Swasthayam ( Health) is defined as the normal functioning of physical elements ( dosha/ dhatu/ mala ) along with a placid state of mental elements ( atma/indriya/ manas ) . There has to be harmony of body , mind and spirit , thus emphasizing the ability of either of them to initiate disease process. The understanding of its normal qualities and everyday functions helps to understand any alteration thereby helping us realize signals given out by the system and attend to it at the right time.
The same has been re-instated today.
"Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." - WHO
The ultimate aim is to regard your body as your most prized possession. Because that is where the mind and soul resides. Your health is your instrument and maintaining it is the best thing you can do to yourself.
And I will always say this,
"Take care of your body now,
And watch your body taking care of you later"
