Support Your Immune System – yogic way?
What is The Immune System? The immune system is a complex network of cells, tissues and organs that defends the body against infection and disease. The main parts of the immune system include: white blood cells, antibodies, the complement system, the lymphatic system, the spleen, the thymus, and the bone marrow. The immune system keeps a record of every germ (microbe) it has ever defeated so it can recognise and destroy the same microbe quickly if it enters the body again.

Vichar: Thought Patterns
VICHAR Better intellectual health Vichar (Thought patterns) Disciplining our thoughts The great English Poet, John Milton, said that the mind in its own place can make heaven of hell or hell of a heaven. A funny story, is of a man who goes into the jungle, stands under a tree and wishes for some water to drink. Suddenly water is available. Then he thinks that this must be the mythological wish fulfilling tree. He tests the tree, and asks for some good food to eat. Immediately some food appears. Now he is very certain that he is under that great wish fulfilling tree. But then suddenly a new idea gets into his mind, “supposing a tiger was to come here?” immediately tiger appears. Then seeing the tiger he loses control of himself and fears, “supposing the tiger wants to eat me up?” And the tiger eats him up. This is the capacity of our mind and of our thoughts. If we can learn to handle our thoughts we can reach great heights. Developing a spectator attitude During our interaction with the world it is better we function like spectators in a play. We just watch and observe. We do not lose our balance and join the actor on the stage to help him. In this approach , we can see a way out of difficulties and probably resolve them. Some quite thinking and contemplation can help us to develop this approach. Sit in Vajrasana Quieten oneself. Recall the previous day’s events in sequence and with detachment. This over-view of things distances them and puts them into a fresh perspective. We thus learn to create a distance between ourselves and events. We can maintain a dairy.
