PUBLISHERS NOTE
According to Francis Bacon, A healthy body is the greatest chamber of soul; a sick one, its prison. But to maintain a healthy body one must not only follow the rules of moderate health living coupled with a state of moral relaxation exercising ones judgment in meeting the strains and stresses in life but must also understand the disease process, since a proper understanding of not only the health but also of the sickness is essential in maintaining a healthy being.
The present day stress of life produces harmful effects not only on different organs of the body but also on the psyche. There is no denying the fact that both the mind and body are so interlinked that their mutual interaction constitutes equal share in the maintenance of the normal human cycle.
To live a normal healthy life one has to live life and enjoy it. Life cant be a mathematical equation of dos and dont but, put in a judicious manner; the various intricacies of a healthy and diseased body must be well appreciated. If one can understand that the road to healthy living through a life of moderation in ones habit and attitudes towards life, the task becomes much easier.
To make the task easier we present to you Perfect Health, a set of four books.
Book I: Perfect Health: Body, Diet & Nutrition
Book II: Perfect Health: Fitness & Slimming
Book III: Perfect Health: Health Hazards & Cure
Book IV: Perfect Health: Stress & Alternative Therapies
This set of four books is not meant to create awareness about the physical well-being alone. There are many books doing that, already. Instead, all the four books are all about creating awareness that fitness of the mind and emotions is as important as the fitness of body. And unless one works at being fit in every way, one is not likely to find true health.
To many, this would seem an unattainable goal but it is not so. The effort required to work towards an integrated health and fitness regime is hardly any more difficult than trying to balance your social and spiritual life. Where there is a will, there is a way. And so with fitness.
Perfect Health provides a complete step-by-step program of mind body medicine tailored to individual needs. The result is a total plan, tailor-made for each individual, to reestablish the bodys essential balance with nature; to strengthen the mind-body connection; and to use the power of quantum healing to transcend the ordinary limitations of disease and aging in short, for achieving perfect health.

OUR HEALTH DEPENDS ON US
I t is we who can make or mar ourselves, create and keep a healthy person inside or unhealthy patient. It is up to us to remain healthy or suffer illness.
By maintaining proper diet; proper balance, correct postures, working hard, doing physical labour, taking adequate rest, keeping inside out clean and by doing good deeds we can be healthy, happy and satisfied. But if we do the opposite, we will create obstacles and suffering of different hue, quality and dimension to lead a miserable life. Our misery and our happiness depend totally on us. It is the work, word and philosophy that moulds a person and his personality and shapes his life, and to a certain extent of those that are dependent on him/her or are related to him/her.
