हास्य प्रसंग Premanand ji Maharaj
Satsangs are gatherings where scattered minds unite through music, meditation, and wisdom to experience a higher state of consciousness.
Art of Living satsangs reverberate across 151 countries. People from all over the world who know different languages participate in the singing of bhajans, or the repetitive chanting of a word or a verse. “In satsang, both the left and right hemispheres of the brain get balanced. The wandering mind comes back to the present moment and experiences a deeper dimension to life,” explains Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar.
One can choose to listen to the bhajans or participate and sing.Either way, satsangs help in centering the mind. The chants in satsang take us beyond music to a silent corner of our inner self.
“The word bhajan is very precious. Bhaj means to share. Sharing all that the Divine is. It is not necessary to know the words or meaning to any song. Singing helps to bring serenity. Singing is simply merging into the sounds, floating on its waves with a sense of contentment and meditation,” shares Gurudev.
Satsang frees you from worries
Sound is energy. Our human nervous system responds to the sounds and vibrations of ancient Sanskrit chants. Listening to these sounds has a rejuvenating effect on the body, mind and spirit.
In between each bhajan is the silence. Still and calm, the mind relaxes. “Doing more satsang and seva is the way to reduce misery. We are so fortunate. We have this opportunity to even think, discuss knowledge and have an experience of that inner space,” explains Gurudev. “If you have any worries, you have to leave it here; that’s the rule of Satsang, you cannot take your worries back. You can go only after you drop them here.”
Satsangs hasten you towards inner peace
The entire universe is made of rhythms. When sounds are in harmony, there is music; non harmonious sounds create chaos. Similarly, when there is rhythm or harmony in life, the heart blossoms; there is humanism. It is this rhythm that takes us back to our source. We may identify ourselves as officers, housewives, teachers, but these are just external identifications. Satsangs help us move beyond such identifications towards our source – from where we came.
Satsangs are not limited to any culture or geographical region. Whether it is the harmonious sound of gongs in Buddhist meditations or Jewish hymns since ancient times, people from all cultures and traditions have used music to further people on their spiritual journey.

Tips to Improve your Mental Health
There are many different things you can do to improve your mental health, including:
Staying positive. It's important to try to have a positive outlook; some ways to do that include
Finding balance between positive and negative emotions. Staying positive doesn't mean that you never feel negative emotions, such as sadness or anger. You need to feel them so that you can move through difficult situations. They can help you to respond to a problem. But you don't want those emotions to take over. For example, it's not helpful to keep thinking about bad things that happened in the past or worry too much about the future.
Trying to hold on to the positive emotions when you have them
Taking a break from negative information. Know when to stop watching or reading the news. Use social media to reach out for support and feel connected to others but be careful. Don't fall for rumors, get into arguments, or negatively compare your life to others.
Practicing gratitude, which means being thankful for the good things in your life. It's helpful to do this every day, either by thinking about what you are grateful for or writing it down in a journal. These can be big things, such as the support you have from loved ones, or little things, such as enjoying a nice meal. It's important to allow yourself a moment to enjoy that you had the positive experience. Practicing gratitude can help you to see your life differently. For example, when you are stressed, you may not notice that there are also moments when you have some positive emotions. Gratitude can help you to recognize them.
Taking care of your physical health, since your physical and mental health are connected. Some ways to take care of your physical health include
Being physically active. Exercise can reduce feelings of stress and depression and improve your mood.
Getting enough sleep. Sleep affects your mood. If you don't get a good sleep, you may become more easily annoyed and angry. Over the long term, a lack of quality sleep can make you more likely to become depressed. So it's important to make sure that you have a regular sleep schedule and get enough quality sleep every night.
Healthy eating. Good nutrition will help you feel better physically but could also improve your mood and decrease anxiety and stress. Also, not having enough of certain nutrients may contribute to some mental illnesses. For example, there may be a link between low levels of vitamin B12 and depression. Eating a well-balanced diet can help you to get enough of the nutrients you need.
Connecting with others. Humans are social creatures, and it's important to have strong, healthy relationships with others. Having good social support may help protect you against the harms of stress. It is also good to have different types of connections. Besides connecting with family and friends, you could find ways to get involved with your community or neighborhood. For example, you could volunteer for a local organization or join a group that is focused on a hobby you enjoy.
Developing a sense of meaning and purpose in life. This could be through your job, volunteering, learning new skills, or exploring your spirituality.
Developing coping skills, which are methods you use to deal with stressful situations. They may help you face a problem, take action, be flexible, and not easily give up in solving it.
Meditation, which is a mind and body practice where you learn to focus your attention and awareness. There are many types, including mindfulness meditation and transcendental meditation. Meditation usually involves
A quiet location with as few distractions as possible
A specific, comfortable posture. This could be sitting, lying down, walking, or another position.
A focus of attention, such as a specially chosen word or set of words, an object, or your breathing
An open attitude, where you try to let distractions come and go naturally without judging them
Relaxation techniques are practices you do to produce your body's natural relaxation response. This slows down your breathing, lowers your blood pressure, and reduces muscle tension and stress. Types of relaxation techniques include
Progressive relaxation, where you tighten and relax different muscle groups, sometimes while using mental imagery or breathing exercises
Guided imagery, where you learn to focus on positive images in your mind, to help you feel more relaxed and focused
Biofeedback, where you use electronic devices to learn to control certain body functions, such as breathing, heart rate, and muscle tension
Self-hypnosis, where the goal is to get yourself into a relaxed, trance-like state when you hear a certain suggestion or see a specific cue
Deep breathing exercises, which involve focusing on taking slow, deep, even breaths

BENEFITS OF DETOXING FOR FITNESS AND HEALTH
Detox diets often involve the use of laxatives, diuretics, vitamins, minerals, teas, and other foods thought to have detoxing properties.
The term “toxin” in the context of detox diets is loosely defined. It typically includes pollutants, synthetic chemicals, heavy metals, and processed foods, which can negatively affect health.
However, popular detox diets rarely identify the specific toxins they aim to remove or the mechanism by which they supposedly eliminate them.
Moreover, no evidence supports the use of these diets for toxin elimination or sustainable weight loss (1Trusted Source, 2Trusted Source).
Your body has a sophisticated way of eliminating toxins that involves the liver, kidneys, digestive system, skin, and lungs.
Still, only when these organs are healthy can they effectively eliminate unwanted substances.
So while detox diets don’t do anything that your body can’t naturally do on its own, you can optimize your body’s natural detoxification system.

The Best Funny Cat Videos_ The Cutest Cat Video
Did you know that Maine has an official state cat? That’s right, it’s the Maine Coon. This beautiful-looking cat has a thick ruff of hair, fluffy pants and a huge, tufted tail that he can wrap around himself for warmth.
Maines are also famous for being probably the oldest native breed of cat in America. Their long, silky hair makes them eminently strokable. They also happen to be one of the largest cat breeds in the world, weighing between 9 and 18 pounds, if you fancy both a large and lovable companion in your life!
Persians are the most popular pedigree cat in America, and we can see why. Persians have a calm personality and beautiful, flowing coats which do need a bit of looking after! Grumpy cat, one of the most famous online cats, is thought to be part Persian.
In 1961, a shepherd in Scotland found a cat with an unusual trait - she had ears that folded forwards. This original cat, named Susie, was the ancestor of the breed known today as Scottish Fold (or Highland Fold for the long-haired variety). Their drop ears give them a quizzical, super-appealing quality. If you own a Scottish Fold, you’ll know they are almost impossible to resist!
