Necessary Facials. Why You Should Take Care of Your ENT.


Dear Friend,

Among the 8 reasons for visiting an ENT (Ears, Nose & Throat) specialist are :
  • Chronic ear infections
  • Sinusitis
  • Chronic sore throat
  • Sleep apnea (stopping breathing repeatedly while sleeping)
In the long tradition of yoga practice, as well as in Ayurvedic medicine, certain cleansing Dinacharya (daily-routines) are recommended for keeping your ENT in good health.

These could include:
  • Using a Neem- based toothpaste, gargling, and using a tongue scraper to remove mucus coating from the tongue; all as part of oral hygiene. Neem is a medicinal plant with anti-inflammatory and anti- bacterial properties.
  • Doing regular Nyasa (drops in the nose) with ghee to lubricate sinuses.
  • Doing regular Karna Purana - drops of warm oil in the ears.

The effect of these practices is to improve the quality of your Vishuddhi chakra.

Because your Vishuddhi also looks after your eyes and tongue, it could be described as the chakra for your face and personality.

With the daily practice of your Kundalini meditation, your Vishuddhi chakra is gradually being improved anyway.

So your Vishuddhi is the equivalent of having your own personal on-board ENT specialist. More below.

Also below: Nourishing yourself on some Zen art; and, a meditation for integrating the 3 parts of your heart.

Best wishes

It's been said that art by Sahaja yogis emits vibes. So here's some of the Chinese-inspired art of Prasad Beaven. His art won the 2021 Ciclitira Prize and here he is pictured being presented with it by HRH King Charles. Prasad says that his works emerge out of a meditative state. In other words, like the Zen of the ancient Chinese masters. Feel the vibes on this sample of Prasad's work at The Stratford Gallery...
Finding What You're Looking For In Your Heart First (a Meditation).
In your subtle body ('suksma-sarira') your physical heart has 3 parts to it : your left heart chakra, your centre heart chakra and your right heart chakra. Your left heart is coloured by your relationship with your mother; your right heart is coloured by your relationship with your father and your centre heart is your sense of security. Here's a meditation for your heart to restore perfection...
Taking Care of Your ENT. How Your Face Changes.
As your Vishuddhi chakra improves with your daily meditation, it not only looks after the health of your ears, nose and throat (ENT) but also has an effect on your overall facial appearance. Other people notice it on you first. Here are some of the changes to look out for - it's as if you're reconstructing yourself from the inside out...

 " Vishuddhi chakra also plays part, as you know, on the sixteen chakras or the sub-plexuses which look after your face, your ears, nose, eyes, neck – all these things are looked after by Vishuddhi chakra...Also the teeth and the tongue are looked after by Vishuddhi chakra. So your teeth which are in trouble get cured; also your tongue improves.

As a result , you can become great actors, you can have eyes which are innocent, you can have skin which is shining, you can have ears which can hear the divine music, you can have a nose which shows your dignity. In the same way, your whole facial expression changes."

" Sometimes when I meditate I find it difficult to become thoughtless. What can I do?"
In Reply:

When it's difficult to silence your thoughts, it's usually because of an 'over-active' or 'hot' liver.

To cool your liver down, you can place your left hand over it (below rib-cage on your right side), because your left hand/side represents your moon side which is cooling.

Alternatively, Instead of using your left hand, you could use an ice-pack covered in a tea towel, which will cool your liver down faster.

The effect is usually immediate, so as your liver cools down , your brain becomes quieter as well.

The ice-pack treatment is generally very good for any mental stress states.

How To Avoid Dementia When Older. Personality Trait Links To Chronic Illnesses.

How To Avoid Dementia When Older. Increasing Your Mental & Physical Resilience.


Dear Friend,

There's a moving 4 min scene, 'I want my mommy.' from the the 2020 film, The Father, and starring the British actor, Anthony Hopkins , which shows what the struggle with dementia later on in life looks like.

Unless you personally know somebody with dementia, the illness may not be of much concern. However, the risk of dementia starts much earlier on and the personality traits we have play a role.

We know, for example, that people with type A personality traits - aggressive and hard-charging - are more likely to get heart attacks.

dementia risk study was published in a Journal of Neurology in 2014, that shows that people who tend to distrust the motives of others ('cynical distrust') are more likely to get dementia.

This general link between personality traits and risk for certain illnesses, although being confirmed by modern medicine, actually goes back to the very beginnings of medicine with the Greeks and Egyptians.

It was known as the Four Temperament Theory where a person's personality was defined by the overload of one bodily fluid (humor) or another.

So a person could be regarded as phlegmatic (phlegm), sanguine (blood), choleric (yellow bile), melancholic (black bile).

This same idea is carried over into the ancient practice of Ayurvedic medicine, where disease and it's prevention and cure are based holistically on personality type or dosas.

Sahaja yoga goes deeper by breaking it down into whether a person tends to be 'left-sided', 'right-sided' and the state of their individual chakras.

This is why it is that your daily practice of your Kundalini meditation could be protecting you from dementia and other future illnesses. More below.

Also below:  learn how to 'shoe beat' to help you solve problems; and, making more use of your garden or the park to increase wellbeing.

Best wishes

If you ever find yourself in a position of difficulty created by another person, you can 'shoebeat' the issue to get relief.  This avoids any angry words being exchanged or ending up suffering in silence. The idea of symbolically beating something with shoes originates in Arabic culture. The Sahaj variation of this has been found to actually work on vibes as well. Grab your left shoe and listen to this .... 
Ground Work - Using The Mother Earth To Heal Yourself (with Meditation).
Your contact with the Mother Earth can be therapeutic. When you sit or lie down on the ground, or even just stand barefoot, there's an internal sensation of an almost magnetic pull on your chakras. This can help clear a chakra and therefore have a healing effect. Here's a short meditation to engage the power of your Kundalini as well, so you achieve a faster result.... 
How To Avoid Dementia When Older - Increasing Your Mental and Physical Resilience.
Companionship, family and friends, and social involvement have been shown to future-proof a person's health. But the tendency to personal isolation is also increasing in society. Here's what happens to you that increases your mental and physical resilience when your kundalini rises...

 "You’ll be able to correct your chakras. This is all by your central power.

And by this power only you have a very great power over your will. If you decide that you are going to be like this, you will be. If you want to be a happy person you will be. The transformation will be at your hand. You can transform yourself without any difficulty. That will work out, if you use the central power of Mahalakshmi."

" What can I do about financial insecurity?"
In Reply:

It's the subconscious fear of hunger so you need to work on your stomach ( Nabhi chakra) by giving it the feeling of fullness (satisfaction).

This doesn't mean binge eating. It means getting more vibes into your Nabhi. 

You can get more vibes into your Nabhi by placing your hand over your stomach while you meditate and 'drawing' vibes from your meditation photo with the other hand.

When the right hand is placed over your stomach and the extended fingers are pressing into the left side of your stomach, it's nourishing your left Nabhi chakra ( domestic issues).

When the left hand is placed over your stomach and the extended fingers are pressing into the right side of your stomach, it's nourishing your right Nabhi chakra (work issues).

This meditative exercise if done over a period of about a week, not only removes the insecurity but can also solve the underlying problem.
