Health is"a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. This is the Definition from world Health orginisation in 1948 at his creation.
Overall health is achieved through a combination of physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being, which, together is commonly referred to as the Health Triangle.
In this world there are many ways to maintain health i.e Allopthy , Unani way of treatment ( With herbs ), auorvedik ( mostly in India),Homoeopathy ( which starts from Germany and know in almost all the countries have it ).Besides this other alternative ways of maintaining health are in the world , i.e accupuncture,acupressure, spiritual healings, Chinese ways of treating , Yoga and other numourous ways.If we see thoroughly and deeply , Homoeopathy way of treating is nearest to the nature.Its philosophy is” similia, similibus, curentur, let likes be cured by likes”.These are words of Dr.Samual Hahnemanne.
Who’s definition of health invited nations to expand the conceptual framework of their health systems beyond issues related to the physical condition of individuals and their diseases, and it motivated us to focus our attention on what we now call social determinants of health.
Only a handful of publications have focused specifically on the definition of health and its evolution in the first 6 decades. Some of them highlight its lack of operational value and the problem created by use of the word "complete." Others declare the definition, which has not been modified since 1948, "simply a bad one."
In 1986, the WHO, in the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion, said that health is "a resource for everyday life, not the objective of living. Health is a positive concept emphasizing social and personal resources, as well as physical capacities." Classification systems such as the WHO Family of International Classifications (WHO-FIC), which is composed of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) and the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) also define health.
In Homoeopathic philosophy , it is insisted on mental health , because a healthy mind represents a healthy body. If we see the Kent repertory , we will find that it is started from mind symptoms.There are nearly 60,000 symptoms in this repertory.Mental health describes either a level of cognitive or emotional well-being or an absence of a mental disorder. Physical fitness refers to body health, and is the result of regular exercises , proper diet , nutrition, and proper rest for physical recovery.Homoeopathy discusses on these all problems whether they related to physical health or mental health.
Here I also state that personal health depends partially on the social structure of one's life. The maintenance of strong social relationships is linked to good health conditions, longevity, productivity, and a positive attitude. This is due to the fact that positive social interaction as viewed by the participant increases many chemical levels in the brain which are linked to personality and intelligence traits.
In coming days we will also discuss on how to we maintain our these health levels.
