When we look around us, we see a lot of amazing things and that include other human beings. Would these things exist without man’s need for these things? Sometimes, we see them as unnecessary, not a basic requirement for existence, or as something that we can actually do without. The days that we are living for measure the importance of these things surrounding us. Maybe these items or people are really needed for us to survive or to support life. Or maybe, they are there to give us comfort and relaxation.
Basically, man has five basic needs which these amazing things we see around us provide for. These five basic needs are the ones that make man live, the ones that enable him to relate confidently with others. These needs enumerated below would be a modern interpretation of Maslow’s hierarchy. Each one, however, may include in its purpose some aspects found in other needs labeled by Maslow. The following are the five basic needs of man:
1. Food – This is what makes humans live and grow so he can function and fulfill his purpose here on earth. Food enables humans to move and think for his own benefit and for the benefit of others.
2. Shelter – Man needs something where he can abode not only for rest but more on for his protection and security. He needs to protect himself from the wild, the elements, and even from his co-human beings.
3. Clothing – Society has evolved from the prehistoric humans until the present, yet even prehistoric man needed something to cover his body for protection against the environment. These would be the harmful factors like the cold, the burning heat, insect bites, thorns and splinters, etc. Nowadays, a prime reason for clothing is to conform to the social cause of dressing to avoid sexual immorality. The second reason would be to uplift his self-esteem in a world dictated by fashion.
4. Spiritual – With the catastrophes and an unpredictable economic status around the world, man needs a strength to hope on. He needs someone bigger than what he sees who can help him, hopefully, in the midst of problems arising in these times.
5. Friends – Friends provide the boost a man needs in order to face reality. Friends give man the strength, love, and “cushion” he needs in good times and bad times. Friends stabilize the emotional turmoil man may encounter in his life.
All these needs answer to the necessities of man in order for him to live on a leveled status, contentment and a healthy body. But, aside from these five factors one aspect a person should have in his lifetime in order to stay fit and healthy is a good chiropractor as an alternative medicine. Taking medications often may not be good for your kidney and liver; and using chiropractic to heal your ailments is a good idea.
