What is Wellness?

Wellness is synonymous of well-being.

It primarily means being in the pink of health ie is physically and mentally fit. Physical and mental health are closely related to each other. Its kind of related because improving your physical health directly impacts the mental health of the person. We are going to find out exactly how?

What is good description of Wellness?

Absence of illness does not mean you are fine.

You body gives you mutliples signals about your prospective diseases time and again. Its all about understanding your body well.

In understanding the difference between health and wellness, in short, health is a state of being, whereas wellness is the state of living a healthy lifestyle.

Living a  Healthy lifestyle means regularly exercising, eating good nutricious food, taking ample rest and fourth but not the least treating your weaknesses and injuries.

For example if you jog for 30 minutes daily you feel there is a nagging pain in your back and it gets worse while you run. Let understand running is a natural sport for humans.Our body is  designed for running naturally. If we feel a pain on any part of the body it means that part of the body is weak and its needs to be strenghthened.

You need to understand your heart rhythm, if you feel you are not in rhythm you need to stop and see a doctor. Regular medical tests are of utmost importance. The food we consume and the exercise we do the lifestyle and ofcourse the genes we have inherited from ur parents determines our health.

Every individual is diferent in terms of health body and mind fro each other. No two individuals are the same.

Some people have Type 2 diabetes which is genetically transfromed through your parents.

The good news is you can very well reverse the adverse effects of these diseases with few minor changes in diet and lifestyle.

How do you achieve that?

Good question!

The answer is very simple. You DNA does not lie. It has all your medical information you require to know about your health and well being.

It has the information which could help you determine any possible disease you could possibly have in future which you could alter with making slight changes to your food and lifestyle.

With the right diet and discipline diseases like cancer too can be reversed.

Did you know that?

I am sure you didn’t.

Its high time you keep yourself updated to the real facts about your health.

Let me tell you one funny fact about DNA Test.

You need to do this test just once in your life. You come to know your body inside out.

Let me share the case study of Tanisha. She is all of 23 years old as of today. She was this precoccious girl who lived life king size. She loved to play foot ball, loved to write got good drades in school in short she was a happy little girl.

Not so fast mister. this girl just had one issue with her life.

She was having a very debatable health issues. Her parents showed her to multiple doctors but tnone of them could determine what her problems was. She used to get diarhoea every now and then she was allergic to chocolates.  One fine day somebody told her parents about DNA test.

they got it done to reveal that their daughter was lactose intolerant this was causing her to have a stomach flu everytime she ate or drank milk or milk products like cheese, icecreams, coffee.

Finally as of today she continues to live life to the fullest , she is healthy as she could be just with a little tweak in her diet she is good to go.

Health refers to physical, mental, and social well-being; wellness aims to enhance well-being. … The difference is that wellness is always a matter of choice.

However the defination of wellness is optimal, health and vitality encompasing, physical,emotional,intellectual,spiritual,financial,social and occupational wellness.

Wellness lies in all the important aspects of an individuals life. It may be directly or indirectly related to an individual. In laymans terms. If an individual is not happy at work, obviously his financial wellbeing suffers, thus leading to his emotional wellness since he is not doing well at work hence financially he is going down so he gets disturbed mentally, if he is disturbed mentally he tends to affect his physical wellness once that happens you begin to fail badly socially that when you begin to question your spiritual beliefs. thus causing a complete disbalance in life.

Hence its important to strike the right balance.

Physical Wellness

Physical Wellness literally means taking care of our body.

One word of caution. we have now understood the importance of following the path of Wellness.

Following the path of Wellness is difficult. But it is also a known fact that harsh roads leads to beautiful destinations.

Following the path of wellness is difficult.

Wellness is an ongoing journey and not a destination.

Once you achieve wellness you continue climbing the ladder of wellness.

If you feel wellness is difficult! Fine try Illness.

Once you have tasted the sweet nectar of wellness seldom you wouldwaver from your inner peace.

Its like achieving mental and physical Nirvana.

How do we achieve Wellness?

Our body is a very intelligent and sofisticated mechanism. It adapts to whatever adverse conditions you subject it to.

For example Jains, Muslims and people from various other faiths follow the month long fasting.

How do you think yourbody survives that condition.

Some fasts are too intense it involves no water intake as well.

How do you think they survive this adverse situation.

Answer is very simple I repeat my words our body is the most intelingent and  mechanism. Once our body realises that the intake of food is cut off it automatically goes in the fat storing stage where in our body consumes the enrgy stored in our fat conserves.

Similarly when you subject your body to exercise say a 30 minute walk. Initially it reacts but resisiting the change. Aches and pains once it is subject to the same regime daily it adapts. Initially you will realise that you breathe heavily despite just walking for 1 km. But over tha period of time your body adapts. You heart and lungs adapt to the pressure and thus your body gets accustomed to that routine. This is the time when you tweak your exercise and go for a slight jog. Everytime you change the routine your body reacts to it and eventually adapts.

Internally our body is a complicated network of blood vessels, nerves, muscle tendons, skin others organs etc. For the smoothe functioning of our body your heart should be very strong. When a person who has excess fat in his body his heart has to work harder to pump the blood to the rest of the body. When you exercise your heart walls get strenghthened and also side by side you end up burnin gthe excess fat. So your body goes into strenghthening and clensing mode at the same time.

Similarly your breathing improves. Blod circulation improves and mentally you feel happy because when you exercise you body releases a hormone called endorphins. Endorphins make you happy and alert.

So you will realise that you are more alert during the day. You become more productive, confident and happy at work. You begin to value every aspect in your life because you are more alert.

Exercise alone can do nothing. If you just exercise all day and then you eat all kinds of junk food it does not serve the purpose. You body needs fuel in the form of nutrients.

Once you start exercising you start taking care of your nutrition. You consult a doctor if you have any health issues you try to cut down on vices liek smoking and drinking if any.

You see people getting up well before sunrise to go for a run or cycling day in and day out. You might be watching them run long distance like 42 km, 50 km even 100 km do you think they have achieved that strength by runing over night.

Absolutely not! They have achieved that strength over a period of time with pure dedication, discipline and hardwork.

Their motivation is the sweet taste of wellness which they have achieved during their journey towards fitness.

We have seen how Exercise and diet play a major role in your health. Along with the above two elements there are two other important elements which is ot utmost importance for physical wellness. That would Rest and treatments.

Your body needs to recover from the impact of exercise. How does it do that. When you exercise you tend to sweat and tire your muscles. You replenish your body with hydration like water or health drinks and food to make up for the loss of electrolytes in your body. But your tired muscles need to be relaxed so that it could recover for the exercise the next day. So sleep is an important aspect of physical wellness. Sometimes during exercise you tend to get injured so you need to address that injury by going to the right doctore for consultation.  That is also an important aspect of physical wellness. To summarise the entire content Exercise, Nutrition, Hydration, Sleep and treatments are the most important elements of physical welness.

Physical wellness is impossible to achieve if you lack the mental strength to sustain this feat. Let us find out how?
