July 1st is celebrated as National Doctors day and it is an attempt to emphasise on the value of doctors in our lives and to offer our gratitude and respect for their relentless services.
The modern medicine , which is also known as Allopathy , is practiced approximately for the past two hundred years and gained immense popularity as of now. Even before the arrival of the allopathy medicines , there were numerous alternative and holistic methods , widely practiced to cure the diseases.
In earlier days , people lead their life much aligned to the nature comparing to the modern days.Nature played a pivotal role in curing the diseases and people were very much in sync with nature.
Nature always provides a layer of protection to our environment and to us before an eruption of outbreak.When an epidemic or a disease is about to surface, nature lends us a helping hand by facilitating an atmosphere for the growth of a curing herb to counter the disease, in our surrounding .As we failed to sync up with the nature , it goes unnoticed for us.
In earlier days , many of the routine diseases cured up in home itself and mothers of every home played a crucial role of passing this legacy of remedies to next generation and a Mother is the first hand doctor of any home. We somehow failed to follow up this legacy and for each and every common ailments most of us rush to the doctors and end up with pain staking antibiotics.
Whereas still few of the Parents treat and cure the common ailments with herbs and home remedies and We really appreciate those mothers – the first Doctors”.
When more number of parents take this self reliant initiative in their homes for the treatment of common ailments of the child , it will create a positive bonding between the mother and child.Thus a healthy , happy and positive atmosphere in the home.
Be the first doctor of your Home.
Be blessed by Divine and live the life healthy in tandem with the nature.
