Millionaire Health Isn’t About Money. It’s About Life.

Hi, my dear readers, I am Dr Prabath, creator of Millionaire Health Habits and owner of Unique Medical Cranbourne. Before I start my lifestyle coaching program, I want to introduce myself and the sequence of life-changing events that led me into this path of lifestyle coaching.

 

I am turning fifty next year and have been practising as a family physician in Melbourne, Australia, for over fifteen years. I have been very successful as a family physician and a small business owner. But I later realised I had focused solely on my financial health and ignored other healthy life aspects. I was getting richer financially, but was getting poorer physically, mentally, spiritually and socially. But the universe changed my direction by hammering me with a few life-changing events, and I want to share a few personal tragedies for the benefit of my readers 

A few days before easter 2020, I had everything I ever wanted. I had a great job and made money from the stock market and my businesses. I was healthy and had a great family life with two great kids. But despite having all these, I was not happy inside and was constantly complaining how boring life was, as it was the Covid era and I was living in Melbourne, the second most locked-down city in the world. Within a few days after my constant complaints, I was struck down by the universe for being ungrateful and not appreciating the wonderful life I had.

I still remember the day vividly. I left work and went to a restaurant to talk to the owner about organising a surprise birthday party for my dear wife. Then, I got back into my car and developed a sudden headache. The moment the headache came about, I knew instantly, being a doctor, that this was no ordinary headache 

The following day was the very first day after over five years that I didn’t go to work as a family physician, and I went for my first MRI of the brain. I still remember lying inside the machine, praying for a god I didn’t believe in and hoping I would grow old enough to see my kids. It’s strange that during that time waiting for the MRI report to come back, things like finances, my job, my investment, etc, didn’t come to my mind, and all I thought was how my kids and wife would survive if something happened to me. To cut a long story short, I was diagnosed with an acute cerebrospinal leakage, which essentially means I had a puncture in the fluid bag that surrounds the brain. I was bed-bound for over one month and had a crippling headache for over six months with associated constant humming in my year all day. 

Lying in bed for months, unable to walk, see the sun, or have a meal sitting down. Oh, how I wish how much I would give to get my “boring life” back. The simple things I took for granted, like walking, sitting on a chair, having a peaceful sleep, feeling the sun on my face, all these things that I never appreciated were taken away from me. Oh, how much I would have given to stand up without headaches again, sit down for a meal, and feel the sun on my face. To make matters worse, after over one month of being in bed, the very first day I left the house, I broke my right wrist and was in a cast for two months 

During these times, I realised that my life, which had only focused on money, was not authentic. I realised that a truly successful and happy life needed five pillars: financial wealth, physical health, mental and spiritual health, time wealth, and social wealth. 

My deepest despair

Lying in bed without physical health, mental health, or social wealth, I pondered on my past life and realised even before this crisis, my life was not healthy. To make matters worse, during the few months of being bed-bound and not working, the US stock market and the Crypto market collapsed,  which wiped away all my life savings and profits. Thus, I lost my financial health, leaving me without a single type of wealth

Funnily, now I realise that I had to lose everything before I started to realise what I always had, which went unappreciated, and change my values and add mental health, time wealth, spiritual health, etc., to my core values. It was a radical reawakening, like a forest regrowing after a wildfire or the Phoenix rising from the ashes. I gradually changed my life, and over the past few years, I achieved all five pillars of life. I am not saying I have excelled in all five pillars and have no room to improve, no, I have a long way to go, but I am confident that with the application of my routine and lifestyle, I am going to achieve the ultimate lifestyle rich in all five pillars
