JAMMU, June 16: To strengthen their campaign further to aware the common masses about the ill effects of Cardiovascular diseases, Head Department of Cardiology, Government Medical College, Jammu, Dr Sushil Sharma in collaboration with SVS Charitable Trust conducted cardiac awareness cum health check up camp at SVS Degree College Rajouri. The camp was inaugurated by Shri Shri 1008 Swami Vishwatamanand Maharaj along with Dr Sushil Sharma amidst reverant and pious vedic invocations for universal peace and health for all.
Swami Vishwatamanand Maharaj told that wellness is more than simply the absence of disease. It is an active process directed toward a healthier, happier, and more fulfilling life and includes not only physical but also psychological and emotional dimensions. The related term well-being can be defined as one’s cognitive and affective evaluation and assessment of one’s life, including physical health, satisfaction, happiness, and a sense of fulfillment,” he said.
While interacting with the people Dr Sushil emphasized that spirituality and medical awareness can help improve quality of life for people with chronic diseases particularly with reference to cardiovascular diseases. “Negative psychological health encompasses depression, chronic stress, anxiety, anger, pessimism, and dissatisfaction with one’s current life. Positive psychological health is also multifaceted and may be characterized by a sense of optimism, sense of purpose, gratitude, resilience, positive affect (ie, positive emotion), and happiness,” Dr Sharma said.
He further maintained that the impact of religiosity on cardiovascular health reminds us as clinicians that a patient is not merely one or more physical disease states but a human being for whom we must consider not only physical but psychological aspects.
