Frozen Shoulder

What is frozen shoulder?

How to  tackle the pain?

• Avoid  drinks containing caffeine as it increases the stiffness. e.g. cold drinks and coffee.
• Avoid milk products as they increase inflammation.
• Increase intake of raw fruits like Cherries, Berries, Papaya and Pineapple.These reduce inflammation.

Tips

2 tablespoons of flax seeds every day will help in improving stiffness and inflammation.

Use turmeric and ginger extensively in your diet as they have anti inflammatory properties.  They stimulate circulation and relieve pain.

Advise

All types of stress further aggravate the pain. So daily relaxation exercises are essential. Visit a good Homoeopathic doctor for relief in pain.

Start with deep breathing exercises -Pranayam and then do 10-20 minutes of meditation. It relaxes the muscles and releases all tension from the  area.

Medicines

Plumbum metallicum, Arsenic album, Veratrum album are some of the medicines that help alleviate the pain but should be used only after consulting a doctor.

Importance of Fats in food

Fats are equally required by our body as other nutrients. Our body needs a healthy combination of protein, cards, vitamins,minerals and fats to function properly. We need to be  choosy  as to what  kinds of fat we are eating. 

Nuts- Like almonds (soaked 4-5) , walnuts (soaked 1-2) , are nutritional boon. They are good for the heart, bone health,immunity building  and also help in reducing cholesterol.

Flax seeds- These are power packed fat packages. Toasted flax seeds fight against diabetes and act as natural laxatives. (1 spoon a day)

Eggs- Excellent source of protein and energy for the  day.

Olives- Have antioxidant, anti - inflammatory and anti cancer properties.  Use in salads, pastas or sandwiches.

Sesame seeds- are loaded with good fats along with calcium. 

Use groundnut oil, ricebran oil , olive oil or even burnt  mustard oil for cooking purposes so as to  get a great balance of MUFA (monosaturated fatty acids) and PUFA ( poly saturated fatty acids ) which help in overall weight management.

FOOD FOR GOOD HEALTH

We all know how important food is for  our body but  we need to understand what is right to eat.

These days there are lot of advertisements, food channels that show new recipes from across the world and watching these anyone would want to try something new.

Follow few rules before you run for the  kitchen.

• Raw fruits and vegetables are full of vitamins,  minerals and antioxidants which reduce to quite an extent while cooking. It means that if we can eat apples raw it is more nutritious than eating them as tinned or as Apple pie etc.
• Cucumbers, zerkin, carrots, tomatoes are definitely better as raw form rather than having them pickled.
• Processed food should be  avoided as much as possible.  These foods are high in sugar, salt , fat and artificial  agents which are used to enhance the taste. 
• Anything packaged on the shelves of a supermarket which can last more than 10 days is processed. Even dals,  cereals are also processed but these are  less processed.
• If anyone has to eat processed food like baked beans, tuna fish  or any other thing then add lots of raw vegetables to it and roll it in a chapatti and have it 

These foods are definitely hassle free but not nutritious. 

HEALTH IS WEALTH  SO DON'T COMPROMISE IT WITH TASTE

Past Life Regression ( Emotions )

A lot of people are trying their best to move out of situations where they have been stuck for years and are giving up. People who have been through physical, mental and emotional experience, sexual abuse at any age, constant rhythms and cycles of depression and so much more . They do have a right to live and enjoy this beautiful life God has given. 

We are aware that the soul when created was at same vibration as that of the Divine. Throughout its journey, the soul has Free Will to make choices and choose its path; each lifetime evolves the soul and takes us closer to the completion of Karma and closer to the Source - Our Creator. 

Emotions and Patterns From Previous Births

We carry emotions and patterns from previous births, every time we incarnate, along with the Karmas that we need to complete. On a metaphysical level one can see that a much larger force – Karma from our previous life times, controls the challenges, habits, and disease, which we carry with us. One cannot free oneself from the past until we realize and work on the issues that hold us back on a metaphysical level.

Every one has problems, but some of us have more on one level than the other. If you are experiencing repetitive disharmony in your life, unanswered questions, a feeling of in-completion then, "PAST LIFE REGRESSION THERAPY IS THE ANSWER".

Handling growing children.

Teen years are challenging both for the parents and children.

Aggression comes in children due to hormonal changes. Being a parent one should understand that children at this age go through emotional turmoil; whom to listen: friends or parents? What is right? and What is wrong? Let them decide some things themselves. There are body changes, peer pressure and a desire to be more independent in children. At times they start answering back and then starts a bitter relationship between parents And children.

Don't get into arguments, it do not help in any way. Give some time; probably a few hours or a day and then talk it out not shout it out.

This is the time when children need positive family environment.

It could be fun activities, open parent child communication wherein both should hear either persons views.

Parents should be appreciative of their kids extracurricular activities and should encourage them to participate in group activities.

It is important for the parent to stay calm when the child is misbehaving with his friends.

Always have a one to one talk and make him understand where he is wrong. 

Don't correct him in a group.

Use humour and lighten the tone of the conversation.

Ignore certain expression of your child .

Balanced Diet For Children

It is essential for us to teach our children about TASTY food and HEALTHY food.

#CHILDREN need to eat PROTEINS, CARBS , FATS, VITAMINS, MINERALS, EVERY DAY.

Chips, #burgers #pizzas, cold drinks only satisfy our taste buds and should be eaten once a week. 

These provide superficial energy burst and very soon kids  start feeling hungry again.

Proteins help the kids to grow so it is very important that every meal of theirs should have some #protein like milk, curd, dal, roasted nuts, eggs, fish, chicken, coconut etc.

Minerals are very important for proper growth of bones, teeth and cartilages.

"Fruits give us minerals and vitamins and keep diseases at bay".

Vitamins  help us in #building #immunity of our kids. 

So it is a must for children to have 3-4 fruits a day. 

"Fruits give us minerals and #vitamins and keep diseases at bay".

Health Problems of Infants

CALCIUM DEFICIENCY

Calcium deficiency in new born babies,in older infants and preschool children is in association with Vitamin D deficiency. Calcarea Phoshoricum is a great boon for such children.

Symptoms

• Irritability
• Jitteriness
• Pain in lower legs.
• Baby finds comfort on massaging his legs.
• White patches are formed on cheeks, forehead, or arms.

Suggestions:

• Pregnant and lactating mothers must have adequate amount of calcium and Vitamin D in their diets to prevent problems associated with calcium deficiency. 
• Artificially fed children are more prone to develop calcium deficiency. The high phosphate content of non-human milk depresses the level of calcium in the blood. 

Medicines in Homeopathy
Calc. fluor., Calc. carb., Calc. phos.

Though rare in breastfed infants, calcium deficiency can occur in such infants whose mothers are deficient in calcium and Vitamin D. 

PREVENTION: Exposure of infants and mothers to adequate sunlight can help in prevention of this condition.

TEETHING

Teething can start at any time between 3 month to 12 months of age. 

Teething symptoms

• Drooling baby
• Babies may refuse to eat or drink.
• Irritability
• A tooth visible below the gum
• Swollen, bulging gums
• Trying to bite, chew, and suck on everything she can get her hands on
• Rubbing her face
• Difficulty in sleeping
• Grabbing her ears
• Waking more at night and generally being more unsettled.

Suggestion

• Gently rubbing over the affected gum with your clean finger may ease the pain. 
• Many children find that biting on a clean and cool object is soothing (for example, a chilled teething ring).
• Chewing on chilled fruit or vegetables may help. 
• Carrots and cucumbers are excellent soothers.

Homeopathic Medicines for Teething

Podophyllum, Belladonna, Calcarea phosphorica, Caffeinum. 

EAR INFECTION

Watch and wait if you notice fussiness, fever, trouble sleeping, or pulling at the ear that lasts for one to three days following congestion or an upper respiratory infection.

Visit the doc if these symptoms last for more than three days or if baby seems to be in severe pain and younger than 6 months. Doctors prefer to let baby's immune system fight an ear infection at first, but antibiotics may be in order if he isn't better after three days.

Homeopathic Medicines  for Ear Infection
Belladonna, Ferrum phos, Hepar sulph., Pulsatilla..

STOMACH VIRUS

Visit the doctor if vomiting or fever lasts more than two days, if baby doesn't want to drink, if she goes for six hours or more without urinating, or if there's blood in her stool. Your baby might have a serious infection such as salmonella or E. coli, which may require treatment with an antibiotic.

What Temperature Indicates That Baby Needs to See a Doctor?

"Fever and the symptoms that accompany it, such as congestion or vomiting, are your baby's way of fighting infection, "Babies tolerate high fever -- 104 degrees plus -- a lot better than we do, and duration is usually a much better indicator of illness than how high it is."

Its Time To see Doctor if the fever lasts more than a day, if other symptoms interfere with baby's ability to get rest and eat well, or if your parental instinct tells you something is wrong. If your baby is younger than 2 months and comes down with a fever, you'll need to take it more seriously and get him checked out immediately -- with newborns, it's much trickier to figure out which infections might be brewing.

Homeopathic Medicines for Fever
Aconite napellus,  Belladonna,  Ferrum phosphoricum

Health Problems in New Born's, Part - I

If you're a new mom, you'll likely have moments of panic about your baby's health. Your child's health is important. Learn about common allergies, cold and flu; how to treat a fever; ear infections; rashes; sore throats, stomach aches, and more.

Common Health problems in new born are:

BRONCHITIS

Bronchitis most commonly affects babies and young children under a year old. Most cases are mild and improve without specific treatment within about two weeks, although some children have severe symptoms and need treatment in hospital. Bronchitis is an infection or inflammation of the large air passages to the lungs. (These airways are called bronchi.) When your child has a cold, sore throat, flu, or sinus infection, the virus that caused it can spread to the bronchi. Once the germs take hold there, the airways become swollen, inflamed, and partly blocked with mucus.

Symptoms:

• Cold symptoms
• Runny nose 
• Nose blocked
• Difficulty in feeding.
• Breathing through mouth.
• Slight fever (100 to 101 degrees Fahrenheit) 
• Crankiness.

Suggestion

• Avoid giving antibiotics to babies as it reduces the babies immunity and the child keeps falling sick more often. Try Homeopathy instead.

Homeopathic Medicines:
Homeopathy provides good treatment for bronchitis and patients can be easily treated in 4-6 days. Common medicines for this are Aconite Nap, Bryonia, Phosphorus, Antim Tart etc but these should be given after consultation with the doctor because symptoms vary from each child to child.

COLIC

Colic is the term used to describe uncontrollable crying in an otherwise healthy baby. If your baby is younger than 5 months old and cries for more than three hours in a row day or three or more days a week for at least three weeks, he's considered colicky.

Symptoms

• Cry is loud, continuous and irritating.
• The baby's face often gets flushed or red. 
• The belly is sometimes distended or prominent 
• The legs alternating between flexed and extended straight out
• The feet are often cold and the hands clenched.

Begins at age of 2-3 weeks

on peak at the age of two months.

Subsides by age of 3-4 months.

There are factors that may worsen the colic symptoms:

• Overfeeding in an attempt to lessen the crying.
• Feeding certain foods, especially those with high sugar content (for example, undiluted juices), may increase the amount of gas in the intestine and worsen the situation.
• The presence of excessive anger, anxiety, fear, or excitement in the household.

Suggestion for relieving colic babies:

• Sit on the chair and hold the baby with his face down and place hi nob your thighs with his face looking at the ground. Put slight pressure with your knees on his chest. With your hands, rub the back of the chest - motion of the hand being from center of the back towards the head.This causes the air inside to move towards the mouth and escape.
• Do not Overfeed. Stick to regular schedule and timing.
• Breastfeeding mothers should avoid too many milk products, caffeine, onions, cabbage, beans, broccoli, and other gas-producing, irritating foods.
• Avoid juices (young infants should not be drinking juice anyway).
• In the formula-fed baby, try changing to a formula containing whey hydrolysate (such as Good Start) or try a low-allergy formula (such as Nutramigen, Alimentum, or Pregestimil).
• Try walking the baby in a front-pouch-style carrier with his legs drawn up and pressure off of his belly.

Homeopathic Medicines

Homoeopathic medicines that can relieve colic are Chamomilla, Mag Phos, Plumbum Met and others but should be only given with consultation with the doctor.

Who Are We??

We are all a part of the Divine Light, the vital force, energy, whatever you might call that is within all of us that makes life possible. We come from one life, and if the lessons are learnt and completed we move on to another dimension.

We Must Understand

We must fully understand that a lesson has to be learnt from all sides:

• To give as well as to take.
• To forgive as well as to be forgiven. 

Diamond in Us

We are like those unpolished diamonds which need to be cut and polished from all its faces. All of us possess the same Light / Energy / Power within us to shine like a 24 carat diamond. It is the job of the soul to clean each facet until the surface starts shining. Our task is to keep learning and become God like through knowledge.

Past Life Regression therapy helps us to understand a lot of nuances about ourselves, the way we react, the way we act and the way we live our lives.

A Lady Checking number of Car's

A lady came to me who, while history taking mentioned that she had a habit of checking car numbers every time she would be on the road.On doing the PLR(Past Life Regression)  she saw that in her previous life time she was hit by a car on the road and she noted that car number to tell her husband ( of the previous life time).Her husband came running and picked her up, but before she could tell him the car number, she passed away. So in this life time, she is still searching for that car.

We had done the PLR(Past Life Regression) for some relationship issues, but this also came into light and got treated. Now she has stopped checking on car numbers.
