About Me

My photo
I am Doctor by profession. Like many of you I have numerous dreams, desires, ambitions and aims BUT most important is to live my life happily and peacefully enjoying every bit of it. Though I definitely want to be successful but am not in the rat-race to reach on Top. I want to enjoy every moment of my life and face the challenges as they come. In my view traveling to places is one of the best ways to detoxify our mind, body & soul. Wherever I go I try to explore the destination as much as possible. Hope you would like the posts...!!!!!

Getting Fit the Healthier Way...

Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is addictive. You just have to push yourself to the point where you start to see results. Later, your mind and body will automatically remind you.

Health has 3 components i.e. a healthy body, mind, and soul.
  • Staying fit is essentially an important part of it. That doesn't mean just losing your weight and getting thinner.
  • Regular exercising is very important. Cardio workout is a must. Do as per your general condition and capacity- running, jogging, skipping or just brisk walking at least for 20- 30 mins.
  • As you progress include weight training to tone up your muscles.
  • Try to use your core muscles(abdominals) while exercising. It burns calories as well as fat.
  • Most essential part which most of us ignore is a proper Warm-up and Cool-down session before & after any exercise.
  • Any of your exercises will not give you the desired results unless you follow a regular schedule BUT your muscles need rest too. Five days a week schedule is a good way to follow.
  • Yoga, Pranayam and Meditation are very good relaxation techniques which will boost your health much more than you could ever imagine, if done properly.
  • Just exercising won't do all. A good, healthy and balanced diet is a must. 
  • Don't restrict yourself with some superfoods and all that crap . All foods have some unique benefits. Experiment with variety of fruits, vegetables and cereals. Your body needs a large variety of nutrients. Natural foods have right proportions of vitamins and minerals required for various body functions.
  • Drink lots of water...it is the best natural tonic.

And remember you can give thousands of reasons for not exercising. I know we all are tooo busy to spare an hour for our fitness but that one hour a day will give you many many years of Healthier life ahead.
Just start with it and in a few weeks you will notice how you save much more of your time daily as your overall efficiency improves drastically.




Stay Healthy Stay Happy
