Don't you wish the Delhi NCR sky was as blue as this?

With Delhi pollution reaching an all time worse levels and respiratory diseases on the rise because of that, it's high time we took our lung health in our own hands. Some things are way beyond our control why some are. So while it's impossible to stop the smog from poisoning the environment, what we can do is that we can take care of our health definitely.


  • Always use an N 99 mask while stepping out of the house.
  • Include as many greens as possible in your diet.
  • Don't let kids play outdoors.
  • Keep all doors and windows closed.
  • Consume Nature Sure Lungs pure to combat the bad effects of pollution and keep lungs healthy.

It may be a surprise to many that indoor air can be more polluted than the air outside! Upto five times to be precise! Yes, we think of outdoor pollution only but indoor air can be even more harmful! According to WHO, India has around 13 of the 20 most polluted cities in the whole world. And we are not talking about smoke and dust only. Imagine if we are breathing toxins so much outside, what is the indoor situation? Its kind of that we have blindfolded ourselves and have been completely ignoring it.


So what causes indoor air pollution?
Fumes from paints toxic chemicals from furnitures, chemicals emitted from various household chemical agents and lots of other things like carbon monoxide from chimneys, pet danders, floor cleaners, etc etc.
What are the hazards?

Chemicals like formaldehyde and the fumes emitted from cleaning agents are known carcinogens. 
 while inhaling fomites gives rise to asthma and several other respiratory and allergic disease.



We come back to home thinking that its a retreat from the outside noise, chaos and of course dust and dirt. But as I have stated earlier, this is just a myth as our home is not a healthy retreat if we don't purify it! So how can we combat air pollution?

Consume Nature Sure Lungs Pure. What does it do?

  • Purifies and detoxes lungs, heals tissue damage due to pollution, soothes chest muscles
  • Provides relief from smoker's cough
  • Makes lungs healthy and strong, increases oxygen supply, removes excess mucus, aids breathing
  • Beneficial in cold, cough, tonsils, sore throat and bronchial disorders
  • Assured quality from nature sure, trusted globally for its products made with 100 percent pure and top-grade ingredients at gmp- and iso-certified units approved by dte of AYUSH.
How to take?

Pop one capsule daily.


Indoor plants: It has been proven scientifically that snake plants, aloe vera, spider plants, Peace Lily, Dracaena, Boston Fern, Bamboo Palm are some of the plants that fight chemicals like formaldehyde, benzene, tricholoroethylene, xylene etc. 


Oodles of sunlight: Its an age old system of disinfection. Strong sunlight kills the toughest of bacteria, fungi and other microbes and its a time tested practice. Thankfully in India we have sunlight galore and we should exploit it to the best. So every morning remove the curtains and open your doors and windows to let the sun in. What if your home does not receive sunlight? Too sad. Then ocassionally put all your mattresses, upholstered things and pillows out in the sun for disinfection. This may be on the terrace or out in the garden.


Vacuum clean regularly: Sadly we Indians have yet to become accustomed to this cleaning habit. We are used to sweeping and mopping which is ultimately recirculation of dust and fomites inside the home. Every thing in our house like the sofa, carpets, corners, curtains etc need to be vacuum cleaned at least once a week! 



Air Purifier: The last method. There are two types of air purifiers in the market: Natural and Electric. Installing electric air purifiers in every room of the house may not be a very lucrative solution but here comes the role of Lungs pure.
I have always been a fan of natural methods so I keep myself healthy with Lungs Pure. It's available on naturessure.com .

Price: 896 INR for a pack of 60 capsules.

It rarely happens that I get to witness motivational journeys by self made men. And when it happens, I make sure that I don't miss it. Last Saturday was indeed eventful because I learnt the journey of Mr Ashwani Kumar Prithviwasi, an eminent artist and the founder of Delhi Collage of Art.
A grand retrospective show was organized at Delhi Collage of Art , Rajouri Garden.On his path, Mr Ashwani came across a lot of struggles but he also cherished moments of success. While talking about his journey Ashwani said, in 1996 there were only five institutes of fine arts, two government, two semi government and one private. At that time many people who wished to learn arts didn't get an opportunity to pursue their interests. Some were occupied in jobs while others had age limitations.

At that time on 17th August 1996 a new institute was launched with the initial name of Ashu Rangshala with just a single student in Uttam Nagar, Delhi. He conducted classes on the terrace of his home, the walls of which he beautifully spray painted to give it a more 'Artsy' look. Gradually the numbers started increasing. He took the help of a couple of his friends who stood by him through thick and thin in managing the students but handled everything himself mainly. He organised art exhibition in the local markets even in those times.
Mr Ashwani did a lot of efforts to make people aware of the immense possibilities in fine arts. In 2001 this institute transformed in to a professional one. Regular courses were prepared and admission dates were finalized. Afterwards, academic calendar for activities like Annual event, tours of art galleries, interaction with renowned artists, visit to their studios and outdoor classes, all became a part of the curriculum.
Mr Ashwani told that he didn't consider the age of his students at the time of enrolment and maximum knowledge was imparted in the initial year of the course. Because he believed that art should be open to everyone. Creativity should not be limited to anything. 12th pass students could join any of his courses. For working people, all classes used to be organised on Sundays which was quite different from other institutes. Mr Ashwani himself had been enrolled for Art courses for 12 years and had garnered a vast experience. He started studying formal courses from 1990. His journey started after doing BFA course from College Of Art.
The alumni of this institute are doing well these days. 7000 students have passed out from here till date which includes people from forty countries. Some are running their own art institutes while some others are freelance artists. As of now, Delhi Collage of Art has many branches. This institute got its present name in 2001 which is inspired from the collage of Picasso. This institute gives equal opportunity to well off as well as poor students. Almost 100 poor students have been taught free over here and they are doing well today.
This has happened for the first time In India that a private institute organised a foreign tour for its students. Almost forty students were sent to Paris and they got to see the beauty of Monalisa. Students also got opportunity to visit Rome and Milan in Italy for better exposure. This is an annual affair. Annual Tours to biggest museums of the country also started which include tour of Rajasthan, Ajanta Ellora, Khajuraho and Sanchi Stupa. Most of the art exhibitions of this institute are organised in Lalit Kala Academy. Annual fest are organised at FICCI, Sai and Kamani auditorium. For the first time in history, this institute has awarded BC Sanyal Award and Lifetime achievement award to renowned artists like M. F. Hussain, Krishna Khanna, Manjeet Bawa, Ram Sutar, Jatin Das, Anjolie Ela Menon, Anupam Sood and Niren Sen. This institute has felicitated sixty artists. No other institute had been able to achieve this feat. Ashwani hiself is a renowned artist. In 1999 an exhibition of Ashwani’s mirror paintings was organised in Gurgaon. It was the first time in the history that mirror paintings were exhibited.
 I was just floored how Mr Ashwani Kumar Prithviwasi had come such a long way in the field of art. From being an artist to an art teacher to only a few students and then establishing Delhi Collage of Art which has now become a very big name in the art industry, this self made man is an inspiration I look up to. His Scratch, Struggle, Succeed mantra is something we all should imbibe.

There’s little doubt that Australia is one of the best destinations for travelers. This, after all, is a country that offers a little something for everyone, and the lifestyle alone is something of a dream. Who doesn’t like spending time in the sun, or going to the beach, or eating delicious
BBQ food?! But of course, as with any huge and relatively remote destination (and Australia is,
for sure, huge and remote), you’ll need to know a few tips to make the most of your trip. We
take a look at a few essential tips below.

The Length of Time

We’ve already mentioned that Australia is huge and remote. As such, you’ll want to look at
going for an extended period of time. This is not a place just to visit for a few days! The flight getting there could be as long as a day, after all. Most people that make a trip to the Land Down
Under do so for several weeks. That’ll give you enough time to comfortably get over ay jet lag
that you experience, explore all the different regions, or fully soak up the atmosphere of the
country. Perfect!

When to Go

It’s important to remember that, since Australia is located in the Southern Hemisphere, the seasons occur at the opposite times of year that they do in more Northern parts of the world. So when’s the best time to visit? Well, it depends on what you like. If you’re going to be touring thee ntire country during your trip, then it’s best to go before Christmas, which is their springtime.
You’ll find that the temperatures are agreeable more or less across the whole country. If you’re
just sticking to South Australia, then you don’t need to really worry about when you go, unlessy ou’re looking for extra warm temperatures. Things stay pleasant all year round and don’t even get all that hot during summer either.

Do Your Research

You’ll need to do your research for your trip to Australia even if you’re going for a month. We
really can’t overstate just how big this place is! Even if you have a month, you’ll still need to be
efficient with your time. Before you go, take a look at what’s on offer, and pick a few key areast hat you want to visit. Once you’ve figured that out, you can go even deeper into your research.
You should take a look at a travel itinerary for Perth, Sydney, and Melbourne so that you can
make the best use of your time while in the cities. You won’t be able to do everything during your first trip, but you can always go back!

Diverse Landscapes

Finally, make sure you’re exploring some off the beaten path parts of the country too. There arep lenty of diverse landscapes waiting to be explored, and you’ll be missing out if you don’t visit some of the National Parks. Don’t just stick to the cities -- get out there and see the real
Australia!
