Online Grocery Shopping

Local Grocery Delivery

Well, it's finally here: we can finally buy our groceries online. What a great concept, right? I'm actually a little surprised it's taken this long for any of the big boys to step up and dominate the market. In fact...are they? Is there a clear leader in the online Local Grocery Delivery market? I don't think so. I think it's still wide open, just waiting for some company to get it right. I won't be mentioning names in this piece, so just use your imagination.

We're very familiar with the major grocery players, but for some reason "big" just doesn't translate to "user-friendly" when referring to ease of shopping. Maybe the demand just isn't there yet, or maybe people actually like going to the store.

Who knows? As far as I'm concerned, I actually don't mind going to the Local Grocery Delivery. I mean, how lazy am I? Having said that, this country is a very busy, fast-paced, competitive place to live, so if I can save an hour going to the store by simply clicking a few products online, I'm all for it. Without a doubt. That's more time to write articles like this and more time to get work done. And more time for my family.

So the question remains, I suppose: from whom do we buy groceries and is the demand there? Is this new trend going to put Local Grocery Delivery as we know them out of business? Or is it just going to force them to deliver? Are third-party dealers going to rule this market or will it remain a function of our local stores? I guess we'll s.

Third, state your price and let it be known - it is time to make your own business card and it is time for you to give away fliers and leaflets around your neighborhood.

Grocery Delivery Service

Hearing other people wretch about their Grocery Delivery Service horror stories might want you to forego this otherwise convenient and time-saving method altogether. Undeniably, online grocery shopping gets you off the highway and out of the grocery aisles. Save yourself from a catastrophic Grocery Delivery Service service by heeding these practical pointers.

First of all, always read the fine print. Before clicking that final button that will seal the deal with a particular delivery service, familiarize yourself with their terms and policies:

· Take careful note of their rules concerning possible grocery delivery problems. What are their possible actions when it comes to unforeseen events like bad weather conditions or a power plant meltdown keeping you from receiving the delivery?

· Make sure you know about any and all possible fees that you might get charged with. Is there a minimum amount to qualify for free grocery delivery or a possible surcharge for going below that?

· Find out their course of action for defective products, expired goods, or out-of-stock items. Will they and when will they send you a replacement?

While online, double-check everything. Remember that unlike a word processor or spreadsheet, online forms don't have an undo button.

· Make sure they have the right address and update it regularly. Even if you've had Grocery Delivery Service before, always check the information they have on file.

· Verify that you want everything on your shopping cart before finalizing the transaction. Observe good shopping habits and budget your money wisely.

· Keep a printout of your paid transaction. This will come in handy as proof of payment and as a checklist for your delivered items

When your Grocery Delivery Service arrives, don't let the delivery person leave just yet. Perform the following tasks before he or she goes.

· Itemize your goods. Using your printout as reference, make sure you received everything you paid for, including any freebies or packages that you signed up for.

· Inspect each one for damage and shelf life. Look for holes, tears and expiration dates that could compromise the quality of your goods.

· Thank your deliver person. There might be policies against tipping but it's always a good idea to establish a good working relationship with the one who transports your basic needs.

Grocery delivery isn't just about ordering online and waiting for your items to appear on your doorstep. It's also about knowing what to do in case of problems and making sure you did your part in ensuring their safe arrival.

Autumn Routine (Sarat Ritucharya) in Ayurveda

Send Bams

Rising early when the world is still and calm brush your teeth with some nourishing tooth powder such as licorice, haritaki and mint Send Bams
.

Hold some warm sesame oil in your mouth for three minutes. It has a wonderfully nourishing effect on the mouth, strengthens the teeth and stops bleeding and receding gums.

A specific autumnal practice is to then rinse your mouth with haritaki water (1 teaspoon of haritaki soaked in warm water overnight). After rinsing you can swallow some of the haritaki, as it is the main rejuvenative for balancing vata and sending apana vata downwards. Apana vata is one of the subtypes of vata that is responsible for moving everything downwards. As wind can aggravate constipation it is a very useful practice for this time of year.

Massage yourself with warm sesame or mahanarayan oil. This can offset the seasonal tendency to dryness, joint cracking, and stiff muscle pain. Wash off in a warm shower. Place a drop of oil in your nostrils and ears to offset the damaging effect of the elements. A special oil called nasya nasal oil is prepared with herbs that protect the nose and ears from infections and can be useful during the autumn.

Start yoga practice with some alternate nostril breathing (Send Bams). The Hathayogapradipika says, 'By proper practice of pranayama all disease are eradicated.... The vayu should be skilfully inhaled, exhaled and retained so that perfection is retained'. (Hathayogapradipika 16, 18). What better time to master the art of breathing than in autumn when there are such high levels of prana in the atmosphere? Nadi s´odhana does what it says; it purifies the channels of toxins, and especially vata-toxins that accumulate from tension and constriction of the channels. We all know that breathing helps us to relax, but it also relaxes the subtle channels that can easily become constricted and tight.

Practise asana that regulate vata and send apana vayu downwards; this especially includes pavanamuktasana (the wind-relieving poses), all inverted poses where the head moves below the waist (as air moves up and inverting ourselves can help apana vayu move down), all twists as this helps to regulate samana vayu in the intestines, slow sun salutation with breaths in each pose and then lots of savasana (corpse pose) for proper grounding.

Apply grounding scents such as vetiver or avata essential oil on the eyebrow centre and throat.

Autumnal diet should consist of warm foods that are sweet, mildly spicy, sour and salty as these are all flavours that increase moisture and encourage feeling nourished and grounded.

Breakfast with a small bowl of porridge of oats, rice or quinoa that can be flavoured with maple syrup and cinnamon.

Take a teaspoon of organic cyavanaprasha in the morning to keep your energy and immunity intact at this time of change. Cyavanapra´sa is a great remedy for reducing vata and maintaining inner strength.

If you are easily destabilised by the changes in the autumn season and can suffer from vataimbalanced symptoms such as insomnia, erratic digestion, constipation and anxiety then the most appropriate ayurvedic remedy is ashwagandha (Withania somnifera). It is great for calming while strengthening, giving energy while also settling the nervous system. It can be taken morning and evening. It is a great herb for enhancing stability and strength in yoga practice as well.

For lunch and/or supper have more nourishing foods such as steamed vegetables, soup or kichadi.

Avoid too much raw salad, cold drinks, ice, beans, fermented foods and yeast in autumn as they cause gas and may destabilise digestion.

Autumn is a common time to perform a seasonal cleanse to prepare for the winter ahead. These recommendations are similar to the sat karma recommendations in the Hathayoga pradipika to clear the phlegm, bile and wind from the system. A very simple home cleanse programme would be to follow the above recommendations and to take organic triphala at night to ensure a complete cleansing every morning. Triphala is the most famous ayurvedic remedy and is a combination of three fruits that very gently detoxify the body and rejuvenate the digestive system. Follow this programme strictly for two weeks.

At the end of a busy day make yourself a delicious cup of milk simmered with a pinch of nutmeg and cardamom and settle in for a blissful night's sleep.

Neurodegenerative Disorders - Ayurvedic Herbal Treatment

Send Bams


Neurodegenerative disorders form a group of diseases in which there is a progressive loss of structure or function of neurons or nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, resulting in progressive degeneration and death of the nerve cells causing problems with movement (ataxia) or with mental functioning (dementia). These disorders are characterized by a standard pathological process involving inflammation; oxidative stress; abnormal depletion or insufficient synthesis of neurotransmitters; and genetic mutations, causing damage to protein synthesis and premature cell death. This Send Bams results in aggregation or deposit of abnormal protein clumps in various parts of the brain and spinal cord, and characteristic symptoms which help in identifying specific diseases.

AD is characterized by cognitive impairment causing loss of memory; disturbance in reasoning, planning, language and perception; and behavioral changes. This disease causes deposits of fibril clumps of abnormal β amyloid protein known as senile plaques. This causes gross atrophy and degeneration of different parts of the brain including the temporal lobe, parietal lobe, parts of the frontal cortex, and the lingulate gyrus.

PD is a chronic and progressive movement disorder characterized by slow movement (bradykinesia), rigidity, resting tremor, and postural instability. There is an abnormal accumulation of protein known as Lewy bodies, causing death of dopamine generating cells in the substantia nigra, a region of the midbrain. Both AD and PD are usually associated with advanced age.

HD is an adult onset, autosomal dominant, inherited disorder characterized by involuntary movements, dementia, and behavioral changes. There is a loss of neurons in the basal ganglia and frontal and temporal cortex. The subthalamic nuclei send control signals to the globus pallidus which initiates and modulates motion. Weaker signals cause reduced initiation and modulation of movement resulting in the characteristic choreiform (repetitive, rapid and jerky) movements of HD.

ALS is a disease in which motor neurons are selectively targeted for degeneration. Motor neurons are nerve cells located in the brain, brainstem and spinal cord which serve as controlling units and communication links between the nervous system and voluntary muscles of the body. Motor neurons in the brain are known as upper motor neurons while those in the spinal cord are known as lower motor neurons. ALS is a rapidly progressive neurological disease affecting both the upper and lower motor neurons. There is a loss of voluntary control over arms, legs, and respiratory muscles. Muscle wasting, atrophy, and twitching (fasciculation) cause problems with movement, dysphagia (difficulty in swallowing), dysarthria (difficulty in speech) and spasticity. Sensory function and cognition are usually well maintained. ALS pathology includes protein aggregates, mutation in the gene encoding the antioxidant Superoxide Dismutase 1 (SOD 1), and mutation in chromosome 9. The mutation first acts on the local astrocytes, which later causes a toxic effect on the entire motor neuron.

Send Bams are a group of neurological disorders in which there is degeneration and atrophy of the cerebellum, causing abnormal and uncoordinated movements, gait abnormalities, fine motor in-coordination, speech and swallowing difficulties, visual abnormalities, increased fatigue, and cognitive and mood problems.
