A KIND APPROACH TO HEART


the approaches to the heart disease are varied.the multiple trends in accepting the disease and acting on it are causing more harm than good.
there are instances where the patient need to have undergone CABG but opted out for life style modification and alternative treatment option,have resulted in losing a precious life.i always feel that the heart disease is comparable to atom bomb clinging to our body tightly.common sense tells that rather than removing the bomb directly in first instance it is better to cut the circuit of the bomb there by defusing it and making it impotent than take measures to seperate it from the body.similarly for heart disease ,initially treatment in form of plasty or surgery should be carried out and then followed by life style modification and alternative therapy.such a approach can prove beneficial to patient in long run .

jumping on the lifestyle modification also there are many ways.routine exercises is one part of life style modification.other part include stress reduction,learning a new way of life style ,weight reduction.thus life approach has to on a plane of physical,mental, spiritual,emotional and last but not the least monetary development.


physical development takes form of physiotheraphy , weight reduction exercises .developing good physique is essential to lead a healthy life.over coming the physical constraints will help the patient lead a symptom free better life style than before.diet charting from a dietician is welcome but is it helping the patient stick to new regime?being vegetarian or simply fruitarian can be a blessing.

non vegetarian food takes 72 hours to get digested completly before it gets thrown out of the body .on the other hand the vegetarian diet gets assimilated in  the body early and waste products discarded in 24 hours.


mental development is essential for better outcome of the patient as a whole. if the patient has depression ,or other issues that needs mental treatment should also be tackled first.having as patient depressed and stresszed after the plasty or CABG can be a huge problem. heart attack the name itself send s shivers down
a normal persons spine.some patient will not accept that they have heart disease and will go in shock or denial.


spiritual development of a patient is equally important.place of patient in the society can make patient uneasy and restless. the feeling that he is small person in the great wide beautiful wonderful world sent unto this world to play his part is very important. spiritually the patientr will find solace in vedanta way of life thereby reducing the stress for himself and accepting his disease.


emotional turmoil in day to day activity for the patient is very common and some patient cannot take the stress of the situation every day leading to breakdown.emotional need of the person can be solved by the near and dear spouse or children as a team work. it would be beneficial for the patient ,if the near dear ones donot left them unattended.at times patient can complain of headaches and nightnares ,should be attended to promptly.


last but not the least the monetary aspect of the heart disease is equally important. patient donot have insurance policy taken out to help them in the times of need. also the race to earn more money has given them stress which in turn has lead to formation of blockage.feeling of let down because of lack of money can be very distressing and patient  near and dear one can go in shock or denial.
