Physical Health
� Physical Body Health is the basis on which rest of the Holistic
Health resides.
� Physical Body is essentially a combination of 3 bodies known to our
ancestors thousands of years back. Namely,
� Sthula Sareera ( Matter )
� Sukuma Sarrera and ( Bio Energy )
� Karana Sarrera ( Universal Energy )
� No therapy can heal unless all these 3 bodies are well
understood and cared for.
� The dynamics of Matter + Energy ( Bio + Uni ) determines the health.
� Vethathirian Holistic Health system offer a practical simple solution.

Physical Health (contd..)
Physical Health is Body related.
All health problems show up in the body. Hence most easiest to
understand using technology, but difficult to tackle when the cause &
source are not clear.
Body well designed for self Healing with proper circulation of Air,
Heat and Blood ( Vatta, Pitta and Kapha). These three together help
Life force (prana) to circulate in the physical body.
Any deficiency in their circulation will lead to pain, disease and finally
death.
Vethathirian Simplified Physical Yogic Exercises ensure proper
circulation of all the three and effect corrective actions where
necessary. Thus assure physical health.
