A Visit to Bisleri's Iconic Mumbai Plant - My Experience and Key Learnings
Visiting the Bisleri Mumbai plant was an awesome experience as it’s the oldest and the most trusted brand when it comes to mineral water. I have always had immense trust in Bisleri when I had to buy a packed bottle of water for my little one, especially whenever we were travelling. So when I got the chance to visit the Mumbai plant, I was on cloud 9! I could gather so much of information from there which I could pass on to my fellow moms who’ve had so many queries regarding mineral water. I would love to share some of the knowledge I could gather from this fruitful visit.
Bisleri water is checked to ensure the absence of harmful chemicals and microbes by qualified staff in the plant’s lab, before it reaches the consumer. However, the water from domestic purifiers is not tested for such parameters.
It was great to see the water going through a 10-step purification process. Two steps of ozonisation are carried out to disinfect water. The water’s shelf life is increased to last for 6 months. There are 114 quality tests done to monitor and control the presence of micro-organisms and measure the concentration of ozone in water. In addition to all this, Bisleri bottles are fully recyclable.
Some of the experiences were incredible, like watching the making of the bottle using highly modernized equipment. Bisleri bottles are only blown on site to avoid any external contamination. The bottle is made using a preform that is fed into the mould, blown, and stretched to its size at 100 degrees Celsius. Blowing at such a high temperature ensures that any harmful bacteria, if at all present, is killed. Bisleri has also established a unique and highly reliable double ozonisation process. Ozone is at least 50 times more powerful and 3000 times faster than chlorination when it comes to killing bacteria and other microbes. Ozone is added to the water again to sustain the purity & quality of water. There is an RO process which removes unwanted salts from the water; however, this step
also eliminates essential minerals that are good for health. Therefore, a very critical step is taken wherein the right amount of vital minerals such as potassium and magnesium are added, making the water healthy and giving it a sweet taste. Bisleri ensures that even the smallest micron-particles (up to 0.45 microns in size) are removed from the water.
Let me also tell you about some of the benefits of ozonisation:
Strengthens your immune system
Kills bacteria and viruses on contact
Increases the oxygen levels of cells in the human body
Detoxifies the human body
Has anti-ageing properties and increases energy
Reduces acidity
Watching the labelling procedure was also a good experience as this was my first time being on a factory visit. Every bottle has a code printed stating the batch number, date, time, and manufacturing location. Stringent quality control checks are done for each and every batch so that Bisleri’s quality standards are met.
Here Are The 10 Steps of the Quality Process
1. Careful Collection
Collected water from rivers undergoes a quality control check at the source.
2. Ozonisation
Ozonisation is done to kill harmful bacteria.
3. Sand Filter
Unwanted solid particles of up to 30 microns in size are filtered.
4. Carbon Filter
This step helps to get rid of unwanted colour, odour, and harmful pesticides, if any, to ensure that quality standards are met.
5. Reverse Osmosis
Water then goes through Reverse Osmosis, commonly known as RO, a purification technology that removes soluble solids from water. However, the challenge is that while it does remove unwanted particles from the water, it also eliminates minerals in the process.
6. Mineralisation
Magnesium, an essential mineral to maintain bone health and heart health, is added to the water.
7. Micron-Filtration
Micron-filtration is the second last stage of water purification.
8. Re-Ozonisation
Drinking ozonated water is known to increase oxygen levels in the body, thus, helping to improve energy levels and boosting the immune system.
9. Careful Bottling
Bottles go through ozonisation again, to ensure that highest safety standards are met.
10. Final Quality Control
Every batch of bottles is checked so that Bisleri’s quality standards are met.
I was lucky enough to take my son to see this process. He was quite excited. All the mothers that visited the plant along with their kids also had an awesome time;the kids had some fun sessions in the crèche or lounge area where they coloured, watched TV, and were gifted a cute camel soft toy and a puzzle.
I’m quite happy with Bisleri. Now, you too can get the guarantee of purity in every drop with Bisleri Mineral Water original bottled water . Because, har maa janti hai #HarPaaniKiBottleBisleriNahi! I am assured now that Bisleri is the right choice for Veer.

Beautiful Instrumental Tracks That Should Be On Your Yoga Playlist
It is absolutely no joke how much motherhood demands of a woman’s body. You make space in your body for 9 months to grow a baby, and no one really tells you that these demands from your body are not going to get over simply after giving birth! Even daddies are super stressed as they have to become more responsible now and also have to make sure their bundle of joy gets everything to have a comfortable life. Since, as parents, you always put your baby first, and self-care and self-appreciation entirely take a backseat for you, yoga becomes much needed for you to appreciate your body, mind and soul in a new way.
Music can be the perfect addition to meditation, mindfulness and yoga. Listening to music while doing yoga can invoke many emotions. The right kind of song played while doing yoga can make you happy, and the wrong kind can make you feel anxious or sad. Thus, what you listen to while exercising is very important as it does have a profound effect on your yoga sessions. It is said that listening to instrumental music while doing yoga is found to be deeply relaxing. So, we’ve curated a yoga playlist of the very best instrumental music for the next time you practise yoga.
7 Instrumental Numbers You Must Add to Your Yoga Playlist
If there are a time and place for instrumental music, it’s definitely in a yoga class. But, finding instrumental tracks for doing yoga is much harder than you think. Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! We have put together a list of 10 soulful instrumental songs which are going to help you meditate and will also help you ace your asanas.
1. Guru Mantra – Songs for the Sangha by Deva Premal and Miten
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQ6ohvYQ1Oo&t=154s
Songs for the Sangha by Deva Premal and Miten is an album that features mantras from the Indian and Tibetan culture. Musicians from India, Nepal and UK have come together to create music which is soulful and has an ethnic touch to it.

7 Signs That Tell Your Preschooler Has Learnt To Negotiate
Negotiation is a crucial quality that your preschooler needs to learn to lead a peaceful and happy life. Your growing little one needs to learn that he should not stick to his particular opinion, idea, or choice but also consider and appreciate others point of view when both make sense. And, if you have been working towards making your preschooler learn to negotiate in his day-to-day life and wish to check whether he has adapted to this good quality, here are certain signs that can help you!
1. Expresses His Own Choices
If your child expresses his choices or ideas instead of demanding his choice, then that’s a sign indicating your kid has learnt to negotiate. You will find your preschooler expressing that he likes a certain game or bag that he would like to have, and asks you whether you can get it for him. Furthermore, your preschooler may also ask you to make a “good” choice if you happen to reject his choice.
2. Practices Give and Take Policy
If your preschooler puts a step forward to share his toys with his friends, then you can say your little one has learnt to negotiate. Instead of refusing to share his toys with others, you will find your kid willing to share his toys with his friends and ask them to share their toys with him. Following such a ‘Give and Take’ policy promotes negotiation tendency in kids.
3. Asks For Your Opinions
Do you find your preschooler asking which pair of shoes or a T-shirt he should wear while going to the playground? If yes, that’s a good sign. Your child speaks up and asks for your opinion, instead of sticking to his particular notion all the time. This is a healthy sign indicating your child has adapted negotiation tendency.
4. Agrees To Settle a Conflict
When in a conflict with other kids, if your child agrees to cool down and settles the conflict by considering a few of his ideas as well as his friends’ ideas then that’s a good sign of negotiation. Your kid chooses to respect others’ point of view while settling a conflict.
5. Learns Good Manners
If you find your little one saying ‘Sorry’, ‘Thank You’, ‘Welcome’, or ‘Have Something’ and following good manners, then it indicates that your child is learning to negotiate. Following good manners is a sign of respecting others which helps build stronger social bonds.
6. Follows Your Instructions
Following your instructions and guidelines is one of the most prominent signs that tell your preschooler has learnt to negotiate. You will find your little one listening to all your instructions attentively and following them appropriately. He knows you want the best for him. He also knows that doing this will make you happy!
7. Builds New Friendships
If your kid makes new friends, then you can say he has learnt to negotiate. How? By making new friends, your little one learns to understand his interests and the others’ interests as well. You may find a positive change in your kid as he builds new friendships. Read more

My Experience with Play-Doh Shape-A-Story
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4SQrgZtNPAs
I am a mom of three-years old, highly curious twins who need something really creative and entertaining to stay engaged. I usually prefer involving them in different age-appropriate activities that ensure both fun and learning. Recently I tried Play-Doh Shape and Learn and found it as quite an interesting way to involve kids in open-ended play.
What I really liked about the Play-Doh is that it is soft, easy to use for the little fingers and all made of safe, non-toxic material. Both Aarav & Aarohi can actually play with it independently after learning once how to roll, flatten and cut using the shape cutters.
The Play-Doh variant that we tried ‘Shape A Story’ also includes two double-sided playmats that allow us to build a story and involve kids in a fun pretend play. It works really well to improve language skills, imagination and creativity in kids. A&A enjoy making their own baby with the doh, and then take him to the garden, put him to sleep, etc using the playmat. And they usually get engrossed for hours while playing with it.
I can easily say that Play-Doh is a highly engaging kit with some versatile activities that guarantee loads of fun to the kids as they learn different concepts and acquire new skills.
