COVID-19 Pandemic - Making The Best Of The Worst Of Times
The global health crisis brought on to us by the COVID-19 virus has many perspectives. If you did not use extended lockdowns to introspect, analyze your life and the world around you, you are “Vimoodha” - not just a fool, but a colossal one. I call it a colossal compassion crisis. Because we, humans have endlessly and ruthlessly exploited natural environmental resources, animals, and each other to the point where our actions have boomeranged on us. It is also the law of nature or call it Karma - as you sow so shall you reap. We have brought upon ourselves our own misfortunes. Now Nature has pushed us back from all spheres of life - work, entertainment, education, and others. So that Nature and animals can get a breather and reclaim their lost, encroached upon spaces. Many people are still in bewilderment at why the pandemic? Please see how the collective actions of the masses have brought forth this crisis and examine your actions, choices - how good or bad t

Conquer Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) Naturally
As the winter season begins with a bit of holiday cheer, many people feel a little “off” or "down”. People question themselves - “Is there something wrong with me?” “Why am I so unhappy?” Often, their bodies are just responding to the darker and colder days. This type of depression may be classified as Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). What is the reason behind SAD? We are governed by circadian rhythms, our body's natural clock that helps regulate important functions, including sleep/wake cycles and mood. These rhythms shift during the onset of the winter season. Daytime gets shorter, reducing exposure to sunlight, yet our hectic schedules are unchanged and require us to keep going. This shift, depending on various factors namely genetics and body chemistry – affect mental health and could, in turn, have an impact on physical health creating a sense of sluggishness. It is also believed that a drop in serotonin in the

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

Tension, anxiety and depression - Deal with it naturally
NO Tranquilizers, please Consider today's scenario, it is well nigh impossible to find a person who is free from tension, anxiety, and depression of some sort or other may be of a lesser degree. For decades we have been declaring from rooftops that tranquillizers are no answer to the problem of tension. What the patient suffering from a state of anxiety or tension needs is an intelligent guidance offered to him to enable him to make a sensible effort aimed at making him understand the real causes of his mental condition and a positive encouragement to him by a father-figure, a Guru-figure or a Mother- figure or that of a suhriday friend, so that he may get back his mental health the sane, safe and sure way. The individual who chooses to become an addict to tranquillizers use every time he is mentally upset would only become worse and worse progressively & he would long reach the point of no return Our view in this regard has been supported by leading psychologi

Inner Child Therapy: Let us breathe freely
Remember those days when we danced in the rain and our mothers allowed us to be free and spontaneous? Remember that time when we forgot little worries but life went on fine? Remember the beautiful walk in the mountains, where oxygen was low but our lungs were full and free? Where are those days gone now, when sleep was so fulfilling and deep? We all know about the fact that we store the emotions in our mind but we are totally oblivious to the fact that our mind is in sync with our body. The emotions which we store by getting affected from day to day activities are stored in various body parts. When our emotions are disturbed we start getting into the vicious cycle of pain and disease. In our body, everything works in harmony. Inner child therapy is all about getting in touch with that part of you which is storing a certain emotion - going back to the time when you experienced a feeling of guilt, when your trust was broken when you faced embarrassment or knowing where your ang

Anger – The Continuum from Procreative to Destructive Energy
It is common sense that the root cause of anger lies in disappointment; a disappointment which comes from failure in the meeting of expectations. However, not every expectation leads to disappointment and not every disappointment leads to anger. Simply put, only expectations which are tied to our survival leadto anger. Now, we all have our own definition of survival. This is the reason why, in any situation, two people can have different emotions when hit by disappointment. Every moment that we live, we live with hope and hope gives birth to expectation. Since the definition of our survival is programmed in interdependence, our expectations are largely turned towards others. Therefore, almost every moment spent with expectation carries the potential to turn into anger. Moments spent without hope are moments without curiosity, which quickens the process of ageing. With age, we turn hopeless all the time by concluding on our relationships, career, family and self. We often dub it

Natural Ways to Quit Smoking-This Cancer Day Take Your First Step Towards Kicking The Butt
Cancer Day is observed on 4th February. Readers will remember the remarks of MARK TWAIN when the cigar-smoking habit badgered him. Often he tried to quit. He realized the harm and the necessity of quitting when he humorously said something like this - "Quit smoking. Why anybody can do that. I quit a thousand times." One wonders if the same recurrence of desire which caused Mark Twain to quit thousand times, only to return to the habit is a part of all the ‘so-called' cures that have been offered to destroy the habit. Here is a system that works since which is physiologically based. Breathing has always been involved in the smoking habit; whether cigars, cigarettes, pipes or, bidis. All smokers, when they reach for a cigarette feel deprived of air. The deep inspiration drawing the first smoke into the mouth is an effort to get more air, more oxygen, albeit contaminated with nicotine & whatnot. By the act of smoking, the mechanism of respirati

Memory Loss or Dementia
Unless there is physical damage or fault in our brain, there is nothing which we ever forget to remember. Human life is designed in such a way that it records every experience and stores it within. It is the size of our consciousness, which decides how much we can keep in our awareness while doing our daily routine. We are trained since childhood to be useful and productive; our consciousness is, thus, kept constrained or limited only to the issues which are important to earn a living and be a provider for the family and economy. Any other aspect of our life is kept buried inside. Take a case: I conducted 2 hours of lectures on senior citizens. I had no clue about their illnesses. Almost everyone was below 70 and it came as a surprise that almost 30% of them reported memory loss during an interaction. Most of them retired from a senior post as engineers and were well to do. In a rat race, we do not pay attention to holistic aspects of life and identify ourselves only wi

How Mental Disorders are formed
What is a mental disorder? Mental Disorder is a disease at the mind level. Like distress and disease, it is also caused by an imbalance in the Emotion-Body-Mind trio.

Based on the book - 'Meditation the cure', where the complete science and techniques are detailed out for any patient (care giver) to start reversing disorders at home, we have been helping patients with all kind of disorders.

Parent-Child Relationship
Today, the skillful use of praise and criticism to smooth parent-child relationships and increase harmony in the home seems more important than ever. Parents need not waste energy on crisis and confrontation that might have been avoided with more adept handling. Haim Ginott, author of "Between Parent and Child" and "Between Parents and teenagers", defines the goal of all criticism as the solution of a particular problem. Criticism that doesn't accomplish this goal has failed as a tool in family management and should be improved. In his book, Dr. Ginott insists that the following three rules are important when we criticize: Don't attack personally attributes Don't criticise character traits Deal with the situation at hand A friend whose son had a mishap with a ballpoint pen followed these rules with good results. Somehow, black permanent ink showed up one day, first on his shirt and jeans, then on the living room sofa. Such apparent c
