2) wash hands frequently (soap better than hand sanitizers), and avoid touching face
3) avoid crowded area
4) keep good 6-8 feet distance from others
5) careful of dirty public items (handrails, door handles, toilet
water tap, door, seats)
6) stay away from smokers and dining people who have higher tendency of coughing and thus spreading sinus liquid

1) eat fresh, clean, fully cooked
2) adequate rest
3) stay positive, align to higher positive energy fields if available
4) be critical reading virus news
5) stay mentally strong against financial and social turbulence
6) remember you are loved by the Divine in the Absolute sense no matter what rubbish human are throwing at each other
7) protect and be the best of yourself and surrender the rest to the higher Wisdom

Stay Strong. We shall ride out this storm together.

家人囉嗦煩惱生，靜觀承擔任運消，解使結，便前行；
同事爭功氣又生，折騰半天覺醒來，無一物，誰來爭；
生活，就是修行。

Close ones complaint emotion rises, contemplate own surrender dissipate, knots untied, move forward;
Colleagues fight credit qi arises, half day inflated but after rest, nothing there, who to fight;
Life itself, is the cultivation ground.

10.2 Confucius eating habits

食饐而餲、魚餒而肉敗、 不食、色惡不食、臭惡不食、失飪不食、不時不食。不多食。

He did not eat rice which had been injured by heat or damp and turned sour, nor fish or flesh which was gone. He did not eat what was discoloured, or what was of a bad flavour, nor anything which was ill-cooked, or was not in season. He did not over eat.

10.3 Confucius eating and sleeping

食不語、寢不言。

When eating, he did not converse. When in bed, he did not speak.

Besides moral standards, Confucius also recommended healthy diet and sleep.  Eat fresh and well-prepared food, in adequate quantity, be mindful in eating and sleeping so we can digest and rest well.   Daoist also pay attention to diet and lifestyle as part of holistic approach to health and longevity.  In meditation and internal alchemy practice, a healthy physical and energetic body is a pre-requisite for advanced  practice.  While in the absolute level the physical becomes less relevant, for beginners and regular practitioners, maintaining a healthy body through healthy food and lifestyle is recommended.
