Are you a Frielth? #MyFriendAlexa

Posted on 1st September 201818th September 2018 by Mayuri


Top post on IndiBlogger, the biggest community of Indian Bloggers
Have you heard of the word ‘Frielth’? Probably not!

I hadn’t heard of it either, till I coined it. Yes, I’ve created this word, which is a combination of Friend + Health = Frielth

Let me explain.

As I have grown with friends I have realised that being a friend entails heart-to-heart talks, tiffs, pity parties, celebrating together, traveling together, and more along those lines.

As I, and my friendships, grow older I realised that there is one very important aspect of friendship that is rarely given the attention it deserves. That aspect is health, your health and your friends health.

When I meet friends it is almost always over meals. Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Coffee, Brunch or just Desserts, it could be anything. Even if we meet for a movie, the goodies that are mandatory at a theatre, Caramel Popcorn, Samosa, Ice cream, are part of the meet. Meeting at each other’s homes too has food and drink involved.

Earlier this year I began meeting a friend for a morning walk, only because neither of us could coordinate our schedules to meet during the day. We talked away 19 to a dozen as we averaged an 8 km walk most mornings of the week. Catching up, endless jabber and lots of calories burnt. Win-win.

Another friend and I also meet-up in Malls, with our walking shoes on. We walk the length and breadth of the mall as we chatter away, sans pollution, traffic or bad weather. How’s that?

Then 3 months ago I embarked on and successfully completed a No Sugar Challenge. The results of which were so inspiring that a few of my friends took it up as well. The ones who persisted and completed the challenge saw amazing results, and couldn’t thank me enough for sharing the Challenge with them and for the encouragement that kept them going.

Frielth-Friend-Health-sirimiri

That is when I thought of Frielth – a Friend who looks out for their Friends Health. Click To Tweet

Imagine having a Frielth. A friend who encourages friends, who partners friends and is there for friends to help them get healthy. Now imagine being that friend, one who does all that and gets healthier along with friends.

I am bored of meeting up over meals and movies every time we do and have realised there is so much else to do.

Why not come up with fun activities to do together, like meeting for a walk, or at a spa? By meeting over an exercise session you and your friend both love. Or taking up a health beneficial challenge together. Or joining / forming a Book Club together. or taking a class together, learning something you always wanted to?

Meeting, catching up and getting healthier as you do? Not too much to ask, is it?

Health is truly wealth. Help your friends earn it even as they help you earn yours. For don’t we and our friends need to be fit and fine for a long, long time, as there is so much that we need to do together and so many people, to discuss about!

I am taking my blog to the next level, with #MyFriendAlexa by Blogchatter

    Nice idea. We did morning walks with friends last summer and it was fun. With kids schools and house work not getting time to focus on my health. A zumba session in the evening with friends would also help.

    Being a physical exercise enthusiast(to some extend a body builder) once i tried to arrange physical exercise season with friend but no one responded, the present experience is same.
    The idea of science also flopped. “Freilth” is a nice word,liked it.

    A decade ago, I used to meet my friends for chai sessions at a tapri which we used to haunt when we studied together. Now, in our mid 30s whenever we meet, it’s always for a beer or two. Then, one fineday we decided to meet up on a sunday morning and climb Nandi Hills. 3 hours and 18 arduous kilometers later, we felt refreshed and totally awesome. We made it a point to do this at least once every month. Your post just emphasizes how easily we let go of our health and the potential opportunities to indulge in activities to improve our health. Very good write.

    What a brilliant post, Mayuri and something that resonates with me so well. Health. I always wonder why we have to meet friends over lunch, brunch or dinner, why food has to be such an integral part of our meet up. I loved this take on meeting friends over walks, spas, etc.

    Will do that the next time…sounds fun!!

    That’s a nice line of thought. I believe in our school days, meetings with friends was mostly restricted to healthy options like playing outdoors, reading, going to the library etc. Over the years this scenario has changed. Your ideas definitely add lots of value to friendship.

    Sugar really is incredible stuff when you think about it. Few things can addict us in such a way and still allow us to function for years on end before showing any real, ill health effects. It’s sweet, it’s comforting, and it’s widely accepted as a normal part of life. I quit Sugar in July 2018 and I have lost 2kgs and I have completely decided to live a life without sugar. No added sugars, no artificial sweeteners, no fake sugars, no syrup – Nothing! It really helped with weight management, increased energy, fewer cravings, improved skin. It’s getting easier to live without added sugar and I legitimately feel so much better.

    Frielth! Now that is a new one but one that we need many of in our lives to push us and encourage us to be fitter. Your “No sugar challenge” was the one I accepted too and have been feeling fabulous since. Posts like these are encouraging and motivate us to make simple, small changes to a healthier lifestyle. For me, you’re my frielth too. Cheers!

    This is such a refreshing read but I’ve a sneaky feeling that very few of my friends would agree to bond over a walk-around-the-lake session. Sadly, very few can avoid the lure of cafes and malls these days. “No-Sugar-Challenge” sounds amazing. Would give it a try.

    Indeed a very profound thought.
    Mayuri, you have very creatively thought through to coin such an interesting word.

    Health and friends are such an important aspect of our life. And it does happen at some point in our life we neglect our health and also take our friends for granted. This combination is truly magical provided we have the conviction and the consistency to carry the balance forward. Both for good health and friendship to build and nurture needs lot of commitment and efforts. We often falter. It is a two way channel, the more we do for our health, the better we become as a human being, our outlook towards life, the more we do for our friends, the reciprocation, the more we get back in different ways.

    The idea of building the friendship on a morning walk or being inside the mall, and walking through our talk…is a good way to manage our engagement and also get our things going. I have always loved walking and do so religiously, so your thought connected with me instantly. The choice of food and the variety in the spread keeps our taste buds tantalizing and we need to provide that anchor to our temptation, always not easy and when the calorie-meter goes up, we need to be careful and the walk does the work. Motivating to walk, we need the support of our good friend, companionship makes a huge difference in our life.
    😀

    Awesome. I liked your invention. You are right mostly lunch or dinner are common ideas behind most of the meetups. Unless you make an effort to change it, it continues to remain the same. I meet my friends for morning and evening walks. Since I go regularly for a walk so they also join me because of different schedules that doesn’t leave ya enough room to meet at each other’s places.

    In this fast-paced Mumbai life, I wish I get time to concentrate more on my health and have a frielth as well. But it’s such a lovely thought and you are practicing it is simply great, Mayuri.

    The first thought that came to my mind on reading the word ‘Frielth’ was something fiendish and sinister, but liked the idea you came up with better Mayuri. It is a wonderful idea to meet up with friends over exercise.. Good for emotional health as well

    ‘Frielth’- An interesting word to combine the two most important aspects of our life, Friends and Health. Friends are our life support system. And in order to make our life function properly, we need to pay attention to our friend’s health.
    I do have fun meetings with my friends, but at the same time always encourage and accompany my friends for a healthy session.
    Great post Mayuri!

    Now that’s an awesome term that you have coined. So one of my friends and I have been planning to meet forever. She stays quite close by but with our day long domestic commitments, we are never able to make it. I think next time I meet her, I am going to discuss this concept with her.

    Though on second thoughts, we have all had or been a frielth some time or the other in life. But having a formal term define the win-win friends is a good feeling.
