An SEO expert, a pranayama instructor, and a man who remembered everything walk into a bar. The SEO expert boasts, “I can get anything to rank first on Google.” The pranayama instructor takes a deep breath and says, “I teach health through just breath.” The man who remembered everything sighs, “And now I will remember all of this, sometimes though I wish I could selectively forget because the top result is peace within”

WELLNESS
Breathe In, Breathe Out
Thousands of years ago eastern medical practitioners unearthed the profound impact of breath manipulation on one’s health, laying the foundation for pranayama techniques that enhance the flow of life force energy or prana within the body. Today backed by scientific research, pranayama stands out for its incredible benefits, from slowing the aging process and boosting self-awareness to significantly reducing stress levels. Embracing these practices can not only alleviate stress and anxiety but also rejuvenate your body and extend your lifespan. So start today and see how a few simple breathing exercises can make a big difference to your day.
SCIENCE

It got me thinking – what’s really going on in our brains and how do they remember everything? Here is a story of an individual who experiences life with an extraordinary memory and challenges our understanding of cognitive functioning. This rare condition, known as hyperthymesia, allows him to remember almost every detail of his life and strangely he never thought that this was odd. Such cases provide insights into the complexities of the human mind and memory. It was a gem of a find, this man who remembered everything.
