Are all the rich people happy? Pondering over this, rejoice your basic necessities.
Whatever we eat, 1/3rd of it nourishes us and 2/3rd nourishes the doctor.
Think twice before buying anything. Is it really necessary? Can you do without it?
Taking bath in hot water, drinking hot milk, reading for a few minutes or listening to music before going to bed helps in inducing sleep.
In place of tooth-paste you can use ‘Neem’ or ‘Babool’ sticks or you can clean your teeth with mustered oil mixed with salt. This is very good for teeth.
Walking is not only a necessity of life, but also an art, pleasure, nourishes, happiness, a gift of nature and the best exercise in the world.
Always wear white and loosely woven clothes in summer. Black coloured clothes soak the sun rays and consequently, the body cannot get the life force elements.
Whatever type of addiction it may be, it is always an obstacle in work and sorrowful in life, in the long run. Enjoy everything in the world. There is no stopping. But don’t become an addict to anything.

patients laugh quite often.
We talk about ‘Asans’ (postures), ‘Pranayama’ (breathing exercise) and meditation (concentration) in yoga. But nobody talks about ‘Yama’ and Niyama’, we cannot achieve perfection in postures, healthy breathing and deeper meditation.
Make at least 12 parts of one chapatti and chew it nicely while eating. We tend to eat more if we eat fast, and enough saliva is not produced and enough saliva helps in digesting the food. Investigations show that whatever food we eat, we get the juice of only 30 to 50 percentage of the food we eat. The body spends extra energy to eliminate the rest of the food (out of the body)
Instead running after the synthetic cosmetics, we can buy the natural things like lemon, cucumber, neem, besil leaves, gram flour, rose water, sandal wood, chiraungi, milk, turmeric, curd and almonds etc.
Look at the glow of the rising sun in the morning. When eyes start feeling tired cover your eyes with the cups of your palms. Inside cups open and close eyes alternately. Then look through the slits of your fingers. Then wash your eyes with cold water after this and dry massage the eyes. You will be saved from many eye problems.
One hour of sleep between 9.00 p.m. to 12.00 p.m. gives you rest of 2 ½ hours. Between 12.00 a.m. to 3.00 a.m. (midnight) gives you rest of 2 hours and one hour of sleep between 3.00 a.m. to 6.00 a.m. (early morning) gives you rest of 1 ½ hours. If you sleep for one hour after the sun rise, two hours are wasted and you get tired soon. Those people who go on sleeping after the sunrise, don’t feel fit mentally and physically. People who sleep early and get up early are more disciplined, more pure hearted and have astonishing ability.
