There was a millionaire who was bothered by severe eye pain. He consulted so many physicians and was getting his treatment done. He did not stop consulting galaxy of medical experts; he consumed heavy loads of drugs and underwent hundreds of injections.   But the ache persisted with great vigor than before. At last a monk who was supposed to be an expert in treating such patients was called for by the millionaire. The monk understood his problem and said that for sometime he should concentrate only on green colors and not to fall his eyes on any other colors. The millionaire got together a group of painters and purchased barrels of green color and directed that every object his eye was likely to fall to be painted in green color just as the monk had directed. When the monk came to visit him after few days, the millionaire’s servants ran with buckets of green paints and poured on him since he was in red dress, lest their master not see any other color and his eye ache

A man found a cocoon of a butterfly. One day a small opening appeared; he sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gone as far as it could and it could go no farther. Then the man decided to help the butterfly, so he took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then emerged easily. But it had a swollen body and small, shriveled wings.          The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that, at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body, which would contract in time. Neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and shriveled wings. It never was able to fly. What the man in his kindness and haste did not understand was that the restricting cocoon and the struggle required for the butter

As parents, we must realize that there is a thin line between being encouraging and authoritative. When we wish the child to exhibit some kind of behavior, we often tend to use negative reinforcement for the same. These sentences though seems to be harmless to say, have a great impact on the psyche of an innocent child and They might restrict the child’s natural growth process and instill a fear of an untoward happening that might actually be false in reality. Reasons why we should not use fear as a tool: Carl Pickhardt once said, “The enemies of confidence are fear and discouragement”. According to him, fear in any form, for anything can cripple a child’s confidence to try new or challenging things. It is extremely important for a child to be able to put his curiosity to good use. “Dependence on being told can keep the child from acting bold”, he says. They start developing false dependencies in their minds which not allow them to express their desires fully in a constructive way or

1. Try relaxation & deep breathing exercises Put things into perspective before you become upset or angry. Look into some relaxation techniques and deep breathing exercises. 2. Exercise regularly   Exercise increases heart and lung fitness while reducing stress, anxiety and insomnia. It also raises your endorphin levels — the natural “mood elevators” produced by the brain. Endorphins reduce pain, relax muscles, and produce feelings of well being. As a result, sleep will be deeper and more restful. Even something as simple as brisk walking can have a positive effect, if done regularly. 3. Keep mentally stimulated Boredom can actually keep you awake! If you’re physically and mentally active, you’re less likely to have poor sleep problem. 4. Eat properly Limit your intake of fat and fried foods. Avoid eating a large or heavy meal within two to three hours of bedtime. While such a meal can make you feel drowsy at first, you’ll probably toss and turn during the night.

“There was a time when I was just a dumb lump of red clay. Then one day my master came. He took me, brought me home, rolled and pounded me on a wooden table. Again and again, he poked his fingers into me until finally I yelled out: ‘Don’t do that! Leave me alone!’ But he only smiled and gently said: “Not yet!” Then, whoommmm! I was placed on a spinning wheel and suddenly spun around and around and around until I lost all my sense of direction: ‘Stop it; don’t you see that I’m getting sick? Quickly, take me from the spinning wheel!’ But the master only nodded in understanding and quietly said: “Not yet!” Then he placed me carefully into an oven. I never felt such heat. I yelled and knocked and pounded at the door: ‘It is hotter than hell – I’m burning to ashes. Please get me out of here before it is too late.’ I could only read his lips as he shook his head from side to side and silently pronounced, “Not yet!” After I had cooled down he carefully picked me up, looked at me and
