Simplified Meaning:

Our bodies can be compared to living in a shared building with many apartments, called a condominium. Owning a condo can be great because you have a nice place to live, but you also have to spend a lot of time and effort keeping it clean, fixing things that break, and paying for repairs. The same goes for our bodies – taking care of our health requires a lot of work. For instance, we need to exercise, eat well, go to doctors, and take care of injuries or illnesses. Just like the unit in a condo, you enjoy living in a healthy body more when all the parts are working well, but the effort to maintain everything can sometimes feel overwhelming. Paying attention to our health may seem like a hassle, but it is necessary to fully appreciate and enjoy life without any unwanted problems. Reducing the hassle of our "maintenance tasks" like regular check-ups and a good diet can make our lives healthier and more enjoyable in the long run.
