HOW TO BALANCE OUR CHAKRAS?

VISUALIZATION TECHNIQUE

💟💟

THE FOLLOWING VISUALIZATION SEQUENCE CAN BE SUBSTITUTED FOR THE VISUALIZATIONS FROM "RAPID IMAGES" TO "GOLDEN EGG" AND COMPLETED WITH "RESOLVE" AND "FINISH" AS ABOVE.

PSYCHIC CENTRES :❤

VISUALIZATION OF CHAKRAS IN THE PHYSICAL BODY, STARTING FROM THE BOTTOM AND PROGRESSING UPWARDS. FIRST THERE IS MOOLADHARA CHAKRA, SITUATED IN THE PERINEUM IN MEN, BETWEEN THE ANUS AND THE GENITALS, AND IN WOMEN AT THE CERVIX. CONCENTRATE ON THE MOOLADHARA PSYCHIC CENTRE. THE SECOND CHAKRA IS CALLED SWADHISTHANA AND IS LOCATED AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SPINAL CORD, IN THE COCCYX. CONCENTRATE ON SWADHISTHANA. THE THIRD CHAKRA IS MANIPURA, LOCATED IN THE SPINAL CORD BEHIND THE NAVEL.

THE SYMBOLS OF CHAKRAS
👀👀

VISUALIZATION OF THE CHAKRA SYMBOLS, THE SYMBOLS OF THE SPYCHIC CENTRES. WHEN YOUR CONCENTRATED CONSCIOUSNESS TOUCHES THE RIGHT SPOT OF THE PARTICULAR CHAKRA, THEN THE APPROPRIATE SYMBOL OR VISION WILL FLOWER WITHIN YOUR AWARENESS.

THE PSYCHIC SYMBOL OF MOOLADHARA IS RED INVERTED TRIANGLE. CONCENTRATE ON MOOLADHARA AND IMAGINE A RED INVERTED TRIANGLE. SWADHISTHANA AND VISUALIZE THE UNCONSCIOUS IN THE FORM OF WAVES ON A VAST OCEAN AT NIGHT. A BRIGHT YELLOW SUNFLOWER IS THE SYMBOLD FOR MANIPURA. CONCENTRATE ON MANIPURA AND VISUALIZE THIS. COMCENTRATE ON ANAHATA, SEE A TINY FLAME OF LIGHT ON A SMALL LAMP, BURNING IN THE ABSOLUTE DARKNESS OF A VERY BIG ROOM, THE WHOLE UNIVERSE IS FILLED WITH A DARK ATMOSPHERE, AND IN A CORNER A TINY OIL LAMP BURNS WITH A GOLDEN FLAME. THE PSYCHIC SYMBOL FOR VISUDDHI IS COLD DROPS OF NECTAR... CONCENTRATE ON COLD DROPS OF NECTAR. AJNA IS THE SEAT OF INTUITION, CONCENTRATE ON AJNA. VISUALIZE A CRECENT MOON AT NIGHT, THAT IS BINDU. AND LASTLY SAHASRARA IS VISUALZED AS THE FIREPLACE WHERE THE RITUALS ARE PERFORMED, INITIATIONS ARE GIVEN AND WORSHIP IS CARRIED OUT... THE FIREPLACE WITH THE BURNING FIRE, BIG TONGUE OF FLAME.

HOW TO PRACTICE

MEDITATION INTERESTLY?

ASANAS ❤

PAIN, STIFFNESS AND GENERAL TENSION IN THE BODY ARE GREAT OBSTACLES TO THE PRACTICE OF YOGA NIDRA. THEREFORE, YOGA NIDRA SHOULD IDEALLY BE PERFORMED AFTER YOGA ASANAS. A TYPICAL SEQUENCE COULD BE AS FOLLOWS : PAWANMUKTASANA, SHAVASANA - FOR BEGINNERS, SARVANGASANA, HALASANA, MATSYASANA, PASCHIMOTTANASANA, BHUJANGASANA, SHALABASANA OR SIRSHASANA - FOR MORE ADVANCED PRACTITIONERS.

crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

AS A SHORTER ALTERNATIVE TO THIS SERIES, SIX TO TWELVE ROUNDS OF SURYA NAMASKARA IS EXCELLENT FOR LEESENING THE JOINTS AND MUSCLES AND MESSAGING THE INTERNAL ORGANS. NAUKASANA PRACTICED THREE TO FIVE TIMES INDUCES GENERAL PHYSICAL RELAXATION AND IS AN EXCELLENT PREPARATION FOR YOGA NIDRA.

POSITION👀

YOGA NIDRA IS PRACTISED IN SHAVASANA. SCIENTIFIC STUDIES HAVE SHOWN THAT THIS IS THE POSITION MOST CONDUCIVE TO RELAXATION, SINCE IT REDUCES SENSORY STIMULATION TO THE MINUMUM. ONE SHOULD LIE ON THE BACK ON A BLANKET OR THIN MAT PLACED ON THE FLOOR. THE SPINE SHOULD BE STRAIGHT. THE ARMS SHOULD BE STRAIGHT AND PLACED SLIGHTLY AWAY FROM THE BODY. THE HANDS SHOULD BE RELAXED, PALMS UPWARD, WITH THE FINGERS SLIGHTLY BENT. ALTERNATIVELY, THE HANDS MAY BE PLACED FLAT, ONE OVER THE OTHER , ON THE CHEST, WITH THE ELBOWS ON THE FLOOR. WHILE THIS INCREASES PHYSICAL CONTACT, IT IS SUITABLE FOR PERSONS WHO FIND THE PREFERRED POSITION UNCOMFORTABLE. THE LEGS SHOULD BE STRAIGHT AND PLACED THIRTY TO THIRTY-FIVE CENTIMETRES APART IN ORDER TO AVOID CONTACT BETWEEN THE THIGHS.

crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

IDEALLY, NO PILLOW SHOULD BE USED. HOWEVER, IF THIS IS UNCOMFORTABLE, A THIN PILLOW OR FOLDED BLANKET MAY BE PLACED UNDER THE HEAD. THE CORNERS OF THE PILLOW SHOULD BE UNDER THE SHOULDERS IN ORDER TO RELAX THE NECK AND SHOULDERS. THINCK PILLOWS SHOULD NOT BE USED, SINCE THEY CAUSE TENSION IN THE NECK. THE LOWER BACK MAY BE SUPPORTED BY A SMALL PILLOW IF PAIN OR DISCOMFORT IS FELT IN THIS AREA DURING THE PRACTICE OF YOGA NIDRA.

ALTHOUGH SHAVASANA IS THE BEST POSITION FOR YOGA NIDRA. IT CAN ALSO BE PRACTISED IN A SITTING POSTURE OR WHILE STANDING. IF YOU HAVE A TENDENCY TO ALL ASLEEP VERY QUICKLY IN YOGA NIDRA, THEN IT IS BETTER TO PRACTICE WHILE STANDING.

❤ PATH OF SUCCESS

YOGA NIDRA CAN BE UTILIZED TO DEAL WITH ANTICIPATED STRESS BY A PROCESS OF "LIVING IN ADVANCE" . EVERY FORSEEABLE PHYSICAL AND MENTAL DETAIL OF A STRESSFUL EVENT OR ENCOUNTER IS REHEARSED IN THE IMAGINATION AS IF IT WERE HAPPENING PERFECTLY. THIS IS ONE OF THE GREATEST OF ALL YOGIC PRACTICES FOR SUCCEEDING IN LIFE.

WORRY ORIGINATES IN THE ATTEMPT TO WILL A STRESSFUL SITUATION AWAY. THIS ONLY INCREASES ITS STRESSFULNESS, EXAGGERATING IT TO THE POINT OF LOSS OF CONFIDENCE, ANXIETY NEUROSIS, PSYCHOSOMATIC DISEASE AND FAILURE IN LIFE. BUT EVEN WILL POWER FAILS, THE IMAGINATION SUCCEEDS.

BY UTILIZING THE POSITIVE FORCE OF IMAGINATION AND CONSCIOUSLY DIRECTING INTO THE FUTURE, A COURSE OF ACTION CAN BE PLOTTED WHICH LEAVES NO ROOM FOR FAILURE. UNPREDICTABLE OUTCOMES A PROCESS OF "CONSCIOUS ENACTMENT".

IN RECENT YEARS THIS PROCESS HAS BEEN RECOGNIZED BY SOME OUTSTANDING SPORTSMEN, COACHES AND TRAINERS, WHO ARE UTILIZING IT TO ENHANCE THEIR PERFORMANCE AND BRING HOME GOLD MEDALS. HOWEVER, YOGA NIDRA'S REAL POTENTIAL AS A TECHNIQUE OF SELF-REALIZATION HAS AS YET BEEN BARELY GLIMPSED, IT CAN TRANSFORM EACH EVENT AND SITUATION OF LIFE, WITHOUT EXCEPTION, INTO A WINDFALL AND A MILESTONE.

SAY GOOD BYE TO DISEASES!

ACHIEVING HEALTHY LIFE

crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

MANY OF US WOULD LIKE TO ACHIEVE TOTAL HEALTH OF LIFELONG PERIOD, BIT SIMPLY DESIRE TO NOT SUFFICIENT TO LEAD TO ANY RESULTS. WE NEED TO INTENSIFY THIS DESIRE SO THAT ACTIONS COME OUT OF IT. THESE ACTIONS CAN BE CLASSIFIED IN TWO MAJOR CATEGORIES.

PROPER FOOD INTAKE AND ITS TIMELINESS
REGULAR PHYSICAL EXERCISES AND MEDITATION (I.E. YOGA)

MY SUGGESTIONS ON THESE TWO IMPORTANT SUBJECTS ARE BASED ON TEACHINGS FROM MY ELDERS, MY EXPERIMENTS ON MY OWN BODY AND ALSO THOUGHTS WHICH HAVE COME OUT DURING MEDITATION. INFACT, BOTH OF ABOVE SUBJECTS ARE COMPLIMENTARY TO EACH OTHER. YOGA CANNOT BE PRACTISED FRUITFULLY WITHOUT PROPER DIET CONTROL AND MIND YOU, PROPER DIET IS NOT COSTLY, RATHER IT IS CHEAPER. YOGA AND PROPER FOOD BRINGS YOU CLOSE TO THE NATURE AND THEREFORE IT HAS SYNERGIC IMPACT TO YOUR HAPPINESS AND HAPPINESS IS THE KEY TO HEALTH. HEALTH IS THE GREATEST WEALTH FOR EVERYONE. WORRIES MAKE YOU FALL SICK AND WORRYING ABOUT YOUR SICKESS DRIVES YOU TO A VICIOUS CIRCLE MAKING IT MORE AND MORE DIFFICULT TO COME OUT OF IT.

crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

HEALING IS VERY MUCH IMPORTANT FOR ALL OF US, IF YOU WANT TO GET OUT OF VICIOUS CIRCLE OF DISEASE. YOU NEED HEALING WHICH YOU MAY GET THROUGH SPIRITUALLY, PURE HUMAN LOVE (ESPECIALLY WITH YOUNG CHILDREN, MOTHER, SIBLINGS, CLOSE FRIENDS OR SPOUSE) OR BY INNER STRENGTH DEVELOPED BY GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR HOBBIES, SUCCESS IN YOUR WORKING LIFE OR MANY OTHER RESOURCES YOU NEED TO EXPLORE. WHEN YOU ARE COMPLETELY IMMERSED IN ANY WORK, YOU GET SOLACE. YOU DO NOT FEEL HUNGREY AND ANY OTHER WORRY, THIS STATE IS CLOSE TO YOGA. YOU MIGHT HAVE OBSERVED THAT THOSE PERSONS, WHO HAVE LIVED LONGER LIFE, HAVE NORMALLY FOLLOWED THOROUGH DISCIPLINE IN FOOD HABITS AND SOME SORT OF PHYSICAL AND MENTAL EXERCISES. WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS, WE REALLY FEEL LAZY AND THIS LAZINESS OR WANT OF LITTLE MORE COMFORT MAKES US IDLE AND WE GET IN TRAP OF TENDENCY OF GETTING IDLE. THIS CAN LEAD TO LACK OF ENERGY AND REAL ENERGY ALWAYS COME FROM WITHIN. WE NORMALLY FORGET THIS FORMULA AND SEEK ENERGY IN MEDICINES OF FOOD. WE REGULARLY NEED ENERGY AND RELAXATION TO KEEP OUR ORGANS VITALIZED. THIS CYCLE SHOULD NEVER BREAK.

💫💟💫💟💫

TAKING FOOD IS INSUFFICIENT TO MAKE YOU HEALTHY, BECAUSE IT IS EQUALLY IMPORTANT TO DIGEST IT PROPER. SOMETIMES IF WE TAKE MORE AND MORE NUTRITIOUS FOOD, OUR BODY IS NOT READY TO ACCEPT IT AND DIGESTION ITSELF GETS UPSET. FIRST KEY TO REMAIN HEALTHY IS TO KEEP OUR DIGESTION SMOOTH ON REGULAR AND CONTINUOUS BASIS, HENCE THE IMPORTANCE OF TYPE OF FOOD SUITABLE FOR YOU AND ALSO THE QUANTITY. ENERGY PRODUCED FROM OUR FOOD INTAKE NEEDS TO COMBINE WITH OUR MENTAL OR INTERNAL ENERGY TO HAVE SYNERGIC EFFECT. WE GET LOT OF ENERGY FROM INSPIRATION AND THUS INSPIRING OTHERS IS REALLY GREAT WORK EVERYONE SHOULD DO. IT IS GREAT SERVICE TO MANKIND AND THIS SERVICE FURTHER IMPROVES OUR MORALE TO REPEATEDLY TO BETTER HAVING MULTIPLYING EFFECT. THIS CAN BETTER UNDERSTOOD BY EXPERIENCE ONLY, ONCE YOU PLUNGE INTO IT, YOU GET THE REAL TASTE.

crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

OUR BODY ORGANS ALSO NEED MAINTANANCE AND FOR THAT PURPOSE, WE CLEAN IT SUPERFICIALLY BY WATER AND BODY CLEANSING SOAPS. INTERNAL ORGANS LIKE BONES, JOINTS, LUNGS, KIDNEY, AND MUSCLES ALSO NEED CLEANING AND FOR THAT PURPOSE EXERCISES AND DEEP BREATHING (FLUSH IN AND OUT BY AIR) ARE VERY IMPORTANT . WE CANNOT SIMPLY HAVE ANY SORT OF MOVEMENT AND DEEP BREATHE. YOGA FACILITATES SYSTAMATIC METHOD TO DO IT, SO THAT WE GET MAXIMUM ADVANTAGE OF OUR EFFORTS IN THE FORM OF WORKOUT, DEEP BREATH AND MEDITATION. WE WILL DISCUSS IN DETAILS ABOUT THIS IN UNCOMING SECTIONS, HOWEVER CURIOSITY IS VERY IMPORTANT TO PUT THEM INTO ACTION. WITHOUT ACTION, NOTHING CAN BE ACHIEVED AND THEREFORE PLANNING AND ACTION BOTH SHOULD GO TOGETHER.

THE QUALITY AND
QUANTITY OF FOOD !

AS A NORMAL PRACTICE, WE KEEP IN EATING THE FOOD TILL WE FINALLY REALIZE THAT OUR STOMACH IS FULL. HERE IS A CATCH THAT TILL YOU FEEL THE ALARM FROM STOMACH, IT IS VERY LATE. YOU MIGHT HAVE ALREADY TAKEN OVERDOSE BECAUE OF THIS INFORMATION LAG AND HENCE IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO HAVE FIX NUMBER OF CHAPATTIS OR QUANTITY OF RICE BASED ON YOUR EXPERIENCE. IF YOU FEEL LITTLE BURNING SENSATION IN YOUR CHEST, YOU NEET TO REDUCE THE QUANTITY OF RICE AND CHAPATTIS, WHEREAS QUANTITY OF SALAD, FRUITS, BUTTERMILK AND LIGHT VEGETABLES CAN BE REGULATED TO SUIT YOUR TASTE AND ALSO NEED. AVOIDING OVEREATING IS VERY MUCH IMPORTANT FOR PROPER HEATH AND YOU WILL LEARN THIS CONTROL AUTOMATICALLY IF YOU PRACTICE YOGA ON REGULAR BASIS.

WATER

WATER IS VERY IMPORTANT AND EQUALLY IMPORTANT IS HOW TO TAKE IT AND WHEN OT TAKE IT. AS A RULE PLEASE DO NOT DRINK WATER DURING AND ONE HOUR BEFORE AND AFTER MEALS. AT OTHER INTERVALS, WATER NEEDS TO BE CONSUMED AS MUCH YOU FEEL GOOD FOR YOU AS WATER IS GOOD SOURCE OF ENERGY. TRY TO INCREASE THIS QUANTITY GRADUALLY AND DRINKING NORMAL WATER (NOT COLD AND NOT HOT) IS BEST SUITED, BUT WATER NEEDS TO BE SIPPED GRADUALLY TOO WITH HELP OF GLASS, NOT BOTTLES. PLASTIC BOTTLES ARE DIFFICULT TO CLEAN AND THESE ARE REALLY HARMFUL, BUT WHENEVER FORCED TO TAKE THE SAME, IT SHOULD BE CLEANED VERY FREQUENTLY.

WATER GIVES YOU ENERGY IF YOU DRINK WITH PROPER INTEREST. LUKE WARM WATER IS REALLY GOOD FOR HEALTH AS IT HELPS DISSOLVING FATS AND OILS INSIDE THE BODY. AS YOU KNOW MELTING POINT IS HIGHER AT HIGH PRESSURE INSIDE THE BODY. COLD WATER HELPS SOLIDIFYING THESE OILS AND FATS, WHICH GET ACCUMULATED IN THE INTERNAL ORGANS. HENCE WE NEED TO AVOID DRINKING COLD WATER. LIKE WARM WATER OR NORMAL WATER IS BEST SUITED FOR DRINKING PURPOSE. ALSO YOU MAY FEEL THAT AFTER BRUSNING YOUR TEETH, YOU FEEL BETTER TASTE IN WATER. TRY TO TAKE MORE AND MORE INTEREST IN SPREADING WATER AROUND YOUR TONGUE AND YOU WILL FEEL GOOD TASTE. IF YOU SIP IT SLOWLY PREFERABLY IN SITTING POSITION, WATER GETS MIXED WITH SALIVA HELPS DIGESTION TO BECOME SMOOTH. HENCE WE MUST UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE OF WATER. OUR BODY IS HAVING MAJOR PROPORTION OF WATER, AIR, AND EMPTY SPACE. LIQUID SUPPLEMENTS LIKE HERBAL TEA, BUTTER MILK, LEMON WATER, AND JUICE ARE ALWAYS GOOD TO HAVE QUITE FREQUENTLY.

THE THREE TYPES OF FOOD INTRODUCED BY LORD KRISHNA

❤💟❤

SATVIK FOOD💟

IN OUR HOLY SCRIPTURE, SHRI MADBHAGWAD GITA, LORD KRISHNA HAD DESCRIBED THREE TYPES OF FOOD, SATVIK, RAJAS, AND TAMAS. AS A MATTER OF FACT, OUR TENDENCIES, ARE GOVERENED BY TYPE OF FOOD IS ONE WHICH IS CLOSE TO THE NATURE AND NORMALLY IS IN ITS PURE OR ORIGINAL FORM. SUCH FOOD IS EASY TO DIGEST AND IMPARTS ENERGY, VITAMINS AND ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS REQUIRED FOR BODY. MILK, CURD, FRUITS, SALAD, VEGETABLES FALL UNDER THIS CATEGORY. THERE IS SHORTEST PERIOD BETWEEN TAKING FOOD TO EXCRETION IN CASE OF SATVIK FOOD, WHEREAS IN CASE OF RAJAS AND TAMAS FOOD THIS TIME PERIOD IS LONGER AND THEREFORE PRONE TO GENERATE TOXICS.

https://www.saranyavibes.com/2025/09/how-to-live-healthy-life-proper-diet.html

RAJAS FOOD❤

RAJAS FOOD IS ONE WHICH IS IN MODIFIED OR COVERTED FROM LIKE DEEP DRIED SPICY ITEMS, SWEETS, PICKLES, NOODLES, PULAV, CHAAT, PAKODI ETC. THESE ITEMS ARE MORE OF TASTY, BUT TAKE MORE TIME AND ENERGY TO DIGEST, HENCE ADVISABLE TO TAKE IN LIMITED QUANTITY ONLY. NORMALLY WE TAKE THIS TYPE OF FOOD IN FESTIVALS, PARTY AND OTHER FUNCTIONS. MY ADVICE IS THAT WE SHOULD REDUCE THE QUANTITY OF SUCH FOOD INTAKE, IF WE ARE GOING TO PARTY OR OTHER FUNCTION. THIS MAY SOLVE THE PROBLEM TO LITTLE EXTENT. WE SHOULD PREFER LIQUID ITEMS LIKE FRUIT JUICE, SWEET MILK, SOUP ETC. IN LITTLE HIGHER QUANTITY. THERE IS NO HARM IN TAKING ICE CREAM, IF YOU DO NOT CATCH COLD. IT IS NOT GOOD PRACTICE TO INSIST FOR MORE FOOD JUST TO EXPRESS OUR LOVE OR AFFECTION FOR OUR FRIENDS AND RELATIVES, THERE ARE MANY BETTER WAYS TO DO DO. PARTIES ARE MOSTLY IN NIGHT HOURS AND IT IS REALLY NOT ADVISABLE TO EAT MORE IN LATE NIGHT HOURS.

https://www.saranyavibes.com/2025/09/how-to-live-healthy-life-proper-diet.html

TAMAS FOOD👀

TAMAS FOOD IS MAILY NON VEGETARIAN OR THAT WHICH EITHER HALF COOKED NOT COOKED PROPERLY. THOSE TYPE OF FOOD WHICH EATEN WITHOUT THINKING THAT IT GOOD OR BAD FOR OUT HEALTH, MAY BE DUE TO LACK OF KNOWLEDGE OR PURPOSELY, FALLS UNDER THIS CATEGORY. ALCOHOL ALSO IS SUCH TYPE OF TAMAS FOOD WHERE WE KEEP ON TAKING IN SPITE OR KNOWING OR CARING ABOUT ITS DISADVANTAGES OR HAMFULNESS. REGARDING NON VEGETARIAN FOOD, WE MUST REMEMBER THAT HUMAN BODY, ESPECIALLY TEETH AND INTESTINE, ARE DESIGNED FOR VEGETARIAN FOOD ONLY. THOSE ANIMALS THAT EAT VEGETARIAN FOODS HAVE TEETH TO CHEW SO THAT FOOD IS PROPERLY MIXED WITH SALIVA MAKING IT MORE DIGESTIBLE WHEREAS THOSE ANIMALS, WHOSE BODY IS FIT FOR EATING MEAT AND NON VEGETARIAN FOOD, HAVE TEETH TO TEAR THE FLESH. AFTER TEARING THE FLESH THESE ANIMALS TAKE FLESH DIRECTLY TO INTESTINE WHERE LIQUID MUCH MORE STRONG THAN SALIVA HELPS DIGESTING THE SAME. HUMAN FOOD PIPE IS VERY MUCH DIFFERENT . IT IS HAS MANY CURVES, FIRST FOOD IS TRANSPORTED TO STOMACH, THEN AFTER SO MANY CURVES PATHS, IT REACHES INTESTINE (LONG AND SMALL) AND ULTIMATELY IT GETS DIGESTED. IF WE TAKE NON VEGERARIAN FOOD, IT IS MORE DIFFICULT TO DIGEST AND TAKES LONGER DURATION. ANY FOOD WHICH LIES IN BODY FOR LONGER DURATION GENERATES JUNK OR POISONOUS PROPERTIES. SAME THING HAPPENS IF WE TAKE FOOD MORE THAN REQUIRED QUANTITY. THESE JUNKS AND TOXICS ARE MAIN CAUSES FOR MALFUNCTIONING OF LEVER AND OTHER PARTS RESPONSIBLE FOR DIGESTION. THIS IS THE VERY REASON WHY MEAT, PORK OR BEEF IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE GOOD FOR HUMAN BODY.

TIMING OF FOOD💫

CONSISTENCY IN TIMING OF BREAKFAST, LUNCH AND DINNER IS VERY GOOD AND BODY GETS ACCUSTOMED WITH THIS, IF WE FOLLOW THE TIMINGS, WHICH ARE NOT VERY FLEXIBLE. WHENEVER WE FEEL APPETITE, IT IS NOT ONLY WANT OF NEW FOOD TO DIGEST, BUT IS MATTER OF PRACTICE ALSO. IF WE MAKE A REGULAR HABIT TO EAT SIX TIMES A DAY, OUR BODY ADOPS THE SAME. WE CAN HAVE OF TAKING FOOD THRICE A DAY ONLY. RATHER IT CAN BE ONCE OR TWICE A DAY. OUR BODY WILL START RESPONDING ACCORDINGLY. THUS WE HAVE TO DECIDE AS TO WHAT IS THE FREQUENCY AND TIMING (AND OF COURSE QUANTITY) OF MEALS DEPENDING ON OUR NATURE OF WORK, HABIT AND LIFESTYLE WE WANT TO LEAD. THE BASIS IDEA BEHIND THIS IS THAT WE NEED TO EAT FOR LIVING AND NOT LIVING JUST TO EAT. WHATEVER DISH YOU LIKE MOST, SHOULD BE TAKEN IN LESS QUANTITY WITH BETTER TASTE, SO THAT ITS CHARM IS MAINTAINED FOR LONGER DURATION. CONVERSELY SOME PEOPLE RUN BEHIND FAVORITE DISHES AND FILL STOMACH FROM THAT PARTICULAR DISH ONLY. WE MUST HAVE CONTROL ON OUR TONGUE AND YOGA AUTOMATICALLY TEACHES US TO HOW TO CONTROL ON DESIRES.

MULTIGRAIN FLOUR

💟

MULTIGRAIN FLOUR IS GOOD FOR HEALTH AND THERE WE SHOULD MIX 5-10 PERCENT OF GRAM, SOYA BEANS OR BARLEY BEFORE GRINDING THE WHEAT IN GRINDING MILLS. YOU MIGHT HAVE OBSERVED A GENERATION BACK, READY FLOUR WAS NOT AVAILABLE IN INDIAN MARKET, WE USED TO PURCHASE AND STORE WHEAT. BEFORE TAKING IT TO GRINDING MILLS, WE USED TO REMOVE UNWANTED FODDER TYPE HUSK OR STONE PIECES. THAT TIME, WE USED TO GET GRAM, OATS SEEDS, FLAX AND MUSTARD SEEDS ALSO AMONG THE PURCHASED WHEAT. THAT TIME, WHEAT WAS GROWN ALONG WITH THESE TYPES OF SEEDS CONSIDERING THE CONCEPT OF MULTIGRAIN. WITH THE ADVANCEMENT BASED ON MARKET FORCES, WE FORGOT THIS CONCEPT AND PURE WHEAT FLOUR IS MADE AVAILABLE IN MARKET. PATANJALI AVURVED LIMITED, FMCG COMPANY IN INDIA, RESTARTED THE CONCEPT OF MULTIGRAIN FOOD AND IT IS AVAILABLE IN MARKET NOW. EVEN IF WE PURCHASE PURE WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR DIRECTLY, WE CAN MIX GRAM FLOUR OR CORN FLOUR IN ORDER TO MAKE IT MORE DIGESTIBLE. IT IS BETTER OPTION AS THE PROPORTION OF WHATEVER GRAIN YOU MIX IS KNOWN TO YOU, OTHERWISE MANY COMMERCIAL HOUSES MAY ATTEMPT FOR COST EFFECTIVE ALTERNATES MIX TO MAKE MONEY OUT OF IT. OTHER THAN THESE MULTIGRAIN, ALTERNATE GRAINS LIKE MAIZE, BARLEY, OATS AND MILLET (BAJRA) ETC. ALSO ARE VERY GOOD EVEN IF TAKEN EXCLUSIVELY AND WE SHOULD OCCASIONALLY USE THESE GRAINS ALSO. THIS IS NOT ONLY HEALTHY, BUT CHANGES YOUR TAST AS WELL. WE SHOULD FEEL THANKFUL TO GOD THAT WE ARE IN A COUNTRY WHERE SO MANY ALTERNATES ARE AVAILABLE REASONABLE PRICE.

FRUITS ❤

WE NEED TO TAKE FRUITS IN SUCH A WAY THAT I BENEFITS MOST AND FOR THAT PURPOSE, MORNING TIME IS THE BEST. WE SHOULD TAKE AT LEAST TWO FRUITS, MAY BE SELECTED FROM BANANA, PAPAYA, APPLE, GUAVA, POMEGRANATE, GRAPES, MANGO, PEAR, PINAPPLE OR ANY LOCAL OR SEASONAL FOOD. SINCE VERY FRUIT HAS GOT SPECIFIC PROPERTY OF VITAMINS OR MINERALS AND THEREFORE WE MUST KEEP ON CHANGING FRUITS AS PER AVAILABILITY ALSO, RIGHT IN DIETARY FIBER, FRUITS HELP TO IMPROVE FUNCTIONING OF DIGESTIVE TRACT THEREBY MAKING EXCRETION PROCESS SMOOTHER AND AVOID PROBLEMS LIKE GASTRITIS AND CONSTIPATION. CONSTIPATION IF LASTS FOR LONGER PERIOD MAY INVITE PILES PROBLEM , WHICH IS QUITE DIFFICULT TO HANDLE AND SURGERY IS THE LAST OPTION. CRANBERRY, BLACK BERRY, STRAW BERRY, BLUE BERRY, RASPBERRY ARE LOW IN CALORIES, VERY GOOD ANTI OXIDANTS, GOOD FOR WEIGHT LOSS. ANYWAY IF YOU DO NOT GET FRESH BERRIES, CANNED JUICES CAN BE PREFERRED AS ALTERNATE. INDIAN BER (BUCKTHORN) ARE FULL OF BENEFITS INCLUDING SMOOTHENING BLOOD CIRCULATION. SOME FRUITS LIKE APPLE, GUAVA, PEAR, CAN BE EATEN WITH ITS PEEL, WE SHOULD NOT THROW AWAY PEEL AS IF HAVE GOT PROTECTING POWER.

DRY FRUITS 💟

DRY FRUITS ARE DRIED BY SUN DRIED METHOD OR DEHYDRATION USING WIND TUNNELS. DRY FRUITS ARE DEHYDRATED TO RETAIN PULP OF THE FRUIT AND THUS CAN BE STORED FOR A LONGER DURATION. IF SOMEONE IS ON DIET, DRY FRUITS CAN BE OPTED AS GREAT SOURCE OF ENERGY IF EATEN IN MODERATE QUANTITY AS THEY CONTAIN SIGNIFICANTLY MORE CALORIES THAN FRESH FRUITS. DRY FRUITS LIKE FIGS (ANJEER), DATES, APRICOTS, ALMONDS, PISTACHIO, COCONUT, WALNUT, CASHEW NUT, LOTUS SEEDS (MAKHANE), RAISINS (KISHMISH) ARE EXCELLENT FOR OVERALL HEALTH. YOU HAVE SO MANY VARIETIES TO CHOOSE AS IT SUITSTO YOUR TASTE AND POCKET ALSO. DRY FRUITS ARE GOOD FOR YOUR SKIN AND WELL. IF YOU HAVE A HABIT TO TAKE DRY FRUITS, YOUR INTEREST IN JUNK FOODS MAY REDUCE GRADUALLY. HENCE EATING DRY FRUITS CAN CHANGE YOUR HABITS APART FROM ITS NATURAL BENEFITS.

SALAD ITEMS 💫

RADISH, TOMATO, CARROT, BEETROOT, CUCUMBER, CABBAGE, BROCCOLI, ONIONS ARE MAIN INGREDIENTS OF SALAD, WE MUST TAKE THESE ITEMS IN GOOD QUANTITY WITHOUT ANY HARM. SALAD IS NOTHING BUT RAW FOOD AND HENCE IT IS HAVING NATURAL BENEFITS VEGETABLES IN SALAD ARE GOOD SOUCES OF INSOLUBLE FIBER WHICH KEEPS YOUR DIGESTIVE TRACT HEALTHY. SOMEONE MAY ARGUE THAT SALAD IS QUITE COSTLY. ANSWER IS THAT YOU CAN TAKE ANY ITEM FROM THESE DEPENDING ON AVAILABILITY, SO AS TO BE COST CONSCIOUS ALSO. SECONDLY WHATEVER MONEY YOU PAY TO DOCTORS IS MUCH HIGHER (AND NOT NEGOTIABLE) THAN WHAT YOU SAVE IN AVOIDING SALAD. WHATEVER MONEY WE WASTE IN COKE, CHINESE, OR ITALIAN FOOD, (NOT SUITABLE IN OUR LOCAL CLIMATE) AND OTHER ITEMS SPOILING YOUR HEALTH NEED TO BE NECESSARILY SIPHONED HERE BEFORE TAKING CALCULATIVE MOVE.

👀 SPROUNTS

SPROUTS IS THE PROCESS OF GERMINATING SEEDS, BEANS OR EVEN WHOLE CEREALS. THEY ARE CONSIDERED AS WONDER FOODS FOR THEIR HIGH NUTRITIONAL VALUE. IT IS VERY EASY TO PREPARE THE SAME ON OUR OWN AND CHEAPER TOO. YOU CAN HVE GRAM, PEA, MUNG, URAD, SOYA BEANS OR MIXTURE OF ANY TWO OR THREE. KEEP THEM IMMERSED IN WATER FOR EIGHT TO TEN HOURS OF SWELLING AND THEN WATER CAN BE DRAINED, HENCE WE NEED TO USE POROUS UTENSIL, SO THAT RESIDUAL WATER DOES NOT ROT BEANS. ALTERNATIVELY FILTER FABRIC OR NAPKIN CAN BE USED. AFTER STORING AT ROOM TEMPERATURE FOR EIGHT TO TEN HOURSIT STARTS SPROUTING. AFTER THIS SPROUTS CAN BE PRESERVED FOR THREE TO FOUR DAYS IN YOUR REFRIGERATOR. BEFORE EATING , YOU CAN MIX IT WITH HONEY, SALT, GREEN CHILLY OR SAUCES AS PER YOUR TASTE. IF YOU LIKE YOU CAN BOIL THE SPROUTS TO HAVE A DIFFERENT TASTE. THIS ALSO CAN BE TAKEN IN THE MORNING OR EVEN DURING LUNCH.
