Wellness guru shares 4 pillars of good health

Amritsar, July 16

Luke Coutinho, one of the country’s high profile nutrition expert and health coach, conducted an online session on holistic fitness with FICCI FLO members in the city. The session focused on a discussion about health, eating right for physical and mental fitness.

Chaired by Meeta Mehra, Chiarperson, FICCI FLO, Amritsar, the session emphasised the Luke’s concept of 360 degree approach towards health goals and his four-pillar strategy. “Sleep, emotional well-being, nutrition and exercise, are the four pillars of a healthy mind and body. Sleep is the elixir to ensure youthfulness and boost the immunity. Any disturbance in our sleeping cycles may cause health issues,” he said.

He also emphasised the importance of mental and emotional well-being by highlighting the fact that one can enhance one’s physical health by altering his or her thought process. “No matter how many healthy habits a person inculcates, if he does not have a peace of mind, nothing will work for him. He said fitness came from a peaceful mind.”

Explaining the concept of balanced nutrition, Luke said each meal should be laced with nutrients, according to the susceptibility of our body. “A particular diet can do wonders for a person and may not work for another,” he said. — TNS
