“Worry often give a small thing a big shadow ‘. And no doubt that worry is the main factor for Stress. It is actually takes your breaths without letting you know. We live in a world where people don’t have time to stand and appreciate the wonders that nature creates on every another second.
Living in a co-operate lifestyle I myself know how the hell life had become. Flower blooms , Sun sets , Sun rises who cares it takes on regular interval but we forget to look that the flower which blooms everyday is different from the previous one, Sun sets but sky has blended itself in different shades. And when it went to its peak I had started neglecting the changes in me. I took decision to go on a long journey. I just wanted to be myself nothing else just me and myself.
“The miracle is not to walk on the water or on the air. It is to walk on the earth “.
I took a long holiday, unaware of where I will go and what kind of holiday I will be experiencing it was just I want to go somewhere. After drilling my brains to hell I made my decision to make my trip to India. I had heard that India is land of various colors but had never experienced. It was huge difference of cultural blend but I just wanted to go.
My few days in India were like I was living with some aliens who, were definitely made up of flesh same as of mine but I guess they were warmer. It was all together a unique experience. Everything almost everything is very appealing and has charismatic looks. Bright colors, Endless Spices, Delicacy found in food and just as a street takes a turn the food, language varies. It is almost impossible to count the number of delicious dishes I must have tried out. But what drew me magnetically towards them were some kind of shrubs, leaves, plants that are available in abandon in every nook and corner of the city.
My travel guide was kind enough to answer all my questions which I poured on him. And that’s how I got entry into to the WORLD OF MAGIC, the magic that is created by nature. The magic is created by herbs, shrubs, leaves, fruits and all that a forest can give you and the magic is called Ayurveda. Ayurveda is a traditional medicine native to Indian continents. Ayurveda has the power to heal much severe disease. I got as many information as I could get about treasure. It is exactly like getting in a cave, a dark, mysterious, capricious but once you enter and walk in proper direction you discover a treasure that is eternal.
During my entire process of gaining the knowledge I came in acquaintance with flax seeds, this are easily available in US. And a to my surprise it was a great a solution to the biggest nightmares called “STRESS “.
Yes, I m saying right guys. Flax seeds have proven out to be wizard in curing stress.

It is called as Agasi/Akshi in Kannada, Jawas/Javas or Alashi in Marathi. Flax was extensively cultivated in ancient Egypt. Dyed flax fibers have been found in the Republic of Georgia.
Flax is an erect annual plant growing to 1.2 m tall, with slender stems. The leaves are glaucous green, slender lanceolate. The flowers are pure pale blue, with five petals; they can also be bright red. The fruit is a round, dry capsule containing several glossy brown seeds shaped like an apple pip
In addition to referring to the plant itself, the word “flax” may refer to the unspun fibers of the flax plant.
- Flaxseed oil is a blue flowering plant which is rich in health improving oil containing high levels of Omega 3. Omega 3 maintains optimal levels of serotonin in our brains. Serotonin is responsible for nerve connections and emotional response recognition. This helps us cope more easily with stress in our lives.
- Flaxseed oil also contains tryptophan which has amino acid and a serotonin stabilizer. Tryptophan helps relieve anxiety and depression. Flaxseed oil helps us maintain a healthy blood sugar level to help us remain calm and stable.
- Flaxseed oil also contains B vitamins, potassium, and magnesium relieves stress .The Omega 3 in flaxseed oil is an essential fatty acid which is essential for the function and physiology of our brain.
- Omega 3 also improves cognition, memory, emotional stability, mood, concentration and restful sleep which are essential for dealing with stress.
- Flaxseed oil can reduce the risk of cancer by isolating affected cells and killing them, while leaving the healthy cells alone.
- Omega-3 is also a good nutrient for the brain and concentration. Omega-3 fats seem to work by making the thin fatty membranes that surround the nerve cells in the brain more flexible. This allows more neurotransmitters to be successfully transmitted between nerve cells, increasing our ability to think faster and concentrate better.
- Omega-3 has also been shown to have a number of other effects that control harmful inflammation (arthritis) and even possibly prevent depression.
- Flax seed is rich in phytochemicals, including many antioxidants. It is perhaps our best source of lignans, which convert in our intestines to substances which tend to balance female hormones. There is evidence that lignans may promote fertility, reduce peri-menopausal symptoms, and possibly help prevent breast cancer.
- It is very tough to find a food higher in fiber — both soluble and insoluble — than flax. This fiber is mainly responsible for the cholesterol-lowering. Fiber in the diet also helps stabilize blood sugar, and, of course, promotes proper functioning of the intestines.
Well, I guess I have shared my part and to be very honest it is stress free life that is making me happy and smile all around. And now I don’t even care for stress as I know I have found the ways to get over it. I can bang the stress that creates havoc in my life.
We blame many times for our crisis to god, but we forget if he gives problems he is the only one who provides you with solution. God gives, but man must open his hand.
Even in my case god had already provided the solution I just had to follow the path “The lord hath created medicines out of the earth: and he who is wise will not abhor them “. The solution to our all problems abide here only, on the earth, we just need to sort out them in regards with our needs.
Keep smiling and make your life healthy and happy. The simple and the best principal of life. Like it is said “EVERYTIME ONE LAUGHS, A NAIL IS REMOVED FROM ONE’S COFFIN “.
