If your hubby is not a snoozing, boozing and smoke-billowing guy, nothing to be worried about! My grandfather from maternal side had been diagnosed as diabetic at 38, and he lived up to 79 years. He was a strict disciplinarian, though. 5 km of walk everyday was a piece of cake for him. Very parsimonious by nature, he would wake up at 5 AM in the morning, and would switch off all the fans in every room. The reason as per him: the balmy environment at dawn didn't necessitate any artificial air. Before I veer to much, let me come back to the topic. He never touched any substance of addiction, not even a cup of tea. He depended on ayurvedic medicine. He himself was able to extract juice from various leaves and herbs. One of them I remember was periwinkle leaf. Therefore, if not done yet, your chubby hubby has to quit smoking and drinking. A regular 1 hour walk, no matter how difficult it seems at the beginning, is a must. Regular intake of medicines will make sure that the disease remains under control. Relaxing mind is easier said than done. The fatter the pay package the greater the tension! However, there is no harm in trying. For a start he should do 15 minutes of easy pranayams. My final point which should not only be beneficial to your husband, but also to everybody reading your thread is philosophical in nature. I am talking about the philosophy of detachment from material world up to some extent. From your various posts, any one can realise that your relatives, that term also includes your husband, are very materialistic in nature. He has to slowly change his outlook: less concentration on the dough, and more on general happiness. How does he achieve this? I hate religious gurus for their cunning nature, but I guess a religious guru can help your husband in this matter. Once detached from material world up to some extent, tension will automatically reduce to a great extent.
Thanks for the reply. Your uncle made a very good example of living the life. I appreciate your concern but as you know me only from the words so it's quiet possible to misunderstood. None of my family member is materialistic. Just wanted to make it clear. Anyways thanks for taking out your time.
Hi , For helping financially , see if You can put some rooms on rent... I assume you ppl are not going to use whole house now..
I agree with this advice. I think what you can do is to see where you can make improvements on the diet of whole family. Look up Google and youtube videos and TV channels. There is one which only does food and there is programme called "Peggy's Kitchen" she really gives brilliant recipes which are so healthy and nourishing and tasty as well. Check that out. If the whole family is on a healthy diet than your hubby will be more than willing to stick to this. Also if possible start an exercise regime. You don't need to join the gym there are again so many videos on the market and best of all if you try to involve the family in going for walks nothing bits this. As for the cleaning: do what you can without stressing yourself out. If you are happy and relaxed this will rub off on your whole family and things will start to improve. Depending on your qualifications etc you can work from home. And there are so many ways you can cut down on expenses without feeling that you are missing out. Above all have faith and suburi. God bless you all (remember nothing lasts for ever so your situation will improve and wont stay the same.
Thanks for the reply. Your reply giving me the positive energy..I will definitely look for Peggy's kitchen. Thanks for taking out time to reply.
