Man is a magnet, and every line and dot and detail of his experiences come by his own attraction.

I am inspired by what my friend, Vikram, has shared in his blog.  He’s the co-founder and wellness coach of Metro Nirvana, a holistic wellness company based in Mumbai.  We met while learning Iyengar Yoga at the Iyengar Institute in Mumbai 5 years ago.

Here’s his take on wellness in the new year:

“Even if resolutions are not kept in the course of the year, the importance given to wellness reflects a positive change. Every small step you make towards holistic living will improve your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health.

So does this year’s New Year resolution involve any of these holistic goals?

*      A better work-life balance
*      Exercise more and regularly
*      Spend additional time with family and not just friends
*      Resolve to quit smoking and drinking
*      Have a healthy wholesome diet to tame the bulge
*      Spend more time travelling to different parts of the world
*      Have regular massages
*      Allot more time for rest and leisure
*      Build a life outside the office
*      Practice yoga, the perfect antidote in this stressed-out world
*      Kick unhealthy habits by taking up a healthy hobby
*      Learn something new this year
*      Spend more time in volunteer activities. It is here you can see the larger picture
- the purpose of your life and meaning to your life
*      De-clutter your house and desktop
*      Spend some time in silence daily. Ir picture - the purpose of your life
and meaning to your life
*      And finally, constantly remind yourself that you deserve to be happy!

The road to happiness lies in two simple principles:
Find what is that interests you and that you can do well, and when you find it, put your whole soul into it - every bit of energy and ambition and natural ability you have.
