Immune System:
Definition
According to Harvard,
the immune system does a job of defending you against disease-causing
microorganisms. You can read more about on Harvard’s official website, https://www.health.harvard.edu/staying-healthy/how-to-boost-your-immune-system.
Yes. The immune system
is the body’s capacity to fight against disease-causing micro-organisms to
function your body normally.
So to be healthy and
have a balanced life we should always work on improving our immune system.
To increase the immune
system there are numerous ways. Nowadays, due to extensive marketing
strategies, people are doing baseless things. Eating medicines to increase the
immunity system.
Really? I always wonder
how one can take pills to increase the immune system. The thing we should move
away from by increasing our immune system, we are eating that to increase it.

kind of for or in yogic language ‘Satvic Food’ your body will not produce
diseases in your body. Even your mind will be calm. Your whole system will be

Introduction: Boost Your
Immune System Naturally.
There various ways to
boost your immunity naturally by having various foods like eating Vitamin C
rich foods, Haldi, Gilloy, etc. But we will not discuss the about food in this
article. We will keep this a natural procedure, without food including in it.
Nature wants us to be
healthy. Nature has designed our body which will be healthy on the environment
on earth. But due to the modern lifestyle and following western culture, we are
moving towards a more passive lifestyle.
We are the people who
enjoy pub & Dj more than morning sunlight.
So if we are not
following the natural lifestyle for which our body is designed by nature, then
definitely we will be more receptive to the disease causing microbes.
So we will discuss some
natural methods for which our body is made up of.
4
methods to increase your immune system naturally:
1.
Take Ample of Sunlight
In the villages, during
the storage of grains, major losses happen due to insects and pests. So what
they do? They spread them in the sunlight. After heating properly all the
insects and pests move away.
The above thing is the
same as our body too. Our body is meant to be in sunlight. It should at least
take 30 minutes of sunlight every day. Because it heats up our body and kills
the unnecessary microbes on and inside or body.
Even Corona Virus cannot
survive in temperature more than 27 Degree Celsius. To kill the Corona Virus
you should take sunbathing for at least 30 minutes. It is a natural sanitizer.
As you want to heat your
food, you use fire in different forms. So as to heat up your body you must use
the only body heater, a natural body heater. That is the Sun.
Morning and evening
sunlight will also provide your Vitamin-D.
2.
Fasting
Some will say how
fasting can improve our immune system?
Yes. Indeed!
Fasting is a powerful
process to clean your body naturally.
Our ancient saints
connected fasting with the God-thing and made it a mainstream process of day to
day living. We usually listen from our mother that she has fasting on a
particular day of the month or week.
Now the question comes
to your mind that how fasting can clean our body? Let us understand this.
When we eat something
naturally our body and its energies works to digest the food that has been
eaten. So if we eat more the more energy requires to digest the food. That is
why we feel sleepy after eating more food because the major portion of the
energy gets diverted to digest the food.
So what happens we are
on a fast. Our body has ample energy. That energy is used in cleaning up the
body. Removing unnecessary toxins and microbes from the body.
That is how the body is
cleaned up naturally without spending a single rupee on it. Therefore fasting
is important. We should atleast do it for once in a month.
As our body gets cleaned
up due to fasting, our immunity starts to build up. Because there are no toxins
in the body. The body is ready for any attack. That is how fasting increases
immunity.
3.
Exercise and Pranayama
We should do a lot of
physical work. Physical work removes toxins in your body through sweat.
Physical work also makes
your blood circulation proper. Every part of the body receives an ample amount
of blood so work more efficiently.
The body becomes fit and
fine.
It is also said that
physical exercise slows down the release of stress homes. Lower stress hormones
reduce the chances of illness.
Do pranayama regularly.
It increases your Prana - Energy and provides more oxygen to the body.

We discussed 3 things to
boost your immune system naturally:
1. Take ample of
sunlight
2. Fasting

Pranayama
If you do above 3 simple
things your health life will suddenly move to new heights. I can bet on this.
Our mind is such that it ignores simple things in life. But the greatest secret
of life lies in the simplest of things.
All the above things do
not require a single rupee. Only your sincere efforts and time. And I am sure
you will start them. Start a small. Because the journey of a thousand miles
begins with one step.
