The very basics of yoga demand that practitioners slow down and coordinate their breathing patterns with moves that can range from gentle to deep stretches, twists, forward and backward bends as well as balancing postures. For the better part, many of these moves require intense concentration and focus. When the yogi is so deeply involved in maintaining the positions correctly and holding them for prolonged periods, the mind is naturally focused on the effort involved, with the result that everyday trivialities, worries and stresses are swept away and the yogi learns to attend to the moment instead.

There are various yoga positions that have been identified especially with relieving stress. These moves can comprise of a variety of seated postures like the Salutation Seal, the Easy Pose or the Child’s Pose. All postures focus on sitting in a relaxed position giving the yogi the opportunity to help quiet the mind, gently stretch the spine and relieve stress.

Likewise, certain standing positions like the Standing Forward Bend, the Triangle Pose and the Eagle Pose are also known to be stress busting moves in yoga. While the first two positions are adaptable for any level, the Eagle Pose is a standing position for advanced yogis that demands acute focus and balancing skills.

Just as seated and standing yoga poses can offer relaxing benefits to the yogi, so can some reclining postures. Of these some ideas include the Bridge Pose and the Corpse Pose both of which require the yogi to recline on their back. Another favorite de stressing move is the Legs up the Wall pose which is essentially an inversion where the yogi lies on their back with their legs propped up straight against the wall. Inverted moves like this help bring fresh blood to the brain by raising the legs higher than the torso and can induce the yogi into a state of keen relaxation and recovery.

All this effort involves not only pacifying the mind but also relaxing the body as well. This is also referred to as a state of meditation when the mind is completely stilled allowing the individual to filter out any stressors that may be bothering them. During meditation, the yogi can rejuvenate their mind which also allows them a fresh perspective on the upcoming day.

To experience a more meaningful meditative session, it is recommended that meditation is carried out in a surrounding that is comfortable, clean and quiet. Choose a time of the day that is free of distractions and other commitments, and wear comfortable clothing before sitting down to take a deep breath and relaxing.

Human body uses nutrients absorbed not only through food, but also through the skin. It is medically understood that what goes on your skin absorbs into your bloodstream and is carried through your body. We are all aware of benefits of eating healthy. But let’s not forget that skin is an organ which is alive, growing and changing every second of every day.

By choosing to organic with your skincare, you are choosing products whose ingredients work with the sophisticated natural systems of your skin. And given the right nutrients, your skin can care for and mend itself.

Let’s explore the beauty secrets of few of the very common spices we all use almost every day!

Cinnamon

Cinnamon might be unassuming but it delivers fantastically when it comes to speeding blood circulation which makes your skin breathe thereby removing acne. It's also packed with antioxidants — substances that fight skin damage. The beauty uses of cinnamon also include making a blush at home, and a foundation tint.

How:

Add cinnamon to a lip scrub or lip balm (if you are making it at home) and apply it on your lips. The spicy effect of cinnamon will push blood to your lips and hence give them a rosy and natural look.

Garlic Powder

Your hair follicle needs nutrients to produce thick, healthy hair. Often due to stress and insufficient nutrition, we face the problem of hair thinning. Since garlic has high amount of amino acid, it helps restore and re-energise hair follicles thereby giving you healthy and strong hair. The Vitamin C and strong sequence of disulfide in garlic further promotes hair growth.

How:

Garlic hair mask could be prepared by combining 1/4 tsp of garlic powder with 2 ounces of olive oil, heat the mixture for 30sec and massage scalp and rinse out after 20mins.

Ginger

Ginger Tea is best for sore throat, cold and cough but it’s a reservoir of beauty benefits too. One of the tips for glowing skin is ginger. When applied to face, it can give a great amount of shine, glow and natural radiance to your face and yet save you the cost of expensive creams and lotions.

How:

Apply the juice of fresh ginger piece on your face and let it stay on for 10mins. Initially, it might give you a feeling of slight irritation but over a period the burning sensation will lessen out.

Pepper

Pepper is a hot remedy to get clear skin (and there is no second meaning here). When you mix it with other ingredients and apply it on your skin, you are on your way to loosening skin pores and removing acne and blackheads. That is why pepper is so popular in getting blemish-free skin.

How:

Mix 1 tsp yogurt with 1 tbsp. black pepper and apply the mixture on your face. After a couple of minutes, rinse it off to see the desire results.

One can as well prepare a body warming scrub by mixing salt, pepper and olive oil to exfoliate dead skin.

Turmeric

Turmeric also known as haldi, has main ingredient-curcumin that has an instrumental role to play in fighting inflammation. With the benefits of turmeric, you can say goodbye to skin hazards such as acne, wrinkles, fine lines and instead get brightened skin tone. No wonder why, the Hindu marriage has a ceremony devoted to turmeric to impart beauty on the bride’s face. This is one of the homemade beauty tips for glowing skin.

How:

Turmeric with honey and mix it to make it a thick paste. Apply it on your skin and let it stay for 20 minutes.

Fennel

Fennel is a great anti-inflammatory spice and used for reducing skin sensitivity. Being antiseptic in nature, fennel seed is great for oily and acne prone skin types because it can remove the dirt and bacteria often causing oil buildup and breakouts. It contains vitamins A, C, and E, which is an awesome combination for dark spots and wrinkles.

How:

Crush fennel seeds and combine with boiling water to make a rinse that will help reduce dandruff and strengthen hair strands.

Blend 1tbs of fennel seeds, 2tbs of oatmeal. Add 1/4 cup of boiled water. Keep the mask on for 5 minutes and rinse well with lukewarm water.

Triphala is a Sanskrit term where “tri” means “three” and “phala” meaning “fruit”. The mixture is a combination of Amala berry (Emblica officinalis), Bibhitaki berry (Terminalia belerica) and Haritaki berry (Terminalia chebula) in recommended proportions.

Triphala Health Benefits

Triphala powder (churna) is a traditional Ayurvedic formula which has many healing properties. Here are a few of its benefits as explained on livestrong.com:

Gastrointestinal Motility

Triphala is believed to promote gastrointestinal motility. Doctors often prescribe prokinetic drugs to treat gastrointestinal conditions. In a study published in the "Journal of Postgraduate Medicine, “researchers found that triphala is equally effective in gastric emptying as prokinetic drugs without producing negative side effects.

Antibacterial Effects

Triphala is also believed to possess antibacterial properties. In a study published in the "Journal of Ethnopharmacology," researchers found evidence of antibacterial activity against various bacterial species associated with the development of gastritis, ulcers and stomach cancers.

Antioxidant And Antitumor Effects

Triphala is further believed to possess antioxidant and antitumor properties. One of its three constituent fruits, Amla, is the world's richest source of vitamin C. In a study of patients ingesting triphala published in the January 2001 issue of "Indian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology," the fruit led to improvements in lipoprotein serum profiles, including increased HDL, decreased LDL and lower total cholesterol levels. Researchers also isolated a number of tannins in Amla that may contribute to triphala's antioxidant properties. Amla fruit is further believed to extend life span for animals with tumors.

How To Use Triphala

Triphala is a herbal formula used to treat variety of health conditions by medical practitioners. It does carry risk of side effects in a few scenarios and hence it’s advised to consult a medical practitioner to learn about the recommended dosage. Some of the suggested ways as mentioned on draxe.com:

Health

Triphala is usually taken on an empty stomach. The powder can be used to make a tea by adding a half-teaspoon of powder to a cup of hot water. Stir well and wait for it to cool. You can also combine the powder with honey or ghee before a meal.

As a digestive tonic and laxative, triphala is best taken in the evening, about two hours after eating, and at least 30 minutes before bedtime.

Oral rinsing using triphala extract is believed to create a protective effect indicating a potential role in dental care.

Beauty

Triphala powder can also be applied topically to skin to speed up the healing of bruises and sunburns.

Triphala is traditionally used as a tonic in hair and eye washes.

Note: Before following any of the mentioned ways of usage of triphala kindly consult a medical practitioner to understand the correct dosage recommended for you.

Triphala Potential Side Effects

Triphala is an Ayurvedic medicine and it’s important to be aware of its possible side effects to avoid health complications. Few side effects as mentioned on healthwatchcenter.in:

Not Safe For Use During Pregnancy: Ayurvedic physicians refrain from prescribing this medicine to pregnant women. It is also proved to show toxic effects on the baby and can also induce miscarriage.

Diarrhea: Triphala being powerful cleansing agent is beneficial for people who suffer from chronic constipation but at the same time, it can have a deeper effect on people, especially if they have a sensitive intestinal lining.

Disrupted Sleep And Insomnia: This happens at the initial stage of consuming this mixture and the condition will slowly go away once the body gets used to the medicine.

Increase Blood Sugar Level: There are studies which show that the Indian Gooseberry which is present in this mixture can cause the elevation of blood sugar level.

Unwanted Weight Loss: Triphala's colon cleansing effect eliminates the toxins present in the body which causes loss of excessive fat. Hence if one has an average weight then kindly consult an Ayurvedic medical practitioner for correct dosage details.
