The Connection Between Breath, Life Force, and Wellbeing.
The Importance of Food, Rest, and Mindfulness.
Health is a state of being that encompasses physical, mental, and spiritual wellbeing. It is achieved when we have a disease-free body, a stress-free mind, and an inhibition-free intellect.
Here are the signs of good health:
1. *Disease-free body*: Free from physical ailments and illnesses.
2. *Quiver-free breath*: Steady and calm breathing, indicating a peaceful mind.
3. *Stress-free mind*: Ability to manage stress and emotions, leading to mental clarity.
4. *Inhibition-free intellect*: Unrestricted thinking, creativity, and problem-solving.
5. *Obsession-free memory*: Freedom from unwanted thoughts and memories.
6. *Ego that includes all*: Sense of connection and compassion towards others.
7. *Soul free from sorrow*: Inner peace, happiness, and contentment.
Additionally, good health is characterized by:
- Balance between food, exercise, rest, and mindfulness
- Strong life force energy (prana)
- Healthy relationships and social connections
- Ability to manage emotions and stress
- Positive outlook and attitude
- Connection to nature and the environment
By cultivating these signs of good health, you can achieve overall wellbeing and live a happy, healthy, and fulfilling life.
Our body has five levels of existence: environment, physical body, life force, mind, and intuitive body. Illnesses manifest when we violate natural laws or release past impressions or karma. Practicing meditation, pranayama, and Sudarshan Kriya can enhance our life force and overall wellbeing.
Good health requires a balance between food, exercise, rest, and mindfulness. Our breath holds transformative secrets for staying healthy, and our life force is subtler than emotions. By managing our breath and life force, we can strengthen our body and boost our immunity.
