No matter who you are or what you wish to achieve in life, you have to be in the right frame of health to achieve it. To be successful at anything, you have to feel good – about yourself… that you’re worthy and deserving of things; and once you’re there the confidence, will power and resolution will flow in anyways! It all starts with your mind… a wise Latin saying goes, “A healthy mind in a healthy body”, indicating the need for a healthy body as indispensable to a healthy mind. It is true, an unhealthy body affects the mind as well – in more ways than one – chemically, biologically, mentally and emotionally. A healthy body is an integral part of one’s mental and psychological well-being.

Today, the urban Indian woman works shoulder to shoulder with men – handling so much more than men – her career, her household, her children, her social commitments, and more. As a result, most times, she ends up neglecting her own health and well-being. This is especially true for

the lovely Parsi women – who are an evolved, highly educated, ambitious and dynamic lot – they are successful at home yet excel as professionals – they don multiple hats with ease and we salute their multifarious capacities as mothers, wives, daughters, career women, bread earners, daughters, friends, and so much more!

It is only fair then, to dedicate this Woman’s Day to Women’s Health – as that is the ultimate sign of showing care for one’s own self as a woman, and expressing care as those lucky to have lovely ladies to light up our lives…
