We all know that good health and good sense are life's greatest blessings. Good health plays a crucial role in the life of a human being. An unhealthy person won’t do anything fruitful in his life. Preservation of health is indispensable. It is confined to natural’s laws involving body, mind and environment. These laws relate to fresh air, sunlight, healthy diet, regular exercise, yoga, meditation, relaxation, enough sleep and cleanliness. There are many factors that affect a person’s health that can be physical, biological, psychological, and social stress.
