Inspiring Charlie Chaplin Quotes
A Lovely Monday Morning to You All!
PLEASE STAY SAFE FROM CORONA VIRUS (COVID-19). FOLLOW GOOD HAND HYGIENE and MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING

Do you know……………I received Charlie Chaplin (an English comedic actor, filmmaker, composer, one of the most iconic figures in the film industry worldwide) quotes on WhatsApp. These are such inspirational and uplifting quotes, I wanted to share some with you:

  • A day without laughter is a day wasted.

                       Inspiring Life Lessons

  • Nothing is permanent in this wicked world – not even our troubles.
  • Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot.
  • You’ll never find a rainbow if you’re looking down
  • We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that. We want to live by each other’s happiness, not by each other’s misery.
  • Failure is unimportant. It takes courage to make a fool of yourself.
  • I always like walking in the rain, so no one can see me crying.
  • To help a friend in need is easy, but to give him your time is not always opportune.

Lessons to be learnt from his precious thoughts are:

Self-love and be authentic

           Charlie Chaplin Inspiring Quotes

Maturity, don’t stay stuck in your own boundaries

Respect every individual the way you would like to be treated

Self-confidence to achieve success without any wrong doings

Modesty, being true and honest to yourself

Simplicity, by your nature and thinking

Follow your heart and instinct. work towards betterment of self and society

Respect and understand the preciousness of life

For many it will feel redundant, still it’s good practice to periodically renew these ideas. It’s nice to have the love and respect for humanity as there is enough room for everyone in this world and our mother earth is large enough to accommodate all of us where we can live in harmony and succeed peacefully. Aromatherapy using Essential Oils is a good approach to stay grounded and fulfil our goals.

It has been used since ancient times for healing, health care, beauty products, meditation, etc. Essential Oils promote health of body, peacefulness of mind, helps a person get in touch with their true selves. Essential oils can be used by diffusing, or as a room spray, or applying topically at pressure points. Most of the grounding oils come from trees, barks and resins, as it’s evident that trees are intrinsically grounded through their root structure into the earth, e.g. Birch, Cypress, Cedarwood, Vetivert, Frankincense, Sandalwood, Myrrh, Patchouli, Orange, etc.

Importance of Lavender Essential Oil
A Lovely Monday Morning to You All!
PLEASE STAY SAFE FROM CORONA VIRUS (COVID-19). FOLLOW GOOD HAND HYGIENE and MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING

Do you know………. Lavender Essential Oil (Lavandula angustifolia) is just as popular today as it was over 2500 years ago. It has been used for centuries; Egyptians used for

                                Lavender Essential Oil

mummification, Greeks used for perfumery, Roman civilization recognized lavender for its healing and antiseptic qualities, in 16th century France, lavender was regarded as an effective and reliable anti-infection oil.

René-Maurice Gattefossé, a French chemist and scholar, born in Montchat near Lyon in 1881, is regarded as the Father of Aromatherapy and inventor of the word Aromatherapy. In 1910, while working in the laboratory, he burned his hand and plunged his hand into the nearest tub of liquid which just happened to be Lavender Essential Oil. He was later amazed with negligible amount of scarring and experienced firsthand the healing power of Lavender Oil on skin. This inspired him to experiment with Essential Oils during the First World War on soldiers in the military hospitals that increased the rate of healing the wound and so on. His book Aromathérapie: Les Huiles Essentielles Hormones Végétales, brought his ideas to the attention of a wider public in 1937. It was translated into English as Aromatherapy and so the name was born.

The name “Lavender” is derived from the Latin, lavare, meaning, “to wash”. Greeks and Romans perfumed their bathwater with lavender for clean wash, burned lavender incense. There are several species of lavender with hundreds of various genotypes differentiated by variations ranging from growth form to chemical composition of essential oil. Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) is the most versatile of all essential oils that belongs to Lamiaceae family with calming, relaxing, and balancing attributes. It is extracted from the fragrant flowers of the lavender plant by steam distillation. The major constituents of Lavandula angustifolia essential oil are linalol (Monoterpinol), linalyl acetate (Esters), 1,8-cineole, camphor, and endo-borneol. Because of its sweet, floral, herbaceous fragrance and therapeutic properties, Lavender oil is used in everything from soaps, shampoos and lotions to potpourri, massage oils and air fresheners. It’s like having your own first-aid kit.

Lavender Essential Oil has many health benefits including:

  • It is used as a disinfectant, an antiseptic, anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory
  • Nourishing skin due to its high antioxidant content
  • Reducing stress and anxiety
  • Sleep aid
  • Heal wounds and minor burns
  • Alleviating pain
  • Stimulating the brain
  • Improving blood circulation
  • Disinfecting and cleaning

The Incredible Number 7

Posted on September 7, 2021 by in Uncategorized

 

The Incredible Number 7
A Lovely Morning to You All!
PLEASE STAY SAFE FROM CORONA VIRUS (COVID-19). FOLLOW GOOD HAND HYGIENE and MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING

Do you know………During my yoga and meditation sessions, number 7 is mentioned often either for repetition of a particular sequence or chanting of some mantra. Out of my curiosity, I started searching and was astounded with the wealth of information. Here, I am sharing with you some of the significance of number 7 without going into details.

     Lucky Number 7

7 is the number of completeness and perfection both physical as well as spiritual. The number 7 is tied directly to God’s creation of all things and much more prevalent in nature than most of us realize; There are 7 oceans, 7 continents, 7 vertebrae in the neck, 7 basic chakras in our body, 7 layers of skin (2 outer and 5 inner), ocean waves roll in sevens, 7 colors in rainbow, music has 7 notes, there are 7 directions, the Jewish Menorah has 7 candles, the earth was created in 7 days (including a day of rest, hence 7 days in a week), a cube has 7 dimensions (including the inside), there are 7 deadly sins, 7 virtues, 7 gifts of the Holy Spirit, 7 classical planets, 7 hills in Istanbul, Rome and Jerusalem, 7 wonders of the ancient world. The number 7 is also important in Hinduism, Islam, Buddhism, and Judaism. The number 7 is also featured in the Book of Revelation (7 churches, 7 angels, 7 seals, 7 trumpets, and 7 stars). The Koran speaks of 7 heavens and Muslim pilgrims walk around the Kaaba in Mecca 7 times. In Hinduism there are 7 higher worlds and 7 underworlds, 7 sages or Saptarishi, 7 stars in a constellation called Saptharishi Mandalam (Great Bear constellation, clearly visible from earth in the northern direction and it looks like a kite in the space), 7 promises, or Saptapadi, and 7 circumambulations around a fire at Hindu weddings, 7 octets or Saptak Swaras in Indian Music as the basis for Ragas compositions. In Buddhism 7 is the number of ascent, and Buddha is said to have walked this number of steps at his birth.

In medieval education, students pursued a total of seven subjects (the trivium -grammar, rhetoric, logic and the quadrivium – music, arithmetic, geometry, astronomy), collectively known as the liberal arts. In modern times, 7 is the number of games in the playoffs for NHL, MLB and NBA. There is an obvious 7-year economics crash cycle for example starting from 1966, then 1973, then 1980, then 1987, then 1994, then 2001, so on and so forth. 7 not only represents the jackpot on slot machines, but it is also the basis for many myths and folklore. In 1956, George Miller of Harvard University wrote that most people can retain roughly seven items of information in their short term memory. That is why phone numbers in the U.S. and many other countries tend to have 7 digits in a phone number after the area code. 7 is a prime number. Prime numbers are those that can only be divided by themselves and by the number 1 and 7 is considered by some to be the most ‘prime’ number within the first 10 numbers as it cannot be multiplied within the group, making it a kind of optimal-prime. It is also symbolic of togetherness and, as a result, is seen as a good omen in relationships.

It is this combination of cultural, historical, religious, numerical, and psychological factors that contribute to the allure of the number 7. If we do proper research, we will find many more significance of number 7.

Aromatherapy for Body Odor

Posted on August 23, 2021 by in Aromatherapy for Body Odor

Aromatherapy for Body Odor
A Lovely Monday Morning to You All!
PLEASE STAY SAFE FROM CORONA VIRUS (COVID-19). FOLLOW GOOD HAND HYGIENE and MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING

Do you know…………… Body odor is the unpleasant smell our body gives off when natural skin bacteria breaks down sweat proteins into acids.

                                      Body Odor

It is also known as B.O., Bromhidrosis, Osmidrosis, or Ozochrotia. Some other causes of offensive body odor include poor hygiene, nutrient deficiencies, diet, medication, gastrointestinal problems like chronic constipation, and underlying medical problems, such as; genetic metabolic disorders, liver disease, or diabetes. Each person’s unique body odor can be used to identify people, especially by our pets, like dogs and other animals.

Sweating, in general, is the body’s natural way to regulate its temperature, but unpleasant body odor can affect our confidence and personality. Bacteria breakdown proteins in our sweat into two acids – propionic acid and isovaleric acid. Propionic acid is produced when Propionibacteria break down amino acids. It has a pungent smell and is often associated with vinegar, while Isovaleric acid, also found in many kinds of cheese, is produced by Staphylococcus epidermidis bacteria. Human body also has two types of sweat glands, Eccrine Glands: These glands are found throughout the body and produce sweat for maintaining our body temperature. Apocrine Glands(scent gland): These glands are found in our armpits, eyelids, genital area, breasts and are usually responsible for the foul odor produced by our body,

Body odor can be treated by practicing good hygiene and with over-the-counter medicines or Anti-perspirants or Deodorants. But lately, there has been a lot of debate surrounding the chemicals used in deodorants and their cumulative adverse effect on the human body. The safer, alternative, simple, and natural home remedies that help get rid of body odor by controlling the growth of bacteria and reducing excessive sweating, is the use of Essential Oils. Essential oils are natural, volatile, concentrated, liquid extract of different parts of plants that possess individual therapeutic properties:

Citrus Scent Essential oils: include Neroli, Lemon grass, Grapefruit, Bergamot, Cypress, Lemon

Happiness Healing with Aromatherapy

Posted on August 9, 2021 by in Happiness Healing with Aromatherapy

Happiness Healing with Aromatherapy
A Lovely Monday Morning to You All!
PLEASE STAY SAFE FROM CORONA VIRUS (COVID-19). FOLLOW GOOD HAND HYGIENE and MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING

Do you know…………If you want to be happy, learn to move on. What does that mean? It simply means, learn the lesson from your mistakes, let go, and move on. Resentment, anger creates worries and devoid us of being happy. Remember energy follows where our

                      Happiness Healing

attention is. Identify and understand your situation and let it go. Master Stephen Co, a teacher, author, a healer, an expert in Pranic Healing and Arhatic Yoga, always use this metaphor, cars have proportionately larger windscreen than the back view mirror because when we are driving, we want to move forward not backward.

Why are we unhappy? It’s because of our disturbed mental-emotional health, our strained relationship, our conscious, our anger-ego-greed-lust-insecurity-fear, lack of understanding and accountability, and our physical health (WHO, analysed that on an average every 100 people has 200 illnesses). These negative qualities of our personality, makes us hostile and we start blaming others for our mishaps (while sometimes without realizing, we unknowingly give this right to others to take advantage of our trust, of our simplicity, and as a result get hurt) and in turn lose happiness. To attain happiness, we can follow these guidelines:

  1. Staying Grounded by regularly practicing meditation, yoga, mindfulness, and exercising, will help with our spirituality, hormonal balance, which in turn will keep our stress and anxiety in check.
  2. Avoid negativity and toxic people who pull you down, instead of being your support.

3. Pay attention to self-care by giving yourself a TLC (tender loving care). Catching up  on  tasks is great, but don’t hesitate to take breaks and pause.

  1. Indulge in activities that gives you pleasure, but you haven’t had time for it before. You deserve it.
  2. Walk in nature to get connected with your surroundings and the beautiful mother nature.
  3. Be compassionate and perform the random act of kindness, it leads to profound happiness in life and will get blessings in return.
  4. Be thankful and show gratitude for the abundance in life.
  5. Spend quality times with your loved ones.
  6. Finally, smell your favourite Essential oil and pamper yourself to a nice Aromatherapy massage. Essential oils have the power to affect person’s mood. Aromas are highly emotive, and everyone reacts to scents differently based on their past experiences, memory, and emotions. A sense of smell is one of the five senses and a powerful connector between people and the world around them.

Essential Oils are natural, volatile, concentrated, liquid plant extracts with different therapeutic properties and have been used since ancient times to cure different ailments and in beauty products. Tangerine, Peppermint and Eucalyptus essential oils can help with the mental focus, discipline, and coping mechanisms, Grapefruit essential oil helps to uplift, to cheer up, while Rose absolute and Geranium essential oil brings balance of spirit and feeling of harmony. Rosemary is clarifying, Sandalwood, Clove, Frankincense essential oils, help with breathing, grounding, and to stay centered.

Happiness Room Spray:

Essential Oils

                     Essential Oils

3-4 oz. Distilled Water

1 Tbsp Alcohol

10 drops Sweet Orange Essential Oil

10 drops Lavender Essential Oil

8 drops Sandalwood Essential Oil

8 drops Ylang ylang Essential Oil

In a 4 oz. glass spray bottle add essential oils, 3 oz. distilled water, 1 Tbsp alcohol (I use Vodka), close the bottle, mix, and label. Spray in room as desired. Mix well before each use.

What is Epsom Salt

Posted on July 26, 2021 by in What is Epsom Salt?

What is Epsom Salt?
A Lovely Monday Morning to You All!
PLEASE STAY SAFE FROM CORONA VIRUS (COVID-19). FOLLOW GOOD HAND HYGIENE and MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING

Do you know……..Epsom Salt, that we use so lavishly as a natural remedy for number of ailments, to name a few; Muscle Cramps, Sprains, Fatigue, Skin problems, Athlete’s Foot, Toenail Fungus, Toxin Elimination, or General Aches, is not a salt. It’s a naturally occurring pure mineral compound of magnesium and sulfate. Epsom Salt, takes its name from a bitter saline spring in Epsom in Surrey, England, where the salt was produced from the spring.

Epsom salt helps to alleviate stress as stress drains the body of magnesium and increases levels of adrenaline. When we take bath of Epsom Salt, salt is absorbed in through the skin and replenishes the level of magnesium in the body which helps to produce serotonin, a mood-elevating chemical within the brain that creates a feeling of calmness and relaxation. Also, used for Arthritis pain and swelling, Sprains, Swollen and tired feet, Sunburn pain and redness, Sore muscles after workout.

Epsom Salt (Magnesium Sulfate) also helps in gardening with seeds germination, makes plants grow bushier, produce more flowers, increases chlorophyll production.  Can add 2 tablespoons of Epsom salt to a gallon of water and sprinkle on lawn to keep the grass healthy and green.

Epsom salt is for external use only. There are no clinical studies done proving the safety and benefits of oral consumption of Epsom salt. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have not approved Epsom salt, so there are no official guidelines regarding the proper dosage or how to consume it. It is not good for people with severe skin infection and inflammation, or have kidney disease, or people who are pregnant. People use Epsom salts baths as a home treatment for plenty of minor ailments, but there aren’t sufficient studies to back them up. Taking this type of bath probably won’t hurt you, but if you have health concerns, always check with your doctor first.

Quick and easy nourishing Aromatherapy Bath Salt: make for yourself or gift it to family-friends

2 cups Epsom Salt

½ cup Baking Soda

2 Tbsp Dried Lavender Flower (or can use 10 drops Lavender Essential Oil)

6 drops Geranium Essential Oil

10 drops Orange Essential Oil

In a large bowl place Epsom salt and baking soda, mix well with a whisk, add essential oils, mix well. To colour (optional) the salt, use just few drops of food colouring of your preference, stir well, store in airtight glass jar, leaving half inch space at the top, label. After running a warm bath, pour ½-1 cup into bath and stir with your hand. Enjoy the relaxing, nourishing bath for 15 minutes to half an hour as and when you desire.

Aromatherapy and Body Clock for Sound Sleep

Posted on July 12, 2021 by in Aromatherapy and Body Clock for Sound Sleep

Aromatherapy and Body Clock for Sound Sleep
A Lovely Monday Morning to You All!
PLEASE STAY SAFE FROM CORONA VIRUS (COVID-19). FOLLOW GOOD HAND HYGIENE and MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING

Do you know…………… Sleep is regulated by two body systems: sleep/wake homeostasis and the circadian biological clock. According to the National Institutes of Health, our body clocks regulate our body’s circadian rhythms; the patterns of physical, mental, and

                          Circadian Biological Clock

behavioral changes, including sleep patterns, regulated by body temperature, hormone secretion, and external factors like light and darkness. Our body’s master clock is in a part of the brain’s hypothalamus called the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), which receives light information from the retina in the eye and sends the information to the parts of the brain, and the gland that releases the sleep hormone, melatonin, which gets suppressed by light. Circadian rhythm causes the level of wakefulness to rise and dip throughout the day. Most people feel the strongest desire to sleep between 1:00pm and 3:00pm (the post-lunch, afternoon nap) and then again between 2:00am and 4:00am, that can vary from person to person.

There are five stages of sleep: stage 1, 2, 3, 4 (Non-REM), and 5 is REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, according to the American Sleep Association (ASA). Over the course of the night, the body will go through this five-stage cycle four to six times, spending an average of 90 minutes in each stage. Stage 1 is considered light sleep, and it is easy to wake someone. Our eye movements stop, and brain waves slow in stage 2. However, stages 3 and 4 are referred to as deep sleep. In REM sleep, the sleeper experiences dreams. Each stage of sleep serves a unique restorative function, including muscle recovery, hormone regulation, and memory consolidation.

According to Chinese medicine, it is not only how much sleep you get that matters, but also at what time do you sleep? In Chinese medicine, energy or qi, moves through the body’s meridians and organs in a 24hour cycle. Every two hours the qi (or energy) is strongest within a particular organ and its functions within the body. A bedtime of 10:30pm (at the latest) is advised so that you are asleep by 11pm when the Liver and Gallbladder start to regulate qi, process emotions, balance hormones and detoxify the body. From 11 PM – 3 AM, the Liver and Gallbladder is active which is most important for maintaining health, especially as we age. Any disharmony in our physical body, is tied to our emotional and mental state.

Aromatherapy is a good way to promote relaxation that can help get your body into a restful state ready for sleep. Aromatherapy is the science and art of using Essential oils to heal the mind, body, and soul. Essential oils are pure, natural, concentrated, volatile, aromatic, liquid extract from different parts of plants. Making specific essential oil (s) aroma a part of bedtime routine, can help train our mind with falling asleep. Not only do essential oils with a sedative property promote sleep, but they can also diminish anxiety, lower blood pressure, and relieve stress that builds up throughout the day. Many people prefer to use essential oils, because they are natural and do not create the common side effects of drowsiness and other health risks associated with many conventional sleep medications. Though, more research is still needed regarding essential oils and sleep, the studies done so far do suggest that using essential oils before bedtime can help alleviate mild to moderate sleep problems. Essential oils can be used in variety of ways; in a diffuser, or can be applied topically mixed in a cream or a carrier oil, or spritzed on, or in a room spray. Following Essential Oils could be used to alleviate insomnia due to stress, depression, headache, fatigue: Cedarwood, Clary sage, Frankincense, Geranium, Lavender, Roman Chamomile, Rose, Sandalwood, Sweet Orange, Valerian, Ylang ylang

Try following these simple steps for bedtime preparation to reset sleep cycle and help fall asleep:
