BENEFITS OF EATING CHOCOLATES!

I love chocolates. I have to confess I am a chocoholic.Yesterday while I was watching Astro 703, Asian Food Channel, i saw the programme on 'Chef At Home'.I learned a lot of tips from his cooking styles.He often prepares chocolate desert recipes.It is really easy.Trust me the next time look out for his programmes, he shows how to prepare simple meals which are delicious yet healthy. How many of us actually take the trouble to prepare a simple desert as shown in AFC Channels. We often resort to box of chocolates bought from our local supermarkets.It is indeed much more healthier and economical if we are able to cook our own desert.We can also save up the rest of the deserts in the fridge to fulfill our temptations!

Chocolates are just too good for our brains. Here are some health tips on chocolates! Dark chocolates are full of antioxidant and it is also beneficial to heart patient because it reduces blood pressure and prevents blood clots.The chemicals in the chocolates that helps on one's cardiovascular system is known as 'catechins'.This substance found in chocolates are rich in antioxidant which protects our body against heart disease and may also in rare cases help to prevent cancer.

I always feel so relaxed after eating chocolates.It is really a comfort food for those wanting to relax after a hectic day.Why is this? Chocolates releases natural feel good chemicals called endorphins in our brain. This chemical are are able to release pain and it also aids to elevated one's mood.

Chocolate is also very popular among loved ones.We often buy chocolates for spouses, family members and loved ones.Some research indicates that the chocolates act as psycho-stimulant.

The other benefits of eating chocolates are that it defends our body against destructive molecules known as free radicals which cause heart attack and cancer.
It has been stated that in an experiment conducted in Japan proved that chocolates contains anti-bacterial elements that may assist to overcome food decay.Further studies also indicates that another substance called ‘phenols’ which is also found in chocolates may help reduce arteriosclerosis.This substance is also found in red wine, black tea, fruits and vegetables.

Chocolates also comprises of a lot of nutrients such as Vitamins A, B1, B2, D and E
which is essential for a healthy body!

IS FEAR CREATION OF THE MIND?

The word 'FEAR' has been dominating human mind for centuries. We are fearful of all kinds of things, some are afraid of height, water, darkness, spirit, death and others.How does one should face their fear?

When i was young, i remember my parents would say don't go there, the ghost will haunt you, or don't do that god will punish you. It seems strange this little words that our parents have been telling us has created a bigger fear rooted deep in our mind.

As the law of free will, one is allowed to create anything the mind can perceive as true and the mind will accept it even if in reality it is not true! All our negative thoughts and experiences creates our root fear.The mind is a very powerful element.We must be careful on what we are thinking. If we choose negative thoughts, it starts creating fear and then it leads to creation of disease. It takes alot of effort and will power for one to overcome their fear.

One way is to take the challenge to face the fear. For example if you are afraid of water, you should take the boat ride and tell your mind all is fine and that you will return safely to the shore.Another example would be if your are fear of failing the exam. If you are having a fear of failing, guess what you will fail! It has been proven scientifically that those who boldly face the fears and then realise it is only a wrongful creation of the mind, and then surrender that fear, he has succesfully removed that fear!

I have been blessed with good friends and angels who surround me all the times. One of my friends, introduced me to a healer who is able to remove your fear. I was amazed when i heard of the existence of such person. I immediately made an appointment to see him. I had mix feelings to see this person. I met the healer, his name is Hari and i was so touched with his unconditional love to human. He kept telling me becareful of what you are thinking, because that is what you are going to get. He even told me that our human mind is like a 'monkey mind', we are always full of unnecessary negative thoughts. He told me that every thought created new thought and as a result it would create the desired illness.

After the session with Hari, i went back home pondering about what Hari has told me.I kept playing back in mind what he was saying and then i decided to put my mind to test. So i told myself that my husband will call me within 20 minutes and so i kept thinking about it. And he did call me.Wow i thought to myself that was fast. And then i tried thinking of something good, i was thinking about my close friend who was at that time residing in overseas. I was thinking maybe she would send me a message on the phone and miraculously she did. My faith grew stronger day be day as I started thinking of bigger things in my life. I realise we are what we think!

I am so happy and blessed to have known how to conquer my fear. I am very grateful to have met Hari who has explained to me about Fear. Those who want to meet this miracle healer, you can visit his website at www.irah-healing.com.You can also purchase his book on IRAH'S Book Of Healing on how to remove your fear. The book prescribes how one can remove any illness by removing your fears. I have been practising his fear removal methodology for a long time and i have always succeeded in removing my fears! It is such a miracle book.Everyone must own this powerful healing book! You can used it at anytime, anywhere at any place.Its true!I am speaking based on my personal experiences!

How to protect our immune system?

I would like to share my knowledge on how to protect our immune system.One of the ways is of course exercising, eating healthy balanced meals, drinking 8 glasses of water.Now that it something you may hear from every day.But how many of us have thought about other beneficial things which is around us.

Holy basil also known as 'Tulasi in tamil', or 'Selasih in Malay' is healing plant.It is held in very high esteem in Ayurveda, the Indian Science of traditional healing. In actual fact, next to the lotus plant,this is the second most sacred herb of the Vedas(the ancient holy books) . It is often known as the herbs with many cures.

It is a very auspicious plant for indians. You can find this plant is planted in every traditional indian house. This herb has been researched and its benefits have been documented. Som of its benefits are that its efficacy as an immuno-stimulant, expectorant, anti-emetic, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic,stress adaptogen and mild blood purifier.

This 'tulasi' herb enhances the body's resistence to infections, reduces fevers and works as preventative measure during times of stress and convalescence.
The herb is believed to have the power to strengthen the immune system by stimulating white blood cells which will then fight agents of disease. Tulasi can help the body fight off the effects of viral, bacteria, algae and fungal infections.

One can also make juice from the herb.The tulasi juice is very helpful for those having cough and sore throats.The juice can also be externally applied on wounds.

Can we cure an incurable disease/condition?

My answer is yes. We can heal through our mind, though perfection of thoughts.
If a patient can think thoughts of perfect 'health' the disease will vanish!
Do you agree with me? I have seen many miracles in my life, when one focuses on good health, good thoughts, that energy creates a healing to that person.
If a person is suffering from mouth ulser but if continue to think it is painful and you talk about it to your wife and kids and friend, guess what you are actually inviting more unbearable ulsers. If you remember my earlier post i mentioned what we think most of the time that would be manifested!

In fact do u know why do we go through stress or worry because of that one NEGATIVE thought. When you keep adding salt and pepper to that one thought and then more thought comes untill a disease is manifested!We can change that negative thought with constant positive thoughts. Positive thoughts has the power to dissolve any negative thought no matter how small or big it is.

We have often hear about true stories on how someone survived a terribe tragedy? Have you pondered how ? It is a miracle but the more crucial answer is because of the
change of pattern in thinking. When there is a prolong thought of positive words, you can heal any disease.

I am sure every one of us have heard of the true story of the MIRACLE MEN which was featured in the DISCOVERY CHANNEL and OPRAH WINFREY SHOW that has been reported in history of the world.

This is the story about MORRIS GOODMAN. He crashed an airplane and ended up in the hospital completely paralysed.His spinal cord was crushed, and both first and second cervical vertebrae was broken. He could not eat or drink becaucse his diaphragm was destroyed, he couldn’t even breathe. All he could do was to blink his eyes.The doctors confirmed that he will be vegetable rest of his life. He did not listen to the doctors, he started thinking and visualizing he was a normal person again walking out of that hospital. He kept working wth his mind and thinking positive things that he is all well. He was hooked to a respirator and doctors said he will never ever breathe on his own. But he kept believing himself that he can breath on his own, he is all well. Finally he came out of it. The doctors were loss of words! He set his goal to walk out of the hospital on Christmas day and HE did! He walked out of the hospital on his own 2 feet on christmas day. As you read this story i am sure you could feel all your hairs standing up.It is indeed a TRUE STORY.There are many true stories of people who have cured incurable condition.



Remember “U are what u think about all the time”. Morris was know as ‘THE MIRACLE MAN” .He demonstrated the unfathomable power and unlimited potential of human mind!Evryting is possible! MORRIS’ story has inspired thousand of people to think, imagine and feel their way back to health.He turned the greatest challenge of his life into the greatest gift !All things are possible when u believe u can cure yourself!

Another true story, Norman Cousins has been diagnosed wth an incurable disease. The doctors told him that he had few months to live.Norman decided to heal himself.For 3 months all he did was watch funny movies and laugh, laugh, laugh.The disease left his body within three months and doctors were shocked and proclaimed his recovery a MIRACLE!

As he laughed Norman released all negativity and he released the disease. Yes 'Laughter really is the best medicine to heal our state of mind!'

Dr.Ben Johnson said in 'THE SECRET' book “We all come with a built in basic program .It is called “self –healing ”YOU get a wound, it grows back together.YOU get a bacterial infection, THE immune system comes and takes care of those bacteria and heals it up.The immune system is made to heal itself.”

The famous Bob Proctor says “Disease cannot live in a healthy emotional state.Your body is casting off millions of cells every second and it is also creating millions of new cells at d same time"


If our entire bodies are replaced within few years as science as proven, the how can it be that degeneration or illness remains in our bodies for years?An illness can only be held there by thought, by observation of the illness and by d attention given to the illness.


If every one of us can think thought of perfection, disease cannot sustain in our body. Illness cannot exist in a body that has harmonious thoughts. Imperfect thoughts are the cause of all humanity’s ills, including disease, poverty and unhappiness. When we think negative thoughts we are cutting ourselves off from our rightful heritage.


Let us all take charge of our body. We can cure any disease if we keep focusing on thoughts of perfect health!Let us heal within us and also everyone of us must heal the world!

What is our birthright?

Does anyone know what are their birth rights?

I believe that god wants each of one of us to be happy. He wants all of us to have power, prosperity, joy and happiness? But who makes the ultimate choice?
Its YOU and ME. We choose to be happy or sad despite the current situation we are in.It is our birthright to ask god what we want and we accept when we get it.The problem is most of us don't know what we want in life.

We need to analyse ourselves. Do you want to live in poverty? Do you want to be sad.You need to make a decision. No matter how bad it seem, every situation will change, as the famous quote says 'TIME HEALS EVERYTHING'

Let say we want to be successful? What do you do? We need to mould ourselves daily and say what must i do to be successful? What ever idea that you receive, analyse , trust and act upon it. Prosperity is our birthright? God never intended his devotee to be poor or sad. We need to ask what we want, it is our birthright to be happy and successful instead of thinking about failure all the time. if you think about failure again and again guess what you will get what you think.

We need to be focus on what we want. We have start a journal, write exactly what do want in this life, Do u want to be a successful doctor? a brilliant student? As u think about what you want, you will realize that the universe will give you incidents to support your thinking. Now the ball is in your court, it is whether you choose to act on it or disregard it ,,its all your choice? I am not saying if for example you are thinking of becoming the boss of the company and if you are currently just the officer, you should not bluntly leave your job and start up a new company. You need to plan step be step what actions must you take to reach your goal. As you write you will notice you will get pool full of ideas. But the ultimate rule is you need to keep thinking and visualising your goal as is it has happen.You need to play this in your mind frequently to attract the situation to be manifested in your life.

HEALTHY FOOD FOR HEALTHY MIND AND BODY!

I love food.Who does not? But more imporantly i am very picky about what i eat. I am very cautious about the chemicals that we consume daily in our food?Solution, i try to cook as healthy as i can. I avoid can or processed food. I try to add in herbs and spices in my daily cooking.

I would like to share simple tips that i do when I prepare my family's meal.Every morning my husband and i would drink fruit juice to remove toxic and excess elements from our body. The combination of fruits that I blend are green apple, celery, orange, beetroot,capsicum and cucumber. Alternative days i also drink black grapes juices as well as bittergourd which is good to remove excess sugar in our blood.

I also cook healthy food for my baby. My baby is 1 1/2 years old. Everyday when i prepare her porridge, i try to add some herbs in her meal. My mom told me that we should try to add spices and herbs so that the baby's body gets adjusted to different kind of foods. Everdyday i would add herbs like pennywort leaves also known as 'valarai' in tamil, joyweed leaves or 'ponangani' in tamil and holy basil 'tulasi' in my baby's porridge. I notice that my baby is very alert and her memory power is excellent.

I come from a conservative ceylonese background. Since when i was a toodler, good eating habits has been taught to me and my siblings.My late grandma was an avid reader on herbs and plants. She used to explain to us the importance of cooking different kind of vegetables as well benefits of spices and herbs. I have been also studying and experiencing the benefits of these herbs. This herbs has also numerous healing abilities and has the power to cure various disease. A lot of experiment is still being conducted on herbs and spices to cure incurable disease. One can also achieve to have a healthy mind free from worries and stress-free life when you consume these herbs and plants.How? These herbs have powerful elements that combines with the elements in our body and thus the chemical reaction heals the particular disease.

My siblings and i use to eat all these spices, vegetables and herbs when we were young and we now continue to introduce them to our children. We too enjoy eating these herbs.It is important for us to eat fresh healthy herbs, spices and vegetales to have a healthy mind. When i was doing my final professional degree, i used to consume lots of pennywort leaves which is also sold in the form of juices at our local indian grocery shops. I just hope everyone will also gain plenty of benefits from consuming these herbs.

My life experiences with my newborn baby..

I am proud mother of a one year old baby. I would like to share my experience as a new mother in this world.I work full time so i sent my baby to my parents house and normally fetch her in the evenings. I have this guilt haunting me all the time that i am not spending quality time with my baby? You may ask why the guilt? It is a norm for many working mothers who rush home to see their baby!But the real question is do we actually spend that time with our child. What i mean is many of us choose to sit in front of the tv while holding our child. I need to confess, yes I do this sometimes.But i always discipline myself, i only watch one movie with my baby and then i will spend time reading nursery books, picture books and animal kingdom.I have introduced book to my child since she was 6 months old baby. She loves reading. At times when i am watching my favourite movie, i would just put her near me and I would surround her with her baby books and she would open the book touching with her little cute fingers, feeling the texture of the page and she will try to run through the pages looking at the pictures.Its really cute watching them......

I also take her for a walk near the poolside as well as the playground.I could feel the happiness in her face when she looks at other children.Its really amazing. Children just love socialising! She loves water.she tries to pull me towards the pool and there she goes splashing and playing with the pool water.


I have also taught her many gestures and hand movements. She was very quick learner. She is able to learn and respond to you within a day..It is so much of joy to see your baby playing, laughing.................motherhood is god's greatest gift to me.Thank you god!

How to have more money?

Many of us suffer from financial problem whether it is recession or not MONEY is always thought as a problem. It's not bad or good. It just does its purpose. The main core problem is people perceive money as an evil.


All of us often see money as evil, no good but we still need it. We give so much negative energy to money, therefore it appears in our life as we see it, limited and scare.As the law says what your mind perceive is what you get.

Remove your fears about money and you'll see how money will come to you.

If you keep hating it, it will be very difficult to come. Remember if you keep thinking of a debt ,,you will attract more of the same issues.The best is have a open mind,always visualise you have abundance of money (even if you don't have) and just keep doing, guess what more money will pour into your life !Money would start working for you,you would be getting paid, you may suddenly get a part time job and etc.Remember the law of attraction says what you think of most of the time, you will manifest that.SO if you keep thinking that you have abundance, you will instantly attract more abundance.This is so true!I have personally experience drastic changes in my life when I start appreciating money and keep the positive thoughts of abundance in my mind!

Keep expressing gratitude for all the things that you have and are going to achieve.By doing this you are sending a powerful signal to the universe to give you more!You can also keep focusing that you are constantly receiving plenty of cash and cheques every week.Please don't worry about how you going to get this.The universe will go this for you,your job is to manifest and when you get right opportunity , you need to take actions.A simple illustration would be , if you keep thinking that you want abundance and within 3 weeks you get a call to do an assignment which will pay you about 300 dollars!Grab the opportunity and say thank you to God/Universe and you will be given more of such some situations!

Example: Keep saying Thank you GOD for settling all the bills;
Thank you GOD for this passion-filled job;
Thank you lord for the car;
Thank you god for giving me the money for my son’s education.

If a shirt costs RM1000, look at the shirt not the money. Thank the person who bought you and keep expressing gratitude,the universe will give you more.

Don't worry about how the money comes! By doing so, you putting a block. So have faith and practice the above.All you need to do is manifest your desire to have abundance and change your thought patterns that you are receiving unlimited amount of money....and your life will change immediately!

Mind

Mind

You become what you think about most of the time. And the most
important part of each day is what you think about at the beginning of
that day.

Start Your Day Right
Take 30 minutes each morning to sit quietly and to reflect on your
goals. You'll find when you read the biographies and autobiographies
of successful men and women that almost everyone of them began their
upward trajectory to success when they begin getting up early in the
morning and spending time with themselves.

Feed Your Mind With Positive Ideas
This is called the Golden Hour. The first hour sets the tone for the
day. The things that you do in the first hour prepare your mind and
set you up for the entire day. During the first thirty to sixty
minutes, take time to think and review your plans for the future.

Use Your Quiet Time Effectively
Here are four things that you can do during that quiet time in the
morning. Number one is to review your plans for accomplishing your
goals and change your plans if necessary.

Number two is think of better ways to accomplish your goals. As an
exercise, assume that the way you're going about it is totally wrong
and imagine going about it totally differently. What would you do
different from what you're doing right now?

Number three, reflect on the valuable lessons that you have learned
and are learning as you move toward your goals.
Practice Daily Visualization
Number four, calmly visualize your goal as a reality. Close your eyes,
relax, smile, and see your goal as though it were already a reality.
Rewrite your major goals everyday in the present tense. Rewrite them
as though they already existed. Write "I earn X dollars." "I have a
net worth of X." "I weigh a certain number of pounds." This exercise
of writing and rewriting your goals everyday is one of the most
powerful you will ever learn.

Fasten Your Seatbelt
Your life will start to take off at such a speed that you'll have to
put on your seatbelt. Remember, the starting point for achieving
financial success is the development of an attitude of unshakable
confidence in yourself and in your ability to reach your goals.
Everything we've talked about is a way of building up and developing
your belief system until you finally reach the point where you are
absolutely convinced that nothing can stop you from achieving what you
set out to achieve.

Everything Counts
No one starts out with this kind of an attitude, but you can develop
it using the law of accumulation. Everything counts. No efforts are
ever lost. Every extraordinary accomplishment in the result of
thousands of ordinary accomplishments that no one recognizes or
appreciates. The greatest challenge of all is for you to concentrate
your thinking single-mindedly on your goal and by the law of
attraction, you will, you must inevitably draw into your life the
people, circumstances and opportunities you need to achieve your
goals.

Become A Living Magnet
Once you've mastered yourself and your thinking, you will become
a living magnet for ideas and opportunities to become wealthy. It's
worked for me and for every successful person I know. It will work
for you if you'll begin today, now, this very minute, to think and talk
about your dreams and goals as though they were already a reality.
When you change your thinking, you will change your life. You will
put yourself firmly on the road to financial independence.

Action Exercises
Now, here are two things you can do every single day to keep your
mind focused on your financial goals:

First, get up every morning a little bit earlier and plan your day
in advance. Take some time to think about your goals and how
you can best achieve them. This sets the tone for the whole day.

Second, reflect on the valuable lessons you are learning each day as
you work toward your goals. Be prepared to correct your course and
adjust your actions. Be absolutely convinced that you are moving
rapidly toward your goals, no matter what happens temporarily on
the outside. Just hang in there!
