How to Uplift your Bad Mood?

We all have days in which we are occupied with some not so good thoughts; some kind of activity affects our mind and we are bothered by it. We keep thinking about them. These moments do not have a major significance in our lives in the future but at the moment we are full of them. 
These thoughts make us do things which hurt us as well as others. We tend to get angry, we tend to say things or do things which spoil our relationship with them. To shield from all this, we should try Yogic ways to help us calm down during that time. 
To overcome in these situations, our mind should focus on adopting positive habits in life. We should spend more time in nature, which gives us peace of mind. We should also do Pranayama.
Patanjali Yoga Sutra explains that when we try and keep our mind into positive activities, when we see only positive things in an act or person and are only affected by their virtues- our mind is more relaxed, calm and positive. It explains 4 ways to uplift your mood:
  1. Celebrate Happiness: Find happiness in everything. If you go out to celebrate someone else’s happiness, try and be a part of it. Don’t get jealous of others. 
  2. Be compassionate in misery: When somebody is going through a tough time, be there for them rather than enjoying. Help them overcome their misery. It will make you feel good naturally.
  3. Promote the Virtues: Promote the goodness in others, don’t just keep it to yourselves. Even when you are sad spread their goodness and it will definitely come back to you. 
  4. Indifference towards the vice: There are lots of people who we cannot understand- money minded, materialistic. It is us who should see the positive light in them and guide them toward goodness. 
Try and find goodness in everyone and every situation, even if it means that we have to go deep into it. Don’t get stressed out by hard times. Try and overcome these as quickly as possible.

Tips to achieve Vairagya?

Here are the tips to achieve Vairagya: Practice humility in daily life Humility takes us towards Vairagya. There are various ways to develop humility in our attitude: We can try by offering a place to sit to elderly people, or children, or pregnant women.  We must help physically impaired people in various walks of life, maybe as small as a thing like helping a blind person cross the road.  We often dislike some people but we should never find happiness in their misery or suffering.  Never hesitate in apologizing.  Share food with people around us. Give your time and energy to people in need.    Control senses In Yoga, we believe to moderate all our activities and senses. All our actions should also be controlled.  When we have our favourite food in front of us we can’t control and continuously eat. We eat more than our appetite. We forget the sole purpose of food. We should only eat how much we should, we shouldn’t get drifted away with desire. Stop m...

Coping Up in the Modern World

In today’s world, everybody likes to live by their rules. Nobody wants to listen to anybody else who instructs them. They want to make their own mistakes and learn from them.  Parents want their children to listen to them and obey them. But children don’t want to be told what to do. The movie ‘Freaky Friday’ also shows the same. In the movie a mother and a daughter had a huge age gap and hence could not get along with each other. They go to a restaurant to eat dinner. There the mother forbids her daughter from going on a date. The daughter wants to go on the date and hence they keep arguing while biting their fortune cookies. After having fortune cookies they happen to switch their bodies and the mother gets into the daughter’s body while the daughter gets into the mother’s body.   After switching their bodies, they feel what the other person was saying and understand each other. Only selfless love for the other person can get this triggered.  All this doesn’t really happ...
