Then, what is that one thing that when being possessed by us, makes us feel happy? We are all aware that happiness is inside our body not outside. So, It has definitely made friends with one thing inside us which is our sound health. Now, let us observe the relationship between health and happiness.....
If we do exercise, do we feel happy?
If we go on a walk, then again, do we feel the presence of joy with a smile on our faces?
Do we feel relaxed and very light if we evacuate our beds properly in the morning?

If the answer to all the above questions is "YES", then this directly means that if we do healthy things, those things that are in favour of our body system, we feel relaxed, happy, and very satisfied.
