In this insightful and practical talk, the speaker explores the “path less travelled” — the journey toward a genuinely healthy lifestyle. Highlighting four key pillars—sleep, diet, exercise, and a stress-free mind—he explains how modern habits often invert our priorities, leading to fatigue, illness, and imbalance. Through relatable examples and scientific insights, he urges the audience to rest well, eat mindfully, move regularly, and live calmly—because true fitness begins with balance, not extremes. Beyond his distinguished career in public service, Mr. Vijay Sohni is an accomplished international marathon runner and a proud Comrades Marathon finisher. He has been instrumental in organizing the Indore Marathon, inspiring thousands to take up fitness. As a coach and mentor, he champions running, cycling, and holistic well-being in the community. Today, he brings with him not just his professional insights, but also the endurance and spirit of a true athlete. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
