Calm mind brings inner strength and self-confidence, so that's very important for good health.

The main cause of suffering is egoistic desire for one's own comfort and happiness.

Happiness mainly comes from our own attitude, rather than from external factors.

If there are sound reasons or bases for the points you demand, then there is no need for violence. On the other hand, when there is no sound reason that concessions should be made to you but mainly your own desire, then reason cannot work and you have to rely on force. Thus using force is not a sign of strength but rather a sign of weakness.

The more you are motivated by Love, The more Fearless & Free your action will be.
