What is health? We see health as a disease free
person having good physique. But in reality it is way beyond just that. Health
is a state of mind and body where one feels mentally, emotionally and
physically fit. One should not limit health only to its physical aspect.
Nowadays having such advances in the field of
medicine, it has become very easy to stay physically healthy. But where we lack
is forgetting about the mind which is equally important.
Since we've talked so much about mental health,
the question that pops up is that what is the way to achieve it? So here are
some ways:
1. Meditation: It
gives you a sense of peace and happiness. Meditation improves the mood and
helps in reducing stress and anxiety.
2. Yoga: Certain
yoga poses like balasana, uttanasana, shavasana etc. helps you in relaxing and
feeling calm. It reduces the strain on muscles and promotes relaxation.
3. Walk: Brisk
walking at evening or early morning can have great impact on your body and
mind. It opens the mind and improves thinking. Fresh air inhaled early morning
promotes lung health.
4. Music: Listening
to soothing music improves your mood and gives you a good sleep thereby
relaxing your body and mind.
5. Having a pet:
Last but not the least is having a pet, be it a cat or dog or any other animal.
Having a pet definitely lights up your mood and calms you down after a
stressful day.
So these are some of the ways that we suggest,
there can be many. Each individual has its own different means of achieving
mental peace and calmness. All means are acceptable till we give equal
importance to our mental as well as physical health.
