<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Even if you don\u2019t do yoga, you should do these simple steps<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Health is of real wealth. This sentence seems to be so simple to read but difficult to implement. Worldwide health status is declining rapidly. There are a lot of reasons due to which health status is declining like adopting city lifestyle, occupational problems, increasing negligence toward health, unhealthy diet, Laziness toward exercise, increasing pollution due to human activities, etc. This gives rise to a lot of new or existing health problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the center for science and environment, Delhi it is observed that Ozone pollution (surface-level ozone) is higher this summer. This will cause serious respiratory problems. An increasing level of particulate matter also accounts for a lot of respiratory disorders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adoption of city lifestyle, like late-night party consuming alcohol, intake of an unhealthy diet or occupational problems like late-night work, prolonged sitting creates a lot of stress, spinal, neck related disorder. It contributes to obesity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So it becomes our responsibility to maintain our body healthy throughout our life. It makes our long journey flexible and to live without diseases. So now the question raises in our mind how can we make our body and mind healthy?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One can easily do it by just giving time to yourself. As the body is the main agent to perform our daily work so give at least an hour to maintain it. Try to extract this 1 hour from your daily routine for yourself. It will be best if this 1 hour is in the morning. In this 1 hour you can practice yoga (as it psychophysical practice), gym, running or jogging, walking, breathing exercises, dancing, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Whenever you read this line the importance of your face and eyes suddenly gets the value. In this 21st century, the things with which we are surrounded are very technologically polluted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    About 60-70% of the world population uses the digital mediums, It is more like the devices say, like our so-called smart-phones have become a un-discriminated identity from our body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    In research conducted by marketers dot com in 2017, on average, an adult spends 12.5 hours per day on digital mediums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

                    Do you think this is not affecting our health?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

                    Of course, it does, let me explain why?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    The most culprit behind making our eyes and face dull is the BLUE Light emitted out from the digital devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

                    HOW?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

                    Here is the Answer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Long haul introduction to concentrated blue light vitality can cause skin harm, including shading changes, irritation, and debilitating of the skin\u2019s surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Basically, blue light advances stressors in the skin that reason photograph maturing, that is, maturing from introduction to light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    The specialists propose that the dynamic pulverization of light-identifying cells in the eyes because of delayed presentation to blue light could, along these lines, add to age-related macular degeneration, which is the main source of visual deficiency. \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    \u201cIt is a well-known fact that blue light damages our vision by harming the eye\u2019s retina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    The most widely recognized sort of LED utilized in electronic gadgets is a white-light LED, which really has a pinnacle discharge in the blue wavelength run (400 \u2013 490 nm).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    The fact is Our eye\u2019s cornea and focal point are unfit to square or reflect blue light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    So, I think the above mentioned Answer is sufficient for you guys to understand why this blue light is so dangerous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    We all know \u201cthe beauty lies in eyes of the beholder\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    True right but, just think for a while what will happen if the eyes of the beholder are polluted by the digital mediums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    This may sound funny to most of the people but if you think form an angle it is so true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    So to enjoy the beauty of nature and make your face beautiful here are some yoga practices which will help to keep your eyes shining and face glowing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Not only these practices will help you with your face and eyes but we all know that summers are striking so some of the practices will also help you to keep your body cool and also help to increase the concentration power of your brain.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Although the benefits of the practices which I am going to tell are more than just you can imagine or we mentioned here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    So just take your Yoga mat and with your reading try to perform the practices also so you can experience the effects of the practices also.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    <\/p>\n\n\n\n
