Abstract
We can slow down and even reverse the effects of aging with a preventive health care that includes alternative approaches. It’s never too late to start changing ourselves. Man needs a healthy body for a healthy mind, filed worth good thoughts. Physical fitness alone is not enough. Mental health is equally important. Together with the gross physical body everybody has a subtle body. One has to take good care of this subtle body also. For this, spiritual exercises will have to be performed which will help one to realize the purity of the heart, mind and soul. We have to practice human values for healthy living, too.
