In today's technological era, it is nearly impossible to refrain from falling ill due to our unhealthy lifestyles. On average, every person has to visit a doctor due to some health issues twice a month. So rather than trying to find modern solutions to our health problems, why should not we live our lives in a way so that we hardly fall ill.
It is better said that prevention is better than cure.
So here are seven tips which you all need to follow to be able to live a healthy lifestyle.
TOP SEVEN TIPS ON "HOW TO LIVE A HEALTHY LIFE? "
1) EXERCISE EVERY DAY.
Our daily routine is set in such a way where our body doesn't get enough exercise in our daily work. In previous times people had their routine set in such a way that they don't have to exercise separately, but our work is like ;
# Sitting on a table for long hours.
# Selling items just by standing and not moving much.
# Writing and creating projects on a computer for long hours.
That is why we need to include exercise in our routine.
2) GO TO BED AND SLEEP WHEN YOU FEEL SLEEPY.
This may sound simple but it is very important to go to sleep when your body is tired and cannot work more. Yoga and Ayurveda also say that we must sleep I night and work during day time. However many people, especially students do the exact reverse of it. They study/work at night by drinking coffee or any other stimulants and sleep in the day which hampers their health dangerously.
Doctors also say that living your life in such an unusual pattern contributes to the development of cancer and other diseases.
3) EAT ONLY WHEN YOU FEEL HUNGRY.
Again this is a very simple idea but many people do not entertain this. They eat a portion of their meal at a specific time whether they are hungry or not. Eating when you are not having any hunger puts stress on your digestive system and makes it difficult for you to digest the food. Due to this many people suffer from problems like indigestion and bloating.
If you do not have an appetite then you should wait a bit and then eat.
NOTE- I am not saying you should not eat on time but for those who do not feel hungry and still eat, is no good for them. But if you set your routine in such a way that you feel hungry at the same time every day then that is the best.
4) IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO FAST ON A REGULAR BASIS.
What if I told you that you will have to work 365 days a year. Means you would not have a single holiday. Will you work?
It is a clear no. You would not work. You will argue with me and demand for holidays because you cannot work without rest. If you do you will fall ill.
The same is the case with your digestive organs. You are making them work continuously without giving them any break.
How can you expect them to work very smoothly?
At least in your case, you were able to raise your voice for your good but your organs can not even do that.
That is why periodic fasting is necessary. Refrain yourself from eating anything but water for a complete day of fast. This will improve the condition of your organs.
Fasting everyday provides the human mind enough time for intellectual or spiritual pursuits. Fasting is just not only for hermits who lives in caves but for all of us who want to have a healthy lifestyle.
5) WASH WITH COOL WATER BEFORE GOING TO BED.
As I told you before that proper sleep is very crucial for your health. So before going to bed wash certain parts of your body that are your ears, eyes, mouth(tongue), face, and body extremities with cool water.
This will help you relax better and you will have a sound sleep.
6) MEDITATE EVERY DAY.
In this era, many people suffer from Psychosomatic diseases. The roots of these diseases are anxiety and depression which nowadays are integral parts of our lives.
Meditation allows you to free your body from worries, anxiety, and depression and elevate your mind to the next level. This will not only enhance the functioning of your brain but also bless you with peace of mind.
So find a simple technique and repeat it every day.
7) WAKE UP EARLY IN THE MORNING.
Once again the old proverb, “Early to bed, early to rise makes a person healthy, wealthy and wise.” I don’t know if it will make you wealthy, but it will certainly make you healthy.
Follow these tips and you will be amazed by the results you will see in yourselves.
