Life is frittered away by details. Simplify... Simplify…simplify! Cried Thoreau, several years ago. Much water has flowed under the proverbial bridge ever since, but we have continued to make this world a more and more complicated place to live in. Indeed we have reached a stage where success has become synonymous with heart attacks, ulcers and high blood pressure! In fact, these ailments are no longer considered as diseased, but have come to stay as status symbols in modern society!Is it not time that we understand that success at the cost of serenity, is no success at all? Is it not time we appreciate, that victory at the cost of peace and tranquility, will only be a victory in vain? Like happiness, relaxation is not a station you arrive at. It is a manner of traveling. Let us not fallinto the mental trap that we shall relax after we succeed. On the contrary, let relaxation be a part of our way to success.
And here are TEN surest ways to RELAX for those who would like to relax and succeed:
Do not get angry easily – be forgiving, Remember, all anger ends in repentance!
Do not believe everything you hear; do not do everything you see; then you shall always be relaxed.
Browse through a book or magazine in a book store or public library or challenge yourself with a crossword puzzle whenever you find time.
Do not dwell on the past. Live for the present and plan for the future. Remember, today is the tomorrow you did not plan for yesterday!
It is perfectly normal for people to be ungrateful. So, if you are expecting gratitude, you are going to get heartburns!
Do not give your spouse, children and subordinates a tough time every now and then. Take a rigid stand only on truly important issues.
Do not worry about changing things that are totally beyond your control.
Understand that contentment is not the fulfillment of what you wish, but the appreciation of what you already possess. Understand that contentment is natural wealth and luxury is artificial happiness.
Engage in a sport or activity like Tennis that allows you to release your aggressions you can hit the ball as hard as you like!
Do meditation regularly.

Dear Doctor, Its healing to read you blog, quite informative. I am planning to visit your clinic in a day with regard to my dad's condition, he 58yrs old and is now diognised for Diffuse B Cell Lymphoma, cancer, we were planning on going ahead with the Chemo + Antibodi treatment. IT proves to be very expensive and also a painful process. I would like to know if an alternate treatment would prove effective to him
