverent veneration of ancestors, with its idea of \u200b\u200ba sacred boundary enclosing family graves; with its historically formed national customs and outfits. This family created and endured the culture of national feeling and patriotic fidelity. And the very idea of “motherland” — the bosom of my birth, and “fatherland”, the earthly nest of my fathers and ancestors — arose from the depths of the family as a bodily and spiritual unity. The family is for the child the first native place on earth; first - a place-dwelling, a source of warmth and nutrition, then - a place of conscious love and spiritual understanding. The family is for the child the first understanding of “we”, which arose from love and voluntary service, where one stands for all and all for one. For him, she is the bosom of natural solidarity, where mutual love turns duty into joy and keeps the sacred gates of conscience always open. It is for him a school of mutual trust and joint, organized action. Is it not clear that a true citizen and son of his homeland is brought up in a healthy family?

3. Further, the child learns in the family the correct perception of authority. In the face of natural authority father and mother, he meets for the first time with idea of rank and learns to perceive the highest rank of another person, bowing, but not humiliating, and learns to put up with the lowest rank inherent in him, without falling into either envy, or hatred, or anger. He learns to extract from the beginning of rank and from the beginning of authority all their creative and organizational power, at the same time freeing himself spiritually from their possible "oppression" through love and respect. For only the free recognition of someone else's higher rank teaches one to endure one's lower rank without humiliation, and only a beloved and respected authority does not oppress a person's soul.

In a healthy Christian family there is one and only father and one and only mother, who together represent a single ruling and organizing authority in family life, in this natural and primitive form of authoritative power, the child for the first time becomes convinced that power saturated with love is grace. by force and that order in public life presupposes the presence of such a single, organizing and commanding power: he learns that the principle of patriarchal autocracy contains something expedient and healing; and, finally, he begins to understand that the authority of a spiritually older person is not at all called upon to suppress or enslave a subordinate, to neglect his inner freedom and break his character, but that, on the contrary, he is called to educate a person to inner freedom.

So, the family is the first, natural school of freedom: in it, the child must, for the first, but not the last time in his life, find the right path to inner freedom; to accept, out of love and respect for the parents, all their orders and prohibitions in all their seeming severity, make it a duty to observe them, voluntarily obey them, and allow your own views and convictions to ripen freely and calmly in the depths of your soul. Thanks to this, the family becomes, as it were, an elementary school for education of a free and healthy legal consciousness.

4. As long as the family will exist (and it will exist, like everything natural, forever), it will be a school a healthy sense of private property. It is not difficult to see why this is the case.

The family is a social unity given by nature—in life, in love, in earnings, and in property. The stronger, the more cohesive the family, the more justified are its claims to what its parents and parents of their parents creatively created and acquired.

This is a claim to their economic materialized labor, always associated with deprivation, suffering, with a strain of mind, will and imagination; a claim to inherited property, to family-acquired private property, which is a real source of not only family, but also popular satisfaction.

A healthy family has always been and always will be an organic unity - by blood, by spirit and by property. And this common property is a living sign of blood and spiritual unity, for this property, in the form in which it is, arose precisely from this blood and spiritual unity and on the path of labor, discipline and sacrifice. That is why a healthy family teaches a child a whole range of precious skills at once.

The child learns to make his own way in life with the help of his own initiative and at the same time highly appreciate and observe the principle of social mutual assistance; for the family, as a whole, arranges its life precisely on a private, own initiative - it is an independent creative unity, and within its own limits, the family is the real embodiment of mutual assistance and so-called "sociality". The child gradually learns to be a "private" person, an independent individuality, and at the same time to appreciate and cherish the bosom of family love and family solidarity; is he learns independence and loyalty- these two main manifestations of a spiritual character. He learns to deal creatively with property, to develop, create and acquire economic benefits and at the same time to subordinate the principles of private property (in this case to some higher, social - family) expediency ... And this is the very skill, or, rather, , art, outside of which the social question of our era cannot be resolved.

It goes without saying that only a healthy family can correctly solve all these problems. A family devoid of love and spirituality, where parents do not have authority in the eyes of children, where there is no unity either in life or work, where there is no hereditary tradition, can give the child very little or can give him nothing. Of course, even in a healthy family, mistakes can be made, “gaps” can be formed in one way or another, which can lead to a general or partial failure.

There is no ideal on earth ... However, we can say with confidence that parents who managed to introduce their children to spiritual experience and call in them the process of internal self-liberation, will always be blessed in the hearts of children... For from these two foundations grow both personal character and the lasting happiness of a person - public well-being.

In the last publication about the “7 D” system (“Doctor as a Health Manager”), we talked about the doctor as a friend and professional coach who is not materially interested in your illness, which allows you to objectively work on its prevention. Today, osteopathic doctor Alexander Ivanov talks about another aspect of maintaining health - spirituality and adherence to traditional family values. This is not about a specific religious practice, but about methods of maintaining inner peace and harmony.

SPIRITUALITY AND FAMILY VALUES ARE COMPONENTS OF HEALTH

Let me remind you what is included in the 7 D health system:

1) doctor;
2) spirituality;
3) diet;
4) breathing;
5) movement;
6) detoxification;
7) day - night (biorhythms).

I consider the concept of spirituality and adherence to traditional family values from the standpoint of psychological and social health. According to the WHO definition, human health consists of three components: physical, psychological and social. It's about the last two.

Numerous studies of the phenomenon of longevity have shown that for everyone who has crossed the centennial milestone and entered the honorary club "100+", five signs are characteristic: adherence to spiritual and family values, moderate nutrition, physical activity, life in harmony with biorhythms and the ability to cope with stress . This is clearly seen in the way of life of centenarians in Japan (Okinawa), Italy (Sardinia), the Nicoya Peninsula (Costa Rica), as well as the inhabitants of the North Caucasus and Georgia. A very interesting study on longevity was conducted by the American explorer and traveler Dan Buttner, who wrote the book “Longevity Rules. The results of the largest study of centenarians. I recommend that all my readers read this book, which simply and clearly describes the phenomenon of longevity and gives clear recommendations for extending life based on scientific evidence.

Spirituality and following traditional family values is the basis of longevity. Most centenarians are believers. Belief in God allows people to remove some of the responsibility for events occurring in life, which is a kind of self-preservation mechanism of the nervous system. The expression "God willing" is a powerful tool of protection in critical life situations.

FIND YOUR IKIGAI AND LIVE 100 YEARS

The Japanese have such a term "ikigai", which translates as "goal in life" or "mission". This is what you get up in the morning for. If a person is in demand by society, family, or has a clear goal in life, this is the basis of his psychological health. In Japan, scientific studies have been conducted in which it was shown that the presence of "ikigai" significantly reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases, and also leads to the normalization of the secretion of happiness hormones - dopamine, serotonin and endorphin.

All centenarians are characterized by the presence of a clear goal in life. For some, this is caring for children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, some kind of social obligations that fill with meaning and prolong life. Thus, a strong connection with family, relatives, communication and care is another of the secrets of longevity of people. Therefore, it is very important to surround yourself with close people, not to lose connections with the world and to be socially active.

Traditional family values create a calm gap in a person's life, a place where he can rest from all worries. It is known that in extended families, where there are several generations of relatives living together at once, any tragedy is experienced more easily, since everyone supports each other.

MY OBSERVATIONS

In osteopathic practice, I often work with older people who are well over 60, and I can say with confidence that having a family, hobby or job has a positive effect on the level of health of an elderly patient. Lonely old people get sick more often and feel worse. Perhaps this is one of the protective mechanisms for attracting attention to yourself. Socially active older people, on the contrary, may look 20-30 years younger, have a cheerful mood and recover faster.

MANAGE STRESS - MEDITATION, PRAYER, AFFIRMATION

In one of our publications on stress (see), we talked a little about the physiology of stress as a hormonal surge in the human body, as well as the reaction of internal organs to chronic stress. Stress is a companion of our life, and it is necessary to increase a person's adaptation to the environment. This is stress with a plus sign. But what to do when stress unbalances you and prevents you from living and working normally? Unfortunately, at the appointment of a neurologist and an osteopath, there are many patients with psychosomatics, that is, their emotional problems go to the physical level and manifest themselves in the form of an illness, such as panic attacks.

I can say with conviction that spiritual practice greatly reduces the level of psychological stress. The modern world is very unstable - in political, economic, social and even personal life, a person cannot be sure of almost anything, because every day there are events that affect the intended result (be it a financial crisis, treason, a serious illness, etc.). d.). However, regular spiritual practice (be it an Orthodox rule, Muslim prayer or something else) is what sets the rhythm of a person's life. All scriptures call on a person to remain calm in any circumstances and continue to fulfill their duties to God, certain rituals, relying on His will and mercy. Any religious practice presupposes the existence of a society with a certain set of values, behavioral patterns and the inclusion of a person in a historical community that inherits traditions that originate in the mists of time.

In addition, the importance of spiritual practice is explained by the fact that it removes the main fear that sits in the subconscious of every person and is the main cause of all stress - the fear of death. Getting an answer to questions about what is the meaning of life and what awaits us beyond the material existence, a person copes with everyday difficulties and trials much easier.

RELAXATION IS THE WAY TO INTERNAL HARMONY

For those patients who are not ready for spiritual practice, but still want to reduce the degree of internal tension and relieve anxiety, I always recommend relaxation techniques. This can be listening to music (music therapy), going to the theater, museum (art therapy), as well as meditation or prayer. In most cases there is a result. Especially with panic attacks. How to meditate correctly? To begin with, you will need 5-10 minutes of free time, complete privacy, so that no one distracts you. It is desirable that there is a pleasant place, a room where you can calmly and comfortably settle down. The posture is not so important, but in the beginning it is better to meditate while sitting, as lying down can simply fall asleep. So, you need to sit comfortably, close your eyes, relax all the muscles, breathe calmly through your nose. Thoughts will come to the head, “mental noise” will arise, it is necessary to switch from it to an internal signal (it can be your breath, some word, sound, etc.). It is very important. Your breathing could be the perfect distraction. The spotlight of attention should be directed to the breath. You pay close attention to your inhalation and exhalation. If the stream of thoughts starts to distract you, don't beat yourself up, it's okay, just turn the spotlight of attention back to breathing. There is no need to worry that something does not work out for you at first or that you have not achieved the desired relaxation. It is also advisable to meditate 1.5–2 hours after eating, because a full stomach interferes with relaxation. It is important to make meditation a daily ritual, a kind of healthy habit, just like brushing your teeth in the morning. The result will not keep you waiting.

Tell us, dear readers, how do you cope with internal stress, do you use meditation for this.

Sincerely, your doctor Ivanov.

If taken as a whole, then family spirituality- this is a rather philosophical question, and in our age of degradation, many people do not understand it.

Therefore, to begin with, it is necessary to find out what is the spirituality of the family? And only after that you can understand what it is for.

Speaking without any abstruse phrases, in a simple way, then the spirituality of the family is when both the husband and the wife have a sincere faith in God, whom they both try to serve.

Plus, in parallel, a husband and wife raise their children in such a way that they give them an understanding of faith in God and tell them why children need it at all.

You may also have a question: “But really, why do we need the spirituality of the family at all?” In fact, not so long ago, I myself did not fully realize what spirituality is in general, and even more so did not know how it can be applied in life, and even more so in family life.

And the bottom line is that the present will only be if each of its members turns their faces to God, and not their backs, as is usually the case.

The fact is that our culture is arranged in such a way that material values are constantly being imposed on us now and they make it clear that the more you have a house, the more diverse and expensive your clothes are, the cooler you have something, the better you have that - then you are successful and happy in life.

But, as life shows, this is far from being the case, because the whole point lies not in the accumulation of material wealth. By no means do I want to say that we need to throw away all our belongings, sell an apartment, a car, furniture, and go to a monastery for eternal prayer and prostrations.

Here the essence is completely different. Of course, since we live in this material world, we need housing in which we will be comfortable, a vehicle, good and warm clothes and other things.

The whole secret is that most people put it first. And this is the main mistake, because sometimes people spend just heroic efforts in order to buy a cool car or a huge house, or something else.

So, the spirituality of the family is to move the unnecessary accumulation of the material from the first place to the second plan. And put service to God first. Having done this, you will very soon notice that they will begin to evaporate by themselves. And what is the service to God, you ask? Service does not mean only prayers.

Service is the actions of everyone that are aimed at improving this world. For example, when you work at work, imagine that you do all the work as if you were asked to do it by God himself. If your loved ones ask you for help, imagine that the Lord is addressing you.

Students, graduate students, young scientists who use the knowledge base in their studies and work will be very grateful to you.

Introduction

In modern society, the problem of preserving and strengthening the health of children is more relevant than ever. This is due to the fact that very high requirements are imposed on them, which only healthy children can meet. And one can talk about health not only in the absence of any diseases, but also under the condition of harmonious neuropsychic development, high mental and physical performance.

It is known that health is formed under the influence of a whole range of factors: features of intrauterine development, hereditary predisposition, social conditions, etc.

Family upbringing is one of the most significant external factors that determine the development of a child. Parents have the opportunity to develop the personality of the child, based on his individual capabilities, which they know better than anyone else. They are responsible for his physical, moral, mental, social upbringing and development. They want to see their children healthy, cheerful, active, hardy, strong and smart.

1. Healthy lifestyle concept

Today, by a healthy lifestyle, we understand the vigorous activity of people aimed at maintaining and improving health. The formation of a healthy lifestyle should begin in kindergarten. All the life of a child in a preschool institution should be aimed at maintaining and strengthening health. A healthy lifestyle is determined by the correct relationship of a person with himself, with other people, with society and nature.

According to modern ideas, the concept of a healthy lifestyle includes the following components:

Optimal driving mode;

Balanced diet;

hardening;

Personal hygiene

Positive emotions.

2. Modern problems of the formation of health and a healthy lifestyle in children

For a whole decade now, an alarming state of health of children and adolescents has been developing in our country. According to the Research Institute of Hygiene for Children and Adolescents of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, in the modern period, 43% of students suffer from various chronic diseases; 63% have posture disorders; 18% of high school students have high blood pressure. These numbers are growing every year. This is evidenced by the ever-decreasing recruitment of conscripts into the Russian armed forces due to the state of health. According to recent studies, about 30% of school-age children are at risk. After the age of 18, they begin to manifest diseases such as diabetes, hypertension. The state of people's health depends on many factors, among which lifestyle is of great importance: 50-52% of health is determined by a healthy lifestyle.

The problem of forming a healthy lifestyle and promoting health in children is becoming a priority for the development of the educational system of a modern school and preschool educational institution, the strategic goal of which is the education and development of a free, life-loving personality, enriched with scientific knowledge about nature and man, ready for creative creative activity and moral behavior.

Modern society is distinguished by a variety of examples of human lifestyles that every child constantly encounters. This diversity is not always a model for a child; as a result, chaos is created in the child's ideas about a healthy lifestyle and already established ideas are destroyed.

In addition, at present there is a tendency to reduce the health of the younger generation, so the need to form children's ideas about a healthy lifestyle is increasing and requires the search for new ways in the education, upbringing and development of preschoolers.

Today, behavior plays a particularly important role in maintaining human health. Indeed, the living conditions of most people are not ideal - far from all have favorable socio-economic conditions, the environmental situation is deteriorating, psychological stress is growing, stress is becoming a common occurrence in life. Human behavior can affect health, either improving or worsening it. And no matter how great the physical potential of human health, but behavior that destroys health (alcohol, drugs, excessive eating, sedentary lifestyle, etc.) can significantly reduce it. And vice versa, each of us knows cases when, thanks to perseverance and courage, people independently defeated serious illnesses.

3. The role of the family in strengthening and maintaining the health of children

The concept of health is closely related to the concept of well-being. At the same time, the basis of human health is increasingly its spiritual component. Spiritual health is provided by the system of thinking, knowledge of the surrounding world and orientation in it. Spiritual health is achieved by the ability to live in harmony with oneself, relatives, friends, society, the ability to predict and model events and draw up a program of one's actions.

The family largely determines the attitude of children to physical exercises, their interest in sports, activity and initiative. This is facilitated by close emotional communication between children and adults in different situations, their naturally occurring joint activities (discussions of the success of the country's sports life, experiences when watching television sports programs, illustrations in books on sports topics, etc.).

Children are especially receptive to beliefs, the positive behavior of the father and mother, and the way of life of the family.

The priority direction of spiritual education should be the formation of the child's moral qualities, which are the foundation of health. To do this, it is necessary to develop in him kindness, friendliness, endurance, determination, courage, an optimistic attitude towards life, a sense of the joy of existence, the ability to feel happy, believe in one's own strengths and trust the world.

For the formation of these qualities, spiritual harmony, adequate positive self-esteem are necessary, which arise if the child is free from feelings of anxiety and fear, lives with confidence in his security and safety. It is important that as each child masters spiritual culture, feelings of tenderness and love for himself, a mood of special joy from understanding his uniqueness, originality, the boundlessness of his creative possibilities, a sense of trust in the world and people are formed.

When organizing spiritual education, remember:

If a child is often encouraged - he learns self-confidence,

If a child lives with a sense of security, he learns to believe

If a child manages to achieve what he wants, he learns hope,

If a child lives in an atmosphere of friendship and feels needed, he learns to find love in this world.

It is equally important for maintaining health to develop in your child the ability to view himself and his condition from the outside. Self-observation and self-analysis form the desire to improve themselves, allow the child to see and develop their personal capabilities, increase their intellectual potential.

It is necessary to form in the child a moral attitude towards their health, which is expressed in the desire and need to be healthy, to lead a healthy lifestyle. He must realize that health is the most important value for a person, and everyone is responsible for maintaining their own health.

In order to motivate him for health behavior, it is necessary to interest him, create positive emotions when mastering knowledge, let him feel the pleasure of healing methods, use positive examples from the surrounding life, and the personal example of parents.

A powerful source of formation of a healthy lifestyle for children is physical culture. The training strategy proceeds from the fact that the pleasure of physical activity develops into a habit, and from it into a need. To involve children in physical education, a variety of techniques are used, which were mentioned above.

An important task that parents must solve when carrying out spiritual education is to form the basics of personal hygiene: mastering body care skills, self-massage techniques, hardening methods, etc.

It is equally important that the child master the skills of psychoprophylaxis, self-regulation and activation of the reserve capabilities of his body. To do this, it is necessary to develop and improve the functions of analyzer systems (hearing, vision, tactile sensation, etc.), to teach the skills of voluntary control over breathing, muscle tone, imagination, to form the ability to express one's feelings using words, facial expressions, gestures, etc.

By mastering this knowledge and skills, the child learns to control his emotions and mental activity. This improves psychological well-being at school, contributes to more successful learning.

Spiritual education should form the basis of a safe life activity in a child. He learns not to commit acts that are dangerous to life and health.

Conclusion

Thus, we can conclude that the family and the role of the family plays a decisive role in raising a healthy generation.

A healthy lifestyle is the basis for disease prevention. It should be emphasized that it implements the most valuable type of prevention - the primary prevention of diseases, preventing their occurrence, expanding the range of human adaptive capabilities.

The main factors of preserving and strengthening children's health are rational regime; systematic physical education; use of an efficient hardening system; proper nutrition; favorable psychological situation in the family.

Raising children in a family requires certain knowledge, experience, patience and direct participation from parents. Parents should: periodically have conversations with their children about healthy lifestyles; introduce them to systematic physical exercises and sports; participate in health-improving physical culture classes with children; monitor the state of physical development, posture, health of children.

The alarming state of health of children and adolescents for adults gives a serious impetus to teaching children about a healthy lifestyle from birth. And the role of the family here is undeniably high.
