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.

Oral Hygiene Instructions for Infants to School-going Children
Oral Hygiene is the practice of keeping the oral cavity, which includes the teeth, gums,and tongue clean. Parents should start maintaining oral hygiene of their child within a week after birth. The best time to counsel parents regarding oral hygiene is when the mother is expecting because parents to be more receptive at the time. As a dentist, I am here with some oral hygiene instructions for all age groups of kids.
1. Infants (0-1 year old )
Clean and massage the gums with a moistened gauze piece or wet cloth after every feed.
This helps in enhancing blood circulation in the gums and promotes growth of healthy bacteria.
In some kids, the first tooth comes at six months of age, whereas for others, it may come at around one year. So, on the basis of number of teeth erupted, use of a soft toothbrush is advised.
2. Toddlers (1-3 years old )
This is the best age to introduce your child to a tooth brush, if you have not done it earlier.
Brushing should be done by the parents, as the motor skills of children in this age group are not as developed.
Brush your child's teeth only with an infant sized toothbrush with soft bristles.
Only a non-fluoride toothpaste is advisable for kids under three years of age.
3. Preschoolers (3-6 years old)
A fluoride toothpaste can be introduced to kids, once they turn three years old.
The brushing technique of the child should be properly supervised by parents, or parents must assist their children in brushing teeth.
4. School-going kids (6-12 years old )
At this age, children now possess the dexterity to brush their teeth by themselves, but initially still require monitoring and reinforcement.
A fluoride rinse and floss can also be introduced to kids in this age group
The ideal time to replace your child's tooth brush is every three months or when you see the bristles appearing worn out, whichever comes sooner. Oral hygiene practices at home from an early age is very important to prevent condition like cavities and gingivitis in kids.

Keeping your Fitness Hormonally Balanced
As you delve deeper into the fitness challenge, you may face a battle of a different kind. Possibly trickier to deal with than body pain or lack of time, this is the battle of hormones! More and more training and exercise experts these days are talking about the trade-off between growth hormone (GH) and cortisol - both exercise related hormones that work against each other!
Have you been working out long and hard but are still struggling to look leaner? Perhaps you need "hormonal" intervention! The concept of growth hormone vs. cortisol is that when you exercise, your body releases both. While GHs burn accumulated fat deposits, give you sexy muscles and also have anti-ageing properties, cortisol does the opposite! It reduces metabolic rate, destroys well-earned muscles and generally dampens your fitness challenge.
How to Fix a Balanced Workout Routine for Women
1. Fall in love with growth hormone
When you're looking at flat abs, it's worthwhile falling in love with GH. What is human growth hormone? Just your best friend! A product of the anterior pituitary gland, it increases the synthesis of protein tissues for muscle repair or recovery. Not just that, it increases your overall metabolic rate, maintains and increases lean mass, improves sleeping patterns and releases more energy. And oh, if you want to make things a bit hotter, HG is also known to improve sexual performance. Now this can be the perfect complement to your daily fitness challenge!
2. But be wary of cortisol release!
Yikes, what releases cortisol? Well, there’s no thumb rule that guides this hormonal response to exercise. Higher workout intensities can peak either growth hormone or cortisol levels, and this varies across women. But in very high-intensity workouts, a cortisol spike tends to come on faster, while growth hormone release takes place in about 10-25 minutes of training time. Since the implications of cortisol release can make you look much older than your age, please actively ensure your body isn't producing too much!
3. How on earth to suppress production of cortisol?
Easy! Divide your workout sessions into shorter durations. Start training multiple times across the hours that you have on hand. The reason is that as little as 30-second “bursts” of exercise sets or high intensity “mini workouts” trigger off multiple bursts of the growth hormone. But they also prevent cortisol levels from rising beyond repair. Although tough to manage with a hectic career and parenting, no gain without some pain right?
4. Does my workout need a change?
Now that you're aware of what releases cortisol, it's a good idea to stick to many short-duration exercise sets rather than trying to do it all at once or too quickly. Figure out a way to workout in the office or at varied points in your day at home. In line with the available time and schedules, chalk out small high-intensity sessions for your situps, planks, crunches and leg lifts. The “mini workout” principles are any day better than longer workouts for women.
Now that you know hormonal battles are very much real, try to adopt a balanced workout routine for women. The mantra is to space workout in a manner that reduces cortisol and optimises GH. So, what are you waiting for? Wow the world with lean, sculpted abs beginning today! Read more

A. Kids mostly prefer using the left hand only as a very comfortable and that’s a very natural thing for them to use so if you want to change this habit you just have to constantly remind or tell your child to use the right hand that is what you can do as in India we believe that only right hand should be used for everything but actually if you see the kids using the left hand is very comfortable and there is no problem in that
