Deepak Chopra and Haritaki

Deepak Chopra recommends Haritaki

Haritaki is a major component of the health drink Zrii.

Expense Farley, Chopra Center And Zrii The establishment of the Chopra Center endorsing Zrii has an interesting story behind it. It definitely did not simply occur over night. Many individuals have tried to get the Chopra name on their health products in the past without any get. The reality that Zrii has the Chopra Center backing them is worth our attention … and Bill Farley is the male who brought it all together.

Costs Farley, President and CEO of Zrii, knows that liquid nutrition is the wave of the future. And Bill also understands that internet marketing is the real estate of the 21st century. Putting those 2 things together, Bill Farley started his quest of starting the next billion dollar brand name in the mlm industry with a liquid nutritional based item. Costs desired something unique, a first to market item, that had a medical value (not simply an unique fruit mixed with other juices).

That is where the Chopra center (a specialist in ayurveda) came into the picture. Expense just happens to be excellent pals with the Chopra Center as he has constantly enjoyed health and nutrition. It was the Chopra Center that led him to the discovery of the amalaki fruit and it was the Chopra Center that helped form a group of physicians to develop Zrii.

The Chopra Center informed Bill that amalaki is the best fruit of all which it is reasonably unusual in the West. The Chopra Center was so convinced of its value in nutrition that they were ready to be involved in backing the product as long as it past the test of intense scrutiny.

The Amalaki Fruit has its origination in older times. It is supposed to be the standard fruit that remedies several conditions and is supposed to be great for health in general. Filled with several nutrients, this fruit has actually stayed undervalued for many years because of lack of knowledge and know-how about the Amalaki.

Now, however, individuals are gradually becoming more aware of the advantages that Amalaki has to offer, those of vitalizing and revitalizing one’s system. Remember, Zrii is more than just amalaki. It is a combination of effective herbs and fruits such as haritaki which actually implies to “clean away illness”.

Thus was born Zrii, a product of tough work, effort and wisdom of the Chopra Center and Bill Farley. The Chopra Center, established by Drs. Deepak Chopra and David Simon, brought in the understanding about the Indian herb, and Bill brought in the monetary resources needed. The fact that Zrii has the Chopra Center backing them is worth our attention … and Bill Farley is the guy who brought it all together. It was the Chopra Center that led him to the discovery of the amalaki fruit and it was the Chopra Center that helped form a team of doctors to create Zrii.

Haritaki and Zrii

The Chopra Center told Bill that amalaki is the biggest fruit of all and that it is relatively unheard of in the West. Thus was born Zrii, a product of tough work, effort and knowledge of the Chopra Center and Bill Farley. The Chopra Center, established by Drs. Deepak Chopra and David Simon, brought in the knowledge about the Indian herb, and Bill brought in the monetary resources needed.

HARITAKI HELPS DOGS TOO!

A number of haritaki users have been writing to me about haritaki and dogs. Here is some  feedback from Lisa B.
I’ve been taking haritaki for about a month and have seen great results. I’ve been giving small amounts to my dogs too. One of them who is older has been very thin, getting lots of lipomas, and I was worried she had parasites. I started out giving her just diatomaceous earth for the parasites for about a month. Then I also added in the Haritaki powder. Within two days, she was expelling live worms in her poop. Sorry if that is TMI, but it’s proof for me how amazing the Haritaki is! Thank you!

Another writer, Louanne Tung, has this to say about Haritaki and dogs:

Also forcing my dog to take 1/4 tsp every night because she has a bladder infection and I find that I think it works better than the antibiotics. Because I started her on haritaki first and saw improvements right away then started her on the antibiotics a few days later when it was available. But then stopped the haritaki two days then and then I saw she went back to having pain while she urinated despite being on the antibiotics. So now doing both. 
So for those who want to give their dog haritaki this is what I do. Generally I mix about quarter of a teaspoon (she is 40 lbs) or so in with a few tablespoons of water then I brush her teeth with it! That forces her to swallow it. Or I will use an eyedropper of that same mix. Then she clenches her teeth but dogs have an opening behind the incisors for carrying prey. So I push the eyedropper in through that opening while holding open her lips on the side! And then I put eyedroppers of freshwater to chase it down and then give her a treat!
Thanks Louanne for this!

Haritaki helps decalcify the Pineal Gland

by

Haritaki and Decalcifying the Pineal Gland

Haritaki has been shown to help in the de-calcification of the pineal gland by removing mercury from the body.

There are many toxins that contribute to calcification of the pineal gland, and these include pesticides, fluoride, mercury, tap water, calcium, sugar, artificial sweeteners, caffeine, tobacco and alcohol.

We obviously want to stay away from this list as soon as possible to reduce the continuance of calcium build up.

To remove the calcium buildup that we already have so that the pineal gland is decalcified we can use Haritaki as one tool. The research on how to use Haritaki to remove the mercury is at this link here. this research was conducted by the well known doctor, Dr. Mercola. he came up with a few different protocols that are all listed in the link above.

How to use Haritaki to decalcify the pineal gland

To use Haritaki to decalcify the pineal gland plan on taking the Haritaki in  either the powder form or capsule form. Plan on taking large doses of the Haritaki, in the order of a teaspoon per day in the evening before bed and after food. You can also take the Haritaki in capsule form, plan on taking 3-6 capsules.

Other ways to decalcify the pineal gland

  1. Distilled water. Take lots of water to flush the system
  2. Beets and beet extract.
  3. Iodine is helpful in decalcifying
  4. Garlic is useful
  5. Vitamin K1 and K2
  6. Raw cocoa beans
  7. Citric Acid, in the form of raw lemon and water is useful

This is a very good article here: source:http://www.med-health.net/Pineal-Gland-Calcification.html

Causes of Pineal Gland Calcification

As noted above, calcification tends to become more severe with age, with many people experiencing symptoms of heavy calcification of the pineal gland by the time they are 17. This means that an MRI or other scan would show a large lump of calcium phosphate on the gland as well as other parts of the body.

This calcification process is caused by constant exposure to substances like fluoride which build up in the body over time. Toothpaste, public water systems, hormones, food additives, excess sugar and sweeteners in your diet or even regular exposure to cell phones has been linked to the phenomenon of calcifying the pineal gland.

 

Haritaki For Mouth Sores and Ulcers

by

Haritaki heals Mouth Sores and ulcers

Haritaki is proven to heal mouth sores in both testimonials and also in clinical studies. A very strong testimonial comes from Louanne Tung who lives in the Livermore area of California. She is a strong proponent of Haritaki having had so many great results  in a variety of health issues. She reports that she has helped a number of people with mouth sores and ulcers. The best way to use Haritaki to help with sores is to take the Haritaki as a powder and wet it in your mouth and then with your tongue apply it to the area with the sores or ulcers. Hold the Haritaki in that area for some minutes, typically 5 minutes and then you can swallow the Haritaki powder.

Mouth sores defined

Source:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mouth_ulcer

A mouth ulcer (also termed an oral ulcer, or a mucosal ulcer) is an ulcer that occurs on the mucous membrane of the oral cavity.[1] Mouth ulcers are very common, occurring in association with many diseases and by many different mechanisms, but usually there is no serious underlying cause.

The two most common causes of oral ulceration are local trauma (e.g. rubbing from a sharp edge on a broken filling) andaphthous stomatitis (“canker sores”), a condition characterized by recurrent formation of oral ulcers for largely unknown reasons. Mouth ulcers often cause pain and discomfort, and may alter the person’s choice of food while healing occurs (e.g. avoiding acidic or spicy foods and beverages).

They may form individually or multiple ulcers may appear at the same time (a “crop” of ulcers). Once formed, the ulcer may be maintained by inflammation and/or secondary infection. Rarely, a mouth ulcer that does not heal may be a sign of oral cancer.

The of study Haritaki, Terminalia chebula   and mouth sores is listed here:

Use of an aqueous extract of Terminalia chebula as an anticaries agent: a clinical study.

Carounanidy U, Satyanarayanan R, Velmurugan A.

Division of Conservative, Dentistry and Endodontics, Rajah Muthiah Dental College and Hospital, Annamalai University, Chidambaram, Tamilnadu – 608 002, India.

Plant-derived medicines have been a part of our traditional health care system, and the antimicrobial properties of plant-derived compounds are well documented. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of an aqueous extract of Terminalia chebula (a medicinal plant) on salivary samples and its potential for use as an anticaries agent in the form of mouthwash. A concentrated aqueous extract was prepared from the fruit of T. chebula . A mouth rinse of 10% concentration was prepared by diluting the extract in sterile distilled water. The efficacy of the mouth rinse was assessed by testing on 50 salivary samples. Salivary samples were collected from subjects assessed to be at high risk for caries. Salivary pH, buffering capacity, and microbial activity were assessed before rinsing, immediately after, and 10 min, 30 min, and 1 h after rinsing. There was an increase in the pH and buffering capacity and decrease in microbial count. An aqueous extract of T. chebula used as a mouth rinse seems to be an effective anticaries agent.

Increase Wealth with Yoga!

by
Yogic Wealth creation and asset managment
Yogic Wealth creation and asset management

Did you know that your yoga practice is also increasing your wealth?

We measure our material wealth in terms of assets and liabilities.

We want to increase our assets and reduce liabilities.

We do our taxes, and count our assets. We review the bank balance, manage funds and do an inventory of our belongings, even if they are just an old yoga mat that we look after.

We all know that the old yoga mat is a depreciating asset and our savings account is hopefully an appreciating asset.  We all love appreciating assets because they increase in value over time.

Our engagement of time can also be measured from the asset perspective.

When we spend our time, for instance, on personal beauty, it is like polishing the rusting Volkswagen. Whether polished or not, one day the wheel will fall off and the engine will blow. We are working with a depreciating asset.

If on the other hand, we spend our time increasing consciousness, we are creating an appreciating asset. To use the Volkswagen example, we are replacing the engine with a more efficient one. All the essential parts are being replaced so that the car may look like a Volkswagen but it now functions like a leading-edge Tesla!

What I particularly like about this way of looking at assets is that it takes our current understanding and values and turns them on their heads!

As a Yogi and Life coach, many of my clients are looking to build up their assets, but when they speak about assets they are speaking of financial assets. The above information turns this concept totally in its head.

When I researched the amount that people spend on beauty products in their life, it adds up to an average of $500,000 per person! This money is spent on a depreciating asset. Instead, if that money and time were to be invested in an exponentially appreciating asset, it would yield amazing results!

Other depreciating assets that are worthwhile noticing are foods that do not increase health. Not only do they cost money to buy, but they cost more money to fix the problems they are causing!  We get the high sugar diet fairly inexpensively, but we pay for it with all the illnesses, the ramifications of the illnesses, and the costs of recovery or remediation!

The appreciating asset of meditation can be contrasted with the decreasing asset of watching violent TV shows. The statistics on meditation indicate that every minute increases brain function, increases emotional resilience, and literally reduces violence in the area. What a lovely appreciating asset!

On the other hand, we can all see the effects of violent TV shows and violent words on society, and the obviousness of the deprecation of the societal asset of civility, compassion, and non-violence, all of which has a direct effect on the quality of our lives and our relationships.

The Yogic Way to Wealth

Here is an exercise for you:

  1. Write a list of the activities you do that create increasing assets for you. (Don’t forget to include yoga!)
  2. Write a list of the activities that you do that are in the depreciating-asset category.
  3. Review both lists and decide:
    1. Which activity, that increases my assets, if I do more of will give me a big return?
    2. What activity that decreases my assets, would be useful for me to do less of?
  4. Having made those decisions, plan on how to put them into practice on a daily basis.

Here is a link to my coaching services I can help you sort and stay focused on the appreciating assets of your life.

Yogi’s sleep their way to Union with the Divine

by
Happy sleeping baby doing yoga

Yes it is possible to Sleep your way to Union with the Divine!

And wake up a better yogi

Most people sleep 8 hours a day, or 1/3 of their life away, not knowing that this 1/3 of the life can be used to design the rest of your life!

We take it for granted that sleep takes place,  but we tend not use that time for anything more than getting some rest.

Instead we can use that time we are asleep to design our life.

In fact the time before we go to bed is critical to the way in which we sleep. If we have watched horror movies we may have nightmares.

If we are not having nightmares after watching a horror movie what are we likely to be doing? For me, most likely running the same pattern of energy as when I went to bed: on edge, fearful, ready to be scared, wondering what is around every corner. I then wake up tired and upset, and begin my day. What am I going to project into my day? Tiredness, and upsetness with life? Most likely.

What happens after some time of watching horror movies just before bed? We become more fearful about life itself.

Once we see the logic of this, then we can realize the importance of utilizing the last several hours before bed in ways that put us into the best frame of mind to enter into 8 hours of sleep.

Let us start then asking how do I want my day to be? If I answer full of joy, life and vitality lets at how I create that starting a couple of hours before bed.

I enjoy my evening doing things that generate joy, and avoiding activities that create fear and upset. For instance, evening news is not a good activity just before bed. Reading or watching some inspiring content is great.

To create more energy in the morning and sleep better dancing for 5-10 minutes sends you to bed with high oxygen in your system and a feeling if vitality that you also wake up with.

Finally, a great technique to apply just before bed is to fall in tune with the divine, cosmic consciousness, or whatever term you call the ultimate space. You can do this by setting the intention and also taking action!

Yogic Technique to fall into Union

You set intention by speaking out loud “Let the cosmos breath through me’.

You take action by breathing as though the cosmos is breathing through you.

Do this just as you go to sleep, say it 3-6 times as you drift off. Then wake up with a clarity and calmness that is cosmic.

Below is a great video about the power of sleep to improve the quality of your life.

Add more Joy to your Yoga!

by
Tips to Increase Joy in Yoga
Tips to Increase Joy in Yoga

Add more joy to your Yoga!

The whole purpose of yoga is to create “Union”, oneness with all. In this union we often find that our oneness is full of joy, bliss and love.

Is your yoga full of joy bliss and love?

If not, why not?

Sure, at the end of the yoga class you are almost certainly experiencing some aspect of oneness. Sometimes it may be that “out of it” feeling, other times intense peace, other times a feeling of dissolving into everything. There is a myriad of experiences available at the end of the practice.

But how about during the practice? Is your mind chattering about the pain, the to do list, desire to be even better? Are you caught in comparison with the next student who is doing yoga better than you?

Here are 2 techniques that bring “Union” into your yoga practice earlier than waiting for the Shivasana posture that heralds the end of the class.

  1. Keep bringing your focus back to the breath.

As you move your body into, through, and out of the poses, constantly bring your focus to the breath. This gives the mind something organic to place its attention on. The breath is changing constantly, a challenge that aids the mind in staying focused and out of boredom.

  1. Create Bliss in your Muscle Memory

Muscle memory is a fact! If you burn your a finger, that finger will remember the experience and protect itself by from heat in the future.

If you are thinking constantly about a stressful situation at work while doing yoga, this will get imprinted into your muscle memory and you will move away from yoga,  like your finger moves away from heat.

You can use muscle memory to your advantage. This technique was taught to me by the famous Indian yogi, Paramahamsa Nithyananda. He recommends that we consciously plan on breathing in bliss and breathing out bliss with every movement and yoga pose. He emphasizes that bliss is our very essence. By moving our body while invoking the experience of bliss, this becomes embedded into our muscle memory and the ultimate goal of yoga is achieved in each moment. Here is an example of how to do this:

  1. Breathe in bliss. As you breathe in, bring the awareness to the breath and breathe in bliss. Feel the bliss flowing through your whole body. Allow your whole body to resonate with that feeling and experience.
  2. Breathe out Bliss. On the out breath, visualize that you are breathing out bliss. Your breath is nothing but bliss.
  3. Each breath is bliss. With each breath and each movement, keep the focus totally in the in-and-out breathing of bliss. 
  4. Increase the Bliss. As you develop this feeling in your body, allow it to become stronger and stronger.
  5. Feel the bliss throughout your body. Now begin to feel that bliss flowing throughout your body.
  6. Increase that feeling. Your body will now be alive with joy and ecstasy in a very fiery way.
  7. Take that Bliss into your day. Now remember that feeling consciously at different times during the day.

Enjoy these techniques regularly and feel the union with “oneness” increasing and enveloping you more and more! Let me know what your experience is.

Yoga Postures and Impossible

by
breakthrough the impossible gently!
Yogic breakthroughs start when we drop the “Impossible” word

Yoga and Impossible

As a yoga teacher and student our mind has a huge effect on the yoga practice. We have a strong tendency to rule out our potential as humans by using the word impossible.

It is a common word among yoga students when they first encounter some of the advanced poses.

This is ultimately a self-fulfilling prophesy for many students.

Saying anything is IMPOSSIBLE creates limitation, and stops expansion. If as a child you dream of interstellar travel, but you are led to believe it is impossible, that dream will never manifest as a true potential for you. Interstellar travel will remain unexplored by you, because of the “impossible” residing within you.

The virus “impossible” is the dream killer, responsible for not trusting your heart and inner calling. But it doesn’t stop there, the negation of your dream remains in your subconscious, lurking as regret and disappointment in yourself.  

From where do all great inventions in the world come from? They come from a “blank” space, a space that communicates via intuition, flashes of knowingness, daydreams and in other unexpected ways. When asked about inventions such as the Apple computer, Steve Jobs professed that the idea just came to him. It is interesting to note that before the idea came about, Steve had spent substantial time as a spiritual seeker practicing zen buddhism and traveling in North India, searching for the solutions to the unanswered questions of science.

It is only from the blank space of unlimited possibility that inventors such as Steve Jobs have created some of the biggest companies in the world, with inventions that have transformed the lifestyle of humankind.

Einstein and Impossible

Einstein’s formula E=MC2 was revealed to him in a flash of intuition, a knowingness that was not based on scientific calculations or mathematical equations.  He just knew “It’s got to be so”. The formula was proven correct 20 years later, when technology was advanced enough to rigorously test its validity. For Einstein, the word impossible was not part of the equation.

Walt Disney and Impossible

Walt Disney’s inventions came to him in the form of daydreams, daydreams so vivid, that in spite of the many obstacles he faced, he endured in creating Disneyland Amusement Park.  To this day the park not only nurtures the magic in children, but celebrates possibility thinking and imagination. It prides itself in showcasing innovations that point to the future of technology. For Disney, the future depended on the young generation going well beyond the word impossible.

Why we love the word “Impossible”

Best selling author Rick Hanson in his book “Hardwiring Happiness” says that brain research indicates that part of the brain loves negativity, nurtures it and enjoys it. What does that part of the brain do with the word impossible?

The brain’s“enjoyment of negativity” means that our tendency in life is to automatically choose impossible over possible.  By choosing “impossible” the ego strengthens, and it constantly scans for information and events that will proof to us that the choice of impossible is valid.

“A Crime of the Mind”

 As we take this line of thought even further in our questioning, we discover that the mind so loves the word impossible that it shouts it out, screams it out to us. We can describe this as the“Crime of the Mind”.

If we truly sit with the thought that impossible is a “crime of the mind” and witness its devastating effects that keep us trapped in smallness, this contemplation can be liberating.

As soon as we increase the awareness of ourselves and see the world through the lens of “possible”, our horizons expand and magic flows with ease.

Exercise to increase yogic performance

  1. On a paper write the heading Impossible. Then write down 10 postures that you desire but consider difficult or impossible.
  2. Sit with the idea that what you have been labeling as impossible is a “crime of the mind”.
  3. When you have shifted your consciousness, on the list of 10 postures, from impossible to potential, take a pen and cross out the heading and write possible instead.
  4. Repeat this exercise for 21 days until you can look at the list and smile. Enjoy the potential of your future.
  5. Now in the yoga class feel your body move into those postures with excitement and ease.

Haritaki at the Kumbh Mela

by

I am at the Kumbh Mela in Ujain India, with about 30 million other pilgrimage makers!

It is a totally wild scene here. I am at the program being run by Paramahamsa Nithyananda. The program is about developing the ability to increase intuition and there are some remarkable events showing up. For instance, the other day about 90% of over 2000 participants shared that they had intuitively recognized various objects using their third eye.

Nithyananda recommends that we all take Haritaki daily as part of our regime to increase consciousness.

The children here are frequently and casually displaying remarkable intuitive skills. For instance, one friend had lost a sacred jewel from his bed area. He had searched three times for it. He went to one of the children. They closed their eyes and scanned and told him that the sacred jewel was inside his suitcase on one corner of it. He went and looked and, lo and behold there it was.  This sort of story is quite common the kids are the automatic go to when an article is lost, and their success is almost 100%

Many people here are also reporting great success with Haritaki.

Ian, a professional musician feels that it gives him much more energy. He was developing a sore in his mouth, so asked me for help and took some capsules, crunched on them and reported that he immediately felt some relief, and reported later that the issue was cleared.

One of the highlights the time here is seeing the rapid improvement in third eye reading by the adults and children. Each day more and more people show skills. Today a friend, Sylvia from Vancouver, came to me and told me that she was asked to read with her third eye what another person was thinking. She said that she scanned for about 2 minutes and then saw me. She said,” Dheera?” She was correct, the other person, another friend of mine had decided to visualize me. Sylvia was really happy to have that image appear for her and have it confirmed.

For myself I too have had some breakthroughs. One day we were asked to identify a color that the team lead was thinking of. As soon as the question was asked I sensed the word blue from my internal intuition. This was correct. The next question about what the team lead was thinking was also correct.

Many people here are used to taking Haritaki, they are confirmed long term takers, who feel that the product is helping them a lot. Many of them are able to take it by the spoonful.

Reducing obesity with Haritaki

How to reduce obesity by using Haritaki and Haritaki Plus

A very powerful study was recently conducted in India using traditional furmulas of Haritaki.

In this case the Haritaki formula called for preparing the Haritaki by mixing it with cow urine.

If this sounds odd or unusual to you please know that in India cow urine is considered sacred and is used for many  activities in the house.

The study is from this source: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4279317/

I quote from it:

Background:

India is currently witnessing rising numbers of people in the middle-class who are obese. A lot of the Indian population has started relying on processed foods that contain a huge percentage of trans-fat, sugars, and other unhealthy and artificial ingredients. Obesity is considered the core of many diseases. Increased weight carries significant health risks for some cancers, diabetes, heart diseases and strokes. Junk food, alcohol and sedentary lifestyle are leading us to silent self destruction, making one in every five Indian men and women either obese or overweight.

Aim:

To determine the effect of Gomutra Haritaki on Sthaulya.

Materials and Methods:

An observational pilot study on the effect of Gomutra Haritaki, diet control and exercise in the management of Sthaulya (obesity) was conducted on 21 patients. Enrolled patients were screened on the basis of clinical findings and allocated into two groups. Trial group received Gomutra Haritaki (6 g/day in three divided doses) while control group received placebo capsules in the same dose for 8 weeks.

Result:

Statistically highly significant relief was found in weight reduction (P < 0.001), and body mass index (BMI) (P < 0.01) in both groups. Control group has shown better results against trial group.

Conclusion:

These results prove the impact of diet and exercise in the management of Sthaulya.

You can read the full report on the web site.

This Ayurvedic medicine is known and manufactured and can be purchased in India. i do not distribute that medicine in North America.

North America has a huge obesity issue with the population. More than one third of the population in the USA is obese. that is approximately 100 million people. The reasons for the obesity are: overeating. The US population consumes much more than any other population in the world. this is partly driven by the prevalence of both food advertising, and  the prevalence of fast food facilities all over the country.

In addition to the easy access to large amounts of food, the US population has reduced physical activity very rapidly. Some estimates give the figure of 1.7 miles per week as the number of miles that are walked by the average American.

Obesity is common, serious and costly

  • More than one-third (34.9% or 78.6 million) of U.S. adults are obese. [Read abstract Journal of American Medicine (JAMA)]
  • Obesity-related conditions include heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes and certain types of cancer, some of the leading causes of preventable death. [Read guidelines]
  • The estimated annual medical cost of obesity in the U.S. was $147 billion in 2008 U.S. dollars; the medical costs for people who are obese were $1,429 higher than those of normal weight. [Read summary]
