6th Day: Physical areas of Development
This old saying has so much weight in it –If wealth is lost, nothing is lost, if health is lost, everything is lost. It relates so much in everyone’s life. I was happy to learn that physical health education would be more likely to come as part of a formal curriculum.
If a small "pimple" on the face is enough to trigger a massive mental health and wellbeing, and impact one's physical health, the area of physical development should be given the top most priority at school. Because there are thousands of young lives undergoing such tight daily situations and more importantly, there are other hundreds who want to pursue professional academics in the fields of games and sports.
Remaining physical fit is one area; I grew up taking it so seriously. To keep myself fit with a sedentary lifestyle, I engage myself playing different games, community service, hiking, birding, simple yoga and more recently cycling. Therefore, engaging actively in these areas not only keeps me physically fit but also mentally sound.
I have spent the whole day learning, discussing, sharing and realizing the importance of mental health, wellbeing, fitness, sports, etc. More importantly, the beautiful stories on Sujata Effect, Sowa Rigpa, Modern Science, current mental health issues and assessment of physical areas took the floor gripped until the end of the presentation.
Through this training, I am determined to take all areas of development and practice all my personal roadmaps built on trust and see the change in me. If everything works as reflected, I would be happily taking another cycle of learning on it. However, if some roadmaps don't seem to work, I am also ready to relook at other new areas of improvement equally. And I am sure everything will be fine.
