Natural cure of Haemorrhoids/piles
What is piles or haemorrhoids? How does it develop? How can this painful condition be prevented and what diet changes are needed? This article takes a closer look at this very common problem which many people suffer from today. Blame not nature Instead of blaming the unhygienic habits of living as the sole cause of haemorrhoids, the blame is placed on Mother Nature 'for having wrongly designed the human frame. Due to unhygienic living practices or repeated suppression of acute and chronic conditions with drugs, the tone of blood vessels get adversely affected. In such cases, the veins develop varicosity and become distended. What is known as piles or haemorrhoids is only varicosity of the veins inside or outside the anus. What happens during bowel movements? When the faecal matter has reached the end of the descending colon and when the system wants to expel it, an urge for defecation is felt. The rectum is then stretched open to let the stool pass through. The membranes
All about Tea
In most households, drinking tea first thing in the morning and later in the day is the norm. Some find it refreshing; others just addictive. Whatever your reasons maybe, if you are someone who is habituated to the ‘tea-drinking' practice, this article is for you. It will discuss the different types of tea, how the practice came into being and how you can get rid of this habit that does more harm than good. “Subah ki chai se neend khul jaati hai.” “Shaam ki chai se energy feel hoti hai.” Heard these lines before? We are sure you have. Many people around us are habituated towards consuming tea more than even twice a day. You'd be surprised to know that it is the second most-consumed beverage after water! From black tea, oolong, and white tea, to yellow and green tea: the market is full of so many varieties of teas. They have been marketed for reasons that include health benefits, as an energizing drink, as a means of socializing and even weight loss! T
Music therapy - An effective way to manage stress
Listening to a song or a music instrument does wonders in a stressful situation. Every individual has his or her own taste when it comes to music and should listen to music whichever he or she is comfortable with. Music could be a stress buster while you travel, work or relax after a hectic day at work. One could not force himself to listen to music which could be a stress by itself rather than alleviating it. What is Music Therapy? American Music Therapy Association defines Music Therapy as “Music Therapy is the clinical and evidence-based use of music intervention to accomplish individualized goals within a therapeutic relationship by a credentialed professional who has completed an approved music therapy program.” What is Stress? Physiological or biological stress is our body's response to a stressor or environmental condition. It could also explain how our body reacts to a challenge. During a stressed condition, our body's
Rejuvenation by Fasting
Mother nature is ready to rejuvenate? Are you willing? It is an ardent desire of every one of us to be healthy, strong till our last breath. But we have lost our instinct of how to remain healthy, happy and strong till our last day on planet Earth. I believe it was George Bernard Shaw who once remarked that since youth is such a wonderful thing. It's too bad it has to be wasted on the young. It is an observation that all of us who are "fifty-nine and holding", or past holding, can see merit in. Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could hold onto our youth until we had sense enough to know how to really enjoy it or if we could at least partially rejuvenate ourselves, once youth has fled? The search for eternal youth But in man's search for eternal youth nothing of the bizarre or unusual has worked. Brinkley 's goat gland transplantation was widely heralded for a time and Brown - Sequard's seminal fluid rejuvenator once attracted much interest. Th
Seeds – The Original Superfoods by Nature – Part 1
They are tiny, sometimes even smaller than a fingernail, but they pack a mighty punch when it comes to delivering nutrients. Yes, we are talking about the jewels of nutrition – edible seeds. Sadly, seeds don't get as much spotlight as their nutritional cousins, dry fruits, and nuts. Here, in this post, we give you the low-down on the best seeds, their benefits, and tips on how to add them to your diet. Why include seeds in your diet? Seeds are one of the best natural superfoods power-packed with nutrients. Each seed is power-packed with all essential nutrients needed for plants to germinate. They are live foods. Rich sources of fibre, heart-healthy fats, high-quality proteins, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and micronutrients – seeds are among the top natural foods when it comes to nutrient density per gram. For instance, sesame seeds are rich in calcium, pumpkin seeds are rich in iron, and so on. Which Seeds to Use? Nature has blessed us with a variety
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
Eat RAW food to HEAL!
Are we DESIGNED to eat raw LIVING FOOD? I mean, think about it, could it be that we were meant to simply pick and eat? That there was no mistake after all? That we are in fact perfect? All of us? How our body processes food? Well, we are all human beings, born with identical chemistry, the same organs, glands, and systems. Our glands and bodily functions are all the same. On the inside, we do not differ at all. Every human baby will drink their mother's milk if available, and if not, they will still be given the same formula to drink. If we look at nature, all species eat the same within their kind, their species. Every lion has the same diet, and every gorilla does too. This is because what we thrive on eating, is what we have been designed to eat. We are designed to eat raw fruits and vegetables, and this truly is our natural diet. We are tropical species, yes, we are primates. I like to simply call it food. What is the debate about different type of fo
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

ENERVATING EYES AND WEAK-LINKS
This article is an important one to understand the organism'sunique (and different) reactions to similar stimuli. I have received this question, lately: “I have been using computers for 10 years now! I use it almost 12-15 hours a day, even in a dark room. My eyes are best in its health. No vision loss! Your explanation of listening to the voice of the organism does not seem to apply for me! Can you explain, please?” The originality of the Voice of the Organism Before going to the explanation, let me remind the correlation of the voice of the organism. For an analysis of the voice of the organism, we need to understand the thumb-rule of ‘GOOD FEELING' Vs ‘BAD FEELING'. We need to reach to the SOURCE of the feeling, first. The source is the STIMULUS, if the stimulus is a natural one then the response is absolutely natural. The decision would be very easy, in this case. We can opt to carry on with the ‘good feelin
Healthy hair – Nourish your crowning glory from within
Worried about your hair loss, thinning or graying hair? Tried all kinds of shampoos, gels, gharelu nuskas, hair serums and nothing works? As a normal phenomeno, the average human scalp sheds between 50 and 100 hairs a day. However, when the rate of falling exceeds the rate of replenishment, it becomes a cause to tear your hair in frustration! Well, there may be a reason. Keep your hair on and read on. Truth behind healthy hair The state of health of a person is reflected in the state of the hair too. Our hair gets its nutrition from within. There are living cells in the hair bulb which get their nourishment from the blood to make good healthy hair. Taking care of the body's needs – physiological, mental and emotional needs with the correct lifestyle results in superior quality of blood which feeds the cells of the hair. When the quality of blood supplying the nutrition is good, the quality and colour of hair is good too. Did you know that hair growth and regenerati
DANCE OF DENSITY
This article is dedicated to and inspired by Herbert McGolfin Shelton's Natural Hygienic theories and the concept of STRUCTURE GOVERNS FUNCTIONS. Shelton was an American Naturopath who used to say, "Hygienic care is the only rational and radical care that has ever been administered to the sick in any age of the world in any place." [This is a line from his book, ‘Food Combining Made Easy'] Let me start with a few facts, picked up from Medical analyses. The percentage of water in our body – A grown-up healthy adult would have an average of 60-70% water in the body. [An infant would have approx. 80% water in the body.] In healthy conditions, Our muscles and kidneys contain more than 75% of water. Our brain and heart contain more than 70% of water. Our lung contains more than 80% of water. Even, the bones contain more than 30% of water. The healthy stool contains more than 75% of water. Other eliminations like sweat,
Walk to Freedom
Inside an average home, we take around a thousand steps a day to move about, which is a good 0.76 kilometre. A walk to the neighbourhood shop, say 500 metres away, will approximately take 650 steps to go one way and will be a trip total of around 1300 steps. Walking happens this simply! In our lifetime we connect to mother Earth with our feet, sharing our worries and thoughts with her and getting gently nourished back; making it truly a WALK TO FREEDOM. In every walk with nature, one receives far more than he seeks - John Muir It is the biggest joy to watch our children take their first ‘baby' steps. The little falls that they ignore and their natural taking to standing up and trying to walk, truly define us as the most unique species that evolved – one that would walk on this planet. A simple walk is a body ability that is a superb exercise in itself and is loaded with benefits. Yet we often discount the greatness of walking despite its simplicity and low in
