THE TERM MENTAL HEALTH has now become an increasingly popular idiom in modern society. Various life problems and economic difficulties have led to the emergence of sanity issues that must be addressed. The global economic crisis is increasingly worsening conditions in various regions, including Indonesia.
Prices of goods and services have risen, even long after The Eid Fitri celebration. There has not been an increase in fuel prices, but the cost of living has automatically increased, especially the prices of basic necessities in markets and ready-to-eat food in food outlets.

Life is like a Ferris wheel, up and down alternately. Just believe in God.
One of the Javanese philosophies in maintaining mental health is nrimo ing pandum which literally means accepting God's gift. This value does not teach someone to tend to be passive and even fatalistic, but to cultivate skills to obtain God's grace without worrying about the results.
There is neither anxiety nor fear that the results will betray the efforts. Man's duty is only to make efforts and accept God's decrees. They fully believe that the best thing is given by God as long as we have exerted optimal efforts. The point is, always put your trust in God.
Allow others to ignite
The second teaching is urip kudu urup, which means life must be incandescent. This means that life must be lived with full enthusiasm, including helping other people in need. Especially in the midst of difficult moments like now. Urip kudu urup teaches us about caring and collaboration.
In this way, Javanese people are connected to each other in a healthy relationship to do productive things so that the mind continues to live in sanity. Optimism preserved in the nrimo ing pandum catchphrase as well as compassion in urip kudu urup have become positive energy that moves the society to carry on.
