Health

The simplest and most traditional definition of health is that it is the freedom of sickness and absence of diseases fully. According to World Health Organisation (WHO), a branch of the United Nations, health is physical, mental and social well being and not merely the absence of disease. Next to life itself, good health plays an important role in maintaining life as a precious gift and is necessary for a purposeful existence.

Good health is a boon. It is the real jewel of life, the most precious possession of man. If a man losses his health, the world losses all its charms for him. A good wealth of health can be obtained in a number of ways. Different ways include regular exercise, nutritious food, positive thoughts, and cleanliness. A healthy person is not compelled to spend money on medicines and visiting doctors as these things would be useless for him. Just opposite, a sluggish person is another form of hell of diseases.

'Sound mind in a sound body' is an old saying. Healthy persons can work for long hours comfortably without being tired. They can enjoy all the pleasures of life, whereas unhealthy persons can't. The world has no charm for them. They are always worried due to their physical complications. Wealth has no importance for them.

To maintain good health no money is needed. It can be achieved only through our efforts and proper health care. We can maintain good health only if we are vigilant of various factors which affect our health. There are certain things which are essential for keeping our body free from diseases. Nutritious food comes first.

We should take only those food which contains high nutrient. Some consistent in life is also important for good health. We should wake up early in the morning, go out for a walk, take a breathe in fresh air to keep our lungs healthy and in good order, and take brisk walk, move arms while walking and always have a yoga as a stretching exercise. Maintaining cleanliness habits is also important in this regard. If we don't take bath regularly, it's worthy to wear clean clothes, eat fresh food, we may develop physical complications in the long run. Therefore regularities in good habits and cleanliness have great importance in maintaining good health. Balancing sleep and rest are also useful in this regard.

We know that a large number of the waste matter in our bodies are excreted by means of the skin, which contains many millions of tiny drainpipes called 'pores'. Hence, neglecting to keep our bodies clean leads to  choking up of pores  and the waste matter cannot escape. That's why we must keep this important point in our mind and do accordingly.

As we know, Laughter is the best medicine of good health. So, we should keep calm, peace by overcoming anger, greed, fear, envy and enmity. Life of a healthy man is his long lasting wealth. It makes him able to enjoy life to the full. Those who are wealthy may not always be healthy but the healthy people are always wealthy.
