Let's Feel Grateful For Our Health , Let's make good health a fashion statement #gratefulness

I felt excited when  I got a prompt “Thankful for your health” to write on. This prompt gives me an opportunity to be thankful to God for blessing me with  a very good health. Except for occasional headache or backache , I am completely fit and fine. When I see others facing major health issues , then I feel all the more grateful for my good health.

grateful

Two years ago, when my mother-in-law had to undergo knee replacement surgery , I got to visit the hospital for many days . Such critical cases of accidents or heart attacks or cancer could be seen there which were terrifying.  Parents with   new born  kids in their laps  , kids having one or other form of heart trouble , could be seen waiting in long queues . Seeing such cases , any healthy person  really feels grateful for the gift of good health. May nobody needs to go to hospital !

I am reminded of the time when I met with an accident many years ago. I was unmarried at that time. I was driving the scooter when a cyclist banged with me . Thank God , I was wearing a helmet .  My left leg was plastered for a month . I couldn’t even manage going to washroom on my own . How difficult it had become , all the time just resting on the bed !

So we should be grateful if God has blessed us with a healthy mind and body .

Let’s just not be grateful for our good health but also make some recurring investments on our health , so as to make it even better. That would be the real gratefulness for our health .

*Our Heart runs 24 hours a day for us . Let us also run(or atleast walk)  for our heart , even  half an hour daily running  can make our heart happy.

*Our Eyes our meant to see the beauty of nature. Let’s not use them just for mobile or computer screens.

*Our Liver helps in digestion and detoxification. Let us avoid toxifying it with alcohal or any other drugs.

*Our Joints keep us moving and provide us stability. Let’s not make them unstable my our excess body weight. Let’s keep them stressfree by doing stretching exercises.

*Our Brain does all the thinking for us, Our Mind keeps track of all the flow of energy.   Let’s try to  keep our mind energised by adopting any calming techniques, be it meditation or Anulomvilom. This maintains our body equilibrium .

Let’s all take care of our health , the  wonderful gift of God . Let’s nourish ourselves by having  more of fruits /veggies, cutting down on junk foods , and  taking all those measures which make our body and mind in smiley mode.

Afterall, Health is Wealth .

So True, Health is the real wealth.

Be Healthy ! God Bless You !

A letter to my Kitchen

 Being a woman i also spend lot of time in my kitchen whether full heartedly , half heartedly or not at all heartedly . But in any case i have to go in my kitchen off and on . Today I feel like writing a letter to my kitchen. Dear Kitchen    Hope you are living a fulfilling life with all your jars filled to the brim with wheat , rice , pulses , sugar , tea ,coffee and cookies . I also hope that your sinks are now empty and clean unlike the last month when maid was on leave . Those days ,your sinks used to be piled up with utensils and it stinked so badly .  Dear kitchen , it's been around seventeen years that i am taking care of you . Now you are grown up as a teenager and so you should learn to be responsible and maintain your hygiene .  It feels good when my family agrees on khichdi and your cooker does the job   in  just one whistle . But you just don't cooperate when they demand Chole Bhature and you also start giving me tantrums . Remember ho...

Uplift your mood

 My evening today was not good . I was doing all domestic chores in a  burdened way. I tried watching some  movie but it couldn't interest me . One of my colleagues called to intimate me of  some upcoming duty. That further pressurized my bad  mood . I wore my shoes , put on my headphones and got ready for a walk . After walking for around half an hour and listening to old bollywood , my feet took me towards the splash pool where children were enjoying . I removed my shoes and sat there at the edge of the pool dipping my feet into the water. Watching me , one of my friends also came and sat along . Both of us sat for quite  long on the edge of pool - chatting and dabbling our toes in the water. This cooled my mind and uplifted my mood .  You need to find  your own ways to uplift your mood as and when required . Music , Dance ,Good food , Laughing , shopping ,picnic ,  playing any sport you like , painting , talking to someone , chanting a man...

I am getting Older day by day

 I have stopped spending too much money on clothing or accessories......... I have stopped thinking too much about pleasing others....... I have stopped looking daily into the mirror ....... I have stopped cooking those time consuming delicious meals for my family ...... TV doesn't excite me as much now ....... My fingers can't scroll for long on facebook....... I don't feel like keeping longer nails - file or paint them....... Am i getting older day by day ? Travelling, Cycling or small get-togethers; I love to spend money and time  on experiences now...... Only the fitness goals push me to  look into the mirror ..... I am able to overlook others' reactions when it comes to listen to my heart.  I recently denied a loved one's advice because my heart was unable to  accept it..... I cry easily now when i relate to someone's emotions , even watching a movie ...... Am i getting older day by day ?  or  Am i getting freer day by day ?  I wish to be dre...
