GETTING BACK TO BASICS-SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST

Come April and it looks like we are having a déjà vu of last year march. With the viral infection coming back again with a vengeance it is again time to sequester ourselves to our homes, only do important tasks at hand and limit our social lives.If we remember the lockdown last year it had brought our fast moving lives and exquisite lifestyles to a sudden halt. It had taken us back to the basics where nothing mattered except survival – Survival of the fittest, the law of the jungle.

A small virus had brought us down to our knees irrespective of our power, position or money. A disease which had practically no cure or medicine. It only mattered how healthy you were. Mostly everyone took a vow to lead a healthy and disciplined lifestyle last year.But as the viral wave receded last year so did the motivation and dedication.

It is tough time for everyone. Many people are losing hope and getting pessimistic about the future. But instead of sitting and brooding inside our homes we need to see the silver lining in this hour of darkness. This year comeback has again emphasized the importance of being healthy.So let’s get up and get the ball rolling again. Try to adhere to a nutritious diet plan and cut down on your fat and carbs. Go for a walk, do some yoga, pilates or meditation. Try to make this healthy lifestyle a habit so that we may not need such viral reminders again. Be fit, save yourself and save others!
