ENERGY SYSTEM IN THE HUMAN BODY
Among the great and innovative things that God has bestowed upon us and on the rest of the living entities, is a unique energy system.

The human being's body, which is our main concern, is not only what we can see by the naked eye, but also an invisible system supplying the whole body with energy. Special cameras could study and take an image reflecting the status of the energy system in any living object.

The Almighty wisely created the energy system within the human beings' body, to protect the physical body from harmful (negative) universal energy surrounding it. The energy system supplies the whole body with energy, the essence of life.
The energy system in the human body consists of:
-AURA
-CHAKRAS
-MERIDIANS
                                                                         The AURA :

 
Aura is the electromagnetic field of energy that surrounds the human beings' bodies or any living entity. Aura is composed of many layers. Each layer has its own specific function that distinguishes it from the other layers.
Generally speaking, the importance of the aura lies in the fact that it protects the body and its cells from the negative universal energy surrounding us. It supplies the body with the positive energy and prevents the harmful (negative) energy to penetrate the body.
Also, the aura could be described as a fingerprint; no humanbeing's aura looks alike. Moreover, the aura’s colours, density and shape vary within the same person depending on his /her psychological mood. An Aura's shape differs from mood to mood, like happiness, sadness, relaxation and anger. It is more important to mention that the health status has its own obvious impact on a person’s aura.
Many equipment and cameras have been invented to capture images of an aura. Any ordinary person can see the aura with his/her naked eye by practicing certain and regular exercises.
It is noteworthy to say that the aura can explain the phenomenon of attraction or repulsion at first sight. We usually say that a person is amiable, attractive or unbearable without making their acquaintance. This is because we have two types of auras; attractive and repulsive. Upon meeting somebody, interference takes place between your aura and the other person's aura, then a kind of interaction between the vibrations in both of them take place, resulting in either repulsion or attraction between you and the other person.
                                                                      CHAKRAS:
Chakra means “wheel”. It is referred to as such because of its spiral movement. Chakra receives and radiates energy. It also moves and distributes energy to the whole body through the Meridians.
The human body has seven major chakras and twenty- two minor chakras distributed along the human body. The seven major chakras are stipulated as follows:
    • Root chakra
    • Sacral chakra
    • Solar plexus chakra
    • Heart chakra
    • Throat chakra
    • Brow chakra/(Third eye chakra)
    • Crown chakra
    Charkas act as a station to send and receive energy. The importance of those charkas lies in the fact that each chakra is connected with a major gland and a neutral network.

    If we have a look at the chakras locations, we will notice that they are located along the major endocrine glands that play an important role in the human body i.e. pituitary, pineal, thyroid, pancreas adrenal and prostate glands. It is important to say that even the chakras themselves are connected via a channel functioning as a supplying line to distribute energy all over the body. This channel extends from the first to the last chakra to ensure a good energy distribution to the area in need of energy.

     
    The chakra looks like a funnel, it is narrow at the bottom and wide at the top. Each chakra has got a color that varies in accordance to the energy vibration and its speed.

    Therefore, the divine innovation is clearly reflected on the choice of the chakras location, as the endocrine glands play an important role in the human body. The function and the development of those glands are very important to lead a healthy life, as the hormones that are secreted by those glands, determine the size of the human being's mental and emotional mood. Also those glands have control over our energy, activity, psychological security, and our biological process. Moreover, those glands have their impact on our actions, present conditions, body shape and mentality.

    Accordingly, the chakras play a major role in stimulating those glands and supplying them with energy and keeping them intact and active. For the reasons mentioned above, we realize how important Reiki is. When the healer stimulates the chakras he/she automatically stimulates the glands and restores the energy to ensure a good health to the rest of the body.

                                           THE MERIDIANS (ENERGY FLOW PATHWAYS :)

     
    Meridians are channels acting as a medium to transfer energy throughout the organs of the human body. They look like arteries and veins that transfers blood.
     
    Meridians extend from the head to foot, and they reach up to fourteen meridians. Each meridian has a certain name and they could be studied from "Energy Anatomy Science" perspective.

    Anatomy is not only exclusive to human body organs, it also includes energy. Besides, meridians are not only exclusive to the human being bodies, but also include mammals like cats, dogs, horse and so on.

    Health troubles start taking place upon the blockage of one of the meridians. A blocked meridian leads to the impedance of the energy flow within the organs connected with it. This is similar to an infarction or a clot befalling one of the arteries, what happens in the case of a meridian blockage is the same. Energy flow stops or gets weak depending on the degree of the blockage. This leads to an insufficient supply of energy to the organ, causing health problems pertaining to all organs connected to the blocked meridians.

Weight Loss Exercise Tips For Endomorph Body Type

By: Daniel Clay

Body types are characteristically classified in different categories of which the endomorphic type is quite common. This type of body is characterized by its smoothness and round features; accumulated body fat especially in the lower parts of the body namely thighs, buttocks, hips and lower abdomen. People with endomorphic traits have a slow rate of metabolism and an inherent tendency to accumulate fat in and around the body. Owing to the slow metabolic rate of endomorphs, they lose weight slowly and find it difficult to stay lean once some extra weight is shed. They have to keep exercising , so that calories are burnt all the time and the scope of fat deposition is minimized.
For endomorphs, mere diet restriction would not produce the desired result. If weight loss is to be achieved, it is imperative that the body fat is burnt off directly from the fat cells through aerobic exercises. These exercises are not capable of burning fat as efficiently as the other vigorous exercises, so an endomorph body type is advised to work out on a regular basis.
To burn fat directly, aerobic exercise is the choice. During exercise, the heart rate increases. You have to set a target heart rate in consultation with your trainer and physician. Of the aerobic exercises, brisk walking, swimming and rowing are the standard ones. The effort that an individual can put into the exercise regimen varies from person to person. Some have more stamina than others.
Another type of exercise regimen comprises of doing push ups, squat thrusts, and chin ups. These exercises burn carbohydrates first. Since these exercises are done in a short time span, they do not help much in burning fat unless performed over a long duration. These exercises however, tone up the body and make the muscles firm. These exercises often termed as anaerobic exercises burn more calories in a given time than aerobic exercises. The difficulty with these exercises is that they may prove too strenuous to be sustained for long.
Weight training appears to be the best choice for achieving the twin objective of burning calories stored in carbohydrates and fat. If you can exercise with weights that are enough to burn mostly carbohydrates and tone up the muscles, then you will be benefitted in the long run. Furthermore, the process serves to increase the metabolism so that more fat can be burnt while at rest. The result is weight loss and a firmer body. You must employ a trainer to take lessons in weight training. It is only then that you can be assured of positive results.
Exercise may begin with squats, leg curls, bench press, pull down, and shoulder press, later on biceps and triceps exercises. There should be around twelve repetitions for each exercise and one has to exercise at least three days per week.
In conclusion it has to be mentioned that individuals with endomorphic body traits have to work very hard to shed weight. Their exercise regimen though not very vigorous has to be regular to achieve the weight loss goal.

Maida flour

Maida is a finely milled and refined flour of wheat, closely resembling cake flour, and used extensively in making Indian fast food and Indian bakery products such as pastries and bread[1]and sometimes in making traditional Indian breads such as paratha and naan. It is made from the endosperm (the starchy white part) of the grain, while the fibrous bran is removed in the mill. Originally yellowish in colour, maida is popular in a white texture bleached with Benzoyl Peroxide which is banned in the UK,[2] China,[3] and European Union[3].
Maida contains Alloxan, the source of which may be direct use as softener or the by-product of the bleaching agent Chlorine dioxide. Maida is often softened using Alloxan which is known to destroy beta cells in the pancreas of rodents and other species, causing Diabetes mellitus.[4][5][6]
The bleaching agent, Chlorine dioxide, used to bleach flour is reported to produce diabetes-causing contaminant alloxan when reacting with the proteins contained in flour.[7]
Studies show that alloxan, the chemical that makes white flour look "clean" and "beautiful," destroys the beta cells of the pancreas. [8]
Maida is also used in Central Asian and Southeast Asian cuisine.[9] Maida is used also as an adhesive [10] for wall posters in India.
Maida is finely milled flour and is usually refined using a fine mesh of 600 mesh per square inch. In south India where there are no wheat farms - flour from Tapioca is converted it into Maida, Rava,Vermicelli, Sabudhana/Javvarisi etc. This is generally cheaper than those made with wheat. Salem, Erode , Dharmapuri region is very famous for this industry called "Sago" manufacturing.[11]
Pastry flours available in United States may be used as a substitute for maida.[12]
Flour of whole wheat, which includes part of the brown outer layer known as bran, is often considered healthier than maida flour as it contains a higher level of dietary fibre (around 2-3g per 100g as opposed to 0.3g in maida flour).
