Spiritual symbols are everywhere. From the Bodhi tree leaf to the dreamcatcher next to your bed, they all symbolize something. 

Although we have largely forgotten their importance in today’s life, they can still make a strong psychological impression on our minds. 
One of the biggest challenges we face is figuring out exactly what we want to do with our lives.

For some of us, our purpose and passion are obvious and clear. We are born with a set of talents and through persistent practice, we develop our skills. For others, it is not so easy to identify a passion. 

You may even have asked yourself at one point in your life: “What should I do with my life?” “What is my passion?” or “What is the purpose of my life?”

Many seem to believe that purpose stems from the special gifts that set you apart from others, but that’s only part of the truth. It also arises from our connection to the environment, so a crisis of purpose is often a symptom of isolation.

Once you find your way, you will almost certainly find other people traveling with you, hoping to reach the same destination: a community.

•  Sit comfortably with your back straight
• Tune in to receive the message and ask yourself an internal question about your life purpose
• Look closely at the image and intuitively select the one that answers your question
• Read the interpretation of your Purpose.

Do not forget that the meaning of your Destiny is not what you can receive from the world, but what you can share with the world.

Symbol # 1

You know how to work with things better than others, to give order and system. You are extremely disciplined, responsible, and hardworking.

Your main gift is the strength of mind and will, which cannot fail to bring positive results both in material and spiritual aspects.

In the material world, you are an excellent organizer and leader, in the spiritual world, you are an ascetic and a practitioner.

In a negative manifestation, you run the risk of falling into the condemnation and rejection of those who do not have such a strong will and desire for order. Therefore, your karmic task is to help people face difficulties and overcome obstacles.

Purpose: Any situation is not only the result of individual will and discipline but also an example of divine wisdom and order. Everything in the world is natural and in its place, even if at first glance it seems chaotic.

Learning to see and be aware of the divine order in everything, and also promoting that order is your destiny.

Symbol # 2

Your gift is a great creative and creative force. You are a leader, people are attracted to your light and energy. Your authority is so natural that you don’t need to conquer it specifically.

Most likely, they will recognize you as a leader or representative of the power structures. Such a gift in a negative manifestation can lead to pride and selfishness, and can sometimes manifest as low self-esteem and resentment due to endless dissatisfaction with the situation.

Therefore, among the karmic tasks is the education of modesty, acceptance, work with pride.

Purpose: Your authority and power must contribute to the realization of divine love and harmony in the world. Fame and power in themselves mean nothing, and light always coexists with a shadow, in which there is no less meaning and beauty.

It is important to realize and accept the inner shadow, to establish a balance of opposites.

Symbol # 3

You are an inventor and innovator. Everything new and unusual in the world is the work of people like you. In a negative manifestation, this gift can be transformed into uncertainty, doubt, and denial of tradition.

Creating something fundamentally new presupposes an awareness of the total freedom of choice and action that everyone is endowed with, but not everyone is willing to use this freedom.

Only by realizing this freedom at each stage of our journey can we gain wisdom and knowledge that will open up new horizons for us.

Purpose: Divine freedom means freeing yourself from the conventions of the mind, listening to your Heart, intuitive knowledge, which is only possible in the Divine Current.

By feeling and realizing the Divine flow, you can create something truly great, fundamentally new, and necessary for the world.

Accept the challenge with thousands of people around the globe and get your body in great shape.

Plank is one of the most effective exercises to strengthen the central part (core) of the body. Beginners often seem to think that this exercise is simple that they sometimes skip it.

Plank will melt more fat deposits than sit-ups and it will strengthen internal and external muscles of the back and the core. It will also strengthen the muscles of the buttocks, arms and legs.
The Plank Challenge is designed to be completed in four weeks, gradually increased while time passes by. The first step of the challenge is holding the plank position 20 seconds, and the final goal is to achieve four minutes non-paused plank. Eventually, your muscle mass will be emphasized and your body will be ready for bigger challenges.

Correct plank position

The results of the challenge depend on the way you do this exercise. When you lift yourself on elbows and lean on your toes, it is essential for the upper body to be in a straight line.

Control your body to remain in the correct position, and the neck and head to be in the extension of the back with taking a deep breath and with the help of abdominal muscles. Distribute the weight on your elbows and your feet so that you can strain the glutes in addition to enhance the balance.

Plank is a demanding exercise and you will feel it within the first twenty seconds. Everyone who has struggles with this challenge or desires to work only on specific parts of the body intends to do different kinds of challenges. The principle is similar, except that instead of planking, you increase the reps of sit-ups or crunches.

There are several explanations for our weight gain. Stress, poor eating habits, insufficient sleep, excessive sedentary lifestyles, toxins from the environment, and hormone abnormalities can all contribute to this. It can be difficult to lose that stubborn belly fat, for whatever reason. Take a look at this weight loss tip for mornings.

Make this first thing in the morning before eating. Drink a full, 20 ounce glass of water. Drink it over the course of 5 or 10 minutes. After that, I take this homemade weight loss elixir. Try to use real ingredients if possible instead of the their processed counterparts.

Ingredients:
– 1 cup room temperature water

– Juice 1 lemon (I use a hand press from Crate & Barrel)
– 1 teaspoon Bragg’s raw apple cider vinegar
– 1 teaspoon raw honey OR a couple drops of stevia
– 1/2 inch of fresh ginger root or 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
(Use stevia if you are on yeast cleansing or low sugar diet)

NOTE:

If you feel ill or have chest tightness after drinking the morning lemon elixir, cut out the Bragg’s raw apple cider vinegar. This reaction can occur from the body’s releasing of bacteria and unwanted toxins. Continue to drink the lemon elixir, omitting the Bragg’s, for at least three days, and then try to re-introduce or use only ½ teaspoon of the apple cider vinegar. If the reactions continue upon reintroduction, continue to only drink the lemon water.

The study published in the British Medical Journal revealed its findings that show a link between heart diseases and a health condition known as xanthelasma (xanthelasma palpebrarum). This condition appears as a sharply demarcated yellowish deposit of fat underneath the skin, usually on or around the eyelids. These yellow formations occur in the upper or lower eyelid near the inner corner of the eye.

The connection between heart disease and xanthelasma

Both sexes, and especially after 40, can suffer from this condition. These yellow growths are the result of cholesterol deposits and indicate a higher level of cholesterol in almost half of the patients affected with this condition.

People with xanthelasma usually seek medical help because these growths are unattractive, otherwise, they are soft and painless and do not affect vision.

In fact, without considering them as a warning of a more serious condition, and despite their re-emergence after removal, people most often decide to remove these yellowish growths because their appearance is far from pleasing to the eye.

Scientific evidence

The link between heart disease and xanthelasma has been scientifically confirmed by a recent Danish research. The professor who led the team, Mr. Tibjaerg Hansen came to conclusions that will alter the way we see these seemingly harmless growths, which are ignored as irrelevant by both patients and doctors.

Women with xanthelasma have an 8% higher risk of heart attack, as opposed to those who are not affected by this phenomenon. It has been proved that women have a lower risk of heart disease than men. Moreover, researchers in this study explained that xanthelasma allows accurate prediction of heart disease in this particular group of patients.

On the other hand, it has been proven that men are more prone to heart disease. Men affected with xanthelasma are at a 12% higher risk of heart attack, and men aged 70-79 are at an even higher risk.

This research discovered that the presence of xanthelasma cases in each age group indicates an increased probability of heart disease, heart attack and death. Both men and women who have these yellow growths on their eyelids are likely to experience a heart attack, and in 10- year period, they may even be life- threatened.

The research concluded that xanthelasma, independent of other factors such as high cholesterol, obesity, smoking and high blood pressure, may indicate a severe atherosclerosis, heart attack, heart disease and death.

So, in case you notice that these yellow growths appear on your eyelids, it is highly advisable that you immediately check your cholesterol levels.

Some change the way we see the world around us and others can reveal hidden aspects of our personalities.

This clever illusion can tell if you’re always running late or if you’re on the hunt for true love – but it all depends on what image you spot first.

The snap was shared on TikTok by Charles Meriot and shows an apple core with two faces either side of it.

But did you see the apple or the faces first?

According to Charles they both mean very different things.

It turns out, if you spotted the apple core first you’re the very definition of fun.

Not only that, but “you’re a great friend and always on an adventure, but you’re never on time.”

However, if you’re one of the people who saw the face first it “means you take relationships very seriously.”

In fact if you’re not already in love you might be actively on the hunt for your other half.

Viewers loved the clever illusion and couldn’t believe how accurate it is.

One wrote: “The apple! And yes never on time and always wanting to have fun.”

A second commented: “Yes! Literally late to everything.”

Sadly, heart attacks are one of the most common injuries in the nation. It has been reported that your body will give warnings signs of a heart attack up to six months before it occurs. Have you experienced any of these symptoms? If so, you may need to schedule an appointment with your health care provider.

In the United States, heart disease is the leading cause of death. It can cause a variety of ailments that affect your heart. Some of these conditions include coronary artery disease, arrhythmia, and congenital heart defects.

You can improve your heart health by improving your diet, exercising, taking iron supplements, and increasing your omega-3 fatty acid intake through food sources or supplements. Meanwhile, watch for the following warning symptoms that your body may be prone to a heart attack.

SIGNS OF A HEART ATTACK

A heart attack can occur when the flow of blood and oxygen to a section of the heart becomes blocked. The heart muscle begins to die from the lack of oxygen. If the blood flow isn’t quickly restored, that area of the heart can die. If medical intervention does not immediately occur, the entire heart can die, leading, of course, to death.

HERE ARE SIX WARNING SIGNS TO WATCH FOR IF YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF HAVING A HEART ATTACK.

1. EXTREME FATIGUE

One early sign of a heart attack is extreme fatigue. Of course, fatigue is a normal feeling after engaging in physical activities or experiencing a long day. However, if you are constantly feeling fatigued and tired, you may need to schedule a check-up with your doctor to monitor the health of your heart.

It is not natural to get enough sleep, eat well, and not exhaust yourself physically, but still feel exhausted.

2. SLEEP DISTURBANCES

Another warning sign of a heart attack is a disturbance in your sleep habits. Your subconscious mind may be telling you that something is wrong. You may wake frequently, need to use the bathroom frequently during the night, or experience extreme thirst during the night. If you do not have a logical explanation for these sleep disturbances, see your doctor.

3. SHORTNESS OF BREATH

Experiencing shortness of breath can be a key warning sign that you are having heart issues. When your heart does not get enough oxygen, you can feel short of breath.

4. INDIGESTION

Another early warning sign of a heart attack is indigestion. It is not normal to always have a growling stomach. However, certain spicy and irritating foods can normally cause indigestion.

5. INCREASED ANXIETY

See your physician if you experienced increased levels of anxiety that do not have a ready explanation.

6. WEAK OR HEAVY ARMS

When your heart does not receive sufficient oxygen to function, it can send impulses to you spine. When this happens, the nerves that are interconnected between your heart, spine, and arms send impulses that cause pain in your arms. If you experience numbness in your arm, you may be having a heart attack.

Keeping watch for these early warning signs of a heart attack could save your life. Share this information with your loved ones to protect their heart, too!
