My Triumph of Adventure - River Rafting At Rishikesh

As we all know fear is a natural phenomenon. Fear prevents you from achieving, expressing, earning or conducting one's daily living with a free bent of mind. When fear reaches this stage, its called as "Phobia". Yes, I too had a phobia, and it is called as "Aqua-phobia". Aqua-phobia is nothing but fear of water. I am born with the phobia of water. This has taken me to the form of anxiety, panic attacks whenever I used see ponds, rivers or sea.

Due to this fear my day to day life has become highly complicated. Aqua-phobia really cannot be explained with a reason. I have tried all the possible ways to over come from this phobia but did not get success.

Time changed, when I strongly decided to get rid from this phobia,KYONKI DAR KE AAGE JEET HAI!!! The girl who  never enjoyed water, who never played in rain, who never enjoyed sea shore, who never enjoyed water fall has decided to do something new with Mountain Dew, because I wanted to rise above fear! I thank my better half for helping me to over come from Aqua-phobia phobia.

In May 2014, My hubby planned for River Rafting at Rishikesh. When I heard RIVER Rafting fear was in my nerves. I cannot express my fear how I felt at that moment in words. I agreed as I decided to RISE ABOVE FEAR.

We packed our luggage and moved to Rishikesh. Rishikesh, wah what a place!!! scenic Himalayas, holy Ganga has made me her fan. But River rafting? heart came to my mouth!!! Thanks to my hubby's encouragement. Finally, I and my hubby stepped in to the river rafting boat with river rafting dress. Before giving a start to the adventure packed expedition in Rishikesh, rafting boat captain explained us about the basics of rafting technique to derive its pleasure to extreme.

Natural tides of Ganga rolling through rocky obstacles, made it an amazing experience. Melting of snow in Himalayan during the month of May, instantly rejuvenated river. In this river rafting at Rishikesh, there are 13 exciting river rapids namely -Sweet Sixteen (Grade 1), Hilton and Terminator (Grade 2), Three Blind Mice (Grade 3), Cross Fire (Grade 3) and Roller Coaster (Grade 4) and so on.

We success crossed all the grades with no fear. I even jumped in the river with my hubby's help, it was overwhelming feel. In the middle of the rafting there comes a Maggie Point, yes Maggie point, where I and my husband enjoyed Maggie and Mountain Dew.

After doing the river rafting I realized that adventure is something, which certainly belongs to you and you can cross all your fears to experience it.

A Healthy Family Makes A Healthy and Happy Child!!!

We now live in a digital era. These days for us the authentic diet composed of pizzas, burgers, French fries and other choices at fast food, even during pregnancy!  Children these days would like to eat chocolate, ice creams, and other processed foods.   To take a over view, most of us everyday eat preservatives, high sugar content and other artificial ingredients. In one word, the normal diet for a typical family is composed of unhealthy food.

My uncle and aunt’s story is the best example for this. My aunty never ate a healthy diet during her pregnancy and due to weak immunity; she was the easy target for cold, viral fever and cough. The legacy continued with her child too. As soon as my cousin born, in very first week he started suffering from jaundice!!! Yes, jaundice. After that pneumonia!!! We were in really very bad situation. Everyone was praying for the newborn’s recovery.

By the grace of god he has recovered from it very soon. At that time I have realized “A healthy child makes a happy home”. If the baby is unhappy, there is no way to be the family happy.

After that my aunty realized her mistake and started eating Dabur Chywanprash every day. Now, my cousin is five years old and he eats Dabur Chywanprash every day. Now, I also understood that, child’s diet is a vital part, providing the right diet for kids is one of the best ways to show your love to your children. 

Additionally,  Dabur Chywanprash is 100% natural without any preservatives and other artificial ingredients, which significantly helps your child to be immune to all kind of diseases, and viral fevers.

You may ask why only Dabur Chywanprash?! Because child may not be getting a proper nutrients due to poor diet, sometimes even at rich diet. Insufficient vitamins, minerals and other nutrients can affect your baby and can cause weaker immune system.

Dabur Chywanprash is a time-tested age-old formula, which has Amla and other ingredients like Ashwagandha, Guduchi, Satavari, Bala, Vidarikand and other 40 natural ingredients, which strengthen you and your child’s immune system.

Chyawanprash has the ability to increase your immunity and protects you from infections like cold, cough and viral fever. Immunity is the key factor for the good health of the human body. Moreover, Dabur Chywanprash provides the complete nutrition and energy to your child. 1 teaspoonful twice daily with warm milk or water, can improve memory, intelligence and growth promotion in children.

Happy news for the diabetic patient is, even they can consume it without any hesitation. It is suitable for all age group of people starting from the age six.  So, what are you waiting for? Start eating Dabur Chywanprash with your child and make your family a happy family.

Arohi's Style Shopping at BaggOut.com

Tere liye hi jiya main

Khud ko jo yun de diya hai

Teri wafa ne mujhko sambhala

Saare ghamon ko dil se nikaala

Main jo mit bhi gaya tto wajood mera

Sadaa tujh mein rahe zinda

Kyun ki tum hi ho, abb tum hi ho

Ki zindagi abb tum hi ho.. woh o..

Chain bhi, mera dard bhi

Meri aashiqui abb tum hi ho

When you here this song, A blockbuster movie comes in my mind with the songs sung by fress Voices, a pair of fresh faces, romantically hidden under a jacket. And most beautiful pretty lady in blue saree, Arohi. 

Yes, today Arohi is there with us for shopping, she has suggested me to do shopping at Baggout.com
