I am hot

Just saw a post on Facebook, which said that things expand when they are hot so I am not fat, I am hot.  Many people had responded with naughty emojis, some wrote very funny and so on.  One remark caught my attention. It said, I wish it were true.

But I feel that we are as old as we feel and we can actually loose weight if we come down to it. According to Ayurveda, the Indian medicine system, you can do it even without doing rigorous exercises or going to the Gym. There are simple steps that you can take to maintain your weight.

Eating healthy and complete meals as we all know is one.  Eat on time and eat a little less than your hunger. Eat plenty of vegetables and legumes in your diet.  Walk for at least five kilometers every day. Many of us who are in their forties don’t have thee flexibility. So walking is one good option.

I find yoga to be the best cure. Yoga is not just a set of exercises but a complete system of keeping fit and healthy. Pranayama along with yoga aasans will keep not just your body but mind too healthy and calm. Do it earfly in the morning and if you don’t have time you can do it  anytime but there has to be a gap of 4 hours after your meal.

But the most effective way to stay fit is to feel young and fit. Dr. Deepak Chopra, in his book ‘Grow younger, Live Longer’, says that you can grow younger by changing your bio stat. We can make big difference with small steps but it is a game of patience. I know many of you are thinking, I have tried everything but it doesn’t work. But tell me how many of you actually did something to control your weight when it first increased? Did you take any measures then? We wake up when things go out of hands.

Make your life style healthy and do it long term. You will see fat melting.

So be it!!!
