To keep the body in good health is a duty... otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear. ~Buddha
There is nothing complicated to be healthy and fit. Just follow some simple and natural ways to be healthy.
1. Be careful of what you eat: Health food is fresh and without further processing. When it is processed, sugar, salt, and oil are added. These are bad for your health. Steaming is the best way to cook your food and try to avoid frying. Eat less but often to assist metabolism. Eat more vegetables and fruits and drink plenty of water every day.
Never work before breakfast; if you have to work before breakfast, eat your breakfast first. ~Josh Billings
2. Be physically active: To be in a cheerful mood and possess a clear and calm mind with abundant energy, jog, cycle or swim regularly. When you exercise you increase your heartbeats and perspire to promote your stamina. Take the opportunity to walk more and drive less. Your body works better when you move more often. Go outdoors and get under the sun and breathe in the fresh air in nature. These are the best things you can do to promote good health.
Lack of activity destroys the good condition of every human being, while movement and methodical physical exercise save it and preserve it. ~Plato
3. Be clean: Prevention is better than cure. Wash your hands before eating, after visiting the toilet, or touching animals. Avoid people suffering from infectious diseases. Maintain cleanliness of the home and avoid clutter to allow positive energy to flow freely.
Cleanliness is the cornerstone of discipline and the trademark of success. ~ Wes Fessler
4. Be cool and calm: Breath slowly and deeply to be calm. Getting peace of mind is to avoid negative emotions and more material wants. Fill your heart with kindness and gratitude.
I think if you exercise, your state of mind - my state of mind - is usually more at ease, ready for more mental challenges. Once I get the physical stuff out of the way it always seems like I have more calmness and better self-esteem.~Stone Gossard
5. Be careful of your body: You need 7 to 8 hours of sleep to repair damages done to your body during a stressful day at work. A good night’s sleep restores your energy and maintains your immune system .Take care of your teeth by brushing them in the morning and before you go to bed. It is also important to brush your teeth after every meal. Taking regular breaks while at work is a good habit to regain concentration and clear the clutter in your mind. Avoid bodily injuries by not taking unnecessary risk while on the road or be careful while working with electrical tools.
The body is your temple. Keep it pure and clean for the soul to reside in. ~B.K.S. Iyengar, Yoga: The Path To Holistic Health
6. Be happy: Researchers have confirmed that happy people are less likely to get ill. They also enjoy better health and a longer lifespan.
Our greatest happiness does not depend on the condition of life in which chance has placed us, but is always the result of a good conscience, good health, occupation, and freedom in all just pursuits. ~Thomas Jefferson
7. Be positive: Change your lifestyle slowly to regain your health. Do one thing at a time. Just wake up a little earlier every day. Feel the positive changes in you to motivate you to develop more healthy habits.
If you constantly think of illness, you eventually become ill; if you believe yourself to be beautiful, you become so. ~Shakti Gawain
Healthy people are those who live in healthy homes on a healthy diet; in an environment equally fit for birth, growth work, healing, and dying... Healthy people need no bureaucratic interference to mate, give birth, share the human condition and die. ~ Ivan Illich
