What possessions do you feel most attached to and why ?
How does holding onto them enhances your minimalist lifestyle ?
Covid-19 seems to be back with cases surging more than thousand cases in India, and we have been all down with viral flu like symptoms, with severe body pain, throat irritation and a little fever. My first line of defense has always been some naturopathy, possessing that knowledge makes me very attached to them. Mom always gave us natural medicines by following an Ayurveda book, written by a very famous Ayurveda doctor Laxman Mishra, back in sixties and several publications of that book has been done since then.
We still have that paper copy at home, but few years back, I was able to grab digital copies of those books (in pdf format) and whenever we face some health issues, I check those books and see, if we can have a quick natural remedy. For any particular issue, there are several solutions given in the book, but the hardest part is finding those natural ingredients, so I choose the one that can be easily available.
This one is a proven remedy which worked like a miracle in last Covid, can you guess which leaves are these ? We all recovered in just one day using this in last Covid time.
Parijat or night-blooming jasmine is believed to be a plant from heaven and has capability to treat flu and feverish condition, inflammation, sore throat, joint pain, respiratory problems and boost body's immune system, apart from some other benefits. Now tell me, will you get a single English medicine that would give all these benefits without any side effect ?
We have a plant right near the temple and there could not be any better medicine than this - so I grabbed 15 leaves for two doses. Two doses would suffice to bring you back in action with full of energies and all body pain gone. Mixing a little pepper powder and black salt, makes the drink tastier and the lady nicely prepared the drink.
Crush 7-8 leaves in the grinder with very little water, so that it becomes a thick paste, and then add water, otherwise, it won't be mixed well. You can filter and drink the juice alone, or drink it in entirety, which is more effective. And with every Ayurveda treatment there comes a caution - use in moderate quantity, else you may face some adverse effects.
And what I love from these practices is that, the boy is also learning in this process and he does not like English Medicines as well - they don't provide a solution, just a temporary remedy. Using naturopathy and homeopathy has fixed some of his health issues, strengthening his belief further - more to come on that...

I really love my Berserk manga collection.
They are my favorite fantasy story ever created. I also really like my painting that is showing a character from Berserk:
Another item precious to me is my own unfinished fantasy story. I started writing it back in my studying years. Now I came up with idea to turn it into my own manga. So if I had to keep only a few things I would pick those items.
It is extremely sad to hear that the Covid-19 pandemic is raising its head again. Following proper health policies is a must to protect yourself from this pandemic. Having an old Ayurvedic medicine book with you is very important in today's times because natural medicines contribute more to disease prevention than Western medicines. Although many of the medicinal plants that were available in the past are now difficult to find, it is fortunate that we still have the natural ingredients we need around us.
They do wonders, couple of doses, and I am back into action, no side effects, fully energetic. Last time even many people explored the path of natural medicine and got cured.
Wow Sanjeev I really enjoyed reading your blog 🙌 The way you have combined your minimalistic lifestyle with Ayurvedic knowledge is really inspiring and the way you have taken care of your health and that of your family by using the patterns of Parijat is a beautiful example of a natural life.
Hello, I share your approach to health, as I also believe that there is great benefit in natural remedies which have been used for centuries. I wish other family members of mine had come to this same conclusion sooner, but some have opened their minds since the last covid time. I live in Viet Nam now, and they also have night-blooming jasmine here, however, it looks like a small plant with white flowers. I wonder if it is the same or not?
Yes it must be the same.
Cool, I will try its leaves in a tea next time I feel sick. Thank you for sharing!
We don't have this plant here, it's too cold but I am aware of plants with good properties, spirulina algae and echinacea are good too
Here no one bothers anymore about covid and tracking, if you get it you get it and that's it
Same here, people no longer panic and that's a good sign. I believe last time majority died because of fear.
One thing I know is that there is nothing as good as a natural remedy
Please, make sure you protect yourself and everyone around you does the same so you won’t be victims of Covid
Wish you well!
Here in The Philippines, monkeypox has been in the news. Safety for everyone. 🙏
What!
It’s so sad to hear that Covid is coming back. I just hope that everyone stays safe and we practice protective measures
I know a lot of people probably won't like this, but one of my most valuable possessions is my phone. It serves so many purposes for me at a relatively small cost. It's a book, a movie theater, a tv, a radio, a newspaper, a computer, a phone, a camera, etc... I could manage without a lot of things in my life, but not having my smartphone would be difficult.
Natural medicine is still the one that gets the best results without unpleasant side effects.
For these flu symptoms, I use a spoonful of honey and mix in pieces of garlic. I add it all at once. It's strong. It's a bomb. But it works effectively.
I will try to read much more about Naturopathy and why not download those books in my native language so I can also protect my health and that of my family in the best way possible while also doing it naturally.
I can't imagine us facing another issue of COVID pandemic as the one that happens few years ago. This actually needs to be looked into before it gets out of hands
Let's hope that's not the case, my friend, and there's a new outbreak of COVID-19 in your country or anywhere else. Natural remedies are much better than those manufactured by pharmaceutical companies.

I am not aware COVID-19 is still rising there. Here people are not testing anymore. With the symptoms, they assume it's just normal flu.

Keep safe! I can't hear from the news that COVID-19 is surging here. I hope not.
A natural remedy is always and will always be the best possible solution to take care of our body and protect it against the viral diseases that threaten us in our daily lives.
