We all are striving hard, earning a good amount of money, progressing in our life, achieving success, living a comfortable and secured life..
Don’t you think something is missing from our life?
Well, do you think you are living a healthy and peaceful life?
Sit somewhere for just 10mins and look at your life. You may think you are living a hectic robotic life. Then you may say to yourself, that’s not true-I work, I hangout with friends and family in between, I travel to places, I try out new things, I enjoy partying, I am happy bla bla bla..
Well, so many things you thought about your ongoing life. But we never ask one important question to ourselves. Are we really healthy both physically and mentally?
You may think so that you are,but the fact is we can see people suffering from common problem on a regular basis which seems very normal to us like acidity, headache, indigestion, gastric trouble, meagre cold and cough in the morning when u get up, backpain, heaviness in your head etc.
When someone asks you about your sickness you simply say "Nothing yaar its because of the food that I had last night or pollution or climate or change of place etc"
But don’t you think the root cause of all these problems are within us? All these problems arise as you don’t take care of yourself properly. We all have seeds of greed, fear, anger, stress inbuilt within us. Don’t you think you have watered and nurtured all these problems and now it has started to block your life like a big tree on your way that is affecting your growth mentally as well as physically..
Its we who think unnecessarily and hurt ourselves because of others
When we are feeling bad about something,we say its because of the situation, or because of some people’s behaviour or something wrong happened to me etc. We always have a reason ready to get hurt. Its true that people cannot laugh at the same joke again and again,then how come they can cry on remembering the worst happened to them again and again. I understand we are humans, its natural that you may dislike something or you may get hurt. You can respond but never accumulate it in your mind.. Just finish it then and there. If you wanna cry just do it and forget it. Never stock up all the pain in yourself and hurt the beautiful life that god has gifted you. One of the best solution to all problem is talk to yourself. Be strong enough and let the world know that they can never manipulate your life so easily with their words and deeds. You may think how to take life easily? We all live in a society where it is really difficult to take things easily..
While speaking about this a very familiar story of Gautam Buddha comes to my mind.Let me share it with you-
One day,Gautam Buddha was preaching in a village and suddenly one young man from the crowd who disliked Gautam Buddha came and stood in front of him and started shouting and insulting Gautam Buddha. The whole village got furious with anger and was about to beat the young man for his behaviour. But people was surprised to see Gautam buddha who was still quiet and calm with a smile on his face. Gautam buddha asked the people to stay quiet and not to react.
The young man was still shouting and insulting Gautam buddha and then he got extremely angry and asked Gautam Buddha, why are you quiet and smiling? Am I praising you? Don’t you feel insulted?
Gautam Buddha then calmed down the young man and said “Tell me young man if you buy a gift for someone and the person does not accept the gift from you, what will happen?” The young man replied in anger- “ofcourse the gift will stay with me.” Gautam buddha said – same is applicable here too. You are shouting and trying to insult me but I am not accepting it, then all the insult stays back with you, I really feel pitty for you young man. At present you are not hurting me but yourself. Never allow the anger to overpower you. Life will become stressful and painful. The young man realised his mistake and he became the disciple of Gautam Buddha thereafter.
Also here are some suggestions that you can add up in your daily life to make your life healthy and peaceful-
1. When you get up thank God for adding up one more day in your life.
2. Take a big glass of warm water and mix one spoon honey and drink it sip by sip.
3. Walk around your home, do some stretching.
4. Finish up with your morning activities and plan your day ahead.
5. See to it that you are adding healthy food options in your diet.
6. Include more fruits and vegetables in your diet
7. Drink enough water to keep you hydrated.
8. Exercise regularly.
9. Exposure to sun for atleast 10 minutes is must.
10. Do meditate atleast 20-25 minutes daily.
11. Try to control your anger. Anger can only harm you the most,so better avoid it.
12. If you are hurt by someone or certain circumstances stay away from it for the time being.
13. Try to talk and solve the situation instead of arguing.
14. Already you are dealing with lots of people on daily basis. So whenever you get time spend it with nature rather than people.
15. Sometimes do nothing that’s ok.
16. Respect your body and take care of it.
17. Follow the rule of one task at a time, never do multi-tasking.
18. Reduce the usage of mobile phone.
19. Never share your personal issues and weakness with others.
20. Inculcate the habit of giving to the needy and poor from within.
21. Never keep expectations from anyone.
Finding inner peace, achieving peace of mind, is a major life accomplishment—even though it can be hard to feel peaceful, but definitely we all can give it a try and live in harmony.
