This post and contents belong to mum, she gave me this drink in my last holidays and it was really good and continued to make it back in UK on weekends , basically it is my saturday alternative for evening tea if I am at home. With the hope of you will also try this I am sharing her recipe.

Please consider drinking carrot juice which gives the body Vitamin A, B Vitamins, Vitamin E and many minerals. It is  good for  prenatal health, eyesight, bones and teeth, liver and nails, skin and hair as well as helping in cancer prevention.

Carrot juice reduce the risks of many different types of cancer including skin and breast cancer. The cancer-fighting properties of carrot juice are often thought to be excellent due to the high amounts of beta carotene. Beta carotene changes to Vitamin A in the body.

Some Things You Can Do Monday to Friday

Typically my Monday to Friday is like this ------>

But this Friday after a long exhausted week of training's and work I have found some "me" time to understand the changes   in my life. Keep reading it is coming.

Yes it is Friday evening!! Time is 8:32 pm British Summer Time, lovely weather outside 15 degrees sun is still shinning I am on my way to home :)

Change 1:

If you are regular reader of my blog you must be knowing this. There is no change in my tea habit, tea addiction just increased with up to 8 a day. I think I start my day with a tea even before brushing, then many teas at work and one more before sleep. I know sugar is bad for health but I can't stop having tea so I have stopped adding sugar in tea now and started adding ginger if @ home. Try thinking of a habit in you which needs attention and find a solution. The only person who can change you is yourself.

Change 2:

I started working on my future, start day dreaming and interestingly I am writing it down as well.

Yes future in the sense,

What you want to do next year / next month?

Where do you want to go for holidays?

What to learn? Where should I live / Work in 5 years’ time etc..

My future dreams is in a small paper in my bed side this is first thing I see every day. Try identifying your dreams where ever you are and start small steps to achieve it. Always think lazy mind is devils workshop. If you are having time for gossip means you are losing the time you spend on yourself.

Change 3:

My plan was to get something off my flat. Due to sentimental values towards friends and others I keep many things in flat, which includes some electronics that didn’t work for more than two years, books, old notes, old clothes etc. I have found a recycle point nearby and cluttered many items. Here is the thumb rule, if you got dresses in your wardrobe that you have not used for in the last two years then I should say better give it to someone to use it or give to charity. There is no point in keeping it there for another some more years.

Change 4:

This is an action item for me and you.

1. Organize your next week.
2. Decide your grocery if you are the person who cooks and eats most of it. 
3. Treat yourself with surprises and little pampering. It can be an old movie or a visit to a place nearby you dreamed off.
4. Position computer table / study table  (See Image )

Finally be happy and contented for the reason you are still alive. Don’t lose the hope in you and strengthen the spirit living in you.

See you guys

As always do commend / email me

Take care have a nice weekend

Best Regards

Colours

It will come as no surprise to any young lady who has despaired over her husband’s choice of clothes truth is the sexes see colors differently. Research has shown that male and female brains process colors in slightly different ways.

Scientifically men struggle to distinguish subtle differences in shades of yellow, green and blue.The effect is very small but it might mean that choosing a shade of paint from the dozens on a color chart is a job best suited to a woman. The male sex hormone testosterone affects how it processes colors and makes sense of the information taken in by the eye.
