There is a lot of literature available about the power of positive thinking in your life and the contribution of positive thinking towards success. If you are reading this you would probably already know that positive thinking is an essential part of any small achievement in our lives and of course no negative thinking person will be motivated enough to achieve something worthwhile in his life. Negative thinking paralyzes you.
So the main reason for me to write about the power of positive thinking is to tell what positive thinking can do for us apart from the achievement of our worthwhile goals.
But before knowing what positive thinking can do for you, you have to know that we experience our life through the five senses we have. We see, we tough, we taste, we smell, and we hear the world and experience it. These five senses help us in experiencing the life right from our birth till death. We experience the life by our body.
Every type of emotion every type of feeling experienced by the body. You feel sad when you see something bad happening or hear about something bad happening. You also think about something bad happening to you and become sad.
Now try this exercise, sit in chair, calm yourself and try to think about something which can make you sad. Thinking happens in words or pictures….make a sequence of these which can make you sad. Slowly you start to feel sad.
Now observe your body, your facial muscles…how do feel there, tight, numb, pain. Observe you entire body especially your facial muscles, your chest, your shoulders, fingers and toes. There will be different types of uneasy sensations going through your body. Now that is how you experience sadness…through your body.
Throughout your life’s duration, you experience your life by your body. There are many emotions good, bad, and ugly and thousands of shades of emotions many of which cannot be expressed through words
Coming back to the importance of positive thinking, this induces a positive sensation in your body which is very comfortable to live with. There will a lot of comfort in the body. There will no resistance to action. Positive thinking moves you forward while negative thinking restricts your movement towards achievement.
For one day think about your goals or desires and think positively and see yourself moving towards those goes and desires one step each time and with positive results at each step and you successfully moving to the next step. Think about these the entire day and observe your body.
Positive thinking is one of the simple steps towards a great life. People don’t become great by reading self help books or this blog. Great men are born to become great many of them are not good speakers, they don’t have great bodies, don’t have great personalities, not early raisers (especially when they the habit or working till early morning), and are busy to write their goals, … in short many of the great men do not have the qualities which these personality gurus teach about because they don’t read them
I am not telling that self help books don’t help, but they don’t make you great. You can actually achieve a lot of success in all the fields with constant continuous effort. But this blog is for those people like me who live simple lives and with small changes like thinking positive in small situations can have a life of simple greatness.

The Truth About Massage Therapy and Benefits
Massage:
As an Indian I am quite familiar the massage. Everyone in India especially those who live in rural India takes massage at least once every week. Almost every person is experienced in giving massage to the other family members. People in our part of India generally use warm coconut or sesame oil for the massage. This massage is performed with the person sitting on a stool being rubbed with warm oil to the entire body along with the scalp and face.
Local barbers are considered as experts in this type of massage. These people are well experienced in manipulating the muscles and tendon to relieve the strain and ensure good blood flow every part of the muscle. Massages are usually performed to relieve the muscle tension and muscle and pain and also reduce the stiffness of the muscles. Massage has the ability to increase flexibility and mobility. Massage is considered to remove metabolic waste from the body.
The necessity of massage is more in the modern area and urban lifestyle because of relative lack of exercise. As massage works well from both sprain due to excess use of the muscle and for incomplete blood flow to the muscles due to lack of usage of the muscle. As I said earlier in this blog we have about 639 muscles and very rarely use all of these on a daily basis
Due to prolonged sitting in a chair in front of computer and watching TV continuously for hours lying down in a couch on a regular basis, we lose the strength in many of the important muscles. Due to the continues pressure on some of the muscle like gluteus muscles (buttock muscles) due to prolonged sitting for hours on a daily basis, we tend to have improper blood supply to these muscle resulting in muscle pain. Regular massage enables adequate the blood supply to these muscles.
Ayurveda practitioners use herbal oils with medicinal quality. As the skin is a good absorber along with pain and stress relief massage with herbal oils works as good treatment for specific diseases where the medicine is absorbed through the skin.
Massage Therapy Benefits:
Massage us used as a therapy along with physical therapy due to its success in reducing the pain and stiffness in the muscle resulted due to trauma and prolonged disuse. Massage also is helpful in returning the blood supply in muscles which are not getting adequate blood supply due to disuse for a long time.
Due to the demand by the patients, massage therapy slowly became popular in rehabilitation in trauma cases. Apart from both mental and physical relaxation, massage therapy is also used for many health conditions like back pain, inflammatory arthritis, tendonitis, headaches, migraines, muscle spasm, muscle strain, muscle sprain, blood circulation problems, and carpel tunnel syndrome etc.
Massage Therapy Session:
A massage therapy session makes take half an hour to two hours depending on the method used. Massage as a therapy needs consultation with the therapist does decide the method of the therapy depending on your medical problem.
You will be taken to a massage room and asked to remove the clothes cover yourself with a sheet and lie down on the massage table. The temperature of the room is maintained according the therapy method. You can request to adjust the room temperature if it is too hot to you. Some people continue to wear there undergarments. Some do not prefer massagers of the opposite gender, and these needs of the patient/person will be considered before the session.
The massager used the prescribed oil and starts to massage. The massager concentrates on one part of the body each time and the other body will be covered under sheets. The style of massage used in different countries is different. Most often you will feel very relaxed after the massage, but sometimes you may have aches and pains which may resolve within few hours, but be sure to tell the therapist how you are feeling.
One more important point is to call the therapist for an appointment beforehand. There are certain tips to need to take care of like no heavy meals before massage which will be conveyed to you by the therapist.

Natural Exercise For Health
All the types of exercise, aerobics, weight lifting, cycling, and many more are not natural to human beings. These exercises are designed after man stopped being physically active when he came out of the jungles and formed civilized societies, cars, bikes, and computers.
Sitting in front of a computer working all the day is also not natural and that is the reason why you get sick within a few years as a computer engineer. Adding to this unnatural ways of working life, we also start to develop methods of eating, drinking, and sleeping which are also unnatural. Driving in a busy traffic is not natural to us, we have to driving in busy roads is not natural to us, watching TV for hours late in the night is not natural to us.
Many of these things we do are necessary like working in front of a computer. Some of our unnatural habits can be avoided like watching TV for hours till mid night, eating junk food are some of the habits we can actually avoid.
We have come so far into the civilization with technological development, going back is impossible now. But with a little creativity, we can have exercise to our body, rest to our mind, and stress release to both. You can start natural exercises for health.
Walking is one of the basic exercises our body needs to have. Surprisingly, slowly we are forgetting how to walk. Lack of walking results in losing the powers in your hamstring and quadriceps muscles. Without exercise these muscles atrophy and muscles pull on bones acting like a lever system and hence whenever you climb stairs or try to walk long distances suddenly your knees get hurt and you start having a knee pain.
This is just a simple example of what can happen to your body by not walking enough. Think about what can happen to your body by not doing other natural things which your body is built for like running, climbing, playing, fighting, jumping, shouting, crying, laughing, making faces (facial muscle exercise), pulling, pushing, etc.
We have 639 muscles in us and 30 of them are facial muscles. All of these muscles need exercise to continue working healthily. Your heart is also a muscle; it also needs exercise to continue to be healthy.
You can adopt few of your natural behaviors and stay healthy without actually getting into a regular exercise program. Walk more use your creativity and come out with a list of adjustments which can make you to walk more. I am not going to give you tips like parking your care a bit further away from your office because that may not be feasible to you. It is better if you come up with your our tips to walk more.
One think I have seen very effective is keep bragging about your walking, tell your family about your walking, why you are doing it, and what are the benefits you are getting from it. Keep talking about these benefits, in weeks, in months, and in years. This type of bragging creates self image and image others develop about you. They may feel bored about your bragging but as they develop an image of you as a person who developed creative ideas to walk more on a daily basis, a person who is healthier than most of them, a person with a lot of discipline.
Though it may look funny at the beginning for them but in due course your friends and you yourself will recognize new character trait discipline in you. When it comes to belief people choose a man with discipline.
With the success with your walking, slowly develop ideas to give work to all the 639 muscles in your body, laugh more. If watching “Pursuit of Happyness” makes you cry, please cry. Develop ways to de-stress yourself, your mind. Cut your TV time. My personal favorite is playing with my dog. It gives me and dog a lot of exercise, lot of laughing, lot of love and a better health.
Now take a pencil and a paper and start listing your ideas for a healthy life without exercise.

The Importance of Water Filters
The water in our body takes care of many important systemic tasks. The rise in the temperatures increases the body temperature which when crossed a limit is dangerous to our health. The keep the temperature at the optimum level, our body releases water in the form of sweat which brings down the body temperature. Drinking a glass of cool water will also decrease your temperature. The lack of water in the body to take care of the rise of body temperature often leads to heat stroke. Water is also good solvent and through which essential electrolytes which are lost in sweat can be re-supplied to the body.
Oral or intravenous re-hydration is the first treatment step when someone is dehydrated due to loss of body fluids due to exhaustion, vomiting, and diarrhea. At a normal natural level our body when it needs water indicates in the form of thirst. Apart from thirst, our body also indicates the need for water in many other symptoms, when these symptoms and signs are ignored, body systems start shutting down.
The other importance of water is in excretion. Metabolic poisonous substances are removed by the water present in the body filtered by the kidney in the form of urine. Water is also a good natural curative; we always use wet hot and cold compresses to relieve bodily pain due to sprains and physical exhaustion. Hot and cold shower makes your energy come back after a long tiring day. Drinking adequate pure water prevents a lot diseases including overweight.
Unfortunately, this living giving water is being polluted so much so that it has become something which instead of curative became the carrier of disease and instead of giving life started to take if not life, the spirit of life with a number of diseases attacking you regularly.
Polluting natural pure water is a problem created by man and can be solved by. To have pure drinking water like our forefathers had, we have to stop polluting water, but this problem is so deep that it will take tens and hundreds of years to completely stop polluting depending of will of the modern man. There are no guarantees that this will of the modern man ever work so hard to completely eradicate pollution.
The other solution for the problem is using water filters or purifiers. This is a solution which can be undertaken by every man without any help from the authorities. By installing a water filter in your house, you can at least take care of the purity of drinker water of your family.
Types of Water Filters
To solve the problem of impurities in the drinking water, modern man started to look for solutions everywhere. Though they are called water filters which refer to removal of sedimentation or dirt in the water through the process of filtration, most of the water filters are actually water purifiers which remove harmful organic and inorganic materials along with filtering the water to remove the dirt. The capacity of the water filter to purify depends on many factors like the type of filtration system used, quality of the filtration cartridges, age of the filtration system, quality of the water filtered etc
Ceramic Water Filters
The most basic method of water filters are ceramic water filters. These are found commonly as bench-top water filters. The basic type of ceramic water filter uses ceramic candles or cartridges with very tiny microscopic pores to remove the dirt present in the water. These basic filters cannot actually purify the water of the organic impurities like bacteria and virus and inorganic impurities like different kinds of chemicals.
The next level ceramic water filters come impregnated with nano silver which is effective in trapping the bacteria. The problem with ceramic type of water filters is that the flow of water is very slow.
Carbon Water Filters
Carbon water filters are made up of charcoal produced from coconut husk. Activated charcoal filled cartridge has a capacity to absorb the impurities from the water when the water passes through it. To also stop bacteria, the carbon is impregnated with activated silver. Usually when used as a household water filter, these filters come with an extra dirt filter fitted which filters the water before the water enters the carbon chamber.
Reverse Osmosis Water Filters
In this method of filtration, water passes through an extremely fine membrane. Lot of pressure is applied to stop osmosis and reverse it. The result of reverse osmosis water filter is very finely filtered water.
Ultra Violet Light Water Filters
This is a very effective method of filtering the water. Ultra violet radiations are used to kill the microorganisms present in the water. Water before going through the ultraviolet light passes through a sediment water filtration system and then an activated silver impregnated carbon chamber to get rid of both dirt and minerals and organic material impurities.
All of the water filtration systems described above is used as small household water filters and also large water filtration systems.
Oral or intravenous re-hydration is the first treatment step when someone is dehydrated due to loss of body fluids due to exhaustion, vomiting, and diarrhea. At a normal natural level our body when it needs water indicates in the form of thirst.

The next level ceramic water filters come impregnated with nano silver which is effective in trapping the bacteria. The problem with ceramic type of water filters is that the flow of water is very slow.
Carbon Water Filters
Carbon water filters are made up of charcoal produced from coconut husk. Activated charcoal filled cartridge has a capacity to absorb the impurities from the water when the water passes through it. To also stop bacteria, the carbon is impregnated with activated silver. Usually when used as a household water filter, these filters come with an extra dirt filter fitted which filters the water before the water enters the carbon chamber.
Reverse Osmosis Water Filters
In this method of filtration, water passes through an extremely fine membrane. Lot of pressure is applied to stop osmosis and reverse it. The result of reverse osmosis water filter is very finely filtered water.
Ultra Violet Light Water Filters
This is a very effective method of filtering the water. Ultra violet radiations are used to kill the microorganisms present in the water. Water before going through the ultraviolet light passes through a sediment water filtration system and then an activated silver impregnated carbon chamber to get rid of both dirt and minerals and organic material impurities.
All of the water filtration systems described above is used as small household water filters and also large water filtration systems.
