He sets forth the six elements necessary to maintain daily health: food and drink, air and the environment, activity and rest, sleep and wakefulness, secretions and excretions of humours, changes or states of mind (happiness, anger, shame, etc).

He points out the importance of spiritual wellbeing and mentions, for example, the benefits of listening to music, dancing or ha
