LAUGHTER THERAPY IS POWERFUL ANTIDOTE FOR STRESS

Posted by yoga guru suneel singh on January 11, 2011 at 7:00am

LAUGHTER THERAPY IS POWERFUL ANTIDOTE FOR STRESSHave a hearty laugh at least two to three times a day, if you want to keep the doctor away. The more you laugh the longer you live. We mostly laugh at the foolish acts of others, but we must learn to laugh at ourselves. A humor is a universal language. It brings other people in and breaks down barriers. Best of all it is free and has no side effects. Finding humors in a situation and laughing freely with others can be a powerful antidote to stress.

Gurucharanam SaranamImpending Spiritual Transition of HumanityMukundan P.R.True globalization can happen only on the foundation of a global spiritual vision, a spiritual vision that does not balkanize spirituality. What we require today is a path of spiritual discovery that helps our transition into a higher plane of consciousness. Only standing upon the plateau of such a higher spiritual consciousness, the modalities for peace, value and progress could be evolved for a just global order. This a

Healing from Within

Posted by Preethi Kumar on January 6, 2011 at 7:55pm

Being sick with Flu this week has given me an opportunity to observe a lot of things going on within myself. Every time i close my eyes to rest or sleep, I see a blue planet calling to me, saying "Come.......Come....". Initially i resisted. Eventually I surrendered. A strange sense of peace descended on me when i let go and surrendered to the ministrations of the blue planet. I could feel the planet surround me like a big sea sponge and nurture and sustain me. My curiosity got the better of me a

MORE THAN MARTYRDOM

Posted by Teachings of Swami Sivananda on December 31, 2010 at 7:00pm

Victory over the mind is certainly victory over death. The inner war with the mind is more terrible and formidable than the outer war with weapons. The conquest of the mind is more difficult than con¬quest of the world through force of arms. Achieve this conquest and enjoy eternal bliss, everlasting peace and unalloyed felicity.
From "Daily Sayings" by Swami Sivananda (1987-1963). More Informations on Swami Sivananda: on the Website of Divine Life Society, Photographs of Swami Sivananda, German P
