The Alcohol
Rehabilitation Centre in New Delhi with collaboration with the Drug
Rehabilitation Centre in New Delhi mainly talks about the art of
healthy living and how to maintain that lifestyle. We have always heard "Health
is wealth". The Drug
Rehabilitation Centre in New Delhi states that health is considered
important and placed equivalent to wealth. In my opinion, health is superior to
wealth. If we are healthy we can work and earn money. If we are unhealthy we
lose our work.
Why is it placed equivalent to wealth?
Because if not
directly, we lose our money and peace of mind indirectly. Our regular life gets
disturbed and not just we but our near and dear ones also feel worried. Going
to the doctor frequently due to some illness is not liked by anyone. Spending
thousands in hospitals is a hefty affair. So it's rightly said that health is
wealth.
Every day we make
resolutions to stay healthy but as the day starts we start eating unhealthy and
oily snacks. Till there, it's ok. But the regression at the end of the day
makes us feel guilty. This happens with us all the time, after breaking the
diet we only make new plans and new dates to start again. This constant cycle
of resolution-making, eating opposite and regretting continues forever. But how
to break this vicious cycle?
The answer is pretty
simple. It lies in the word "TASTE". Everyone likes tasty food but
when the healthy term creeps in, we think the food is bland. But this is a misconception;
healthy food is not bland or tasteless.
The secret is in its
preparation, how we make food in a healthy way and make it tasty. Taste can put
through various Indian spices with a bit of twist through various herbs be it
Italian herbs or any natural flavour.
Let me give you some healthy
and less time-consuming recipes for snacking-
● Masala makhana (Indian popcorn) by frying
makhana in ghee with some nuts, salt and chilli flakes and pepper seasoning.
● Fruity yoghurt is made by adding fresh
seasonal fruits in thick curd with the flavour of your choice.
● Diet bhel by roasting papads, rice flakes,
onions, tomatoes, fresh mind and coriander leaves with few tangy lemon drops.
● Substitute sweet biscuits with millet and
jowar bhakris with the flavour of chilli, salt and some masalas as per your
taste.
● Ensure to have more water, be it by flavouring
it with cucumbers, mint or lemon.
● Have yoghurt based ice creams by adding fruits
to thick curd and blending it and just refrigerating the mixture? Tasty and
healthy ice cream is ready just for you.
Little steps in making
our lifestyle healthy are needed and recommended in these busy scheduled lives.
Our effort to stay healthy will not be a waste in the long-term. Major changes
are needed in food habits; if it is achieved then we are halfway through it.
But with this regular exercise, sleep for at least minimum hours at the right
time and mental peace are necessary to have a healthy body and mind.
With these few steps,
we can make a journey towards a happy and healthy life and live longer without
disease in old age. Hence, let's all together give its due respect to our body
and mind and learn the art of healthy living.
