  • The very mention of the word health immediately conjures up the image of a sprightly, energetic, enthusiastic, confident, and extremely pleasant demeanor in an individual whose disposition never fails to elicit appreciative looks from people of all hues. Needless to mention, who in their sane sense would wish to be burdened with ill-health, disease, and sickness that often compels them to visit a despicable hospital for checkups and subsequent treatment. Given a choice, why and who would make it a point to visit any healthcare facility unless required? None whatsoever. Rather, we would make every effort under our purview to stall the visits. Have we ever wondered and forcefully undertaken endeavours to minimize falling ill/sick in the first place?

  • The bottom line is we as human beings wish to avoid visiting a hospital. The eerie silence pervading in the corridors and the general suffering visible around makes the place a complete no-no. So much so that at the back of our mind, we are aware that the place may also be the harbinger of death, not knowing if the healthcare provided would be effective to make us come out less scathed, or unscathed for that matter. Ever wondered what the psychological churning would be underway for any individual diagnosed with a serious life-threatening ailment and the concomitant effect on the families? Unbearable, and potentially staring at an uncertain future where the stakes are too high, with the possibility of the whole family getting affected big-time.

Health and Wealth

  • Without any exception, if one thing all of us would desperately and fervently pray for is to be blessed with robust health. Not for nothing does the well-known universally acknowledged adage come to mind. Health is wealth. Indeed, being indisputably blessed with robust health allows us to realise whatever is envisaged unhindered. While Mother Nature does her best to shower blessings upon us with what we deserve, the fact of the matter is that the corresponding efforts from our end to maintain our own health demand a certain strict discipline, gruelling routine, uncompromising sticking to established health norms, striving for a better lifestyle, and most importantly, attuning our mind to continue to perform the repetitive stuff come what may.

  • Looking around us would amply demonstrate how we tend to overlook our physical well-being by not adhering to the age-old, time-tested routines passed on from generation to generation since time immemorial. What our ancestors realized before the advent of the so-called modernity defined the present-day world about maintaining an equilibrium between mental and physical well-being cannot be brushed aside- applies to the present-day world even more. For what they taught and left behind holds absolute good even now. As such, it’s incumbent on our part to strive every sinew to not only go through the rigmarole of maintaining acceptable health, if not robust, but also exhibit an uncompromising attitude to achieve the same. Nothing else matters.
