CURATIVE SPA HYDROTHERAPY in the Hyperthermal Radioactive and Sulfuric
Mineral Hot Springs, and EUDAEMONIA.

I am addicted to CURATIVE SPA HYDROTHERAPY in the Hyperthermal
Radioactive and Sulfuric Mineral Hot Springs.

They have a benign influence on the human psychism.

It is argued from psychiatrists, that the bathers coming

out from the swimming-pool feel a feeling pleasantly paradoxical,
which is named 'Eudaemonia'. ( 'Ευδαιμονία' in Greek language ).

( After the psychiatrists Dr. Charalampos Stoforos,

from Trikala, Greece, and from Dr. Hagen Rabes,

from London, England ).

Eudaemonia, the good life, which is what Aristotle meant by the
pursuit of happiness. He did not mean smiling a lot and giggling.
Aristotle talks about the pleasures of contemplation and the pleasures
of good conversation. Aristotle is not talking about raw feeling,
about thrills, about orgasms. Aristotle is talking about, when one has
a good conversation, when one contemplates well. When one is in
eudaemonia, time stops. You feel completely at home. Self-
consciousness is blocked. You're one with the music.
The good life consists of the roots that lead to flow. It consists of
first knowing what your signature strengths are and then recrafting
your life to use them more — recrafting your work, your romance, your
friendships, your leisure, and your parenting to deploy the things
you're best at. What you get out of that is not the propensity to
giggle a lot; what you get is flow, and the more you deploy your
highest strengths the more flow you get in life.

Eudaimonia

Eudaimonia (Greek: ευδαιμονία) is a classical Greek word commonly
translated as 'happiness'. Etymologically, it consists of the word
"eu" ("good" or "well being") and "daimōn" ("spirit" or "minor deity",
used by extension to mean one's lot or fortune). Although popular
usage of the term happiness refers to a state of mind, related to joy
or pleasure, eudaimonia rarely has such connotations, and the less
subjective "human flourishing" is often preferred as a translation.
Greek philosophy
Socrates' philosophy, as it is represented in Plato's early dialogues,
contains two related claims about eudaimonia. The first is the strong
inter-dependence of eudaimonia, virtue (aretē), and knowledge
(epistemē): virtue is a sort of knowledge, perhaps 'knowledge of good
and evil', and it is this knowledge that is required to reach the
ultimate good, with eudaimonia being the prime candidate for this
ultimate good. The second, sometimes called "psychological
eudaimonism" or "Socratic intellectualism", is the claim that the
ultimate good, eudaimonia, is what all human desires and actions aim
to achieve.
Plato's middle dialogues present a somewhat different position. In the
Republic, we find a moral psychology more complex than psychological
eudaimonism: we do not only desire our ultimate good, rather the soul,
or mind, has three motivating parts - a rational, spirited
(approximately, emotional), and appetitive part - and each of these
parts have their own desired ends. Eudaimonia, then, is not simply
acquired through knowledge, it requires the correct psychic ordering
of this tripartite soul: the rational part must govern the spirited
and appetitive part, thereby correctly leading all desires and actions
to eudaimonia and the principal constituent of eudaimonia, virtue.
According to Aristotle, the hierarchy of human purposes aim at
eudaimonia as the highest, most inclusive end. This is the end that
everyone in fact aims at, and it is the only end towards which it is
worth undertaking means. Eudaimonia is constituted, according to
Aristotle, not by honor, or wealth, or power, but by rational activity
in accordance with virtue over a complete life. Such activity
manifests the virtues of character, including courage, honesty, pride,
friendliness, and wittiness; the intellectual virtues, such as
rationality in judgment; and non-sacrificial (i.e. mutually
beneficial) friendships and scientific knowledge (knowledge of things
that are fundamental and/or unchanging is the best).
Epicurus agrees with Aristotle that happiness (eudaimonia) is the
highest good. However, unlike Aristotle, he identifies happiness with
pleasure. Epicurus presents two main arguments. The first defends the
claim that pleasure is the only thing that people do, as a matter of
fact, value for its own sake. The second, which fits in well with
Epicurus' empiricism, supposedly lies in one's introspective
experience: one immediately perceives that pleasure is good and that
pain is bad, in the same way that one immediately perceives that fire
is hot. Thus, as something immediately apparent, no further argument
is needed to show the goodness of pleasure or the badness of pain.
Although all pleasures are good and all pains evil, Epicurus does not
believe that all pleasures are choiceworthy or all pains
unchoiceworthy. Instead, one should calculate what is in one's long-
term self-interest, and forgo what will bring pleasure in the short-
term if doing so will ultimately lead to greater pleasure in the long-
term.
