Ayurveda Daily Routine for Healthy Life

Simple Habits for a healthy life

हिताहितं सुखं दुःखं आयुस्तस्य हिताहितम्।
मानं च तच्च यत्रोक्तं आयुर्वेदः स उच्यते॥

Acharya Vagbhata, the author of Ashtanga Hridaya, explained that good health comes from simple daily habits. He advised waking up early, keeping the body clean, and doing light exercise regularly. Eating food in the right amount and only when truly hungry helps keep digestion strong. Good digestion protects the body from illness. Vagbhata also stressed the importance of proper sleep, as it refreshes both the body and mind. He taught that controlling the senses and following good behavior bring mental peace. These daily life rules focus on balance, discipline, and awareness, and they remain useful for healthy living even in modern times.
