Words: Dr Rajgopal NIDAMBOOR Our success and fulfilment depend upon how we respond to challenges of everyday life. The duo is in no way related, or reliant, on privileges, advantages, or disadvantages, that we are all born with, or are not able to surmount as we’d all want, or wish to. Whatever our station in
Words: Dr Rajgopal NIDAMBOOR Lumbago is pain in mid- and lower-back; however, it is an evocative term that does not specify a cause. Lumbago often presents with mild-to-severe pain, or discomfort, in the area of the lower back. The pain can be sudden and severe [acute], or long-standing [chronic]. The pain most often occurs in
Words: Dr Rajgopal NIDAMBOOR Colour is, perhaps, the rainbow synthesis of our lives. There’s also a paradox — although we are incessantly fascinated by different colours, hues and tints, we do not always think of their power. We do not also sometimes notice the colours around us.

Words: Dr Rajgopal NIDAMBOOR A team is best defined as a combination of a highly communicative group of people. Poor communication, therefore, means no team. A team should also, doubtless, have members with different backgrounds, skills and abilities. This would help to ‘pool’ optimal resources for it to be effective. In other words, a team

All of us can attain such a state without being Zen masters by accommodating our and others’ sensitivities and sensibilities.

Words: Dr Rajgopal NIDAMBOOR Think of the most improbable miniature helicopter of all, or those unbearable ‘drum beats’ in your ear. You gotcha the whole idea right — a hazard you’d not even ‘touch’ from afar, as it were. Now, to the basics. With her brittle body, and spiky arsenal of wings, legs and antennae
Words: Dr Rajgopal NIDAMBOOR Anger runs in our genes and also our emotions. Yet, it may not be as fierce as rage, belligerence and wrath. Anger can lead to violence, all right.

Words: Dr Rajgopal NIDAMBOOR Most successful people, we know, pursued their dreams, not just academics, or professions. This was, indeed, their ticket to success and eternal glory. Picture this. Most of our great, successful men and women never went through the 12-year educational ‘expedition’ our kids currently go through, along with their much-glorified percentage points.
Words: Dr Rajgopal NIDAMBOOR There is ‘participation’ in everything that happens, or does not happen, around us. This is nothing short of a profound sense of reciprocation — one that may also express what is obvious. Your hand is able to touch things, because it is a touchable thing all by itself. It is also
Words: Dr Rajgopal NIDAMBOOR “Any disease,” as Dr Farzad Farahmand, DC, the American chiropractic, homeopath, and wellness physician, puts it, “is a result of some kind of energy imbalance in the body.
