“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 18 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 the 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 55 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 into my mind to author a book on health and fitness. I believe 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 also included those aspects. 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 brought threats and opportunities to humankind. It has connected humans globally and brought comforts to them. At the same time, it has posed 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 yourself, 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.
  • Express your gratitude early morning when you get up from bed, and take feedback every day before you go to bed.
  • Take proper care of your body. Eat right. Exercise every day. Sleep adequately.
  • Eat with your family members. Avoid gadgets and television viewing while eating. Chew food properly to ensure effective digestion. Avoid taking excessive salt because it can cause strokes and heart attacks.
  • Acquire a positive, right, and strong attitude. Surround yourself with positive people. Spread positivity. Inspire the people around you. Add value to others.
