That was what Prof. Dr. Suhartono Taat Putra, dr., MS and Dr. Taufiq Pasiak, dr., M.Kes., M.Pd. said at Seminar ?Healthy Brain for Healthy Life? held by Universitas Pelita Harapan at MRCCC Siloam Semanggi on Saturday, January 14, 2011. Often times, health science considers the patients as object, though in fact they must be treated as subject. ?It is not only the sickness that needs to be healed, but also the man himself,? told Taufiq Pasiak. Prof. Taat Putra mentioned that happiness would bring great impact on brain?s health. ?Happiness activates 23 genes and enzyme that regulate the blood sugar,? he explained. Happiness can be achieved with gratefulness. ?People who can see the silver lining will see anything happened in a positive way,? he told. Therefore, positive thinking will make the body healthy. Taufiq Pasiak further explained the characteristics of happy people. According to him, happy people are not selfish, altruistic, and love to serve. ?Happiness is different from temporary enjoyment,? told Taufiq.
