Get away from Stress

Add a comment

If you overwind your body like a clock it will start to run down. Perhaps, you overwind yourself everyday – if you dash around a lot, work hard to meet impossible deadlines and stay on top of your job, deal with problems at home, and have a demanding schedule.
Some degree of stress can be beneficial and enjoyable and enrich your life, but when it runs dangerously out of control and you can no longer cope with its fall-out, it may lead to physical and psychological problems. Many illnesses are psychosomatic triggered off by some stressful situation or our inability to cope with our everyday pressures.

Homemade Oils for Backache & other info

3 comments

Backache has become such a common ailment that one can hardly find a person who has not suffered from it. It can affect both the young and the old. One of the reasons why it has become so common now-a-days is the excessive luxury of our everyday lives with few people doing any regular exercise.

On the other hand, an executive, who has spent the day sitting on his comfortable cushioned chair, is seen slouching and walking with stooped shoulders.  Does he not look even more tired than the labourer?

Caring for your skin through Winter Chill

2 comments

The skin consists of 3 layers, namely, the cutis, the dermis and the epidermis which is the outermost layer. It takes roughly 28 days for the cells of the dermis to travel upwards to form the new epidermal layer.
Of course, this growth of cells depends on a variety of factors such as sunlight, age, skin disorders, etc. which can accelerate or retard the process.

The adult skin covers an area of about 18, 000 sq cm and weighs around 3.2 kg in women as compared to 4.8 kg in men. Isn’t that quite a sizeable proportion to look after and more so when it has to face the winter breeze?
