This is the preserved body of Xin Zhui, a Chinese noblewoman of the Han Dynasty who lived c. 217 – c. 168 BC. At almost 2,200 years old, her body is one of the best preserved ancient mummies ever found.

Xin Zhui was a wealthy noblewoman who lived a lavish lifestyle, which included plenty of food and drink. Her health suffered, and at the age of about 50 she died of a heart attack. After her death, she was buried in four sealed coffins buried beneath charcoal and white clay. Xin Zhui's body was found in the fourth innermost coffin. It was wrapped in 20 layers of silk and lay in an acidic fluid that had preserved her corpse.

The first of her four coffins was painted black, the colour of death and the underworld; the second coffin was painted with clouds, animals and deities on a black background; the third coffin was painted red with depictions of devine animals; the final innermost coffin had a silk banner placed on top of it depicting heaven, Earth and the netherworld.

Workers discovered the tomb when they were digging an air raid shelter for a hospital in
Changsha, Hunan Province, in 1968. By 1972 the tomb had been excavated and an autopsy was performed by doctors at Hunan Provincial Medical Institute. The body was so well preserved that the limbs could flex at the joints and Type A blood was found in her veins.

1,400 artefacts were discovered in the tomb, including food, plates, makeup, toiletries, wooden figurines representing servants, and a wardrobe containing silk garments. These were for her use in the afterlife.

Eating for well-being
So, how should all this research inform our grocery list?

Most researchers are only willing to say that diet does seem to influence our mental health in some way, although they’re not sure exactly how. “There’s no real evidence to suggest that one diet works better than another,” says Firth.

However, the big picture is reasonably clear: Try to get enough fruits and vegetables—and avoid junk food.

Supporting that perspective, one paper reviewed the results of another 16 studies and found no differences between two relatively healthy diets. People who were eating a typical Western diet of fast food, salty snacks, desserts, and soft drinks became more depressed over time. But eating a classic healthy diet high in fruit and vegetables, seafood, and whole grains or a more Mediterranean diet—which includes lots of olive oil and more legumes, meat, dairy, and alcohol—both seemed to protect against depression.

Since many of the research findings are stronger for women, Firth does have one further tip.

“If you’re female, then you will benefit from adopting a healthier diet in general and you don’t need to worry about what type of specific diet you’re adopting,” he says. “If you’re a man and you’re not overweight, probably don’t bother.”

In other words, at least as far as our mental health goes, we can stop obsessing about having a perfectly consistent diet—or whether we should go paleo or keto—and instead focus on cultivating healthy but sustainable eating habits. That’s the area where Firth wants to see more research, too, to figure out how to help people make lifestyle changes that last.

“It’s more important to actually stick to any healthy diet than it is to try and go for some aspirational perfect one that’s ultimately unfeasible or disgusting for you to stick to,” he says.

“Are you not ashamed of caring so much for the making of money and for fame and prestige, when you neither think nor care about wisdom and truth and the improvement of your soul?”
—Socrates

Often in life, we witness testing times where we are stuck in a dilemma of choosing between what’s easy and what’s right. That is exactly when we face tough decisions using our conscience.

We should be goal-oriented and focused in life, but that shouldn’t come at the cost of our ethics. A successful person is not someone who amasses only an incredible amount of wealth, but someone who lives by his set principles in life and doesn’t get disillusioned by the wealth so much to indulge in rogue practices. A truly successful life is striking the right balance between a professional and spiritual life.

Is it even a success that doesn’t allow us to sleep peacefully at night? It is crucial to achieve our goals but how we go about achieving them is also no less important.

Today we live in a world where morality doesn’t grab any attention. Matters of ethics and spirituality are neglected amid cut-throat competition. Human beings hardly ponder over their day-to-day activities or take some time to introspect about their chosen path to attain their set goals.

Having clear and effective work-life ethics helps arrive at better decisions and enriches our lives by making them less stressful. While there are many personal and work-life ethics, significantly crucial ones must be incorporated like honesty, integrity, self-respect, respect for others, empathy, compassion, etc.

There are many benefits of leading a work-oriented ethical lifestyle.

Helps prioritize our goals: Having a clear roadmap for our goals leads to advancement in our career. It gives a fillip to our professional life through proper planning.
Enhances leadership quality: A leader is someone who leads others by example. When we are clear about our goals, we can undoubtedly motivate others around us to confide in us.
Effective goal-setting: It helps us to have a clear vision about long and short term goals, our inclination towards various opportunities and our will towards achieving them.
Leads to a balanced life: A person who trusts his instincts and makes the right decisions in life has nothing to fear and lives life to the fullest. A work-oriented ethical lifestyle helps us achieve the right balance in life, driving away stress and workload.
Increased credibility among colleagues: When a person stands by what is right at the workplace, his colleagues can confide in him, leading to increased credibility and cooperation, making it conducive for the team to work towards their goals.
The moral reasoning behind reaching our goals through ethics also implies doing the right thing at the right time at the right place. This mantra, if followed religiously, will not only lead to an enriched lifestyle, both socially and personally but also a productive life that perhaps every professional or student desires.

Never neglect the ethical consequences of goal setting because it impacts our overall psychology. It is the mind and its well-being that matter. Therefore, it must be our continuous pursuit to focus on our goals besides relentlessly working towards enhancing our personality by incorporating value-adding ethics and principles in our lives.
