Oh 'EYE' see!!!

We seldom know the real worth of things unless they are under threat or are totally lost. This holds good for our health as well.I want to draw some attention to the very faculty with which you are paying attention at the moment- your eyes!

Eyes these days are under so much strain due to pollution, incomplete diet, extended exposure to computers and myriad other reasons.It true that we cannot completely avoid some of these factors due to the nature of work and lives that we have, but then its up to us to 'see' the point now, or realize when we cannot see at all, that is after we lose our eyes!

IT professionals with prolonged usage of computers are at maximum risk. We must take care to wash our eyes frequently with cold water. Every twenty minutesin front of the computer should be followed by mild eye exercises like palming, which involves rubbing our hands together to generate a little heat and cupping our eyes with our palm.

 Another effective exercise is to see far and near objects in a random fashion such that eye adjusts to see distant and closer objects. This can be done by focusing on different objects in the room, shifting your focus to one object after the other in quick succession. Yet another simple activity that is good for the eye is to sit back on a chair and look upward as far as you can, taking care not to strain our eyes. The same can be done sideways, downward and similarly in various directions.

Such small but effective exercises coupled with a healthy diet could go a long way in ensuring that our eyes stay healthy and beautiful.One must take care to avoid reading in moving vehicles, reading while lying down and reading in low light conditions which cause considerable strain to the eyes.

God's blessings are to be used with discretion.

Take care of yourselves. You owe it to yourself!!

Spend 10 Mins a day and change your look

In primary days skin care remains the last priority in men’s life. Shaving their face would be the closest thing to skin care that they would come too, however times have changed and gradually men started stepping to care their skin just to exhibit their elegance and smartness. Here in this article I will go over the fundamental skin care tips for men.

Taking good care of our skin plays a vital role in this prevailing tradition and most of the men have realized it. The skin is the outer most layers to defending their look for the future as well as the largest defense organ against outside microorganisms and diseases.

As per our age, our skin tends to lose the flexibility which leads to wrinkles, black marks etc.
Skin care for men does not take out hours from a day, but just a few minutes to go with. A simple antiseptic skin soap and cleanser is adequate. Just wash your face with warm water and rinse dry with cold water. This cold water therapy is necessary to close the pores after washing.

The daily weather can also cause harm to a man’s skin and this could be avoided by applying any sunscreen cream which should obligate SPF content above 15 before stepping outside.This could help us to stay away from wrinkles in the future as well as to fight against the skin cancer. And as said in the previous article our diet practices play an important role.

Gym Tips

There are tons of routines that you can use at the gym, and it all depends on what your goal is. Fitness magazines such as "Self" and "Shape" always have good routines that you can use. Or just go in with the goal of doing 30 minutes of cardio and then using the different strength machines to do a certain body part a day. For instance, Monday run/walk on treadmill for 30 min and then do another 20-30min of leg exercises. Then on Wednesday do another 30 min of cardio and then 20-30min of upper body exercises.

At the gym, you're probably going to do some combination of cardio and strength training. The cardio machines--elliptical and treadmill or pretty straightforward to use, as are the strength training machines. If you have any questions on how to use them, just ask one of the staff there.If you've never done weights or other things, definitely start by doing some research, find out how some of the machines and weights work, how to do the lifts, and how to operate the cardio equipment.

Don't be afraid to ask questions. If you cannot afford a trainer, try to find someone with experience - there's no substitute to having someone show you in person how to do the lifts.I suggest doing weights about three times a week starting out, doing the entire body (upper and lower), trying out the weights to see how hit feels to you, working on form. Go really light to make sure you're doing it right and to get the form down. Don't overdo it! For cardio, just take it easy and go slow at first.
ALL THE BEST
