After Food, ... We need Stories

Food nourishes our Body, Stories nourish our Mind. Our wellbeing depends on both  - a healthy body and a healthy mind. 

As we know, the root cause of many of our sicknesses is psychosomatic i.e.,  due to anxiety of the mind and negative emotions such as anger, depression, jealousy and hate. 



So we have to eat healthy and at the same time strengthen and uplift our minds with info. and insights gained from reading of good writing sources and stories. These stories  also help us to progress, in our career for main income or sidehustles.

A Higher Perch – to See Things in Perspective

When we fine-tune to our natural surroundings we can often find simple solutions to our complex situations. When we place ourselves at a higher level like a bird perched on a pole, we can see the different aspects of an opportunity or problem without, I quote "pride and prejudice" or being unduly influenced by our own emotions as well as by others.

Also, a more complete view gives us a better solution!


An Eagle-eye View – to See Things in full Perspective


The eagle has a unique vision that is exceptionally powerful and sharp. Eagles are found to have, almost panoramic vision.- they can see a long way over a wide area. They can also notice small objects and details from a very long distance.



An Eagle-eye View – to See Things in full Perspective


A person with an eagle-eye perspective can see future and long term aspects of current topics and situations and can take appropriate decisions and actions.
When we train ourselves to acquire such a perspective, it becomes very useful to navigate more smoothly, our personal life and work areas.



A Higher Perch helps Seeing things in Perspective!


Pausing to Put 'Reason above emotion or
impulse’ when dealing with our life needs and issues, can take us to this higher Perch.


A Higher Perch – to See Things in Perspective



A Distance View" for a Better Perspective"

A "Distance View" enables a Better Perspective ... An objective or detached thinking also helps Seeing things in Perspective!

A "Distance View" for a Better Perspective

When we lose Perspective we lose track. Then, daily stress and strain takes its toll on our Health, Relationships and Life Goals.

So, let's position ourselves at a higher perch and take a distance view of our life ways, our issues, opportunities ...

And get our life back on track.

Our Second Heart to our Rescue....

Increasing Sickness indicates poor health. Restoring Blood parameters may be key to Restore Health. Here is where our Second Heart(Calf Muscle Pump) comes to our Rescue…Along with blood profile parameters, knowing the role of  the Second Heart in Blood Circulation, is important for correcting Blood flow to sick parts of our body





Why is Regular Exercise of our Calf Muscles important?  It improves Blood Circulation of the whole body. As per veintreatmentcenter.com "The Second Heart or Calf Muscle Pump is a system of muscles, veins, and valves in the calf and foot that work together to push deoxygenated blood back up to the heart and lungs.  When valves become defective or weak the second heart can be overwhelmed, blood can pool in veins, and varicose veins, spider veins, and Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI) can develop."

Our Life Needs - Introducing Few Educator Resources …..


 



“Our Life Needs, With a Nature View”
A lifestyle with a Nature View is Self-Renewing.


Hello, 

Wish this note finds you in good spirits!

We learn various subjects in School and in Higher Education - they serve as stepping stones in our life-journey. We move ahead in life, then sometimes we review our paths to pick up some missing links from our school days, required for our harmony. These subjects too contribute to our wellbeing - for Psychologists say that “there is a child, an adult and a parent in every man”.  

They help us in our life journey - we acquire basic skills required to achieve goals in our personal and work areas. 



Our academic learning of the Arts, Languages, Science and Technology, Social Sciences as well as our experiences, equip us to enjoy success and face challenges in the same stride.


 Our modern lifestyle and current activities, demand different life skills. A Teaching and Learning site with a “Broad Reserve of Resources” would be a dependable source for providing the right solution.







I am creating some resources with academic and life skills orientation. They would help us know more about our Lifestyle Needs, which include Food Science, Health and related areas - with a Nature View. The more our understanding about the various interconnections in our lifestyle and Nature the more self-renewal and harmony, we bring into our lives. 

Hope these topics are applicable in a general way to most visitors and hence would benefit  a large audience of readers.

Please visit my Teaching and Learning Stores and avail the FREE and PAID Resources and DISCOUNT OFFERS(details will be given on the front page and in my blog, http://www.mirshells.com/ ) and leave a Comment & Rating. Feedback may also be given via the contact form in mirshells.com. These reviews would support my efforts immensely.

Thank You

Mirella

Turning around our “Anxiety” to “Feel Good”

Anxiety and Joy are emotions or states of the mind which we all experience. Since, they are 2 important factors for our wellbeing, knowing how to balance them is a key to our wellness. The dark clouds of Anxiety, can be balanced to lesser anxiety and we can even make our minds ready to experience Joy. 

Modern lifestyle is accompanied by its fair share of anxiety. The reason or reasons for our anxiety may be within ourselves, or in the external economic or social environment. There is surely no magic formula to "Turn around our 'Anxiety' to 'Feel Good' ”





A "Comprehensive" or "wholistic" (holistic) approach would as in most life issues, require our efforts at the body, mind and spirit levels




Role of Food in "Stress and Anxiety":

We may take note that Food also has a role as regards our “Anxiety” and “Feel Good” or “Be happy” conditions and dispositions. Studies indicate that too much refined and processed foods, a very acidic diet and food with unhealthy added sugars & chemical additives play a negative role, as regards our well-being.
However, Pure Water, alkaline forming foods & drinks and certain food nutrients play a positive role to bring about the “feel good” states of our body and mind




In our current times, Stress factors and conditions have “come to stay”. So, we might as well “come to terms” with them. However when we allow them to remain for a long term without being checked or managed well (Coping with Stress), this may lead to Anxiety and related disorders.


Vitamin B complex comprise the eight B vitamins — B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, B12. It refers to all of the known essential water-soluble vitamins except for vitamin C: thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), pantothenic acid(B5), pyridoxine (B6), biotin, folic acid, and the cobalamins (B12). B vitamins are all important for cell metabolism and energy.


A deficiency in certain nutrients such as the B vitamins and minerals such as Magnesium, may also contribute to stress and anxiety. Also stress in turn, depletes these stress relieving vitamins and minerals. Therefore, as regards nutritional support for stress and anxiety, we can include foods rich in specific nutrients such as - B Group vitamins, vitamins A, C, D & E, and minerals such as Calcium, Iron, Magnesium and Zinc in our diet. 

Nutrition supplements as per medical advice may also be needed to restore our health and "feel good".

Stress Causes Suckness

Stress, if left Unchecked can make you Sick.
Adrenal glands, located above the kidneys produce hormones that regulate vital body functions. Many of these hormones have roles to do, with how the body responds to stress, The adrenal hlands release certain hormones directly into the bloodstream.







"Adrenal glands produce hormones that help regulate your metabolism, immune system, blood pressure, response to stress and other essential functions." source:
hopkinsmedicine.org

For Info on Adrenal Glands, Hormones, Functions, Disorders read article -.Adrenal glands


Role of Good "Give and Take" Relationships: 


People in their homes, workplace and social units function within physical and natural environments. When we GIVE what we TAKE in value terms, while interacting with other individuals or organizations or elements of our environment  -  that is a healthy relationship. 


When we nurture good and comparable Give & Take relationships, all of us stand to gain.  Or else we lose one way or the other ………at some point of time. Thus when we give knowledge we also gain knowledge. When we sell good produce we gain good reputation, which shall pay us back in future. 






When we are eco-friendly we enjoy a better quality of life. When we spread hygiene & health, we are more likely to avoid factors that cause sickness and keep healthy ourselves. 


Let us keep in mind that nurturing good people relationships and a nature loving lifestyle, eliminate many physical and psychological "stressors" that cause anxiety.
