Following the principles of a healthy lifestyle

Moreover, people stimulate their appetites when they are running or walking in the fresh air. This process gives them the wonderful feelings that come from the harmony of motion and appetite. Experts say that medicines cannot replace physical activity. Thus, the President of Turkmenistan noted that people should be active at any age. The Turkmen leader considers the health of people to be the main wealth of the country and conducts great work in this sphere. The example of the President of Turkmenistan is a guide and a great school for our compatriots.

The Turkmen leader wrote in the book ‘A Horse – a Symbol of Faithfulness and Happiness’, ‘Wherever history begins, there are the horse tracks at that time’. These words demonstrate that the ‘heavenly’ horses have had a special place and significance in the life of our people throughout the glorious history. The Turkmen people considered horses to be their wings, companions on the days of hunt, and loyal friends on holidays. People created a number of proverbs, including in ‘when you wake up in the morning, see your father first, and then see your horse’, ‘a horse is the best friend of a young man’, ‘horse is an old friend’, etc.
