Hey mate
Those who think they have no time for exercise will sooner or later have to find time for illness.” A very famous saying by Mr. Edward Stanley-the three times Prime Minster of the UK.
Good morning to all who join me here today on this occasion of World Health Day. We are all aware and will agree with Mr Edward. And the truth is a lot of us are even conscious about the fact that health is a matter of utmost importance. We all know and have heard umpteen numbers of times to have a healthy start to begin our day. Let us face it, how many of us truthfully follow a health regime. I would say just about 20% roughly! It is not a fact but my estimation, it may be low or it may be high, depending from country to country, region to region. According to a survey in America a few years back, obesity was becoming a bigger disease than cancer.
Only a healthy person can enjoy the fruits of his labour. What use is ones richness if a person who is wealthy lacks good health? He or she will be spending most of it either on medical bills or on employing help who will assist them to complete their daily chores.
“Health is like money, we never have a true idea of its value until we lose it.” Says Josh Billings – a famous humour writer & professor in UK University. So very right he was when he said it a century back. It still hold good and will be for next centuries to come.
So before this happens to us, and we lose our health, it is time to think. It is time to change. Who said that change is easy? It is a fight against your own will power. It is after all I who is stopping myself from doing what is best for me. The benefits of health begin with me. So the efforts also must begin with me. The day one realises this he or she will become actively involved in building this invaluable asset called healthy body. It is after all a healthy body in which a sound mind lives. If we are healthy we will be able to work better, think better, live better and enjoy to the fullest this gift called life.
Lastly, I would want to point out, that great health can be achieved by eating healthy, following at least one physical activity every day, if possible, sleeping sufficient, drinking enough water to keep yourself hydrated, getting up early and doing yoga. Yes and most importantly stay away from junk food as far as possible. It is alright to have fried food once in a blue moon, but having it on say every weekend can only damage your arteries. I leave it up to you my dear listeners, what combination works for you. I end my speech with this very famous saying by William Shakespeare
“Our bodies are our gardens – our wills are our gardeners.”
Thank you
