The primary goal of the human being is to
live a peaceful
and happy life along with his family and maintaining good health. For
maintaining good health and peaceful life, old saying depicts
“
Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and
wise” But we have either forgotten or ignored all the
principles
and mantras set by our ancestral for leading a happy and peaceful life. Now
days, in this
materialistic world, most of the people are leading very hectic lives.
They do not follow a disciplined lifestyle. They have a myopic outlook
towards life i.e., to earn money and to accumulate all the luxurious
things in whatever way possible, no matter even if the peace of mind,
health, good sleep, family life etc is sacrificed. The unorganized and
haphazard life schedule, bad eating habits are the primary cause of
developing various diseases such as anxiety, hypertension,
sleeping disorder, blood sugar and even
heart
problem. Not devoting the
quality time with family or even being
present at home but due to preoccupation omind somewhere else, ignoring
/postponing the day to day needs of family members, are the main
reasons of dissatisfaction amongst the family members and sometimes may
lead to disintegration of the family.
For healthier, peaceful and successful life we have to change our life style and follow the certain principles of life such as: - 1.Time management 2.Regular exercises/yoga 3.Positive mind set (PMS) 4.Balanced diet Time management To remain physically and mentally fit, and also to avoid overlapping of work at a time, one has to allocate the time according to necessity and importance of work. Everybody must has to follow a time schedule for getting up in the morning, doing regular exercises/yoga, taking food, sleeping etc. Allocation of the time for day-to-day activities will release pressure from the mind and prevent unwarranted anxiety and the person will be able to concentrate on his work and accomplish the same more efficiently in lesser time. Regular
exercises/yoga
It is my personal experience that Regulated life-style and controlled food habits gives very positive and enthusiastic results and can reduce and even open the blockages of arteries. In the year 2002, I suffered from heart problem and due to blockage of arteries I got angioplasty done. After one month or so I was advised for by pass surgery by one of the best hospitals of Delhi (India). But instead of going for by pass surgery I changed my life style and started regular walking, some exercises and yoga. I also changed my food habits and nature. Now I am quite healthy. I get my lipid profile and TMT checked every year and all the test results are above average without by pass surgery. Many other persons and my relatives, who have changed their life style like me, are now feeling much better comparatively. Positive mind set People with positive mind set have a solution oriented approach towards life and thus , are more likely to succeed .PMS makes us assertive,confident and proactive. A positive attitude definitely strengthens our mind and body and improves the quality of our life. Every positive statement-' we are healthy and strong' and repeating the same in the morning will make ourselves to take action to be strong and healthy. Repeating the positive statement leads to a healthier life style. Similarly we must also be focused towards our goal, as being not focused on the present whether we are eating,exercising or doing any work and thinking the next thing that we have to do, may lead to anxiety. If we do enjoy our food, work whatever we do, we will be more productive, less worried and mentally and physically healthier. Balance diet A wholesome and nutritious diet charges the battery of our body and refreshes our mind. A balanced diet includes fruit, vegetables, milk products and dry fruits. We should avoid junk and spicy food. Intake of fats in the meals should be reduced to keep cholesterol and triglycerides in control. We should also fix our meals times and there must be gap of at least two hours between dinner and sleeping time.  By following these golden rules viz., time management, regular exercises/yoga, positive mindset and balanced diet, we can rejuvenate our self and lead healthy and peaceful life. |
