HATI-HATI DENGAN KATA-KATA

Hidup kita ni bergantung kepada apa yang kita niatkan....  Namun impak besar apabila apa yang kita katakan merupakan DOA yang amat mustajab.  Oleh itu berhati-hati apabila mengeluarkan kata-kata.

Best quality time spent with my precious pair @ wangsa walk watching movie together...

I am a woman with few words....  This is one of my way to express my appreciation and care...  just like going out with my best friends ever..  How about you?

Fenugreek Seeds (Biji Halba)

Biji  halba biasanya digunakan dalam serbuk kari, jeruk, sup dan ramuan rempah ratus masakan India.  Rasanya amat memberi kesan kepada keseluruhan sajian jadi dengan sedikit saja pengubahsuaian iaitu dengan merendang biji halba sebelum digiling dapat menghilangkan rasa pahit hidangan yang menggunakan halba ini. 

Fenugreek seeds are small light brown bitter tasting seeds used in certain curry powders, pickles, soups and Indian spice pastes. They can easily overpower a dish so use in moderation, I find roasting or dry-frying the seeds prior to grinding helps remove some of the bitterness and, when used carefully can give a dish a warm, earthy taste. The seeds can also be tempered whole in hot oil, particularly for Indian fish curries where the fresh or dried leaves are also used. Use a heavy pestle and mortar or robust coffee/spice grinder, as the seeds are particularly hard.

Apa pendapat anda????

A NEEDLE CAN SAVE THE LIFE of a STROKE PATIENT

Keep a syringe or needle in your home to do this... It's amazing and unconventional way of recovering from stroke. Read it through as it may/can help somebody 1 day.This is amazing, if it works.  Please keep this very handy... Excellent tips. Do take a minute to read this. You'll never know. Someone's life may depend on you. My father was parallysed and later died from the result of a stroke. I wish I knew about this first aid before.

When stroke strikes, the capillaries in the brain will gradually burst.When a stroke occurs, stay calm. No matter where the victim is, Do not move him/her.Because, if moved, the capillaries will burst. Help the victim tosit up where he is to prevent him from falling over again,and then the blood letting can begin. If you have in your home an injection syringe, thatwould be the best, otherwise, a sewing needle or a straight pin will do.

Place the needle/pin over fire to sterilize it, and then use it to prickthe tip of all 10 fingers. There are no specific acupuncture points, justprick about anmm from the fingernail. Prick till blood comes out. If blood does not startto drip, then squeeze with your fingers. When all 10 digits are bleeding,wait a few minutes then the victim will regain consciousness .

If the victim's mouth is crooked, then pull on his ears until they are red.  Then prick each ear lobe twice until two drops of blood comes from each ear lobe. After a few minutes the victim should regain 

consciousness.  Wait till the victim regain his normal state without any abnormal symptoms then take him to the hospital, otherwise, if he was taken in the ambulance i n a hurry to the hospital, the bumpy trip will cause all the capillaries in his brain to burst. If he could save his life, barelymanaging to walk, then it is by the grace of his ancestors learned about letting blood to save life from Chinese traditional doctor Ha Bu-Ting who lives inSun-Juke.

Furthermore, I had practical experience with it. Therefore I can say thismethod is 100% effective. In 1979, I was teaching in Fung-Gaap College in Tai-Chung. One afternoon I was teaching class when another teacher camerunning to my class room and said in panting, "Mr. Liu, comequick, our supervisor has had a stroke!" I immediately went to the 3rd floor. When I saw our supervisor, Mr.Chen Fu-Tien , his color was off, his

speech was slurred, his mouth was crooked-all the >symptoms of a stroke.

I immediately asked one of the undergraduate students to go to the pharmacy outside the school to buy a syringe, which I used to prick Mr.Chen's 10fingers tips. When all 10 fingers were bleeding (each with a pea-sized drop off blood), after a few minutes, Mr. Chen's face regained its colour and his eyes' spirit returned, too. But his mouth was still crooked. So I pulled on his ears to fill them with blood. When his ears became red, I pricked his right earlobe twice to let out 2 drops of blood. When bothearlobes had two drops of blood each, a miracle happened. Within 3-5minutes the shape of his mouth returned to normal and his speech became clear. We let him rest for a while and have a cup of hot tea, then we helped him godown the stairs, drove him to Wei-Wah Hospi tal . He rested one night andwas released the next day to return to school to teach.

Everything worked normally. There were no ill after-effects. On the otherhand, the usual stroke victim usually suffers irreparable bursting of thebrain capillaries on the way to the hospital. As a result, these victimsnever recover. Therefore stroke is the second cause of death. The luckyones will stayalive but can remain parallyzed for life. It is such a horrible thing tohappen in one's life.If we can all remember this blood letting method and start the life-savingprocess immediately, in a short time, the victim will be revived and regain100% normality. We hope you can tell others about this firs t aid method.

By doing so, stroke may be removed from the list of major causes of death.

Post this after reading. It will be a good deed indeed. The greatest risk is not taking one... Make a difference!!!*

(The above article was forwarded to me by someone who cares enough.Please do read carefully and remember the technique. We can never tell...,but it sure can make a difference to the life of a >victim and his/her family if we happen to chance upon such a situationand know how to stay calm and do something.)

Comments: Prick a stroke victim's fingertips, squeeze them till they bleed, yank on their ear lobes, then start pricking those, too? This sounds more like torture than a proper medical treatment! Once upon a time -- and this is going back 100 years or more, mind you -- bloodletting was thought to be an appropriate treatment for stroke (or "apoplexy," as it was then called). Now we know better; or at least we ought to.
According to About.com's stroke expert, Dr. Jose Vega, this message was clearly authored by someone with no real medical knowledge and shouldn't be taken seriously. Following the instructions above, in fact, might do more harm than good.
"The email conveys multiple unfounded ideas about stroke," Vega writes, "but by far the most dangerous one of all is the suggestion that people should not be taken to a hospital until all their symptoms are resolved, on the grounds that 'all the capillaries in the brain will burst on the way to the hospital.' This statement is untrue and totally irresponsible."

Some of the simple exercise for Brain Gymn

Gossiping!

"O ye who believe! Avoid suspicion as much (as possible): for suspicion in some cases is a sin: And spy not on each other behind their backs. Would any of you like to eat the flesh of his dead brother? Nay, ye would abhor it...But fear Allah. For Allah is Oft-Returning, Most Merciful. 

"Wahai orang-orang yang beriman! Jauhilah kebanyakan dari sangkaan (supaya kamu tidak menyangka sangkaan yang dilarang) kerana sesungguhnya sebahagian dari sangkaan itu adalah dosa dan janganlah kamu mengintip atau mencari-cari kesalahan dan keaiban orang dan janganlah setengah kamu mengumpat setengahnya yang lain. Adakah seseorang dari kamu suka memakan daging saudaranya yang telah mati? (Jika demikian keadaan mengumpat) maka sudah tentu kamu jijik kepadanya. (Oleh itu, patuhilah larangan-larangan yang tersebut) dan bertakwalah kamu kepada Allah; sesungguhnya Allah Penerima taubat, lagi Maha mengasihani.

~Surah Al-Hujurat:12

Brain Gymn Exercise

“I have seen miraculous improvement in both children and adults who have used Brain Gym.”

– Cecilia Koester

Have You Heard of Brain Gym?

Brain Gym is a system that uses simple movements to stimulate brain function. That is, it uses quick, easy-to-do developmental movements to wake up the brain without stress or injury. Children naturally explore these movements as they grow and mature. 

However, under tension, children learn to rely too much on one cerebral hemisphere of the brain alone, instead of two sides together, placing unnecessary and stressful demands upon the whole physiology. Educator Paul E. Dennison, Ph.D., a pioneer in the field of learning through movement and the creator of the Brain Gym program calls this the "switched off" state. 

Children who have special needs "switch off" more frequently than the average child. Perhaps the stress from neurological damage or simply a more sensitive nervous system creates a need for movements, such as Brain Gym, as well as skills of coordination. The intention behind the Brain Gym is to stimulate the brain so that the child has equal access to all dimensions of the brain. The Brain Gym activities address three specific dimensions of physical movement that correlate with three areas of the brain. 

Each dimension is described by a key word or function and by viewing postural and behavioral correlates. This means that by observing the child’s behavior or how he/she holds his/her body in space, we are lead to the appropriate Brain Gym movements and activities. Other information that would lead to knowledge about which Brain Gym movements or which activities to choose can be gathered by observing or noticing neurological soft signs. These can be eye or head movements, hand or foot movements. Also, if the child is able to move his/her shoulders and simultaneously move the hips, or, if the child can move in a contra lateral way, though uses only one side of the body at a time, then we are able to gather information about the neurological system. They are called "soft signs" because there is no hard evidence from an EEG or a CAT scan; rather we are relying on the cues from the body to surmise how the neurological system is responding.

Did You Thank Allah for Your Eyesight?

A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said: "I am blind, please help." There were only a few coins in the hat.

A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.

Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, "Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?"

The man said, "I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way."

What he had written was: "Today is a beautiful day and I cannot see it."

Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing?

Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply said the boy was blind. The second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind. Should we be surprised that the second sign was more effective?

"It is He, Who has created for you (the sense of) hearing (ears), sight (eyes), and hearts (understanding). Little thanks you give."

 "Dan Dialah jua yang mengadakan bagi kamu pendengaran dan penglihatan serta hati (untuk kamu bersyukur; tetapi) amatlah sedikit kamu bersyukur"

~Surah Al-Mu'minun: 78

What is Brain Gymn

Brain Gym was developed in the 1970s by the Dennisons,  educators that describe human brain function in terms of three dimensions: 

1. laterality, 
2. focus, and 
3. centering.  

According to their theory, stress inhibits neural connections in the brain with respect to the three spatial axises, and the Brain Gym movements stimulate a flow of information along these networks.

Brain Gym is based on four concepts:

1. Physical movement stimulates the brain. The 23 Brain Gym movements are designed to activate such functions as communication, comprehension, memory and organization.
2. Stress inhibits learning. Brain Gym movements encourage the learner to use the whole brain, thereby relaxing the fight or flight response in favor of keeping the memory and reasoning centers of the brainswitched on.
3. Brain Gym movements release learning blocks by activating the whole mind-body system.
4. Noticing becomes a personal feedback loop. The learner takes responsibility and control of his own learning by noticing what works and what doesn't as a particular skill is being mastered. The learner can enhance noticing with Brain Gym movements to improve performance, thus increasing self-esteem.
