Keeping warm during winter
Many people dread the approaching winter especially those who are weak or suffer from chronic diseases. Is eating heavy foods or stimulating drinks like tea, coffee, alcohol the way out? What is the source of body warmth? This article discusses some of these aspects. The winter is fast approaching, many old age persons [like me] and weak persons, patients of some chronic diseases find it very awful to negotiate the marauding winter especially in north Indian states, some lucky ones migrate to the warmer ambience of southern parts of the country. They will be guided by the following passage. The secret of keeping warm is the abundance of VITAL POWER, which can be obtained only by avoiding the wasteful expenditure of it in the effort to digest excessive food. And the more nutritious the food is, the greater is the waste of vital power, and the less is the balance available to keeping bodily warmth. Explained in easy terms is that one should eat light meals avoiding stimulants, suc
How To Use Wet Packs for Healing & Pain Relief
Our body is capable of healing itself, if we give it the right inputs. The use of water for pain relief, healing, and treatment of diseases is called Hydrotherapy. In this method water's temperature and pressure are used to stimulate blood circulation and equalization of body heat to promote healing. Given the fact that 70% of our body is made up of water, water plays a pivotal role in cleansing and healing. Hydrotherapy encompasses a broad range of approaches and therapeutic methods and Wet Packs is one of those. What is a Wet Pack? It is a water-soaked cloth that is wrapped around different body parts for healing. Why is Wet Pack Used? As per nature cure, the reason behind all diseases is the accumulation of toxins in our body. Wet packs help in eliminating those toxins from targeted body parts, hence help in relieving diseases and pains. How do Wet Packs Work? The application of a wet pack cools the specific body part. It creates a difference in temp

Grains are hard on digestion and being acidic in nature, they can cause health issues in the long run. Overeating grains means we are eating less of fruits and vegetables.

Understanding Yoga as the Integrated System of Holistic Wellness
With the emphasis on application promotion of the applied benefits of yoga, people are waking up to the potential that it holds. An increasing number of people is taking up yoga as a means to contain the low or high BP, keep it within the reference range or address diabetes or the hyperthyroid or hypothyroid. Though the application of yoga in any capacity is useful, however, it is time to invite people to pursue it in an integrated manner for holistic wellness. When we talk about the yogic application in an integrated manner, we mean that it can be used to work on all three aspects body, spirit, and mind simultaneously and harmoniously. There have been some curative schools which work on one aspect at a time. Especially talking about the modern form of treatment, they focus primarily on body and to some extent on the mind, they don't address the impact of inattentive lifestyle, on instinct and psyche, and spirit. What does the integrated system mean? The in
How to Simplify Eating Vegetable Salads In Busy Routine?
Yes, we all know salads are good for health. However well intentioned we may be, life happens and we find it difficult to keep up with our salad intake. In this article, we simplify the art of salad making and putting together simple yet tasty salads for everyday of the week. Read on to know more. We hope you read our post on why raw food is important! If you are still feeling stuck, let's get you started with veggie salads. Salads have that versatility to be a full-blown meal, the humility to stay as a side dish and the peppiness to be served as a snack! It is quick, easy and way healthier to prepare a salad than to cook a pot of food. But the truth is, no matter how good our intentions are to keep our diet healthier, in the constant tussle between the steamy pot and the colourful bowl of crunchy salad, the latter loses. If you have ever given a thought to it, you would realize that this failure has more to do with the pictures and ideas we invoke when we hear ‘salad&rs

The basic rhythm of our glands
Today there is a big rise in hormonal issues like PCOS and Thyroidism (Hypo or Hyper). Hormones take care of many functions of the whole body and help us continue our day to day activities with ease. But hormones are out of sync in today's lifestyle. How can we take care of this issue? Hormones get imbalanced because our glands do not release and stop them at the correct time i.e an overproduction or underproduction. The mechanism of systematic functioning is necessary for the harmonious function of our body. The feedback mechanism includes sending of hormones to the particular organ as per need and the gland controls when to stop sending hormones. But in some cases, this feedback mechanism stops functioning smoothly and this is when the disease starts. So how we can make our glands healthier with the correct diet and exercise for the Seven Major glands? 1.Testes and Ovaries: The sexual glands - testes in males and ovaries in females are the reproductive glands Pr

Green the Red : Chemical free eco friendly menstruation!
Issues faced by menstruating women world over Today the exposure of a menstruating woman to toxic chemicals is unbelievably high compared to women one or two generations ago. The reason being the use of sanitary pads or tampons during periods. Sanitary pads and tampons contain bleach, pesticides and other chemicals used for growing cotton, dioxins from plastics and gels used as absorbants. Once the menstrual blood soaks up, it creates an eco system of unhealthy microbes that are in direct contact not just with the vagina, but the urinary track and the digestive system. The exposure to these harmful chemicals and the microbes for continuous long hours cause havoc to the body. Environment pollution The disposal of used sanitary pads and tampons is a nightmare in most developing and under developed countries. They are clearly not biodegradable nor are they recyclable. In the developed countries, they are typically incinerated (combusted in a controlled industrial process) but in

Cook With Plant-based Chef Priya Vijan | Masterchef India Top 11 Contestant
Priya Vijan, the only Plant-based & Vegan chef in MasterChef India 2023, reflects on her journey from eating paranthas soaked in butter to completely switching to a plant-based diet. A 21-day experiment of consuming no dairy, changed her life. In 2019, Priya enrolled in a nutrition course and this is where she understood the importance of a plant-based diet and the negative impacts of animal products, dairy in particular. She did a 21-Day experiment of consuming zero dairy and realised she did not need to take her medicines for allergies & migraine as frequently as before. She went back to consuming dairy just to see the difference and the frequency of medicines went up again! Clearly, dairy did not agree with her stomach. The entire transition period of going off dairy took her six months. Born into a Punjabi household in Kashmirs' Baramulla, it wasn't easy for her, but the results of her experiment were surprising. “By the end of the per
Untold Truths About A2 Milk That You Must Know
There's a lot of talk around A2 milk nowadays. Are these facts or just hype? Is it truly better for health, more digestible and non-allergenic as claimed? Continue reading to know! Constituents of cow's milk Around 87-88% of cow's milk is water, with the remaining 12-13% consisting of solids like sugar, fat, proteins, and minerals. Casein and whey are the two forms of proteins found in cow's milk. Casein protein makes up around 80% of milk's protein.

Origins of A2 milk With the advent of the White Revolution in India, foreign cow breeds were brought in to increase milk production. This has resulted in classifying cows into two categories: A1 cows: Cow breeds from

This Is Why You Feel So Low on Energy
Understand your low energy levels from nature's perspective Question: I eat well and sleep well too.... but these days when I wake up in the morning, I don't seem to be having enough energy or strength as before. I just don't understand where I am going wrong? Answer: when you are waking up in the morning feeling tired and weak, it is an indicator to show that your energy is being drained somewhere.

Home composting
Every city is fighting with rising garbage levels. Many city corporations are struggling keeping up with the enormous amounts of waste generated. In many cities, kitchen waste, dry waste and toxic waste get mixed up and dumped in landfills which are toxic and destroy the health of the environment and people. So, how can citizens help to alleviate the problem? Garden city to garbage city? One of the battles we fight here in Bangalore is garbage. The city once known as Garden City is now called Garbage city because of the amount of garbage that piles up every day on the street corners. There are multiple reasons for this. The situation is similar in many other cities and towns across India and pretty much exists in most developing countries. Although the developed world looks cleaner and you don't spot garbage on the roadside, it does not necessarily mean that they have disposed it responsibly. What can we do? The most common, sensible thing to do with garbage is to
