The super fast changing world and sedentary life style makes us often stressed up and we fall ill often. The Immunity level drops every time we fall ill. As the saying goes - "An ounce of prevention is always better than the pounds of cure".
Below are seven tips for healthy long life:
In the olden days people had to use their physical bodies for doing their routine normal work. In todays digital world everything is automatic right from eating, commuting and every task you do. There is hardly any physical exercise to your body. This physical inactivity is the main reason for all diseases. Sports, Running, walking and mild exercises added to our routine life will keep all illness at bay improving immunity.
Go to Sleep when you feel sleepy:
Most people stay up late in the night even when their body says its time to sleep. Few people have the habit of staying active at the night and sleep all over the day. The students take coffee to stimulate their body to stay awake in the night. This habit takes toll on the health and is one of the main causes of developing diseases like Cancer etc.
Appetite plays an important role in one persons health. Overeating against your body intake limits often leads to obesity or related diseases. Having an appetite is a sign of good health, however if you have no appetite, then forcibly eating is unhealthy always. Wait for sometime and then eat in small amounts.
Fasting on systematic Pattern:
If your boss asks you to work for 365 days a year, you would get restless broken down and would ask for break to take rest. In the similar way, the digestive organs fail to work if you dont give some break for it. Periodic fasting is very much important for your digestive system to take rest and hence refrain from eating for one single day periodically. This will help digestive organs function better and eliminate all waste from body easily.
Wash with cool water before going to bed:
As explained above, sleep is very important for overall health of your body. If you wash your important motor and sensory organs (hands, arms, eyes, legs etc) before sleep with cold water, will relax your body and help you in deep sleep.
Your body is linked to your mind. Many of the diseases of this era are psychosomatic. Stress and anxiety take their toll on our physical health. Meditation is a mental exercise which, among other things, allows you to detach yourself from the worries of life. Learn a simple technique and do it regularly.
Get up Early every day:
“Early to bed, early to rise makes a person healthy, wealthy and wise.” I don't know if it will make you wealthy but definitely healthy on the long run. Your body just needs enough sleep, not too much nor too less.
If everyone follows these above steps diligently, they would not have any major health issues in their lifetime.
