India as a country is growing in every way. It includes the way we are giving girls the foundation to grow and be successful. National Girl Child Day is celebrated every year on January 24 to create public awareness about all the injustices faced by girls in our society. While we empower them, we also need to give health tips for their health tomorrow.

Health issues
Malnutrition and overnutrition are issues that must be checked. Hygiene issues are still prevalent, especially in semi-rural and rural areas. Anaemia troubles can be found among them. In many cases, menstruation issues like irregular periods or PCOS are found. Mobile addiction is common. In all these, education regarding health, sexual and physical, nutrition, and mental health are few things not taught that impact them as adults. It is time we give them help with health tips. Ayurveda has a lot to offer these growing girls in these times.

4. Medical knowledge: Information regarding the physical and mental changes must be given by a doctor. Regular check-ups help them handle issues before things get out of hand.
5. Personal time: While focusing on health, the girls also need to focus on their happiness for their mental health. Focus on hobbies and things that keep them happy.
6. Sleep: Good seven-to-eight-hour sleep is essential to staying healthy. Fix a routine to sleep and wake up. Avoid using digital devices near sleep time or any caffeine items.
