I’ve never been overly concerned with taking care of myself.
And when it comes to one’s body, that is definitely the wrong attitude to have.
I don’t know why, but I guess I just sort of disregarded some fairly fundamental aspects of good living. Instead, I put in way too much work and spent more time in the office’s commercial HVAC system than in my own. It requires a lot of focus and effort, but I love what I do for a living. But there must be a balance, as I painfully discovered. You simply cannot spend decades working on your butt in a home or office’s heating and cooling system. Health, well-being, and a balanced life must be taken into account. When I was really ill, I changed my behavior. After exerting too much pressure for too long, my body simply rebelled and I developed pneumonia. It was the sickest I’ve ever felt. And I spent nearly a month without using the office’s zone-controlled HVAC system. I made a promise to turn things around and put my health first during that month, though. Unexpectedly, my home’s HVAC system is assisting me in achieving that. The cooling and heating equipment is beneficial for immune function and respiratory health. To replace the cheap air filters I had been using for the HVAC equipment, I installed a HEPA filter. I currently have an air filter that is purifying the air by removing almost all of the contaminants in the indoor air. My respiratory health has improved noticeably, and this has strengthened my immune system.
