Are you eating to live or die?

Are you eating to live or die?

A lot of people are eating processed foods, junk food which can lead to several health problems

A few years ago I was also having the same habits, but I have changed myself and now I am complete vegan I prefer to eat a healthy plant-based diet. it is said that you are what you eat

Some of the benefits of eating a plant-based diet

Plant Based Diet

Organic foods, they help us to become our greatest version. also, we don't have to take animal-based products as it produces negativity in our body

plant based diet consists of god made food which grows up from the mother earth, also they are all alkaline in nature and when we consume alkaline foods our body automatically gets healed

Health is Wealth, a lot of people take this for granted, but if you don't take care of your body it will not take care of you

Your body is like your home place where you are staying so you need to keep it clean, provide proper nutrition through diet, exercise, take rest and in that way you become your greatest version living well and healthy

Vegetables and Fruits one must include every day they are full of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. ask yourself  Are you eating to live or die?

How to Live Healthily

One must focus on a balanced diet which includes the proper amount of Carbohydrates, Protein, and fats.

Drinking 8 to 10 glasses of water is mandatory because our body is 70% water.

Skipping Breakfast is also very bad for our health because the body needs nutrition after 8 to 10 hours of sleep and mostly all biological changes in our body occurs when we sleep

The sleep of 6 to 8 hours is mandatory for our health, that too sound sleep 

Good Quality Sound Sleep

 Avoid the use of Moblie phones during the night 1 hour before sleep and remember the blue light of the mobile phone is very dangerous for eyesight as well as sleep deprivation

For you to get good night sleep following are the requirements

1. Cave-like Darkness/ Minimum light
2. Dinner 2 hours before sleep
3. No Mobile Phone
4. Focus on breathing you will sleep automatically and with good quality too
5. Forget worries about tomorrow or the past.

Find methods to become stress-free such as Meditation, Walk-in Nature, Excercise, Yoga, Watching comedy videos, etc.

Research says 95% of diseases are due to stress so one must eliminate stress in their day to day life.

Fun is an important part of your life,

Spend time with family, and those who are elder and with kids this will help you to be happy.

What is Elevated Living

What is Elevated Living

A lot of millionaires we know today didn’t have an easy start. They started their journeys because they wanted to get something, they wanted to get money or fame. However, along the way, they realized that it’s not about the status or the money or the fame. They realized that success is about having an impact and making a positive change.

“The definition of “billionaire” should really be re-defined to “people who’ve made and continue making an impact on billions”. By impacting billions of people, by default, you become a billionaire.

Billionaires of the world

Elevated living is, therefore, a state of operation. It is about the way you operate with everything.

Elevated living is about how you can renunciation to serve a bigger cause than yourself. Whether it’s your money, time, energy, real renunciation is about how you can re-invest these things to do something more.

By doing this, by serving something bigger than ourselves, we gain elevated consciousness, and, in the end, it goes back to us too.

The 4 areas we need to have elevated living:

1. Intention Intention is the first seed we plant before any activity. It is the beginning.

Your intention must be elevated because by focussing on service, you’ll always have your “big break”. Turn your “I”s into “Them”.

But if your intention is focussed on society’s definition of success (money, fame, awards, etc.), you’ll never be satisfied. You’ll feel broken. And even if you do achieve this definition of success, you won’t feel satisfied.

It doesn’t matter how much or how little you have to offer, if your intention in the first place is to serve, you’ll give all of yourself.

2. Awareness Awareness is about knowing which environments devolve and which evolve your consciousness.

This is important because in order for your seed (intention) to really grow, you need to put it in an environment with enough sunlight, water, oxygen and nutrients. If the environment is too acidic or toxic, it’ll just die. “A negative mind will never lead to a positive life”.

To be aware is to be aware of your habits. What do you spend time on? Which spaces do you spend time in? (Spaces carry energy.) Who do you spend time with? (The memories you make with people will last a long time.)

3. Attention 70-80% of successful people have a mindful practice which they do consistently. We still live in our minds. By practicing mindfulness, we create a filtration system for our mind and consciousness. Not only are we calming and cleansing our minds, but we are also purifying and restoring balance.

Practicing Mindfulness Meditation

Some benefits of meditation (an excellent example of a mindful practice):

● increased capacity for empathy and compassion; decreased capacity for envy and competition

● enhanced REM sleep

● boost melatonin levels (happiness levels rise)

● deeper self-awareness

● better focus

● less tendency to burn out

● less tendency to stress out

Try to meditate 10-20 minutes per day. Slowly build it up.

 4. Action

Mahatma Gandhi once said “Happiness is when what you think, what you say and what you do are in harmony”.

We all need internal and external success. By having both, we can build a meaningful life for ourselves and have the most impact on others.

If we only have external success (money, fame, power, etc.) and this becomes volatile, then internally, our state becomes volatile too. But if we are internally satisfied and successful, then it will project outwards.

My main takeaway(s):

You really have to be aware of who you are, what you stand for and apply it to life (whether personal or professional) in order for you to know how to serve a higher purpose. And this must be reiterated, this must be a constant self-reminder.

Energy Management is Very Important

“We often learn how to make a living but we don't know how to make a life.”

 

Why is energy management important?

 

When you don’t manage your energy, your career and work suffers, you lose your focus, your family and friends get affected too. You then start to feel guilty and act differently. You start losing yourself. “We put time limits on what we love and we end up doing what we don’t love for all of time”.

How to manage your ENERGY for OPTIMUM PRODUCTIVITY (focus on 1 first then another and another but always have focus on 1)

Energy Centers in Our Body

Energy management

Think ENERGY first! Don’t split your time but rather, split your energy.

Know what brings you up and know what brings you down.

Some facts:

●     82% of businesses feel that they are not performing at ideal energy levels

●     When we feel too energetic, we eventually burn out.

Energy levels which are too low and too high are not ideal — strike a balance! You have to have momentum and moments of relaxation and slowing down (refueling).

How to refuel and recharge:

●     Schedule refuel and recharge time (e.g. weekly meditation classes, etc.)

●     Double the time you think you need to refuel – a tip: gravitate towards positive people and where they are

●     Write down what may happen if you don’t refuel (how will it affect different aspects of your life?)

“We are not machinery but inside, there is a machine.”

managing Negative energy

When a turtle is happy in its environment, it extends its limbs out of its shell as far as possible to soak up as much light as possible. When it’s under attack, it retracts its limbs into its shell to protect itself. Be that turtle.

If you had $86,400 and someone stole $400 from you, why would you spend your time and energy directing your focus on how it was stolen and who stole it when you still have $86,000? Same goes for the 86,400 seconds that are gifted to you everyday.

Negative energy can sap away your energy.

What if some of my friends or family members give out negative energy?

●     It’s okay to outgrow people who are not growing.

●     Those who change their progressive journey and last are those who change their circle (of people around them).

• (For family members) Spend time with them but preserve your energy.

Exclusive focus

To exclusively focus on a task or project is to pay FULL attention to it.

Your brain has two sides: the left and the right side.

The left side is stable, statistics, logistics, level-headed.

The right side is exploration, creativity, dynamics.

Switching from one task to another at any one time is like switching on one side of the brain and switching off the other. It’s like running from the city to the countryside and back again.

Your brain can’t process two things at one time at productive levels. If you have too many apps opened in your phone, everything slows down and the same thing happens in our brain.

Do one thing at a time with FULL attention each time.

Recognising the race you need to run

We are so used to having so many instant things in our lives now that we forget that “it’s a marathon, not a sprint”. We spend so much time harping on this that we sap away our energy unnecessarily.

Success cannot be delivered to your doorstep. It cannot be pre-ordered. You need to walk away as far as possible from your own door to open up more doors, to open up more opportunities.

PATIENCE for the BIG things, IMPATIENT for the small things — BIG things being writing a book, working on a project, etc; small things being writing an article, etc.

Going all in on you

Not the same as Exclusive focus.

Albert Einstein once said: “If you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing it is stupid”.

Don’t try to be a professional pretzel — to force yourself into a mold that you clearly don’t fit in. Don’t try to be somebody you’re not. You can bend and adapt or try new things but don’t force yourself to be someone you’re not. Don’t get distracted by what others want you to be.

Strike a balance between stepping out of your comfort zone and staying true to who you are.

Your pace

Everyone has different levels of energy. Everyone lives on different energy levels. They express their energy in different ways.

For Jay when he is with someone one-on-one, his energy level: full focus, attention, awareness, deep thought, deep compassion, deep meditation and prayer for and with the other person

For me when i am on stage, my energy level: hyped! Like whoa!

Recognize what “energy” means for you.

Everyone has their own pace. For example, Morgan Freeman became an actor when he was 52.

What “your pace” means:

●     Don’t strive for perfection, strive for progression. You need to be growing on a daily basis.

●     Trust your body. Listen to what it’s telling you. Refuel and recharge if you need to, then go out and give your energy productively.

Find your FLOW — the highest level of brain energy where skills meet challenge. For example, Jay’s skills are to share wisdom and his challenge is to reach out to so many people. When he finds the meeting point between these two, he is in FLOW, he is in his element.

How to Live Life Stress Free by Positive Academy

How to Live Life Stress Free by Positive Academy 

Why are we living stress free life? Stress is the major cause of  diseases as per the survey, how one can live stress free life?

When you are in nature, such as water, greenery, mountains, we feel so good and we instantly become stress free.

let me tell you story, few weeks before there were some marks on my car, so i went to the mechanic and he told me that it is running in an emergency mode, i asked why it is in an emergency mode? the mechanic told that because of some damage it is working but utilizing more energy with more power consumption, so try to fix this as soon as possible otherwise this car will be damage.

I thought of myself that when people goes in emergency mode, when they remain under stressful condition such that the body parts starts damaging.

Why people are under stress all the time? we know that 95% diseases which happens is due to stress (Psychologist Say)

Stress is very harmful for our life and health, so we need to get rid off that.

why this stress happens? because we want to achieve those goals which are not in our control and also not in out luck so we become stressful.

you know that lot of things are automatic. In survey from American University they told that you dont have 80% of life in your hands, you only have 20% of life which you can decide and think.

If 80% life is not in our control then why we are in 80% stressful condition? if you need to come in stress then take the stress for the things which is under your control that is 20%

80% is not in your control and if you dont believe this then lets take a challenge and try to stop the breathing which is automatic for 3 minutes or more by closing your nose, i am sure that you wont be able to do that after 1 minute only the body organs will force you to take breathe.

Meditation is the practice of observing breath

It means breathing is not in our control, we breathe in order to live life. To Breathe properly is to live properly.

Why we come in stressful condition, though lot of functions are automatically happening in our body?

Take Example of your body,

Our Human Body an Amazing Creation

1. your brain processes 400 billion bits of information in second, so much strong and powerful it is. Did you make it? Do we make run?

we just have 2000 bits of information we are aware more than we dont know

2. have you ever think of your heart? 2 gallon blood is pumped into our organs in one second and 100 gallon blood is pumped by heart into the vessels in one minute.

3. our heart beats 3 billion time in an average life span, you tell me which electricity do you have which you have attached and its working?

without any electricity, it is nature through which your heart is working, 3 billion times your blood is pumped into your vessels

4. do you know the length of your vessels? they are 60000 miles long.

our body is having 100 trillion cells and out of them 10 million cells are dead in one second and in one second 10 million new cells are made.

After sometime our whole body takes new shape, are you doing all this? do you know in your cell in one second 10000 chemical changes happens. do you do this?

if we are not doing this and it is not in our control then why we are in stress?

your life is 80% in control of nature, so please let go of your all troubles and forget them. all happening is good, end this stressful living because when we end stress we have destroyed 95% diseases and we can live life to the fullest.

See in this Water, Greenery and Mountains doesnt cost you anything and i am not spending anything but if we spend 15 minutes in nature then surely we can get rid of stress

I wish you have amazing stress-free life, live life well and we can do it

Good Bye

My Favourite Life Mantras

What is your idea of a life well-lived? Do you know the principles you wish to stay true to, the mantras you live your life by?

In an age when adages and sayings flow fast on all sides, when everyone is ready to shoot you with borrowed words and advice, I decided to think of the 10 maxims that have impacted my life, belief in which helps me along always. Here they are, not in any planned order…

     ♦ This too shall pass
I remember reading this as a child in a Reader’s Digest article. It had tremendous impact on me to realize that every problem, difficulty or grief ultimately passes away, whether or not you do anything about it. Even troubles have a shelf-life. This mantra has been a great comfort over the years.

     ♦ Everything is not about you
We are often unable to understand why others choose to hurt us. But we must understand that their decision may have been taken for other reasons unknown to us and they may have had no intention to hurt or cheat us. This makes forgiving and moving on easier. Had I understood and internalized this earlier, I could have saved myself a lot of heartburn over the years.

     ♦ This is done. Now, what next?
Never hang up your boots. Instead, soon as one goal you set yourself is over, set your sights on another one. This lesson I learnt from my father who at every achievement would say, “Yes good! Now, what next?” That would irritate me then, but would keep me hungry and striving for more.

     ♦ This is the time; this, the moment!
Whatever you put off for the ‘right time’ never gets done, because there is no right time other than the one right now — when the idea and the mood strike you. Do not put off the things that are important to you.

     ♦ Stay honest, no matter what!
Honesty is a shield that is tough to pierce. Take pride in being a person of integrity. Early on, create your own code of ethics and stay honest to your principles. Honesty is indeed the best policy! You will never be left with any regrets.

     ♦ Choose friends who make you happy, not stress you
There is enough stress in life without taking on friends who add to it. Choose friends who help lighten your day or help you feel better about yourself. That is what friendship is meant to be. Avoid people who are energy vampires or those who keep sharing their negativities.

     ♦ Kindness never went unnoticed or unpaid
Make it your mantra to treat everyone kindly and fairly. Helping others is the only way to help you on. All your kindness and large-heartedness will revisit you in some way or the other. Just believe it. If nothing, at least you live with a clear conscience and peace.

     ♦ Trust your instinct
You can have no better guide than your own instinct. It comes from a place of greater wisdom and the knowledge you have been imbibing all through life without even realizing. Quite often your best decisions are those you make instantly. When your whole being guides you towards a direction or a choice, go with it.

     ♦ Fulfill your potential
The only promise you must make yourself is to ensure that you fulfill the potential you are born with and the one you have honed in your growing up years. Do not fritter away life on inconsequential things. Make sure you have done your duty to yourself and so towards your existence – make the most of your own endowments. Understand your strengths and weaknesses. Use the former and guard against the latter.

     ♦ Stay balanced through highs and lows
Keep the idea of success in your sights when low, but also remember to keep the ground within your sights when at the top. That will ensure that you stay hopeful in the leaner period and do not forget to stay grounded and modest when at the top. One will always follow the other – good times and bad times. A life well lived is when you stay balanced through it all.
