5 Practical Ways to Relieve Your Stress
Stress is a universal experience. From busy professionals to stay-at-home moms, teens to empty nesters; stress takes a heavy toll on the health and well-being of all. With stress levels increasing all over the world in recent years, it's not surprising that WHO has declared stress as a global epidemic. What is Stress Management, and what is it NOT? When they hear the word, “stress management,” most people think it's about removing all things that cause them stress. The truth is that it's not possible or desirable to eliminate all “stressors” from one's life. Some amount of stress is essential to keep you excited about life. The butterflies you get in your stomach before a first date, the adrenaline rush when doing something adventurous, the jittery feeling you get before an important work meeting – are examples of good stress (Eustress) that help you go beyond your capabilities and perform well.

Is Your Cookware Toxic?
We choose our food carefully to stay healthy but do we give equal attention to our cookware? Many types of cookware can poison our food and leave residual toxins in our body. Most of these toxins are metallic in nature and dangerous for our health. This article throws light on cookware toxicity, how it affects us and how to avoid it.

Are Germs Our Friends Or Enemies?
I am a mother of a two-year-old and am completely losing my head over whether I should get my little cherub vaccinated? The questions that keep me busy are whether I should believe “Big Pharma” and the medical advice passed on for ages that says vaccinations are a must for fighting against germs that cause disease in our bodies or take a more holistic view which posits that germs are not the cause of disease but an unhealthy internal ecosystem. I am also a seeker of answers to bigger issues related to disease- Are germs the sole cause of dangerous diseases or they have been given credit for too much? Or in short, are germs our real enemies? This is the reason why I decided to delve deep into the ‘germ' dogmas that require an urgent re-look. The Germ Theory Most of us have heard of the French biologist Louis Pasteur. He was the scientist who postulated that germs cause disease. He,in fact, came up with the Germ theory in the 1850s which is a simple st

Improve Eye Health during Work From Home - For Professionals & Students
Our society is increasingly becoming more and more digitized, with people spending their days online, either for work or play. People's screentime has increased exponentially, now that we all have to work at home and stay indoors. Carpal tunnel syndrome has now become commonplace, with corporate culture requiring many to work late hours in the night. This gradual step towards digitization is an inevitable phenomenon. I am also forced to spend hours together on my laptop every day, either for assignments, research, or talking to friends, and it can start to have a negative effect on the body. Around a year ago, I started noticing a slow decline in my vision - I could no longer see far away objects, like the numbers on a bus clearly, and I would get regular back pains from bad posture.

Summer time - Easy hacks to let off steam naturally
Summers during my childhood were the season of five rupee ice creams and lying under the ceiling fan on the cool floor after a long day of outside play. But nowadays, it is truly an inconvenience trying to keep cool. The heat and humidity can make you feel drowsy, like a lizard in the sun and it seriously cuts back my productive time. This discomfort from the heat is the worst during the night time, and it interferes with my sleep cycle. But like many people nowadays, I hesitate to turn on the AC, which often makes use of fuels like Hydro Fluro carbons that can be a thousand times more damaging to the environment than CO2. Besides, AC is not conducive to health too. And that got me thinking: why not try and repurpose some of my childhood techniques to stay cool as an adult? Here are some cheap and environment-friendly ways to reduce AC usage and keep your electric bill costs down. Learn how to use your windows: Heat coming in through windows makes up about half

In this part, we learn the true value of a supportive community and how beautiful a healthy teenager can be. Supporting your child through adolescence Help your child by providing a stable, safe and loving home environment. Create an atmosphere of honesty, mutual trust, and respect. Supporting them through physical changes Try to support your child in their self-expression, even if some of it seems odd to you, such as an extreme haircut or offbeat clothing choices. These may not be their permanent choice as their tastes keep changing. For example, a 15-year-old wanted a pixie cut, which became a boy-cut and stayed for a year.

Seeking the Right Balance
In this blog, I share the small changes I made in my life for better health and balance. Less is more and little things done right daily can overtime, bring big changes into one's life. The Bhagawad Gita, chapter 6 verse 17, says, “The one whose diet and movements are balanced, whose actions are proper, whose hours of sleeping and waking up are regular, and who follows the path of meditation, is the destroyer of pain and unhappiness.” In today's lifetime, when we are just eating more, sleeping less, and all the toxic gadgets have paved their way in to make our lives more vulnerable to the word “dis-ease”, this verse makes so much sense. This is very important to understand as we all are running behind excess monetary pleasure instead of finding the bliss of satisfaction in little things. Nobody knew about the word anxiety until every fourth person started suffering from it. Why are we not finding enough happiness in little things, as less

Anxiety in Children
What is anxiety? The word ‘anxiety' is commonly associated with the experience/feeling of nervousness, distress, apprehension, worry and may even have physical manifestations like sweating, nausea, tremors, headaches etc. Simply put, anxiety is our response to a trigger, which is usually something we are apprehensive about or scared of. The trigger may be real or imaginary. Interestingly, the physiological responses associated with anxiety are similar to the way our body responds to fear i.e. the flight-or-fight response. These essentially are a set of bodily changes (like increased heartbeat and blood pressure) that assist you in fighting or escaping as soon as a threat or danger is perceived. Is anxiety normal? Even in children? Anxiety, to some extent, is not only normal it is adaptive and has functional value. For example, if there is a real, physical threat in front of you then the feeling of anxiety will prompt you to do something about it (fight or es

What effect can this have on our health and how do we correct it? This article takes a closer look. Sitting and slouching Sitting continuously for many hours can have many health hazards. Some of us are required to sit more than others, hence we either profit or lose according to how we sit at our work, during leisure, while eating etc. depending upon the length of time sitting is demanded of us.

Working in an air conditioned environment? Take care of health the natural way
Air-conditioned rooms are highly polluted A newspaper report based on a research says - ''If you think you are breathing purely filtered air in an air-conditioned room, you are in for a rude shock. The air is not pure and harmless. It is found containing suspended metallic aluminium particles, which constitute a health hazard. Aluminium is chosen for air-conditioning mainly because of its high resistance to corrosion. On exposure to air, it forms a protective layer (oxide film) on the surface and this impedes further reaction. It is now speculated that this circulating air somehow activates the reaction of carbon dioxide and water with oxide film and underlying metal is affected. Reporting in environmental science technology, Canadian scientists say “Aluminium particles from corroded air-conditioner raise the pollution in the room to extremely high levels. Inhalation of aluminium dust gives rise to pulmonary fibrosis and causes structural changes in the lungs, causi
