How to fix Vata Dosha or "Wind Imbalance" in your body

Image
According to Ayurveda or Indian Herbology, the typical symptoms of vata dosha or wind imbalance are as follows: External Dryness - Skin, hair, lips, etc. Internal Dryness - Bloat, gas, constipation, etc. Dryness of Mind - Restlessness, lack of focus, lethargy, procrastination, insomnia, etc. Dryness of Spirit - Too much craving for material gains, less inclination towards spirituality. If you are having too many of these symptoms at once, it almost certainly means that you're suffering from wind imbalance or vata dosha . Why does this happen? The most prevalent theory in Ayurveda is that that the Pancha Prana or the five essential areal pathways that sustain your bodily functions (like breathing, blood circulation, digestion, etc.) get aggravated due to things like bad diet (junk and fast food, irregular eating schedule, borewell water containing high magnesium, etc.) and bad lifestyle choices (irregular sleeping cycle, lack of exercising, undue stress, etc.) What

If you stay in a bore-well water area in India, there is a great chance that you're exposing yourself to unnecessary risk which comes with water hardness.

Entire industries like tourism and hotels have been torn asunder due to low demand, households in many countries have lost their source of income entirely and pushed into poverty and homelessness.

The art of finishing incomplete projects and tasks

The mind is an extremely lazy dude, it doesn't want to do the hard work. Instead, it "thinks" about the process of getting that task done and finishing it. And while imagining about finishing the task, it actually starts thinking that the job is already done!

I. Research your phone and model thoroughly before buying. One of the trickiest aspects of using an android phone is the process of choosing or shortlisting one before buying. Unlike the apple world where various iPhone and iPad models are shipped by just one seller, the android world is more like a flea-market where multiple sellers like Samsung, HTC, Xiaomi, etc. keep churning out numerous budget models one after another in hopes of making it big. As a user, you must be able to separate wheat from the chaff as its too easy to select the wrong model with known problems or a phone with older android version receiving fewer updates and getting stuck with it.

Digital life is way more complicated today than in the 1990s when even a hilarious password like "abc123" would have served the purpose of securing your digital access. But that's no longer the case today. Not only do we access way more websites and apps today but the digital environment has also become a lot more sinister.

How to perform time travel (in theory)

I know how hilarious it sounds given our present state of technology. And given the huge amount of science fiction novels and movies about time traveling, we always like to believe that traveling through time is a fantasy thing which can't really be accomplished by humans. And yet, humans once dreamed of flying chariots during the middle ages and those dreams actually came true centuries later in the form of aeroplanes.
