Yoga can help you in the following ways:

Stay fit and healthy always. Daily practice asanas and pranayam that suit your time and energy. Ex. Few rounds of Suryanamaskar will keep you fully charged till the next day.

Prevent diseases. Practice important asanas, pranayam or kriyas daily. Ex. Doing jal-neti or Udgeeth pranayam will keep cough, cold, acidity at bay, clearing the respiratory pathway and bringing immunity in the changing seasons.

As a therapy. For instance, if you feel a problem in your ear, start practising "Karna shakti vikasak"(development of hearing power) or if you have started putting on flab on your waist, go for "Kati chakrasana or trikonasana.

Since morning, there was fog....not the one we experience in the severe winter months of December and January....smoke? yes it was smog (smoke+fog) in Delhi and other regions as a result of the fire in the Oil Depot in Jaipur a week ago. According to the met. dept. it will remain for two more days.
There can be irritation in the eyes --wash your eyes a few times a day and put Rose water in the eyes before sleeping.
There can be allergies -- Boost your immunity by continuing your Pranayam (start practising if you don't) to protect yourself from common cold, cough, sore throat and fever.

H1N1 excellent advice


Tip to help you avoid H1N1

The Holy basil (Tulsi) comes to our help to avoid H1N1 naturally. Five leaves of Tulsi taken with water every day keeps the swine flu away. Tulsi has a great medicinal value. It also boosts our immunity and keeps us healthy curing common cold, cough, sore throat, respiratory problems,stomach disorders, skin problems and is a great stress reliever.

Do not chew the leaves, instead break them into pieces and swallow with water(tulsi contains little quantities of mercury and damages our teeth if chewed).

Another way to have tulsi is: Boil a few leaves in water, strain and mix little of this water in your daily beverage (tea, milk, coffee, juice etc.)

If fresh leaves are not available, dry basil leaves (available in the market) or leaves dried at home can be used in curries and snacks. Go ahead, add another important herb (basil) on your kitchen shelf and stay healthy always.
