Healthy Woman is Healthy Family

Help yourself! [ This article is on behalf of a very dear friend of mine who wants to keep it anonymous. She  chose to be anonymous because she doesn't want people to focus on her (positively or negatively). Motive is to help people get help. ] I stopped going out. It used to be one of my favorite things to do. But now I had no strength or will to get up, get ready and go out. I used to enjoy talking to people. Now I avoid talking to anyone because it meant I had to pretend to be fine and happy. It felt like a huge effort which my body and mind would be unable to make. I had no desire, no will to do anything. I was feeling numb, absolutely numb! It took me while to realize I was going through depression. I didn't let anyone know even after I recognized it. One, I didn't want my family to suffer because of my suffering. Two, I didn't know if there was any other person who would understand it. I decided to fight it. I had to, for my family because they deserved no

Expectations! The biggest problems of our lives? My mind has been through a roller coaster ride and I have been wondering whats bothering me. Despite the growth and wisdom I have gained in last few years , why are some things still bothering me. I practice gratitude, I stopped judging people, I am attracting abundance in my life, I have taken control of my health, Almighty has been kind to me, I am all showering love, then what is it that still troubling me? Struggling with the thunder and confusion of thoughts in my mind and today, I see one of my friends feeling overwhelmed with expectations of people around . The usual me , I am so always up trying to understand and help my friends and it got me thinking. While thinking I realised it is related to my problem as well that I have been dealing with and I never thought of it. Thanks to my friend for I realised my problem and thanks to almighty for making me go through that roller coaster ride as I learn something new and in tur

Four Pillars of Health Health! A word which is seen so differently by different people. Some people look at it like weight loss, some look at it like fat loss while there are some who look at losing inches etc. Have you ever wondered health is much more than that.  A healthy body means all the 11 systems ( Circulatory system,  digestive system, Endocrine system,  E xocrine system,  Lymphatic system , muscular system, Nervous system, U rinary system, Reproductive System,   Respiratory system , Skeletal System  ) in our body are absolutely healthy.  So, its absolutely important that we understand our own system and how to take care of them. Now, I don't mean we all should become doctors to get all that information. However, we should definitely have some basic knowledge about what our body consists of and which system is responsible  for doing what. There is a reason/science behind it which can only be felt. When you know and feel which action of yours affects which system o

When we are girls , we  are not allowed to pursue our choices and have to seek approval from elders to do everything. Then, we are married and we are looking for approval from husband or in laws even to do smallest of things like going out to see friends or some time off. Why girls?  As women or girls we tend to make our friend and families more important than ourselves and in that process we just lose our own importance.  In some cases our minds get conditioned to not make decisions and seek approval because that's what we have been doing since childhood and then we never think of coming out of it. Our minds have been conditioned to think that way. Its with our upbringing . I am  not blaming what our parents did to us was wrong. They did what they could and probably they also did not know about all this. They a
