� Health is a word derived from Healing.

� A wound in the body heals by itself. If not a Patient must

survive after a Successful Operation.

� Body system is well designed for Self Healing Process.

Over usage / damage of Body system prevents the self healing.

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.
