From the day we came to earth and the day we will leave this place, Breath will be the first and last thing to have on this planet. This shows a crucial role of breathing in living beings. But with time we have forgotten the art of breathing. We have restrained ourselves with short breathing and this is why many health issues have shown a rise.

The word Pranayam has been derived from Prana- life force and Ayama- to lengthen. So, Pranayam is something which lengthens the life force. It is a simple technique of breathing which promote emotional, mental and physical well-being.

The reason behind getting diseases is blockage of Chakras. When a human do not use their lung's capacity to breath to the fullest, the body get less oxygen and thus it further create imbalances. God has sent us with all the sources, we will need while our tour on earth.

Breathing has many benefits. It balances the chakras, it prevents anxiety, depression, it cleanses, heal and strengthen our body. This is why Pranayam is practiced so that we reconnect ourselves with energy we were born with.

Bhastrika

It should always be done in the beginning of pranayam and must be followed with Kapalbhati. It should never be done full stomach and night. How to do it-

Sit in lotus pose and take a long breath, fill your lungs with air. Count till 5 and exhale. Now, practice inhaling and exhaling with force. You can practice it at least 21 times as a beginner.

Kapalbhati

This breathing practice brings your entire body into balance. Here's how to do it-

Sit comfortably with straight spine. Take a deep breath in and as you exhale, pull your stomach inside. Continue active exhalation and passive inhalation. Take 30 rapid breaths doing the same and then take a deep breath and exhale slowly. You can continue as long as you feel comfortable.

Anulom Vilom

Sit comfortably with straight spine. Now, put your right thumb to block your right nostril, inhale through your left nostril for 2 seconds. Now block both nostrils and hold your breath for 4 seconds. Keep your left nostril blocked and exhale from right nostril. Now inhale from right nostril for 2 sec and then block both nostrils for 4 sec and exhale from left nostril while blocking right nostril.

Repeat the cycle with 10 rounds.

Bhramari

It is also known as Bee Breath due to the exhalation sound produced while doing this pranayam which resembles humming sound of bee. How to do this-

Inhale while closing your ear canal with your thumbs and eyes with your fingers. Put your two fingers on closed eyes and index fingers on your forehead.

Now exhale while producing a humming sound (hmm). Do this as long as you can make this sound and then repeat the process 3 to 4 times more for effective results.

There are certain precautions that are to be taken care while doing pranayam for example, a pregnant women or b.p. patient should not hold breath longer etc. So, before you start, just figure out if you are in perfect state to follow that practice. You can also take your doctor's advise.

For a very long period of time introvert trait has been considered as something that needs to be cured. On contrary, extroversion as an ideal. In 2012 when Susan Cain's book 'Quiet' was published, it gave a new direction to the world who adored extroverts as well as insight to the introverts. There is lot of misunderstandings about the introverts which I want to clear out today.

Introverts are not Shy

It is a common myth that introverts are shy and extroverts are confident. Introverts are not shy, they just simply don't like to waste energy on topics that don't interest them. The chances can be like they love to listen more than to discuss. Research also says that even extroverts are shy but they somehow act well.

Introverts can Lead

People like Rosa Parks, Mahatma Gandhi, Albert Einstein, Tony Robbins, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Warren Buffett and many more personalities who are introverts and led the world successfully. Also, there is a study that say, introverts lead the group well as compared to extroverts as they put more focus on its people and quality of work.

Introverts love Talks

I know you are shocked to know this fact. But this is true. Introverts do love talks but only meaningful. They love to indulge in topics that interest them and thus, they go deep in talks for hours. But here is a caution, topic needs to interest them.

Introverts love to Travel

Being an introvert I can say that I love travelling. I love to explore new places. Introverts find peace when they wander. They would love to go to a place full of people but only for the sake of exploration. After a while, they will start to look for a quiet place. This does not end here as their need for exploring the world is everlasting.

Introverts can make friends easily

They say extroverts are popular and that's why they have a lot of friends. The same goes with introverts too. A study has shown that introverts make friend easily but they don't rush themselves. They take their time, observe and choose. They act very wisely while making friends. This is the reason why introverts tend to have longer relationships than extroverts who changes group often.

It has also been seen that introverts keep their group small so that they can give equal time to each relation and that's why people love them.

Introverts needs personal space

Introverts can do everything that extroverts do but the thing that makes them different is- they need SPACE. At the end of their busy day, they will crave for a quiet place where they can be themselves. They need space to charge themselves up for the next day. And when solitude does not become possible they get ill too.

Introverts know when to take stands

It has been a saying that those who cannot speak for themselves are weak. However, there's difference between “cannot speak" and "don't speak". Normally, introverts do not indulge themselves into fights. They consider arguments as wastage of time.

They know it very well when to reply and when not. But when the level of their patience reaches a limit, you better save yourself up as their next move can screw up your whole life.

Introverts are more Patient and Consistent

A study has proven that introverts are more patient and consistent while learning new skills as compared to extroverts who get excited easily and give up quickly too.

Introverts have gone through a lot of misconceptions. Now is the time that introverts need to know their power. They need to become aware that their true power lies within and with self reflection they can succeed easily. Today, the world is in need of more introverts as only introverts has got the eyes and power to see and shape the world into a more peaceful place.

We all have got the power to change our reality, and manifest what we want. We can do this by raising our vibration to match the vibration of what we wish to manifest.

Before going further we need to know the symptoms of low vibrations which stick us to resistance.

sleeping a lot
chronic illness (or constantly catching every cold that comes along)
insomnia
feeling the need to escape via drinking, drugs, TV etc.
feeling Stuck
feeling needy
Doing nothing
Random Change in mood

You can easily stop and reset the energy with the help of a targeted approach. There are some smart actions that you can take to turn low vibrations all around.

Ways to Raise your Vibrations

Know your environment

Be aware of people you are spending your precious time with and let go of all those people who do not serve you. The more you become aware of your surrounding and energy, you have the power to change them. As a result, you can change your reality and raise your vibration.

By allowing yourself to change the way you feel because of your past or anything will help you release the negativity and open up the gates of new ideas and thoughts.

Get Organized

If you have a clean space then you will be surrounded by positive energy which will help you to boost your energy automatically. On the contrary, if your space is not organized then your energy will be affected. Decluttering space helps not only to clear your space but also clear the negative energy that you no longer need. By clearing space you mean that you are ready for the new changes and opportunities.

And let me tell you a secret, the more your space is clear, more will be the flow of money entering in your surrounding. Cluttered space comes with negative energy which propels positive energy to enter in your space. So, why wait? Clear your space now and attract abundance.

Spend time in nature

Nature has got the healing properties. It not only tells you how to live but also how to change. You can try walking barefoot on grass or jog outside. By moving your body, our vibration start to move too.

Nature has a very high vibration. By spending time in nature, we become part of Earthing process. It allows our bodies to receive a charge of beneficial energy fast. When we are surrounded by nature, our ego starts to dissolve, our low frequencies start to dissipate, and hence we raise our vibration.

Appreciate More

Bring your inner child outside who used to be happy in every circumstance. Whether the thing was small or big, it used to appreciate all. With time we have forgot to appreciate the moments. We are so stuck in life that we need a holiday to spend some time with ourselves. Isn't it strange that we need appointment to meet ourselves?

You can spend your time with children as they are always in great mood. Energy of other people affect us so why not to choose the right people.

Journal

You can journal whenever you want. There are several types of journal that you can do for raising your vibrations. There are no rules to journaling. It is just done as you want it to be done.

By spending some time on paper, you will come to know about many things about yourself. You can also use journal prompts.

Journaling will help you knowing your strengths and it will guide you towards achieving high vibes. Trust me, you will get to know amazing things about yourself. Just give it a try.

Meditate

By spending 10 minutes in silence you charge yourself up with the new vibrations. It is well said that- all answers lies within silence you just need to hear that.

Sitting down and clearing thoughts with meditation is one of the most high-vibe practices we could cultivate.

There is no question which cannot be answered via Meditation

Dance

Dance uplifts your mood as when you are shaking your body you release the negative energy from your body and set yourself free. Also, music has got uplifting properties so choose your music wisely. Choose music that is inspiring, highly vibrating and mood uplifting.

Self Love

There is no love greater than self love. You cannot love any one else if you don't love yourself. This is what you should know at first only then you can set yourself free from the boundaries set up by the world. You are an abundant being, chasing for freedom. Go free and love yourself unconditionally.

By doing so you ultimately raise your vibrations. There are many ways to condition yourself with self love and the best way is your own (doing things you love).

So let go of all the old stories that you have been telling yourself from long. Set yourself on high vibes. These vibes will lead you to live an abundant life.

Your first hour in the morning decide your whole day. In a research it has been observed that in the first hour after waking up, the thoughts you have impacts your whole day. Whether you have a negative or a positive thought, it will shape your day accordingly.

So, why not to shape it in a way that we truly desire? I personally use affirmations to make my day more mindful and cheerful.

Smile

Right after waking up, I smile. No matter how late I am, how long I slept, what I missed, what happened yesterday etc. In the mornings there is no space for regrets. Every morning we are reborn, our cells regenerates so why to give them the same negative energy.

Instead, I like to feel grateful for the day that i have been granted to live more.

Intentions

I personally use affirmations as setting intentions in the morning and trust me it really do work. The words i use in the first hour in the morning, works like magic and they really come true. I usually like to say this day is going to be Abundant and the moment i say these affirmations, I start to feel good and I raise my vibes up. And hence my whole day become Abundant.

Affirmations

" I attract success and good fortunes."

" The universe is filled with endless opportunities for me."

" I attract only good things into my life."

" I am deserving of a life full of Luxury."

" I radiate love and happiness."

" I am deeply loved by the universe."

" I am a beautiful soul that radiates a vibrant and beautiful form. All is well in my body and mind."

" Life is fun and full of wonderful surprises and magic."

" I am a magnet to positive energy. I attract good people, divine opportunities and wild ideas towards me."

" Today is going to be a great day."

" I am amazing and incredibly best."

" I am grateful for the waterfall of amazing blessings in my life."

" My body is healthy and beautiful."

" Everything that I touch turns into success."

" I am ready to prosper beyond my wildest dreams."

" I have inner peace and confidence."
