Achieving Your Health, Wealth & Happiness By 10-Minutes Daily Thoughtless Awareness. Making Better Decisions. The Power of Your Hamsa (Discriminative Awareness). Dear Friend, You'd probably be surprised to know that you (and everybody else) make something like 35,000 decisions a day, according to this post in Psychology Today. In a typical day, a lot of this deciding is about the small things. This could include deciding what you're going to wear, for example. Occasionally, a small decision may end up being consequential. Such as deciding to take a left rather than a right and encountering an unexpected opportunity or a threat. But, it's generally agreed, the really big decisions people have to make usually relate to 5 areas: Relationships & Family Career & Education Finances & Housing Location & Lifestyle Health & Wellbeing What may surprise you even more is how your sense of smell, or, more precisely your Hamsa chakra which looks after your olfactory bulb, helps you make better decisions. Using the sense of smell to make a decision is well-developed in animals. If you have a pet dog, for example, then you already know that they can smell danger. In human beings, this discriminative awareness which comes from the sense of smell is not so well developed. It can be trained in certain professions such as perfumiers and sommeliers. Your discriminative awareness and therefore your ability to make better decisions, improves as your hamsa improves with your daily kundalini meditation. More below. Also below: a simple Ayurvedic practice that improves your hamsa; and, a simple meditation to improve your focus and creativity. Best wishes P.

Nasal Oil Therapy for Lubricating Sinuses & Mental Clarity. The downside of spending a lot of time in air-conditioned spaces, such as an office, is that it tends to dry out your sinuses. Your sinuses are your first line of defense against air-borne infection, by producing mucus. To restore the optimum functioning of your sinuses, this Ayurvedic nasal treatment is beneficial. Use warm ghee, which you can make at home. The added bonus is that it gives you mental clarity and improves your Hamsa chakra... Getting More Done with Less Effort by Improving Focus & Creativity ( a Meditation). Before I start a piece of work, I take a few moments to meditate on what I want to achieve by the end of it. I hold the goal at Sahasara (crown of head) and then I go thoughtless for about a minute. What then typically happens when I start that work is that there's less 'friction' and things flow better. I'm able to get more done with less effort. Here's a meditation you can use to try this... Making Better Decisions- Judge Everything on Vibes. The discriminative awareness that comes to you from your hamsa chakra is an intuitive reflex - you just know. However, it's closely related to your awareness of the vibes different possible choices give out. If in doubt about any decision you have to make then try and judge it on vibes, as advised...

Quote of the Week   " To understand Hamsa chakra - there’s a beautiful couplet about this in Sanskrit: ““Hamsah shvetah, bakah shvetah. kah bhedah hamsa bakayo? Nira-kshira viveketu. Hamsah hamsah, bakah bakah.” Meaning ‘The crane and the swan, both are white. And what makes a difference between the two? If you mix the water and the milk together the hamsa (swan) will just suck in the milk. So it can discriminate between the water and the milk while the bakha, means the crane, cannot’." July 10th 1988, Grafenaschau (Germany). What's the Sahaja yoga remedy for Flu and Cold?  In Reply: There's no specific Sahaj remedy for Flu and Cold. However, given how  Ayurvedic medicine aligns closely with Sahaja yoga, there are a few things you can do to alleviate the symptoms based on Ayurveda. Tulsi (Holy Basil) - Boil the leaves down and drink the decoction as a tea with a little honey. This will act as a decongestant and soothe the throat. Basil is also an antiviral and supports a strong immune system. Ginger - It's easy to just buy some lemon and ginger tea, but you'll probably get a stronger effect from buying the actual ginger root, peeling, slicing and boiling that to make a decoction for drinking with some honey. Ginger is anti-inflammatory, clears mucus and helps digestion. Turmeric - Add a pinch to warm milk and drink that . It's also anti-inflammatory and can help to ease body aches.

Achieving Your Health, Wealth & Happiness By 10-Minutes Daily Thoughtless Awareness. Is a Little Alcohol a Good Thing? What The Liver Has to Say. Dear Friend, If you work in a certain kind of office you may be familiar with the after-work ritual of the team visit to  the pub. The drinks are ordered and arrive. As the alcohol begins to kick-in, people begin to relax. The work tension goes away. The tongue is loosened. This is the effect of alcohol acting as a 'social lubricant' . It breaks the ice and people can bond better. If the pub is not your thing then maybe it's the family gathering; or the party, or even the wedding reception that you get invited to, where drinks are served. Or, perhaps, you enjoy a glass by yourself at home after a busy day to take the edge off things. In all these cases, the 'positives' may be being outweighed by the downsides. That is according to not only this Advisory from the US Surgeon General, but also from your liver's point of view. According to yoga, the liver is the 'seat of your attention' or awareness. It acts like your car windscreen. In a similar way that a car windscreen gives you a view of the road in front of you, your awareness / attention gives you the experience of yourself as well as the world around you. In its pristine state, your awareness / attention is 'pratyaksha' which you had in early childhood. Over the course of time, with the development of speech, language, thinking, experiences, diet, alcohol, drugs, the state of pratyaksha is lost. To regain pratyaksha , the liver has to detoxify, helped by your kundalini's action on your right swadisthana chakra with your daily meditation. This is like turning on the windscreen wipers in adverse weather conditions. The most 'adverse weather conditions' are those things that damage the liver in the long-term, which are alcohol and drugs. More below.

According to research, about 90% of what people worry about never happens. And in the small percentage of cases where it does happen, it turns out not to be as bad as expected and is completely manageable. The conclusion is that if you tend to worry about things then you're likely wasting your time. Here's how the power of your mental silence fixes that. The 'Liver Diet' : What's Hot, What's Not. In Ayurvedic medicine, an excess of pitta dosha,  sometimes referred to as 'aggravated pitta' mostly affects the liver . This can lead to inflammatory symptoms such hyperacidity, skin and digestive problems as well as quick temper and irritability. Alcohol is pitta-creating and so are certain foods that you might be eating . To help your liver out, here are some tips from the 'liver diet'...

The awareness, the chitta, the attention is in your Void and is nourished by your liver. The liver takes out all the poison from your awareness, due to bad health, due to bad mind, due to anything from bad effects or negativity and then it clears out.  Your awareness is to be enlightened." February 7th 1981, New Delhi (India). How can I develop myself spiritually?  In Reply: The only real way to grow is through your daily meditation. Imagine yourself as an upside down tree with the roots in the brain (sahasrara) and the branches in the body.  Your kundalini acts like a tap root that pushes deeper down, when you're thoughtless. As she pushes deeper down you feel the effect as a more continuous flow of vibes, even when you're not meditating. With this, your sense of wellbeing increases and begins to permeate the things around you. Click Here For Tues/ Thurs Live Group Guided Meditation & Music (Audio) Living Your Best Life Mind Rest.
