The Pressure of "Pressure"

High blood pressure or "pressure" as it is commonly known is a nightmare everyone crave for. Be it a headache or a momentary giddiness, people wish to have their blood pressure measured. I am not talking about people above 55years of age, who are plagued by the fears of moving towards senility and decay. People who look fit and healthy, who are in the prime of their life, when they should be thinking about what to do next, are worried about hypertension. They need not be mocked at, for their fears are not in vain. It is a small wonder how the young generation is moving fast towards atherosclerosis, hypertension, heart diseases, stroke etc.

Homoeopathic Prescribing

Homoeopathic principles were put forward by Dr.Hahnemann. Homoeopathic prescribing is based on the principles of 'Similia Similibus Curentur', which means like cures like. Homoeopathy takes into consideration the person as a whole, not merely the disease symptoms. Each man is unique in health. Likewise in a diseased state his symptoms are unique. Then how can you prescribe the same medicine for all who are suffering from similar diseases.

Snacking

Snacking is the prime enemy of all weight loss plans. There are those absolutely, irresistible cravings for a cracker, cookie or a chocolate now and then. Snacking on fat loaded, empty sugars will undermine your efforts, diets and exercises. Snacking on healthy food items is a part and parcel of the success of weight loss plans. The key to losing weight, besides exercise is to split your meals evenly and take smaller portions. There will be hunger pangs in between.

A cheerful Lady

She came to my clinic to avail of the free treatment package sponsored by the management of Sea Shell Guest House. She was 60years old. she was waiting for me with a smile on her face.She was suffering from backache and pain in her knee joints. She could hardly stand straight, she had walked the distance from her house to my clinic, yet a smile on her face. She was slightly out of breath from all the walking and from the pain too, but with an unbeatable smile on her face. She lives with her son, who comes home only at night. Hers was a tale of toil and poverty,

Homoeopathy

Homoeopathy is pure science. The success of a homoeopath is the proof of the authenticity of the principles and therapeutics of homoeopthy. The failure of a homoeopath is not the failure of the system, it is rather a failure of the individual in understanding and practicing the principles of the system. There are several misunderstandings regarding homoeopathy.  A sceptic may raise various reasons to support his theory.

Smiles!!

A smile adds to your personality, we are indeed drawn to people who smile. What if that person has a chubby face, two large, very beautiful eyes, an upturned nose and a single tooth to adorn his smiles? The charm of his innocence, the warmth of a special bond, the fragrance of his drools and the lovely sounds he makes(my sister comments he scolds everyone), brings a cheer to my heart.

walking

Donning those walking shoes, breathing the fresh morning air, the refreshing breeze on my face and the glory of a breath taking sight marks the beginning of a new day for me. The desire of loosing those extra pounds coerced me into adorning the costumes of a 'walker'. The motive has moved up the scale, maybe a few steps higher. The extra pounds, the health benefits definitely loom large in my mind, the mind itself is tricked into the mood by the soothing effects of nature's bounty and the company of a childhood friend.
