The First Step Towards Happiness: A Healthy Body and Mind

Every person, consciously or unconsciously, strives to attain everlasting happiness. This happiness is not just momentary pleasure but a state of continuous peace and joy. However, life presents numerous challenges and difficulties that disturb our peace and affect our happiness. A healthy body and mind are essential in overcoming these obstacles and achieving lasting happiness.

The truth is that happiness is our true nature, but mental and physical problems prevent us from experiencing it fully. If we understand the causes of our suffering and work towards eliminating them, we can move closer to a more peaceful and joyful life.

The first and most important step toward happiness is a healthy body and a healthy mind. Without good health, no one can remain truly happy for long. In this article, we will explore the factors affecting our body and mind and how to improve them.

Why Are Diseases Increasing Despite Medical Advancements?

Today, medical science has made remarkable progress. We have access to better hospitals, advanced equipment, powerful medicines, and high-quality healthcare services. Additionally, people have more purchasing power, allowing them to spend more on healthcare. A healthy body and mind are now more achievable with these advancements, promoting overall well-being.

Then why are people becoming sicker than before?

👉 The reason is that modern medicine treats only the symptoms but does not address the root causes of diseases.
👉 Most illnesses originate from our lifestyle, mental state, and daily habits.
👉 If we pay attention to our diet, routine, and mental health, many diseases can be prevented.

Let us explore the primary causes of diseases, categorized into three major groups:

1️⃣ Diseases Originating from Poor Digestion

A healthy body starts with a strong digestive system. However, due to unhealthy eating habits, digestive disorders have become increasingly common.

Problems Caused by an Unhealthy Diet:

🔹 Acidity and Acid Reflux – Eating too much spicy, fried, and oily food increases stomach acid.
🔹 Indigestion and Bloating – Junk food and heavy meals weaken digestion.
🔹 Nutritional Deficiencies – Poor absorption of essential nutrients leads to overall weakness.
🔹 Weakened Immunity – Poor digestion makes the body more susceptible to infections.

💡 Solutions:
✅ Consume fresh, natural, and home-cooked meals as much as possible.
✅ Avoid excessive spicy, fried, and junk food.
✅ Follow a proper meal schedule—avoid eating late at night.
✅ Include fiber-rich foods, probiotics, and adequate water intake for a healthy gut.

3️⃣ Diseases Originating from Mental and Emotional Distress

Our mental health greatly impacts our physical well-being. In today’s fast-paced world, mental stress and emotional turmoil are affecting more people than ever.

Mental Stress and Its Effects on Health:

🔹 Anxiety – Caused by excessive stress and uncertainty.
🔹 Depression – Results from loneliness, failures, and emotional trauma.
🔹 Sleep Disorders – Due to excessive screen time, lack of mental peace, and work pressure.

👉 More than 70% of illnesses today are psychosomatic, meaning they originate from mental stress and emotional distress.
👉 Prolonged stress releases cortisol, a hormone that weakens immunity, increases blood pressure, and causes fatigue.

💡 Solutions:
✅ Practice meditation and mindfulness to calm the mind.
✅ Reduce social media usage and exposure to negative news.
✅ Engage in selfless service (Seva) and spiritual activities for inner fulfillment.
✅ Cultivate gratitude and a positive mindset to overcome negativity.

🔹 By mastering our body and mind, we can take control of our lives.

🚩 Let us commit to health, happiness, and inner peace, making this world a better place.
