"I am working on it" is the adult version of "The Dog Ate my Homework."
Why?
Both these lines mean:
A. Nope, it is not ready.
B. I need an extension.
C. There's nothing anyone can do about it.
This morning, i was thinking about all the people I know who lived long.
And I realised, actually, it boils down to just THREE things that they do right.
1. Right Breath
Deep and conscious breathing as a matter of course.
2. Right Eating
Right eating is not salads. It is eating as per your prakriti. If a tamas prakriti person tries to eat salads, they will not benefit. Same for Rajas. Only satvik prakriti needs simple kand mool diet. So, eat as per your guna - dosha (prakriti is the combination of guna (Satvik-Rajsik-Tamsik) and Dosha (Vata-pitta-kapha) )
3. Physical activity
They all were physically active. Not like 8 hours in the sun active (though that is obviously great) but they would get up and do their own cooking, laundry, and other household chores that involve bending, stretching, etc. They would take the stairs for one or two floors.
4. Right Sleep.
Sleep according to your own Circadian rhythm and the light of the sun. Most importantly for our times, sleep enough. Don't skimp on sleep.
Thats it. Right Breath, Right Food, Right Sleep, and keeping the limbs going.
