Let go of your Stresses!

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 22 Sep 2013 16:59:00 +0000

A psychologist walked around a room while teaching stress management to an audience. As she raised a glass of water, everyone expected they’d be asked the “half empty or half full” question. Instead, with a smile on her face, she inquired: ”How heavy is this glass of water?”

Answers called out ranged from 8 oz. to 20 oz.

She replied, “The absolute weight doesn’t matter. It depends on how long I hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it’s not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I’ll have an ache in my arm. If I hold it for a day, my arm will feel numb and paralyzed. In each case, the weight of the glass doesn’t change, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes.”

She continued, “The stresses and worries in life are like that glass of water. Think about them for a while and nothing happens. Think about them a bit longer and they begin to hurt. And if you think about them all day long, you will feel paralyzed – incapable of doing anything.”

It’s important to remember to let go of your stresses. As early in the evening as you can, put all your burdens down. Don’t carry them through the evening and into the night. Remember to put the glass down!

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 17 Jul 2013 04:06:00 +0000

Meditation is the best thing a person can do to reach his highest state of self. Beginners find it difficult to meditate for longer periods. In this article i will explain you how to do meditation.

Follow these steps:

1) Wake up early in the morning, ideally at 4 Am because this is the best time to meditate as there are no noises and quality of air is very good.

If you can't wake up at 4 then at least you should wake up at 5 AM.

2) Find a quiet place somewhere in the open surroundings, you can go at your terrace.

3) Sit on the level ground on a sheet or a cushion for comfort. Whenever you meditate its best to sit cross legged but if you can't than you can also sit on a chair.

4) Close your eyes and repeat a japa(mantra or phrase) in your mind which must remind you of God. This repetition of japa will help you to keep your mind still and keep it from distractions.

5) Try to look at the centre of your eyebrows with your eyes closed. You will see it in dark. This further helps to keep your mind still. Other option is to visualize God, your ideal. It can be anyone - Jesus Christ, Shri Krishna, Allah, Guru Nanak dev ji or your Living Guru.

How to get rid of Headache Instantly

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 17:01:00 +0000

The most common and annoying problem which we face frequently due to various reasons in our daily life is Headache. Once you get headache it becomes very difficult to continue with the work you are doing. So, we simply take painkiller to get rid of headache but that too take some time. You will be surprised to know that painkillers are already present in our body but we never use them.

Solution:

1. Pressure : There is a groove in your skull which is at the top of the center of the eye socket. Applying pressure at this point will release endorphins. Endorphins are our body painkillers. The release of Endorphins will get you rid of your headache within seconds. When we apply pressure at this groove we feel a pain which is due to a nerve present in this groove. And this pain leads to the Release of endorphins.

Today when my mother got headache, i told her to do this and she got rid of headache within seconds. So, then i thought of sharing this wonderful tip with you.

What are Endorphins ?

Endorphins are endogenous opioid polypeptide compounds. They are produced by the pituitary gland and the hypothalamus in vertebrates during strenuous exercise, excitement, pain and orgasm, and they resemble the opiates in their abilities to produce analgesia and a sense of well-being. Endorphins work as "natural pain relievers", whose effects may be enhanced by other medications. [Source : Endorphin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia].

2. Concentration/ Meditation - I have found this method very effective. Whenever you get a headache, find a quite place in open air surroundings example garden or just go outdoors. Then Close your eyes and try to concentrate at the center point(with closed eyes). As long as you concentrate you will feel no pain but after you open your eyes, headache will be there. So, you need to do it for longer time and you can also take deep breaths as it will increase the oxygen level in your body and that is what our brain loves the most.

3. Shirshasana(headstand) - This yogic posture increase the flow of blood in the head which leads to rise in oxygen level and you can get relief from headache. It is advised to do this yoga regularly as it is very beneficial in the long run.

4. Shower : Take shower, if possible, with Luke Warm or hot water. You will feel relief from headache while you are taking shower. After the shower, Few deep breaths and take a nap or use the above mentioned method(Concentrate).

I hope this will help you, and i will keep adding more ways of getting rid of headache.

3. Make sure that the alarm is loud enough, so that there is no other way then to turn it off.

4. Keep a water sprayer near that clock and after turning that alarm off, spray some water on your face.
