3. Do not be carried away by
the pompous advertisements made by quacks and charlatans. Lead a simple natural
life. You will become all right soon. Do not spend any money in purchasing the
so-called patent medicines and specifics. They are worthless. Quacks try to
exploit the credulous and the ignorant. Beware. Do not go to the doctors very
often. Endeavour to qualify
yourself as your own doctor.
Understand the laws of nature and the principles of hygiene and health. Do not
trespass against the laws of health.
4. Bask in the sun. Expose
your body to the rays of the sun for a short time daily. This is heliotherapy
or sun-treatment. Sun is the source of energy and power. You will derive energy
and power from the sun.
5. Soak 12 almonds at night.
Remove the skin and take the almonds with some sugarcandy in the early morning.
Or you can make a refreshing beverage by grinding these almonds with a little black
pepper and sugarcandy. This is called ‘thandai’ by the Punjabis. This is a
fine, cooling and strength-giving tonic.
6. Rest in bed is necessary.
Adjust your diet. Take simple, wholesome, easily digestible, bland and
non-irritating food. Give up hot, pungent curries, chutneys and chilliest Rest
the stomach and the small bowels by taking recourse to partial fasts. If you
can fast for a whole day, it is all the better. Fasting eliminates poisons and
overhauls the system thoroughly. You can take sago and milk barley water and
fruits like sweet oranges, grapes, etc. If you are thirsty, you can take lemon
or orange juice with sugarcandy.
