Feeling off color?

Many of us in IT or for that matter all working people tend to take a lot of tea or coffee. This leads to build up of a lot of poison into the system leading to headache, vomiting, loss of appetite, etc. A simple home remedy for this is to drink Ginger juice. Let me share with you the recipe for making fresh ginger juice at home. Take 50 gms of fresh ginger and try to shave off the skin. Cut it into small pieces and grind it along with water and required sugar say 1 - 2 tsp to get the Ginger juice. Strain the juice and allow the juice to stand for 5 mts. The heavy portion will settle down and you can take out only the lighter portion. Add lime juice (half lime is enough) and drink it fresh. This is best when taken on a empty stomach. But you can also take it before food. Allow at least half an hour to one hour before consuming food. This will help the digestive system to clean itself properly. This can be done in a regular basis say once a month. Wishing a healthy living with nature

Personalities

What can Indians Do? This question when posed a couple of decades ago would have got an reply with such disdain that we Indians are useless compared to foreigers, etc. But now INDIA as a brand has a high value in almost all walks of life and in almost all countries of the world. This time I am going to write about Indians (whom I know) making difference in their sphere of activities - One such personalities is Himanshu Palsule ... What a Person - A high flying, down to earth person, going places in his mutli billion dollar organization. I am so so proud of him. He has now been elevated as Executive Vice President and handles all the important products of Sage North America. And you should listen to his talk - spell bound audiences are always the norm. All his GM key note sessions are always jam packed. While a thorough professional, he has the Indian roots of taking care of his people with such affection and always trying to help others. Himanshu I am very proud that I have

Little known personalities

This is going to be a series of write up about people who are not very famous that their name will be instantly recognized, but in their own ways are Exceptionally good. One such person is Badri, who runs a printing press. He has migrated to Chennai from Dindigul. He was doing some printing jobs for our organization like visiting cards, one time greeting cards, etc. He wanted to have an appointment with Ramani, the Managing Director of the company as he had some ideas. Ramani is one great person who encourages everybody to experiment, innovate and succeed - whoever it may be. So promptly, Ramani asked him to come home on a sunday, if it is ok with Badri, since both of us can be party to the discussion. To our surprise Badri had analsyed all our printing materials and came up with the kind of non standards that have crept into the visiting cards, letter heads. He even said, in a very soft manner that Sir your visitor pass that is being given out is the first window to your organizatgion

Stomach Ache

Having brought up 2 children, there are a lot of home remedies that has been practiced by me, which I though I would like to share, for those, who can manage to find my blog. My mother in law is a treasure trove of such information. Let me get her help to write this series. Let me start from the common Stomach ache The main cause of it, many a times, when it cannot be explained rationally, is that is due to excessive Heat of the body . So what to do : 1. Soak a small quantity of fenugreek ( methi seeds in hindi - or vendiyum in tamil ) in curd for say half an hour or overnight if possible and take it on a empty stomach. This will bring down the body heat and hence wish away the stomach ache. 2. Apply few drops of Sesame oil or nalla ennai ( tamil ) on the naval and lie for some time. 3. Have a full glass of buttermilk( add a lot of water and make it thin) with salt. All these work very well during summer In earlier times, taking oil bath once a week was helping the body to cool a

Age Defying Personalities - Ms Rajalakshmi

It is going to be a Woman this time yes, I am going to talk about Ms Rajalakshmi, Director STPI Chennai What a personality!!! Working in an Government set up, bound by a lot of shackles called protocols, still has the courage to Dream big and execute the dreams with the help of others. Also, this office is a controlling body for the Software Industry, but by her sheer force, she has made it a developmental agency. I still cannot forget the day I had my first meeting with her in 1998 fag end. We had just started our Offshore Outsourcing for our US Client and I needed to get the invoices certified as export invoices. I had to search out this STP office, which was in Ekkakaduthangal at that time. Immediately, she started asking questions about myself and what I am doing, etc. Then itself a personal bond was established. I could see a person who was genuinely interested in the growth of people as well as the industry. Subsequently she suggested me to go for STP status. Till then I was thin

Age Defying Personalities - Vastu Sastri Raman

this is another person I admire most - Vastu Sastri Raman This is incidentally my father too. I admire him not because he is my father, but for all of the following : the kind of power, the energy level, the helping tendency, the fighting spirit Another of those who is past 70, currently he is 76, still with amassing energy. He travels a lot, but never feels tired after the travel, but bounces out with more energy. His vastu power is amassing. The kind of workable solutions he can provide - is simply great. Of course with Vastu you lose out some amount of aesthetics , but if what do you want most in life - health, wealth, happiness and peace of mind - if these could be got by adjusting here and there, why dont you do it. For me I believe in an All powerful Inherent power of the Almighty who is always trying to help us - so why we take the power to help ourselves to good things in life. If we do all things well - like hard work, smart work, combined positive energy of people to
