Law of Karma

Nature is so perfect that we cannot deny the fact that "whatever you give out, you get back". This incident took place last year:
I was standing on the road and was waiting eagerly for an auto, as I was getting late for a class. I was standing or walking around the same corner when suddenly one of my brother's friend, Saksham came around, I said "Hi!! Bhaiya", and I it was just a greeting to any known person you do, and I thought he will be moving across the road, he was in a car at that time. And those were office hours.
But, to my amazement, he stopped and asked me where do I have to go? I said to Mayur Vihar phase-1.
He asked me to hop in, as he said he will drop me to my place. I said, "thanks, bhaiya" that's really kind of you, but you can go, else you will be getting late for the office". he said he has left early today from home, just to be easy and relaxed as it was a cloudy day and cool breeze was there.
on the way, he gave some good advises to improve my career, but I hardly remember that, as I was happy that I got a comfortable ride.
That day I blessed him from all my heart. I came back home and told this incident to my brother, he was okay with it, but I was happy as nature helped me that day. I also wished, if I could reciprocate it somehow, I would be happy. But nothing happened. I used to remember this incident and used to feel grateful to nature and him.

Last week, it was a Sunday morning and I was walking in the park. The park was beautiful and the breeze was cool. I have been teaching free yoga classes since last two year according to the instructions given by Ministry of Ayush, in order to celebrate International Yoga Day!
So plenty of people know me by face, because of the work.
I was walking and an uncle came and asked me "excuse me, madam, I have severe back pain, I have seen you teaching yoga, can you please guide me with what to do". He added, he had been doing plenty of things to heal his back pain. But nothing helped him, that much.
So, I said "okay uncle", it would be best to do shalabasana, bhujangasana, kandarasana, ardhachandrasana, and a few more. But most important thing I asked him to relax.  and then after a small training, I said bye. A few minutes later, I thought that maybe he is wearing the wrong shoe, so I must ask him to change the shoe. I asked him to show me the shoe, and they were  puma walking shoes, which are very good.
So, I told him to check and buy a good mattress, a 32 density foam mattress will help him, he said he has it, but also asked me to visit his home and check if they are good. To make me feel comfortable he said if I wish only then to visit, else no need. I thought, okay no issues.
I said I may ask him to come for the class and its good to share knowledge, so I went. Their aunt was waiting for uncle. When I entered she recognized me as the yoga teacher, I was happy to find that people know me for my work. As we moved forward to check the mattress, aunty discussed her son's friend, who visits them and his mother is a principal and sister is a yoga teacher.
This was my description, I thought. But, I had never seen those people before. They said their son, is in the next room, I said okay, maybe someone, the moment I peeped into his room, i was amazed to see saksham bhaiya. I was just happier. I was awed by nature's ability to balance. I taught both uncle and aunty some asanas to overcome back pain and cervical pain. I did the session with more peace and then I returned.
That day! I feel more in love with the law of karma, which one serves, and now my faith has shifted more into the same.

10 best ways to avoid heart attack

It has become a common phenomenon now, to hear that people are suffering from heart attack and losing their heart. So, what is it that makes you lose the heart?
Doctors say cholesterol, weight, b.p., wrong food, etc.
IF you look deeply! you will find that our food urges are dependent on the quality of our emotion. Our emotions expressed or unexpressed govern our bodies. if you are going through some bitter experience in life you would like to go for something bitter, the pungent experience will make you feel like eating something pungent or bend towards something pungent, the sweet experience will make you feel like serving and sharing something sweet, and on goes this cycle,
Now, when we do something like this, it may be seen that we are living and serving the emotion. If one is serving the emotion, he/she is also flowing with it. All this adds up to the already existing emotional response in the body and putting its effect on the heart. As the heart is the circulatory machine of the system. So, you may think what to do to express it in a positive way. Learning to release the emotion in a positive way can make all the difference. Some easy techniques to  express emotion or save your heart are as follows:
1. Express it only to one or two people, don't show your pain to the world: Expressing pain on FB or watspp will not help you in dealing with it. It will exist the same way it used to be. Even you are multiplying the effects of the pain by talking more about it. By repetition of words or emotions which appear painful, you are pushing yourself in the zone of self-pity.
2. Drink green juices: Drink juices of cucumber, white gourd or any green fruit or vegetable to restore balance to the heart chakra. Green is the color of the chakra which brings balance to the pranic system of the body.
3. Listen to subliminal music to release stress: These kinds of music are a piece of healing music designed by psychologists or sound therapists, the messages are converted into the tunes so that words do not enhance your pain.
4. Maintain silence to heal: When words do not heal, practice silence. In the case of intense pain just sleep, eat and sleep. Sleep has amazing benefits in fighting pain.
5. Sleep for longer hours: These days 6-8 hours of sleep is recommended as the only way to dissolve physiological effects of pain is in the sleeping state. Sleep more, so that your inner healing power is restored to health.
6. Listen to a good lecture: Youtube is filled with stuff on healing and self-help, you are your own best friend, just listen, nature brings the best to you effortlessly.
7. Take a walk: A small walk or a long walk in a beautiful park, especially in early morning or late evening can bring a lot of healing. Walk in nature ensure the release of healthy stress busting hormones.
8. Stand with your arms wide open and breathe!
9. Contemplate on being nothing: The material word has made everything material for us, even our emotions are material, as the world is selling the emotion of sadness or grief, we think it's good to show our pain also, the world must see the drama of my life.
10. Create new belief system: You have hypnotized yourself to be in pain, you hypnotized yourself in grief, so you can hypnotize yourself to happiness.

Make sure to believe in yourself, if one can do it, all can do it!!!
