Waking Up!!!

My Dad loved to wake me up at 5:30 each morning. I found that absolutely cruel and wondered if he did it with the sole intention of irritating me. After all the school bus came at 7:30, and I never took more than 10 minutes to Get Ready and Eat my Breakfast. So WHY!!!!... However today, I wish I could wake up at that hour. Everyday I try to get myself out of bed by 6...and if by 7:30 I'm out of it, I consider it an achievement. "Sleeping Early and Waking up Early" is one of the basic techniques to Good Health. I disagreed with that while I was younger, but now I believe it to be absolutely true. Waking up early to a glass of "Lukewarm Water with Lemon", followed by "10 Minutes of Stretching Exercises and Yoga" is the Best Start one can give to one's day.

Benefits of Waking Up Early:

-- More Time Definitely: Time to plan the day, time to iron clothes, time to have that juice, Time to study
-- Rids lethargy somehow...
-- Early morning is a great time to see some nice cute birds, so all orithologists better wake up early...
-- Waking up early also is wonderful for students with exams around the corner. Studies just happen better...
-- You get to see the sunrise...
-- More time to get to work, school, college...Easier Travel... Beat Rush Hour Traffic...

as of today, a Google Search for "Benefits of Waking Up Early" threw up 1330 results. The best of the lot in my opinion are ZenHabits and Advantages of Waking up Early

Hello Gemini Season. Time to get the flirt on

Gemini season is when social calendars heat up (and maybe romances, too.)   One of my oldest crushes and super close friend is a crazy Gemini. Every time her birthday is near, she starts going nuts and starts hunting out adventure of all kinds... and as the birthday passes she starts getting uber serious about making the rest of the year count in ways most cant imagine. One year she left her job as a physiotherapist and became an RJ. Another year, she reached out to some great producers and started a singing career which has taken off beautifully. Gemini season brings a wave of vibrant energy and endless possibilities! Curiosity and versatility are supported as the sun steps into the social air sign. This season is an invitation to embrace your inner social butterfly, dive into fascinating conversations, and explore your various interests.   It’s also a great season to revisit our goals and ambitions for the year, tackle creative projects, and dream big dreams.    ...

What makes this Full Moon particularly significant is its dynamic celestial dance with Mars. Their proximity suggests a cosmic green light for releasing what no longer serves us—whether it's outdated family patterns, stagnant relationships, or home-related stress that's been weighing heavily on your spirit. With Saturn and Venus joining forces in pragmatic Capr...
