The tennis court within the 6 inches between your ears

Martina Navratilova, a legend in the world of tennis, gave away a gem of advice that extended beyond the court. When asked how she maintained her focus, physique, and sharp game even at the age of 43, Navratilova just replied, “The ball doesn’t know how old I am.” This response revealed a timeless truth: every game in life is played on a six-inch ground – the space between our two ears.Navratilova’s statement underscores the importance of the right mindset in achieving and sustaining excellence. The external challenges we face, whether in sports, career, or personal life, are secondary to the internal battles we wage within ourselves. The true test is in the mind, where focus, resilience, and a positive attitude determine our success.Maintaining focus, regardless of age or circumstance, requires mental discipline. Navratilova’s enduring career, marked by an impressive record of 59 Grand Slam titles, reflects her mental toughness, discipline and a winner’s mindset. Her longevity in a physically demanding sport illustrates that with the right mindset, we can defy societal expectations and overcome any obstacle.The phrase “the ball doesn’t know how old I am” speaks to the irrelevance of external limitations. Her story teaches us how passion, commitment, and mental clarity overrule conventional expectations. It teaches us that embracing mindfulness and presence allows us to perform optimally, regardless of external conditions.Do you know somebody who can use a good motivation boost?

Don’t Worry, Be Healthy!

Bobby McFerrin released a song called “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” in 1988. This song went on to become one of the biggest hits, and humming this always filled me with lot of joy and happiness. Little did I know that those feelings also contributed to great health!

Now, we do know today that your emotional and mental state does affect your health. Indeed, we hear many people say that happiness is the key to good health.

EVE WONDERED WHY THESE EMOTIONS ARE CONNECTED TO YOUR HEALTH?

To start with, let me tell you that there are various perspectives and beliefs to emotions impacting your health.

Let’s see what western medical science has to say about it.

Multiple studies carried out by physicians suggest that mental disturbance can have physical effects.

Mental Health Foundation believes that mental disturbance can slow down your body’s working mechanism.

• • It can lead to various short-term diseases.
  • Induce other chronic diseases leaving your system exposed to other bacteria and viruses.
  • In extreme condition, it can end up being a cause for Insomnia.

While, western medical science believes that your physical and mental health is not separate, let’s see what Theosophy has to say about it.

According to Theosophy, the etheric double or widely referred as ‘Health Aura’ plays a vital role in protecting your body from negative and harmful energy from the surrounding.  Health Aura literally means an atmosphere around your physical body meant to protect you and keep you healthy.

WHAT IS YOUR HEALTH AURA COMPOSED OF?

Atoms in the etheric body that have lost Prana become like any other atom. Some of them are absorbed by the body and enter into various combinations while others which are not required are forced out of the body in the form of etheric discharges.

These discharges are expelled out in all directions in straight lines. They are at a right angle to the surface of the body.

This expulsion along with excess Prana forms your health aura.

As long as the lines remain straight and firm the body is entirely protected from the attack of harmful energy and vibrations.

It is because of these discharges, expelled in straight lines, perpendicular to the body, does the aura appear to have a striated effect.

The image below illustrates how these discharges look around our physical body.

These straight lines repel all kinds of negative energies and vibrations that are trying to enter your body. The unhealthy incomings bounce back as they come in contact with these discharges.  Along with these particles, unused Prana or excess amount of Prana is also expelled out from the body.

To know more about assimilation and discharge or Prana, you can refer our online course below.

Moving on,

WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR HEALTH AURA WHEN YOU FEEL LOW OR SAD?

The health aura can be affected by our emotions.

A feeling of depression or sadness leads to the drooping of these striations and a person tends to become more susceptible to diseases.

In such a case, your body is in great need of Prana. So, it uses up a greater amount of Prana-charged atoms, consequently resulting in serious loss of the quantity radiated. The health aura lines thus become weak and start to wilt. This allows negative energies to enter the body and make you sick.

On the contrary,

Did you know that you can also be a source of health for others around you?

Let’s see how.

If you are someone with great Physical and Mental health, your body contains more than necessary Prana-charged atoms. Your Spleen Chakra being the source of Prana in your body becomes so efficient in its working that it absorbs excess amount of Prana. The body then expels these Prana-charged atoms making it a source of strength for people around you. They literally act as a sponge and absorb Prana emitted out of your body.

Interestingly, some people can also drain your useful amount of Prana making you feel weak.

HOW CAN YOU KEEP YOUR HEALTH AURA INTACT?

In addition to all these facts, your mental-emotional state has a large bearing on your well-being. This is because when you think / believe yourself to be unwell; you end up creating a thought form to that effect, which can eventually lead you to becoming sick.

WHAT CAN YOU DO TO ENSURE GOOD HEALTH?

Fortunately, there aren’t many secrets to great health. A good, healthy diet, the right exercise, fresh air, meditation and time with loved ones ensures that most diseases will stay at bay.

WHICH IS THE BEST MEDITATION FOR ME?

I personally prefer Meditation on Twin Hearts. 

Master Choa Kok Sui says, “Practicing the Meditation on Twin Hearts is like taking a Spiritual Shower. When your aura is clean, you experience a Higher Level of awareness and you see through things more clearly.”

According to World Pranic Healing website, Twin heart meditation can:

• • Reduce stress, anxiety and depression
  • Results in improved health
  • Keeps your mind sharp and induces happiness.
