The document discusses healthy living and longevity. It begins by stating that most people want to live to 120 years old without disease, but on average people only live to 70-75 and often develop health issues sooner. The document then provides tips and recommendations for healthy living, including having the right knowledge, conviction, and willpower to take action. Key recommendations include a plant-based diet, exercise, yoga, laughter, and developing meaning and purpose. The document emphasizes preventing disease through lifestyle rather than just treating illness. It provides charts on healthy and unhealthy foods and positive and negative emotions. Finally, it recommends books and magazines on health and wellness.

By. S.C. Gulati

2. WHAT DO WE WANT
“?”

3. WE WANT
 Long life – 120 years
 No disease, sickness at all
 Diabetes, high BP, joint pain, cancer etc –
NOT at all
 Lots of energy, stamina, joy, happiness

Enough money for needs

4. WHAT WE SEE
 Average age 70-75
 Fever, cold/cough, other sickness once a year -
on average
 By age 50 substantial numbers suffer diabetes,
high BP, (or both), joint pains, stones, fibroids,
chronic cold/cough, etc.

5.  Small number suffer kidney, stomach, liver, eye,
heart problems
 Smaller number suffer cancers of various types
 By age 60 the earning capacity is almost nil, &
medical expenses keep mounting exponentially

6. WHAT IS THE WAY
FORWARD
“?”

7. First of all get firm conviction
that our health in life time is
totally in our hands.
&
We can extend our age well
beyond 100 and also live pain
free, joyful & meaningful lives.

8. WHAT WE NEED
 Knowledge
 Conviction
 Will power
 Action

9. The Surprise
There is flood of literature regarding health &
healthy living all around us in books, magazines,
newspapers & of course now a days on the internet
& TV;
Juxtaposed with this is an ocean of ignorance in
the people we see around us.

10. It is Really Amazing
 None appears to be aware of such knowledge.
 There are other more important issues to be
catered to.
 A few people we see in the parks going for
morning walk or yoga etc.
 The number is infinitesimally small proportion of
people we are referring to.

11. The single most important
responsibility of every individual
on this earth is to keep self full
of health & vibrant energy (Not
merely free from sickness).
IT IS MY RESPONSIBILITY

12. IMPORTANT IDEAS

13. Most people do not die.
They kill themselves by their wrong
actions (mostly inadvertently)
before living a full life span.

14. Much of the damage occurs due to
ignorance of nature’s laws and
where in some cases part
knowledge is available, there is
utter lack of will power.

15. The infinitely small percentage of
people who have the necessary
knowledge at least at the basic
level, and they make effort to
implement it, they live a very
satisfying life i.e. long, disease
free & meaningful.
Infact such people are celebrities.

16. What is health? Traditionally
health is defined as absence of
disease and this working
definition is accepted by most
citizens and even doctors, whose
task is to repair human biological
machine when it breaks down.

17. A actually there are grades of health:-
 Cent percent fitness expected in high class
athletes
 Better health in well nourished people
 Freedom from illness in average individual
 Unrecognized illness & minor illness in
malnourished people.
 Life style diseases like diabetes, hypertension,
joint pains etc.
 Major illnesses like cancers, heart disease etc.

18. World Health Orgenisation (WHO)
definition of health; “Health is a
state of complete physical, mental
& social well being and not merely
an absence of disease or
infirmity.”

19. This definition, however, considers
health a state, while health is more a
process of continuous adjustment to
the changing demands of living.

20. In this context health is defined as
“a state of relative equilibrium of
body form & function, which results
from its successful dynamic
adjustment to forces tending to
disturb it.
Positive health implies, “the perfect
functioning of the body or mind in a
given milieu.”

21. It is the ideal, the goal
towards which people
should strive.

22. Health has always remained one of the
most neglected aspects of life. On the
individual level it is subordinated to the
other so called more important needs
like wealth, power, prestige, knowledge
etc.
Health is often taken for granted and
one becomes aware of its value only
when it is lost.

23. We find today the following
categories of individuals:-
 Those addicted to excessive drinking,
smoking, totally sedentary, overeating wrong
foods; such people generally live short life,
say around 50 - 60 years. Highly addicted will
not go beyond 50 years.

24.  The most common variety which is the bulk of
population eat rich diet, drink sometimes,
don’t smoke, occasional exercise, high ego,
overeat always, etc. Such people live long,
generally up to 75 & beyond. However such
people have the following signs.

25.  By age 50 they suffer either diabetes, or high
blood pressure or both.
 By 60 or 65 they would have undergoes heart
treatment & most likely would suffer joint
pains.
 Occasional fevers, flu, cold / cough etc., at
least once in a year.
 Lack of energy to work long hours or to
exercise or play games.

26.  Third category, of course minority, are healthy
persons. They try to follow all the rules of
eating, exercise, sleep etc. However they are
limited by the lack of good knowledge in the
subject and are unaware of it. They live 80 +.
 Fourth category are exceptionally
knowledgeable & disciplined. Such people
live past 100 years.

27. Further Ideas

28.  Do not carry grudges of the past, worry for
the future. Live in the ‘PRESENT’ with full
focus on ‘NOW’. Do your best.
 A small part of what we eat goes to give us
energy. The rest goes to increase doctor’s
bill. The best option is to remain slightly
hungry at all times.

29.  Train yourself to master the taste instinct. It
is nice to eat tasty food with good nutrition.
The pity is large number of tasty foods lack
nutrition or are actually harmful.
 Remember the law of karma. The laws of
nature are indestructible. It we do
something, we can’t but escape facing the
consequences of our action. Our Karmas
will keep chasing us till we have borne the
consequences.

30.  The action taken in on & off spirit will not
help. It has to be steady & regular. ‘fu;ferrk
& fujUrjrk’ are essential.
 Remember we are totally in command.
Then why not live the life, which the creator
has designed for us.

31.  There are large number of small- small tips
on day to day living, which one needs to
make note & follow. The only thing to
remember is that each is unique and though
there are general guidelines for healthy
living these need to be adapted to individual
needs.
 Emotions of BLAME and SELF-PITY are
deadliest poisons. So guard against these
with nectar of LOVE & HOPE.

32. Basic areas to be tackled
 Diet & nutrition
 Oxygen, Air, Water
 Inner Cleansing (positivities and negativities)
 Yoga & Meditation
 Exercise, games
 Fun, laughter, joy
 Ownership for own health
 Love
