  • Ramadan Transformative Goals – How to transform yourself into a better version

    Assalamualaikum to all the readers !! We are in the holy month of Ramadan – the 9th month of islamic calender . Ramadan is the most awaited month for all believers of Islam . Though Ramadan is widely known for fasting observed by muslims . I would like to appeal to all fellow humanbeings to consider this month for life transformation . Because its a month full of opportunity to implement Ramadan transformative goals and you can transform yourselves into a better version of yourself

    To start with we know the significance of Quran reading in the month of ramadan . Its a act considered noble . So read and make others learn quran to understand message of quran

    You remember how allah describes Quran as ” Noorun ala Noor – Light upon light “

    Quran is as such a light of wisdom for those perceive it . 

    Do taraweah namaz , and other extra namaz to keep your body engaged in the heat of ramadan .

    Body cleansing happens during fasting as our internal organs are going through a different scientific mechanism in this month with fasting . Now the next part is do a spiritual cleansing of heart as well

    You know we all feel sometimes overburdened , hopeless etc .. but everything can be cleansed with quran and with the remembrance of allah .

    If you feel you have burden of worldly life which is more for you to handle then Remember to read Surah Inshirah ( alam nashrak surah) this will remind you that after a hardship there is a double assurance of ease from Allah . Read the surah Dhuha this surah will remind you that allah has never abandoned you and he will give you till your heart finds satisfaction . This surah certainly has a healing to remove all the stress and hopelessness one feel in their mind

    Then forgive people the way you want Allah to forgive yourself . Grudges should be washed away in Ramadan .

    Hatred never is pleasing in the eyes of Allah , so in case you hatred towards anyone just analyze if it is valid or not . If the hatred is valid forget them and leave the matter to the judgement of Allah . But in case you forgive them then do it with happy heart .

    Avoid all haram things , either it be a haram food , haram hobby , haram companionship or friendcircle that diverts you or even belittle your creator just say PEACE( Salam to them ) move miles away from such activity and company

    Ask forgiveness of Allah – best words as allah says about “there was a sect of people who used to say daily – RABBANA AAMANA FAGHFIRLANA WARHAMNA WA ANTA KHAIRUR RAAHIMEEN . So repeat this dua as you know allah never punishes one while they are seeking forgiveness .

     

    So make things easy for yourself with the remembrance of allah .

    Stay positive , stay healthy ,happy and may allah open the doors of sustenance to every halal seeker.

    • Artificial flavour on the teabags are really not safe for health .Your tea bags comes with different varieties like lemon , honey , cardamom flavour and so on.
    • Tea inside the tea bag is really not safe it has the pesticides aerially sprayed on it . Because the tea inside teabags are normally not washed well sometimes to say hardly washed before its put on the fancy tea bag.
    • Like now witnessed sometimes the content inside tea bag may have germs or insects like maggots . As we use it like dip and sip process we hardly realize the inner content of the tea bag.

  • Botox Safe or Risk – Must Know before Using Botox

    Botox Safe or Risk – Must Know before Using Botox

    One of the great bridge we all want to cross before doing anything in life is to know whether something we decides to do is really safe or so much risky. When it comes to anything related to skin & health we need to know the risk and cons in the process. Botox is one dermatological treatment trend that is hiking in its demand these days. So many people want to know Botox Safe or Risk .

    This curiosity is because Botox is a toxin so the confusion arises about the Pros and Cons of Botox Usage and the buzzing question Is it Botox really safe and What are the risks involved in Botox injection.

    If there is anyone who reading this wondering about what exactly is this Botox , in simple words i would like to explain it as the Magic Wrinkle Eraser .It is an dermatological injection to remove wrinkles in skin. Beyond this Botox also has many other medical uses .

    Botox Safe or Risk – Cross the Bridge by Knowing Things before Botox

    As everyone would have heard that Botox is a toxin but still how it is used for treatment . Before we answer Botox Safe or Risk , let’s know a bit more about Botox , exactly different types of Botox .

    Different Types of Botulinum Toxin 

    Not to wonder at all , because everything including human is of different types . So its nothing to astonish about different types of Botox.

    Seven different types of the Botulinum Toxin do exist namely from Type A, Type B , Type C to Type G Botulinum Toxin. But all these 7 types are not ideal for treating human diseases. Only the Botox is regarded as the commercial type of Botulinum toxin which is made by Allergan . Botox is from Type A of Botulinum Toxin .

    Can Botox cause Botulism 

    Botulism is mainly caused from neurotoxin but Botulism is a disease that can also be spread through food even . Everyone has a fear Can Botox leads to Botulism disease in people.

    This doubt arises with a fact that Botox is from Type A of Botulinum toxin which is actually a neurotoxin that is responsible for causing Botulism . If one gets affected by Botulism it leads to symptoms like weakness in muscles and breathing problems but it is normal to have this symptoms soon after a Botox injection but if it exist that may be a symptom of Botulism in You.

    Botulism eventually leads to Paralyses as the muscle weakness increases to paralyses the muscles completely.

    Will Botox Injection Leads to Paralysis 

    The neurotoxin Botox has the chance of causing paralyses due to Botulism disease .Generally Botox working or how Botox works is when you inject Botox to an area it flattens the area by weakening the muscles in the region . This way only Botox removes wrinkles . So in order to weaken the muscle Botox injection will spread to that region but if its travelling to other region in the body then the use of getting paralyzed is something everyone should think.But the researches conducted to check this found the experiment in mouse nerve where the flow of the Botox was there but to how much extend it will travel is not found yet . And also the case is not completely comparable to human being as the experiment is not tested medically on human being.

    Botox is safe to many extends as there are no much cases of Botox Paralyses reported in the history . Only very few cases with some other medical condition existence got affected by Botox side effect.

    So saying about a one line statement whether Botox Safe or Risk is not scientifically possible.

    Botox was used initially for treating excessive underarm sweat controlling , muscle spasm , eyelid tics problems then only it got FDA authority to be used as cosmetic drug .

    Botox Safe or Risk – Concluded 

    Botox Safe or Risk can be concluded only this way . The dosage limit matters about the safety and risk in using Botox. It is really safe to use Botox when it is used in accurate quantity on the correct place injected by a licensed medical professional who is expert in the process.

    So Guys if you would love to get wrinkle free skin you can try Botox as it is safe to most extend but still there is less percentage of cases reported with Botox risks suggesting its risky to go under Botox needle .

    • Avoiding Situations that can bring back the memory of traumatic event

    They avoid the situations that can bring back the memories of the traumatic event . Suppose one had survived from a rape attack at night on a road. They get so panic even when seeing a movie that shows a lonely street in night .As memories of that traumatic incident will start to haunt them.

    • Hopeless Feel

    They suddenly feel hopelessness about life , they lack future plans. The positive vibe or the enthusiasm in them will be lost . If you see anyone showing such tendency then make sure they are getting a proper counselling . If still the counselling is not working you may start to see a doctor to diagnose PTSD .

    • Negative Feels

    Whatever you do they still feel negative about everything . Suppose they lost someone in electric shock they will be having full of negative thoughts related to that.Negativity to situations , people and themselves will be one of the key PTSD symptoms.

    • Short term memory loss

    People with post traumatic stress disorder will slowly face memory issue . They will suddenly become forgetful as the stress inside them will slowly affect the brain cells. So short-term memory loss is a sign of PTSD.

    • Frightening dreams

    People with PTSD symptoms are having one common sort of symptom that is frightening dreams which makes them feel afraid to sleep . The frightening dreams that makes them wake up in mid night and panic around is a symptom of PTSD. But it is very normal if it is up-to a month after a bad incident in life .

    • Sleeplessness

    Not able to sleep properly , feeling insomniac is common PTSD symptoms that is found in most of the people . They are sleepless over days and nights. Lack of proper sleep is common among people with all degree of stress or anxiety .

    • Physical problems

    Sudden respiratory issues and nausea , tiredness or lazy mood is also a symptom of PTSD. If these sort of physical problems exists more than a month it is strictly advised t consult a doctor to figure out your health condition.

    • Feeling guilty

    The feeling of guilty can be a core reason in PTSD .One who survived from a traumatic incidence will always have a feel of why they survived it . They may start feeling guilt for surviving . PTSD patients generally have a mentality where they are hopeless and they have suicidal thoughts. So the worst part of PTSD symptom is to feel guilty.

    • Depressed state of mind

    Those people who had gone through worst life threatening incidents start to feel depressed. This will be followed with heavy weigh loss in those going through depression . This is not the sole sign of PTSD as depression can happen to any person at any stage of life.

    • Feeling high temper

    People with PTSD will get anger easily they tend to shout for even silly things . They would become destructive in nature . This form of anger will make them act worse thus increase their social alienation more in life.

    • Scary to move out

    They like to keep themselves locked its one of the PTSD symptoms that indicates they are scary to move out. They find themselves comfortable inside 4 walls this shows they are going to become self alienated soon. This happens mostly with people who had worst experience in life such as those who have seen someone’s unusual death , accidents , survivor of any tragedy .

    • Self harm and self destructive mentality

    They try to destroy them in the frustration of why they survived . It is mainly because of the guilt feeling that develops inside them unknowingly. They feel that they are not worthy enough to lead the life .

    • Nightmares

    You can hear some people say they are really afraid to fall asleep after a life threatening event . One reason is the scary nightmares that haunts them with the memories of the traumatic event.

    • Hallucination

    Hallucination is not the symptom to indicate you suffer from PTSD because hallucination is a symptom for many mental disorders in people including Parkinson’s disease ,schizophrenia etc. Suppose people who have been in wars and seen blood will tend to hallucinate blood in their hands , even they pretend to say they can smell something . If someone relates these hallucination to anything directly or indirectly which was associated with their any bitter experience in life then you should try to explore it. Because that can be sometimes a PTSD symptoms.

    • Distrust

    Some people who had survived from a bad relationship will have the general issue of trust when choosing the next partner. Not just this we all know in relationship starting to trust someone new is very tough for all of us. But when it comes to PTSD symptoms those who had a bad breakup will be mistrusting to believe in things. They always tend to live in an unreal and imaginable world they create around them.

    • Acute stress

    Stress level hikes in PTSD as people will find it difficult to cope up with stress . This stress really needs attention as this will destroy brain cells badly .Because PTSD symptoms never stand as single they will have multiple symptoms together thus every way the increased stress will affect the person’s brain cells.

    • Unwanted or suicidal thoughts

    Recently i happened to watch a video posted by a lady who lost her husband because of PTSD .She was unaware of the symptoms of PTSD which made her to now create awareness about this. She had a miscarriage which affected her husband badly which paved way for his suicide. Not only this case so many people who suffer from PTSD has the tendency to suicide as they are basically becoming hopeless about their life.

    • Headache

    Repeated headaches that just began after a worst incident in life and it exist even after a month then it is advised you should check with your doctor . Because sometimes it can be a PTSD symptoms but cannot assure that it must be a PTSD symptom. Even migraine can also trigger repeated headaches as people start missing the punctual time of food and change in their routine after a traumatic experience survival

    • Nervousness

    One of the early PTSD symptoms is to feel nervous about certain situation . Suppose a person who met with a car accident will feel nervous to drive again or to travel in-car. These sort of nervousness are generally found in people after a traumatic experience in life.

    These are the common symptoms that are found when a person has PTSD and it is advised to have an early look into this as PTSD is more than a normal anxiety disorder or an acute stress .

  • Love and relationship – Read Before you Breakup

    Love and relationship – Read Before you Breakup

    We literally say Love is like air,food,water etc etc.

    Hope you guys know that these days a breakup is very common and can’t even guess one would have crossed how many boyfriend or girlfriend in life. Relationship are getting worse for many matters and sometime a next relationship is like a nightmare to many people .

    Things to Know in Love before breakup

    The killing thought that prevents you from loving someone by giving them a second chance in life comes with a great question.

    “Am i his rebound girlfriend ???…..”

    “Am i her rebound boyfriend ???…..”

    Trust me people this is the worst question to deal in a relationship for anyone. The other person even if they try hard again and again they will get fed up of proving themselves .

    Now the second most root cause for breakup comes in the form of next set of questions . Huh, i should say this is more worse than the other .That devilish thing is a miscommunication .

    “You see it’s not working between us , we need to break up .”

    But why – “You don’t love me and i am fed up of loving you by putting great effort .”

    Hope many of the readers have come across this lines in different ways but all together the sum up meaning will be same.

    We will be fed up as you don’t understand what exactly the other person mean by the love and what kind of love they are looking for . Sometimes you will even go mad without a clue what more you have to make them understand you love them.

    Are you going to google on tips to impress . Go ahead i don’t say that it is not worth reading , it will give you many ideas on how to love your partner in different ways . But our topic is focused on why we breakup for these two major things .

    We need a change in our thoughts of love before we breakup and what is that is all we going to say.

    So from the first line with which which i began i would like to change your thoughts of love before breakup .I was thinking that all these elements – food , water ,air are something which is necessary for survival or whatever we call it as ‘existence’.

    Act of Purification and forget the form at first instance

    Can we think about using these three elements when its impure . Suppose say you need a glass of water you would choose for clean .So as if love is one such element then why not make it “PURE”. Instead of that what we are expecting is it should be pure when we get it . Here some controversy may come like love is always pure and the person we love is not necessarily pure always . If there is no person there is no love like if there is no body where the soul can reside to make you alive.

    Now here comes the confusion what the hell i mean by pure .Even i just want to specify that or else its gonna be misunderstood.

    Do you get everything in this first instance as pure ? Obviously NO.

    Take example you buy food items like veggies or fish or meat whatever you make sure you clean it . The process of purification – Why don’t we apply it on our love ? We are all not saints or holy men we may need to be purified even instead of kicking out in first instance as oh its with patches and dust may be even rusted .So take it to purification to love it as yours and forget its pre-form.

    This will solve your problem of whether it is a rebound relationship . You make sure you do your part and convey the other person that you are absolutely normal if the life that you going is live will be just yours. You can frankly say that what they were is all you want to ignore and make sure they don’t remind you about the past by comparisons .

    Serve the right kind of Love not the kind of love you like to feed yourself 

    Now secondly we all can’t love every kind of food or water or even when we change place the air can also be different . This creates dissatisfaction or even suffocation .Same happens in love. The kind of love you look for may be different and what you get may be different .This i would like to call as the problem of serving.

    Serve me with what i want not what you like to feed me . Ask me for what you want because i am not having the magic ball and wand to predict whats’s going on in that beautiful mind.

    Suppose you need time of the person but the person is interested in sending you tickets for your favorite shows . It won’t satisfy neither of you. Because he would think you didn’t appreciated his efforts while you would be disappointed that all he can do is to make me engaged on something so i don’t demand his time.

    So please try to rethink about love before you end a relationship . Because its worth to hold a relationship when it is all a matter of our thoughts to be changed.

  • How Step-Parents Cause Parental Alienation

    How Step-Parents Cause Parental Alienation

    Toddlers and preschoolers might form strong attachments to an involved Step-Parents .Even in the best of situations, families go through a major transition when a new step-parent enters the picture.

    How Step-Parents Cause Parental Alienation

    Without a concentrated effort to maintain a healthy relationship between children and both of their biological parents, a step-parent might cause feelings of parental alienation between children and their non-custodial parent. This is especially true when a child is too young to have formed long-term memories with a biological parent. A mother might unintentionally turn her children against their father by making sarcastic comments about him to her new spouse or praising her new spouse for doing things better or differently than her ex. A custodial father might remarry and the step-mother may begin to fill the role of a mother to his young children.

    Types of Parental Alienation 

    • Naive Alienators
    • Active Alienators
    • Obsessed Alienators

    These are the common type of alienation found .The way in which Step-Parents cause parental alienation is discussed here

    Reduced Contact with Biological Parent

    Even in the best situations, it is often difficult for a non-custodial parents to retain the same level of intimacy that they had when they lived in the house with their children. According to the American Psychological Association, children are likely to feel abandoned when contact with a biological parent is limited or sporadic. Once the custodial parent remarries, the new blended family might move further away from a non-custodial parent. Whereas before, the biological parent could possibly stop by to take his child to the playground, those imprompt parenting sessions may become less feasible. As children begin to see less of their biological parent and spend more time with a step-parent, they might begin to prefer spending time with this person.

    According to the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts, very young children in particular might begin to consider a step-parent the primary parent because they see her more often and are most comfortable with her.

    Comparisons

    Blended families may begin making their own traditions, such as going on a yearly vacation to a fun theme park or planning big birthday celebrations. If a mother remarries a man who is more financially stable than her children’s biological father, the kids might begin to compare their dad to the new man in their life and find that their dad’s living situation pales in comparison to that of their step-father. The biological parent may also struggle with comparing his or herself to the step-parents, and then stop coming around as much because he feels inadequate. Children will pick up on these unfair comparisons and may begin to feel alienated towards the less actively involved parent.

    Ignoring

    Small children might begin to feel drawn to a step-parents who is making a great effort to win over their approval and affections and start to ignore a less enthusiastic biological parent. To help integrate a step-parent into a family, an absent biological father might be ignored or never mentioned in daily conversation. According to PBS Parents, when blended families pretend a biological parent does not exist, stress and feelings of parental alienation may increase.

    Eavesdropping Ears

    Before a biological parent remarries, he or she might refrain from speaking poorly about an ex-spouse in front of the children. Once a step-parent enters the picture, the biological parent might enjoy the camaraderie of having someone to talk to about problems with the former partner. The parent and step-parent might not realize that children are listening or assume they are too young to understand. Instead of waiting until the children have gone to bed to vent about an angry encounter with the children’s father, a mother and step-father might start discussing the situation while they are cooking dinner. Even if the mother and step-parent do not believe the children are listening, they probably are, and they will begin to pick up on negative things being said about their biological parent. The American Psychological Association reports that young children might adopt those feelings about themselves over time and feel badly because of their biological connection with the other parent.

    Every parents have to be very conscious about the impact of parental alienation in children . Even in its severity it can take the form of Parental alienation syndrome where you have to need a medical help to solve the issue.

    You can try to reverse the parental alienation syndrome by loving them , treating them special , even though they don’t like the step parent in the initial you have to understand them and give time . As we all know “love” is always the best magic word to be used so don’t be a miser in using and showing love.
