Abstract: Life education is faced with the dilemma of phased, fragmented and one-sided situations. At present, the subject value of life education is "covered" and the practical significance is stripped. Therefore, life education should carry on value inquiry and philosophical reflection, and return to the standpoint of life philosophy. The philosophical foundation of life education shows the beauty of life sequence, isomorphism and vigor in the view of time and space, life noumenon and life values. The philosophical background of life education outlines the macroscopic value landscape and practice orientation.
