Simple Habits For Longevity
The Yogis teach that you are like a plant. You need water, sunlight, food, and fresh air to thrive. Your body already intuitively knows what's best.
I recently watched the documentary 'Live to 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones' on Netflix. The Blue Zones are places where people live longer than the average life expectancy, with the highest concentration of centenarians—those who live to be a hundred or more years old. After watching all the episodes, I was amazed by how similar the conclusions drawn from these places on Earth and their inhabitants' habits are to what the Yogis suggest regarding physical well-being.
In his informative manual, 'Hatha Yoga: The Yogi Philosophy of Physical Well-Being,' Yogi Ramacharaka explains in detail how the body works and what habits to cultivate to maintain its normal and healthy condition.
