DR.SHWETA

2. VITAL ECONOMY
 How To Prevent Loss Of Energy
 How To Accumulate More Energy

3. VITAL FORCE
 The vital force or life energy is a manifestation of
the measurelessness powers of all forms of
subconsciousness superconsciousness and cosmic
consciousness.
 As a manifestation of chemical motion the body
appears small, but since these chemical motions
of the bodily cells are actually condensed waves
of consciousness, the body is potentially vast and
omnipresent.

4.  Vital energy (Pran) is the element of life.
 The process of circulation of vital energy is very
important.
 Vital energy is very fine element it cannot be
perceived by any instrument, so it is unkonown.
 Health means balance of vital energy.
 When the vital energy is unbalanced man
becomes sick.

5.  The greatest power in the universe is our own
vital force.
 Vital energy flows within living organism and
help to maintain balance in physiologically,
physically, mentally, and emotionally.
 Our body is weak or strong depending on how
much vital nerve energy we possess.
 Vital energy powers our nervous system, our
organs, and self-healing process.

6. SOURCE OF VITAL FORCE:
 All organs of our body function with the continual
supply of vital energy.
 Vital nerve energy fluctuates from day to day; even
hour to hour and so the efficiency of our body
functions varies as well.
 So to maintain the body’s efficiency we have to
restore the vital force which was used during our
whole day activity and SLEEP is the vital source
restorer.
 This is the only way to maintain our body vital force.

7.  Teaching the science of
concentration on the
inner life energy and will
power and thus
awakening one’s
consciousness of his
subtle spiritual nature.
 Strength comes from
within; not from the
muscles.
 Life is sustained from the
powers within; it does not
depend solely upon food
or exercise.

8.  The components of element
of life are:
1. Body
2. Breath
3. Vital energy(Pran)
4. Mind
5. Bhava/Aura (Abhamandal)
6. Karma
7. Chitta (Psyche)
 The process of circulation of
vital energy is very important
process.
 The process of blood
circulation is known to the
health science.
 Vital energy is very fine
element; it cannot be perceived
by any instrument, so it is
unknown.
 Health means balance of vital
energy. When vital energy is
unbalanced the man becomes
sick.

9.  There are many people
who have got them
examined in medical
institutes.
 The conclusion of the
examination is that he is
not sick, even though the
person is suffering a lot
inside.
 It means the person is not
having the sickness that can
be detected by instruments.
 The sickness is that of
unbalance.
 When he performs exercises
of balancing vital energy he
becomes healthy.
 Vital energy is the subject of
Yoga. At present it is not
included in Medical
Science.

10.  Vital energy is the main source
of life force.
 The body is managed by the
vital energy, breath is managed
by vital energy , mind and
speech are also managed by the
vital energy (manobal &
vachanbal).
 Balancing of vital energy
arranges the whole life. Physical
health gets upset if it gets
unbalanced.
 The whole life system gets
disorganised.
 Meditation is a process that keeps
the vital energy balanced.
 Meditation which is attained by
concentration, introvertness,
thoughtlessness, peace, calmness,
stability & homeostasis in action
of body and mind (the gross &
subtle forces).

11. HOW VITAL ENERGY GETS REDUCED?
 The reduction of vital nerve energy called
“Enervation”. There are four ways the vital
nerve energy gets used up:

12.  Physiologically: The body’s own processes
and functions.
 Physically: Our activities.
 Mentally: The thinking and brain processes.
 Emotionally: Our thoughts and feelings
affect our vital energy.

13. WHAT HAPPEN IF ENERGY GOES ON REDUCING?
 Any continuous indulgence in habits that use up
this vital nerve energy faster than it is restored,
eventually results in Enervation, and diminished
physiological efficiency.
 If this process continues, overall function gets
poorer and poorer until sickness and disease
begins.

14. CAUSES OF ENERVATION..?

15.  Constitutional strength:
 The physical and mental attributes we are born
with. This includes genetics, temperament, and
the inherent strengths and weaknesses of different
systems within the body.
Overwork:
 Work is good, but the person who intemperately
keeps at it for unreasonable time without change
or rest is asking for trouble.

16.  Lack of Sleep:
 Number one is usually connected with number two; but
there are many other things in our culture that cause this.
One is that the very attitude towards sleep has changed
dramatically in the last century. In 1880s the average adult
slept 9 hours, now-a-days the average is much less.
 Lack of Rest Periods:
 Sure people take breaks, but mostly to stuff caffeine and
sugary foods into their bodies to push themselves to keep
going. Or they ‘unwind’ by sitting in front of a T.V. that
actually stresses the brain rather than relaxing it.

17.  Overeating and eating too frequently:
 It takes vital energy to digest and eliminate and when
the stomach and other digestive organs are kept on
the job without rest—their efficiency decreases and
energy is lost rather than gained.
 Use of Stimulants:
 Tea, coffee, cola, soft drinks and pep pills, whip up a
tired body to keep running and so the damage to the
overall vital force of the system can become
irreparable. If you keep beating a tired horse,
eventually it dies.

18.  Excessive Sexual Indulgence:
 A great drain on the Vitality of a body.
 Stress:
 A general term that includes all exhausting factors in
our families, work and environment.
 Lack of Healthful Exercise:
 Exercise should be relaxing and low stress to be
healthful. Even some who ‘exercise’ regularly
choose forms of ‘working out’ and stressful sports
that do more harm than good.

19. EXAMPLE:
 Suppose we have 2 patients in the same condition of Enervation
 Patient A: We put him on a strict regime:
Good food—lots of it whether he likes it or not.
Exercise 10 minutes each hour.
Sunbath 20 minutes a day regularly.
Music is good so we pipe it into his room continually.
We give him hot baths to relax him and cold showers to toughen him up.
We give him frequent talks to teach him to be good and do good.
 Patient B: We put him to bed and let him rest. We feed him good food if
he wants it and let him decide if he feels like moving, sunning, music
and so on. We encourage him to follow his body’s innate healing
instinct.

20. RESULT:
 Patient B will progress much faster than Patient
A; in fact Patient A will likely get worse.
 Remember, balance is the key; we have to
respect your body’s wisdom and give it what it
wants. It is by ignoring the body’s needs that got
us sick to start with—more of the same will never
heal us.

21. REBUILDING YOUR VITAL ENERGY/ VITAL
ECONOMY:

22.  By proper and sufficient sleep.
 Daily exercise (according to body’s need).
 Avoid using stimulants.
 By proper rest and relaxation.
 By removing the bad habits and replacing them with good or by
follows the laws of nature i.e. shareerdharma, dincharya.
 To assist our body to cleanse and get rid of toxins. Proper
hydration; colonics; cleansing herbs and juices can help in this.
 Allow sufficient time for the results: going quickly from one
thing to another seldom does anything but increase Enervation.
 Rely on our body’s innate healing intelligence rather than what
others tell us that we ought to be doing.

23. CONCLUSION:
 Get more rest and sleep and so allow the body to
regain its lost equilibrium, eat less. Your food
should be simple and palatable (Pleasant to taste).
Avoid eating unhealthy complex junk foods.
