🌱 100 days for soil - Day 53

is a global movement launched by Conscious Planet to reverse soil extinction by bringing together people from around the world and supporting the world’s governments to institute soil friendly policies towards increasing the organic content in cultivable soil. This is for us and our children to have a better future.

Why on - There is no nutritious food without rich soil. This is my effort to raise awareness about current state of our soil.

Join the movement: savesoil.org

Soil is not just a bunch of inanimate chemicals, soil is a living ecosystem that supports all life on the planet. If we have care and concern for future generations, we need to nurture and support this living soil. 💯days global movement to from extinction.

!! The magical season of growth, abundance, and life. The sun is bright, the air is fresh and the days are longer. Everyone seems to be in a good mood. It sure does put me in a good mood. Spring brings food bursting with ripe flavors and textures. Relish in these 8 spring foods this season and enjoy the flavors.

Seasonal food is the best food to ensure proper nutrient absorption. What grows in the season is what the body loves to consume. So don’t miss out on adding these foods to your diet.

This is 💯 true and many of us don’t realize this is how industries function.

For majority of food companies the intention behind creating a processed food is for people to get addicted to the product and buy it as much as possible.

That’s the reason there’s too much sugar and salt in processed food. There don’t even spare children’s food from it.

You’ll be surprised to see how much sugar is in children’s breakfast products offered by many brands.

It’s extremely important to read the list of ingredients before buying any product.

And when we suffer from chronic health conditions and approach a doctor what do we get? A pill. A pill for every problem. 💊

But we should be aware that medicines don’t heal. They just manage symptoms so these symptoms don’t bother us anymore.

Although a great saviour in emergency situations medication doesn’t help much in treating the underlying root cause of a health condition.

Why is a chronic condition caused in the first place? Why will our body’s go against us? Solely because we are not living right. We are not keeping the body happy.

So the only way to correct chronic conditions is making changes in the way we live. We have to live in a health promoting way not in a disease promoting way.

That is the only way to eliminate the root cause of 90% of chronic health conditions. By

✔️ Eating right food
✔️ Exercising regularly
✔️ Creating calm in the body through breath work, yoga and meditation
✔️ Getting proper rest/sleep
✔️ Exposing ourselves to the elements of nature. Sunlight, fresh air.

(1/2) Have you heard of seed cycling??

This is a hormone supporting practice. Women’s hormones are a complex endocrine system that functions in a delicate balance.

These hormones are greatly influenced by our diet, physical activity, sleep, stress levels, environmental toxins, and staying indoors for a very long time. This means that any of these factors can throw our hormones out of that delicate balance.

In turn, a slight hormone imbalance can become the underlying issue for a number of health concerns, including irregular periods, acne, PCOS, thyroid disorders, and chronic fatigue.

Seed cycling is one of the easiest ways to support hormones in a gentle way.

The first 14 days of your menstrual cycle makes up the follicular phase, while the following 14 days make up the luteal phase. When your hormone levels are balanced, estrogen rises during the first half of your cycle whereas progesterone levels rise (while estrogen levels slowly decline) during the second half of your cycle. An imbalance between estrogen and progesterone can contribute to PMS symptoms, acne, and irregular cycles.

Here’s how to follow seed cycling

Days 1-14 of your cycle (Menstruation to ovulation)

📌 1-2 tablespoons flax seeds
📌 1-2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds

Days 15-28 of your cycle (ovulation to menstruation)

📌 1-2 tablespoons sunflower seeds
📌 1-2 tablespoons sesame seeds

Stay tuned for the next post to find some creative ways to incorporate seed cycling into your routine. ✌️

If you are diagnosed with PCOS and finding it hard to lose weight then my upcoming event would be perfect for you. Starts end of this week! Registration link in Bio. See you there!!

Growing up I would often hear people telling other people “Be careful. Your dad has diabetes you might also get it or your Mum has BP you might also get it.” I would think to myself okay, that makes sense, since all the genes are passed down from the parents maybe the diseases are also passed down from the parents.

On the other I had also noticed that some people were completely healthy even though their parents were suffering from many chronic ailments. And that’s where my confusion began. Why is it that some people seem to be bothered by the same disease their parents had but other people had completely healthy and happy lives. This confusion was left in the back of my head until one of modules in covered the topic of Gene Expression. And just like that all my confusion was cleared.

could not be more truthful with the above quote 👆👆. Yes, it is definitely true that we may be more predisposed to certain illnesses because of our genes and it is helpful to be aware of our genetic predispositions. Our genes however are NOT the deciding factor. So what is the determining factor that dictates whether you get a particular disease or not? It’s our LIFESTYLE. It’s

🥗what we eat, how we eat
⛷how active we keep the body
😴how much quality sleep we get
💧How well hydrated we are

It’s all these factors that ultimately dictate and determine our health. Now you can rest well thinking that YOUR health is in YOUR hands. You are not doomed by your genes. The power is in your hands. 💪💥

So to take my power back..this week I decided to make home cooking a priority in my life 🧑‍🍳 What are some of the steps you are taking to improve your health this week??

☘ I am bursting with energy when my plate is filled with lots of vegetables 💫Although Indian meals are generally balanced, an adequate amount of vegetables is what is lacking in our usual

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝘃𝗲𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘀?

🥦 Vegetables are very less in calories and very high in nutrition. Increasing your vegetable intake is a great solution for people who want to lose weight.

🥕 Vegetables are a great source of Dietary Fibre too. Fibre makes us feel full and most importantly pulls out all the undigested nasty stuff from our GUT!

🫑 Vegetables contain which are the chemicals that give vegetables their color. Plants produce these chemicals to stay healthy but they are extremely beneficial to us too. We should include vegetables of all colours in our diet. 🌈

1️⃣𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗮 𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘂𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻
Whenever we are faced with stressful situations the biggest weapon we have with us is to change the way we look at a particular situation 💫. Let’s say for example your boss hates you. Instead of thinking “Oh my god! My boss hates me what do I do”. Say to yourself “Maybe my boss hates me but I am doing my best”. Or instead of “oh my god I have too many things to do how can I possibly do all that” say to yourself “I will do everything I possibly can”. Can you see how there is an immediate sense of relief when you change the way you look at a situation? Try it in any situation you face with! Just change the way you perceive stressful situations and enjoy the feeling of relief and empowerment.

2️⃣𝗣𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗽𝗵𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴
Sometimes the stress is too acute like a panic attack. Your heart is beating fast and you are sweating. In such situations we might not be able to think clearly. For those situations you can use a technique called “diaphragmatic breathing”. It’s too complicated for me explain it in the caption here. But google it and you’ll find great resources that teach you how to do it.

3️⃣ 𝗖𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗳𝗼𝗼𝗱𝘀 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗼𝗼
Some of my suggestions are:
✨Camomile Tea - very calming especially at night before going to bed
✨Chocolate - Dark chocolate is the best comfort food for me 😉
✨Yogurt - Very cooling and hence the calming benefits

4️⃣ 𝗗𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆!
I guess this is self-explanatory. Play some music and dance your worries away.

5️⃣ 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳-𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗿𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
Since we can’t avoid all the stressors we are exposed to on a daily basis it can a very beneficial practice to find ways to release all the stress that gets built up in us unknowingly. I sometimes feel I have a stress meter and when it hits 100 I jump on whoever is next to me. 🤣 So devote 10-15 mins a day to stress-reducing activities like yoga and meditation at least to protect other people. 🤣

Do you have any stress relief suggestions for me?
