Healthy Living habits

          Healthier Life

According to Maharishi Sushruta,

       A person who has equal amounts of vata, pitta and kapha, whose digestive system is balanced, whose seven metals are balanced, whose body excretes waste properly, and whose soul, senses and mind are happy, is called a healthy person.

    In this way, only a healthy person can live a happy life.

   Along with this, to lead a happy life, a person should follow the following rules which are as follows---

 1. One should regularly wake up in Brahma Muhurta which is 1 hour before sunrise.

2. One should develop the habit of drinking water on an empty stomach in the morning which is called Usha Paan. It cures many diseases. Water should always be drunk while sitting and never while standing.

3. After completing the morning routine, one should make it a habit to walk at a fast pace for at least two-three kilometers in the field.

4. Sprouted food should be included in breakfast every morning. This is called Amrita. Because it can be eaten only in sunlight. It contains gram, wheat, peanuts, black gram, fenugreek etc. They should be eaten after chewing them well. After this, milk should be drunk slowly in sips.

 5. Food should be eaten at regular time and food should be chewed well. At least half an hour should be taken to eat.

6. One should not eat without hunger. Salad should be used in large quantity in food. By doing this constipation never occurs.

7. Friends, after eating food, one should always rest on the left side. This helps in proper digestion.

8. Urination should be done after eating food. This will never cause back pain and you will never face stone problem.

9. In between the two meals, one should only eat fruits and juices. One should not eat any heavy food.

10. One must drink at least 3 liters of water throughout the day. Water should always be drunk slowly. Water should not be drunk in between meals. Water should be drunk at least half an hour after meals.

 11. Tea, coffee, cigarette, tobacco, paan, bhang, charas, ganja, sarab, bidi, tobacco etc. should not be consumed. These are poison for health.

12. Any urge of the body like stool, urine, sneeze, burp, flatus etc. should not be stopped.

13. Men should clench their teeth tightly while urinating. They should hold the urine in between and then release it. By doing this, there is no complaint of prostate gland. If there is a complaint, it gets cured to some extent.
