Re: How often do you buy clothes for yourself?

I am not into impulsive buying. So, I will buy things only when I actually need it. The same goes with my clothes. More so I am into minimalist approach in the last few years and this is so satisfying. I don't buy clothes until I donate or discard some old ones and make space for the new ones. I buy...

It's actually the bacteria that start lacto fermenting the flesh as soon as the animal is killed and cut for the meat. The same Vitamin B12 can come to a vegetarian diet th...

Re: What are some creative ways to incorporate superfoods into everyday meals?

I have found creative ways to add these super foods to my plate. I take curd regularly for my afternoon lunch as a side dish. I would add chia seeds/ flaxseed to it. I would often add some roasted sesame seeds to my salad for that crunchiness. I often take roasted pumpkin and melon seeds for my mid ...

Yes, it does help. And like any other therapy, the effect might not be the same for every one. Each individual shows different degrees of reactions and results.

Re: What motivates you during bad mental health days?

I don't have depression as such. But yes, there are days when I feel low on energy and motivation. It's hard to push myself to do the bare minimum required. Listening to music, a long walk taking fresh air or watching a good entertaining movie lifts my mood. Socialising with close friends and family...

But I have never tried any screen video games. Played some long time back. Enjoyed candy crush, but it has...

Else it would have been even more chaotic. The good and evil, the heaven and hell etc are coined to make human stick to the hum...
