“It is health which is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.”

Mahatma Gandhi

Human life is the most valuable gift by God. The precious gift should never be allowed to be thrown away or wasted. No other creature has a similar faculty of ability, intelligence, or wisdom as a human being. Understand that your most precious possessions are not costly mobile phones, luxury cars, or big houses. Your most precious possessions are certain things that cannot be purchased in any shop. The truth is, they are very few in numbers. Amongst your most valuable possessions are- your time, purpose, relationships, and the most important thing, health. 

Health is indeed the single most important part of the existence of a human being. Without good health, there is no meaning in life. So, it is crucial not to take sound health for granted and preserve it like a rare diamond.

Do Not Take it for Granted

Many people take health for granted until they have an unfortunate reason not to. They neglect exercise and then get surprised why their bodies protest when they need to run in a field or climb a flight of stairs. They ignore a balanced diet and then get surprised when additional weight piles upon them. They disregard mental health and meditation and then get surprised why they are always anxious, stressed, and tensed.

You should never take your health for granted and must preserve it by having a balanced diet and engaging in regular physical activity. Apart from these, also go for regular medical checkups. Always maintain a healthy lifestyle and reduce your risk of diseases to enjoy a happy and blessed life.

Be Kind to Yourself 

When strangers are kind, it makes you feel good and boosts your well-being. Likewise, when you are kind to yourself, your body responds positively when you deal with day-to-day challenges. So, take some time out for self-care & self-kindness, and show compassion towards yourself. You will witness magical health benefits. Treat yourself how you would treat a family member or friend, who you respect and support. Do not be too hard on yourself. Relax often and have a good time with your friends and family. These self-compassion exercises calm the heart and make you feel good.

Maintain Cleanliness and Personal Hygiene

There are many novel diseases that are attacking mankind, and it is high time that you start taking good care of cleanliness around you and maintain good personal hygiene too. This is essential if you want to live a healthy life. It is your primary duty to create a clean and hygienic environment at work and at home. Deep clean the inside and outside of your home often. Your home must have good ventilation with sunlight filtering thru windows. 

Remember, with good health, you can spend more time with family and friends, enjoy the beauty of nature, and do your duties to lead a happy life. With poor health, you compromise the quality of your life. So, take care of your health because it is the most priceless asset in your life.
