Dear friends,
I am excited to share with
you that I co-authored a book on health and wealth and it is tentatively
titled, “Stay Younger and Live Longer: The Secrets to Achieve Great Health,
Wealth and Happiness!” Here are the details about the book with a free chapter.
I would appreciate if you could share your thoughts about this book on social
media channels including Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Google+.
About The Book
"He who is of a calm and
happy nature will hardly feel the pressure of age, but to him who is of an
opposite disposition, youth and age are equally a burden." —Plato
This book shares the authors’
years of experiences in health, fitness, food, nutrition, cooking, and beauty.
It explains various aspects of physical fitness, health and wealth. It outlines
research findings and offers tools and techniques to achieve fitness and
health. It concludes to take care of your health to lead a pleasant, peaceful,
happy and meaningful life.
This is a book on life
leadership outlining health, wealth, nutrition, fitness, and beauty and is
written from the practitioners' perspective. You can easily toss the book into
a briefcase or purse and read here and there as time allows. It is a quick
reference guide for all learners, leaders, and trainers.
“The secret of health for
both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, nor to worry about the future,
but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly. There are only two
mistakes one can make along the road to truth; not going all the way, and not
starting.” ―Gautama Buddha
Throughout my life, I cared
for my health and enjoyed going to the gym regularly. When I was 15 years old,
I started to run since my dream was to join the Indian Air Force and serve my
nation. Although I was underweight and short in height with health issues including
asthma I went to a nearby playground and ran regularly to achieve physical
fitness as per the requirements of the military. Through my hard work and
persistence, I achieved basic fitness and joined the Indian Air Force when I
was 19 years old. After joining I underwent rigorous military training and
improved my height a little bit and achieved my physical fitness. Whenever and
wherever I had an opportunity I went to the gym in the Indian Air Force units
to do the workout. After leaving the service, I continued going to the gym
regularly. So I am basically a fitness freak and a health conscious person. I
joined as a faculty in an educational institution to shape students as leaders.
I acquired my Ph.D. in soft skills in 2011 and became a professor. I started to
author books after I became a faculty member and continued authoring books
because I got a positive response from my publishers and readers. I published
45 books in various categories including personality development, success,
gender, learning, leadership, and executive coaching. One day, when I was going
to the gym an idea flashed in my mind to author a book on health and fitness. I
believed that I am the right person to author a book of this genre to benefit
readers. Subsequently, my wife, Padmavathy came on board as she is an image
consultant, a beautician and an expert chef. We included those aspects also.
Now the book is in your hands outlining health, wealth, food, nutrition,
cooking and beauty. Welcome to Self-Care: Stay
Younger and Live Longer.
Healthy
Lifestyle
A healthy lifestyle is
essential to lead a happy and exciting life. The rapid growth in technology has
thrown threats and opportunities to the humankind. It has connected humans
globally and brought comforts to them. At the same time, it has thrown health
challenges to humans including anxiety and depression. Therefore, there is an
urgent need to emphasize a healthy lifestyle to ensure the happiness and progress
of the human race in the right direction.
A healthy lifestyle includes
eating sensibly with the right foods in the right proportions, exercising your
body, associating with positive people, adding value to you and making a
difference in the lives of others. In fact, there are three symptoms of good
health such as good appetite, sound sleep, and free motion. If people possess them,
they are leading a healthy life. Here are some tips in your arsenal to lead a
healthy lifestyle.

before you go to bed.
