Following our last posting on here, we have several times been asked for more information about Ayurveda as it was mentioned we stayed at a treatment centre hotel. What exactly is ayurveda? Is it new? What happens during treatment? So, I thought I would do my best to give you a little more basic information.
Ayurveda is an ancient medical system, which began in India and Sri Lanka thousands of years ago, I believe. It is a holistic system where the whole person is treated, using various methods, - a specific diet which is holistic and mostly Vegan, plus daily full body massages lasting about an hour and a half and using two masseurs and, maybe yoga and meditation sessions, too. Apart from the specified foods and the daily massage, nothing is compulsory.
You first have a consultation with an ayurvedic doctor, who takes your four pulses and decides which ones are good and which ones are out of line. From this they decide what kind of treatment you need (especially if you have told them of any conditions, etc, you personally know about), type of massages, which oils will be used (can be anything from a mineral based one to something flowery or other plant based one). Usually you will have one massage a day, but, sometimes, one in the morning and another in the afternoon, is decided by the ayurvedic doctor and discussed with your masseur.
Meals are taken at usual times with, often, a large selection of various dishes, but all cooked according to ayurveda vegan/vegetarian recipes. Something which I was not looking forward to, but as it turned out, these dishes are actually often quite delicious, nutritious and perfectly filling. The resort we last stayed at served a very good selection of tasty dishes. We lost a little weight (which is not a bad thing!) mainly from around our middles and that has remained gone for the past three months since we got home, we are both pleased to say.
Other than that, if you stay at the kind of centres we stay at, the rest of the day is yours free to relax by a swimming pool, wander along the beach where there is one, go out sightseeing, or, try out yoga and meditation sessions at the centre if you want.
I, personally, would heartily recommend a stay at an ayurveda centre in India, but you must be guided towards the ones which are serious about your treatment and, at the same time, also give you a comfortable and pleasant experience.
We can help you with a visit to a good ayurvedic resort in India, of course - just ask! Put a small group of family and friends together. They'll all thank you, I am sure!

Networking is very much back into our lives and Friday saw us attend a meeting and a chance for Networking at the in Swansea. Organised by #4 theRegion and hosted by the delightful Lydia Fasham, the event was held to introduce the Distillery to those who have not been there before, and it was most enjoyable. Thanks must also go to the very helpful Penderyn staff, especially Bethan and Francesca, who gave us a rapid tour of the premises. But equally as important to us was the chance to consider using the Masterclass room there for a meeting later in the year. This room is just what we at can recommend to our Indian Director who is keen to arrange a small India Roadshow in Wales. This will be the first one since we, as NEI UK Ltd, arranged two many years ago. It should be a superb event to look forward to.

My thanks go to Travel Gossip, and Amanda, who invited Peter and me to a Networking and presentation evening at Swansea.com stadium yeaterday. The evenings they arrange are always a pleasure to attend. They also provide an opportunity to talk with companies we wouldn't normally do. Last night we had an interesting talk with Charlotte of Autos which provided us with food for thought about clients of Wales Beckons who want to have a self drive holiday in Wales. It was also interesting talking with Debbie and Leanne about Inteltravel. Of equal importance was meeting with a friend from Vistara, a relatively new airline based in India,and owned jointly by Singapore Airlines and TATA. Their Sales Manager, Sanjay Maru, was making his first visit to Wales. He was not surprised to hear that Vistara was not known of by any of those attending - except Peter and me, of course - but now they do. Vistara is a well booked airline and does not widely advertise its existence. We were particularly interested to hear that the necessary steps are nearing completion to complete a merger with Air India later this year. More interesting was an indication that the new airline is seeking new destinations and that Cardiff might well be considered. This would be great news for us both from Wales Beckons point of view but also our outbound division NEIUK to... There have never been direct flights to India and for there to be one would greatly affect how to get to and from India. With this being Wales and India year, I hope that the Welsh Government and Cardiff Airport will do what they can to entice Air India to use Cardiff Airport.

Did you know that newborn orangutans have incredibly thin arms and legs? It's fascinating to observe how their muscles gradually develop as they begin to explore and climb trees.

Thanks Karan Waite Worth a read ...
When you are alone and have a heart attack. What are you gonna do then ?
A really good post that can't be shared often enough:
1.
Take a 2 minute break and read this:
Let's say it's 5:25 pm and you're driving home after an unusually hard day's work.
2.
You are really tired and frustrated.
All of a sudden your chest pains. They are starting to radiate in the arm and jaw. It feels like being stabbed in the chest and heart. You're only a few miles away from the nearest hospital or home.
3.
Unfortunately you don't know if you can make it..
4.
Maybe you've taken CPR training, but the person running the course hasn't told you how to help yourself.
5.
How do you survive a heart attack when you're alone when it happens? A person who is feeling weak and whose heart is beating hard has only about 10 seconds before losing consciousness.
6.
But you can help yourself by coughing repeatedly and very strongly! Deep breaths before every cough. Coughing should be repeated every second until you arrive at the hospital or until your heart starts to beat normally.
7.
Deep breathing gives oxygen to your lungs and coughing movements boost the heart and blood circulation. Heart pressure also helps to restore a normal heartbeat. Here's how cardiac arrest victims can make it to the hospital for the right treatment
8.
Cardiologists say if someone gets this message and passes it on to 10 people, we can expect to save at least one life.
9. FOR WOMEN: You should know that women have additional and different symptoms. Rarely have crushing chest pain or pain in the arms. Often have indigestion and tightness across the back at the bra line plus sudden fatigue.
Instead of posting jokes, you're helping save lives by spreading this message.

Great to know!! Maybe it could save your life?
