બેઠક Bethak

દાંતે લુણ જે વાપરે, કવળે ઊંધું ખાય; ડાબું પડખું દાબી સુએ, તે ઘર વૈદ ન જાય.

dāṁtē luṇa jē vāparē, kavaḷē ūṁdhuṁ khāya; ḍābuṁ paḍakhuṁ dābī suē, tē ghara vaida na jāya.

Literally
One who uses salt on teeth, eats lying face down, and sleeps pressing his left side, a doctor does not enter his home.
What it means
Practicing daily healthy habits ensures freedom from disease.
