WHAT IS THE OPTIMAL HEALTH

WHAT IS THE OPTIMAL HEALTH

PERFECT HEALTHY TREES

A casual look, and we spontaneously say, PERFECT HEALTHY TREES !

The perfect health is reflected in one's own physical appearance and attitude.

A perfect physical health is one of the  important aspects of having optimal health.

HOW TO ACHIEVE OPTIMAL HEALTH

Optimal health includes,besides physical health, mental and spiritual health status.

HEALTH RULES

For developing meaningful healthy habits in life, three aspects are considered here -

• Physical Health
• Mental Health
• Spiritual Progress

Physical health is most important, remember the saying, HEALTH IS WEALTH !

For this sufficient exercise is needed - Surya Namaskara (Sun Salutation), morning walk, Pranayama, breathing exercises, asanas etc. 

One must be aware of own ahara ie diet -  both quality and quantity.  

We must not forget to have atleast four morsels less than actually required.

Sound Mental health  is equally important which is not paid attention to.

We need to be cautious of what we feed to our mind.  We must take care about the qualitative aspect in every media our mind is exposed to ie we should be cautious of what we feed to our mind while indulging in activities connected with reading, tv, cinema, internet etc.

For this one must be aware of what is mental bath and its importance to maintain healthy mind.

 We must remember  that healthy mind ensures healthy body.

Further, being aware of meaning and significance of own sarasar vivek helps in adhering to the attitude of developing meaningful habits in life.

Spiritual Progress - About spiritual practice one becomes aware late in life stage,say in fifties plus.One should get awareness of the same at the earliest to achieve progress on the path of spirituality which is a step to achieve fulfillment in life beyond and above happiness.

Having the above awareness, one can apply these basic things in day today life to be able to have the optimal health status in our life.

WHAT IS THE OPTIMAL HEALTH

According to me, as our sarasar vivek suggests,  person can be said to have optimal health status-

1. if he is able to follow the basic instincts of life - ahaara, nidra, bhaya, maithuna effectively.
2. if he has ability to feel happiness and express happiness.
3. if he is not dependent on medicines on regular basis.
4. if he has a healthy mind.
5. if he is independent both mentally and physically.
6. if he has ability to engage himself in positive acts.
7. if he is able to help others
8. if he is able to go to sleep in time and also able to get up in the morning as he decides.
9. once having awakened in the morning  he does not simply spend time lying in the bed,
10. if he exercises his mind control to have optimum level of food and sleep.

Here I have not taken into consideration the age factor.

So, let us enjoy optimal health.
