Impromptu 2D1N road trip to malacca (22-23 oct 2013)

I was being asked out of sudden for an impromptu road trip to malacca by my friend. It was so fast that she arranged the trip and we just set off the next day.

Upon arriving in yong peng, we headed for the bak kut teh and vinegar pig trotters for lunch.



This bak kut teh together with vinegar pig trotters cost $30 rinngit for 3 pax























                                                     Visit to a home-style noodle factory



 Tourist spot : Christ Church







The rickshaws here are so beautifully decorated as compared to singapore one so pale in comparison.



It's check in time!!

For the first time, I am staying in a motel something like a backpackers' hostel.I stayed in Jiong guest's house. Supposedly to be having a korean theme for this guest house.

 This was my room shared with my friends. Seems pretty clean in the room but the guest lobby was not well maintained .Probably good for one day stay. Anything beyond that I would give a thumbs down. Reasons being that there was no shared bathroom in every level, have to climb up steep steps with holes in the stairs and only 2 toilets and bathrooms for 3 levels to use. Further to that,I do not suggest u guys to book here online cos it cost sing dollars $30+ online whereas u can get a hotel room at $50 rinngit at fairway hotel and u get an attached toilet in the room.



Here's the photo for the group of us who went for the trip

This place as mentioned by our van driver was supposed to be the most romantic place where couples come here to take bridal shoot. It was really breezy at night.

My loots for the trip



Overall, this trip was good as it helps me to destress before starting to prepare for my exam.

Wan He Lou's food review dated on 12.10.13

It is a rainy afternoon on a saturday where I went for the food review at Wan He Lou 萬合楼. It was raining so heavily that my books got drenched :( but thank God for that the food made up for the fact that my books got drenched.

A little bit of the history of Wan He Lou 萬合楼 was that this restaurant started about four months back. It's aim was actually to be providing the freshest and most down to earth price to unite the senses of our tongue , smell and sight. It has a bit of concept of those 私房菜 restaurant.

I was overwhelmed by the number of the dishes that the marketing director, Mr Vincent has provided for us, the bloggers to do the food tasting.

First, we had the vegetable juice which is caixin blended with plum and pineapple. It has a refreshing taste. Moms, you can try this out when your kiddos are reluctant to eat vegetables. Alternatively, you guys can head to 萬合楼 for some quick fix.

新鲜蔬菜汁 $3.00


Second, we had the signature lobster porridge. The lobster is fresh and the sweetness of the lobster is there. As per recommended by Mr Vincent, the best way to retain the lobster meat which is not overcooked is to take out the lobster out of the porridge as soon as it is served. However, we ate the porridge after all the photo taking .Thus the sweetness of the lobster meat has gone into the porridge soup. This portion of lobster porridge can be shared by at least 2 to 3 people.


招牌龙虾粥 $29.90


Next , we have the crispy lotus roots with salted egg

咸蛋脆莲藕 $11.90

This dish is so good that u can even eat it on its own as tibit. We polished up this whole plate as that you can't stop munching.


Qing Long Cai ( Green dragon vegetable)


双味青龙菜 $9.90

A little info about the green dragon vegetable is that is being grown in cameron highlands. It is the cross bred of the green and yellow chives. Thus, it is considered a vegetable from the chives range.
This plate of green dragon vegetable is cooked in 2 different ways . One in the stir fried way and another in deep fried . For me, I prefer the stir fried one instead of the deep fried one. Cos the stir fried one is very crunchy and I can't stop eating it. Deep fried style one is rather dry and that it taste a bit like very tiny weenie bit of dried seaweed and it is topped up with the floss.



Seven spiced pork chop

七味汁猪仔扒 $14.90

This dish is beautifully decorated and i like the way the chef decorate it.For me, this dish is not what i exactly expected cos i expect to get a full flavour from the pork chop with all the different kind of spices where I am able to taste the kind of feeling which is the feeling of excitement and feeling in heaven.


Caro Chicken Soup with Chinese Pear & Coconut


椰肉雪梨鸡汤 $19.90 

 This soup is like the usual home cooked soup that have been boiled for many hours. The chicken has been fed with carrot so therefore the special name caro chicken. Its meat taste a bit like kampong chicken kind of meat. It is not those meat that is totally tasteless after being boiled in the pot for so long.
The caro chicken that is being chopped after being in the soup for so long , the meat is so soft.


Authentic Shanghai Hairy Crab (~150-170)

大闸蟹 $26.90

 This is the first time that I tried hairy crab.I felt that the roe was creamier than the normal crab. However , i did not expected it to be so small. It is supposed to be eaten with black vinegar cooked with some sugar and ginger and supposed to be the last dish to be eaten before the dessert.


short video done by the restaurant manager on how to eat hairy crab



Hot promo: Buy 3 get 1 free from now till end of the month

As for the decoration of the restaurant, it looks like this



Last but notheless, I would say that the executive chef is a very creative chef and daring to try out new dishes with new flavours. I would like to thank Mr Vincent and street directory for this food review session. The opinions are my own opinions and the prices of the dishes may vary.

Share economy - Have u heard about it ?

As we all enjoy shopping,all the items we buy night end up being a white elephant for quite sometime in the store room. Thus, there is wastage of space and there is no return of investment of those white elephants.

What share economy does is to help us to save money and also get back some return of investment from our purchase. Here's a video to educate all about share economy.

 
Are you willing to be part of the share economy ? Wait for my next posting to see how u can benefit from a handphone application and earn some cash vouchers

All about bones

Bones form our skeleton frame , how often do we consider if our bones are healthy? What kind of bone health are we looking at in order to ensure our bones are healthy to last us till our old age in the 70s or 80s ?

These are some of the following ways to get healthy bones

Get 30 minutes of weight bearing exercise daily. When muscles are exercised they pull on the bones they are attached to. This pulling action builds bone tissue, so weight bearing exercises build stronger, denser bones.
  • Building bone mass before age 30 is beneficial later in life when bones are breaking down, but weight bearing exercise throughout life helps to maintain bone density.
  • Weight bearing exercises include weight lifting, running, step aerobics and any activity that requires your body to work against gravity, thereby creating resistance.
  • Unlike aerobic exercise, weight bearing exercise does not need to be done all at once to be beneficial. Doing 10 minutes of weight bearing exercise 3 times a day is equally as beneficial as a half-hour work out.
  • Eat a healthy diet to increase bone density. To build bone material your body needs calcium and vitamin D. In addition to calcium, your bones are 1/3 collagen, a protein that gives bones flexibility and minimizes breakage.

  • Eat lots of leafy green vegetables, both raw and cooked. Not only are these vegetables high in calcium, they are also a good source of potassium, vitamin K, and other minerals necessary for healthy bone growth.
  • Drink low-fat milk and eat low-fat yogurt, cheese and other dairy products to increase your calcium consumption. Dairy products are fortified with vitamin D to help your body to absorb and use the calcium content.
  • Consider taking a calcium supplement if your diet falls short of your daily calcium needs. If you need more than 500 mg a day in the form of a calcium supplement, take your daily supplements in two smaller doses. Your body is only able to absorb up to 500 mg at a time.
  • Replenish the collagen in your bones by eating a sufficient amount of lean protein, such as poultry, fish and beans.
  • Add whole grain pasta and bread to your diet for a good source of magnesium. Magnesium is known to help bones stay strong.

    How to curb allergies

    1. Wash hair before bed so allergens don’t get on pillow and then in eyes 
    2. Avoid consuming “cured meats.” The nitrites & nitrates in them will worsen your allergies 
    3. Don’t use any form of fabric softener or dryer sheets to avoid irritating residues 
    4. Groom cats with damp cloths or cotton gloves. It will help to eliminate allergens 
    5. Keep a diary to help you and your doctor sort out your allergic “triggers” 
    6. Use saline sinus rinse to wash out nasal irritants daily or even twice daily 
    7. Change the air filter in your AC or heating unit 
    8. Cover your bedding, including the comforter, with dust mite proof coverings 
    9. Avoid consuming sugar & sweets – these items can increase your risk for allergy attacks 
    10. Kitty liter is a source of irritation – use large wood chips, crystal balls or newspaper chips 
    11. Wash eye lashes with dilute baby shampoo to clean off allergens 
    12. Avoid consuming vegetable oils like soy & canola – these oils can make your allergies much worse

    Review of a spa on 21.6.13

    I was given a chance to review a spa which aims To be Singapore's most recommended spa where customers love to visit and our people serve happily and become a force for good in our communities.

    It is none other than Healing Touch Singapore!! I was excited about it cos i love massages. The kind of massage which i usually go for is swedish massage. However , this time round at Healing Touch I opted for the asian fusion massage. It is the signature massage with variety of techniques inspired by popular traditional Asian massages fused into a seamless wave of healing touch. Great for relief of tension, stiffness and body aches.

    I also got to choose a body scrub which is refreshing lemon grass salt scrub. The lemongrass salt scrub was pretty fine in terms of the texture.

    My masseue for the day was Monica. Here's a picture of both of us.

     
    Monica was very detailed and also that she was constantly asking if her pressure was too hard on me.
     

    I chose the tension oil to go along with my massage.
     
     
    Seriously speaking, the massage that monica gave was good and it was way much better than a few years back when i patronized healing touch as in the tampines outlet. Firstly, I did not break into rashes as per my last visit donkey years ago where they use only sunflower oil for massage. Now all the aromatherapy oil is all fully blended with the herbs to provide better massage experience. Secondly , as I am very particular about the bathroom usage. It was kept in tip top condition. Thirdly, I appreciate that all the staff there always wear a smile to keep all patrons feeling happy and relaxed. Lastly, it is a company that not only provide massage services but also facial services.
     
    The best of all is that I could do a booking via the website and it is real time based.Here's the website http://www.healingtouch.com.sg/

    What is law of attraction?

    The name law of attraction was given due to the belief that "like attracts like" and that by focusing on either positive or negative thoughts, one can bring about either positive or negative results.
    This belief is based upon the idea that people and their thoughts are both made from pure energy, and the belief that like energy attracts like energy. It is known to be the science of attracting of what you want and less of what you don't.

    One example used by a proponent of the law of attraction is that if a person opened an envelope expecting to see a bill, then the law of attraction would "confirm" those thoughts and contain a bill when opened. A person who decided to instead expect a cheque might, under the same law, find a cheque instead of a bill.




    Something that intrigues me was that this law of attraction also uses the concept that where your attention goes , your energy flow. I personally have tried this concept and it works. I was privellged that I have a friend, Meiyappan Siva Pandian who is interested to teach others about law of attraction .

    Meiyappan Siva Pandian is a certified Law of Attraction coach and trainer certified by Law of Attraction Centre in Malaysia. M Siva holds a Masters  and a first class honour degree in electrical engineering. He has worked with large MNCs such as Intel technology. Inspired by Michael Losier, international trainer and author of best selling book " Law of Attraction", M Siva began to pursue his passion in performance cocahing and self mastery. Using accelerated learning techniques, he is able to coach business to peak through enhancing client sales and productivity by law of attaction, law of connection and NLP.

    Anyone interested in learning the law of attraction could email him at msiva@theloacentre.com with the code Aloa to get the free 1 hr coaching from him.

    Testimonial from his client



    Ever since I found out about Law of Attraction in 2008, I have been reading lots of materials from the internet, books, videos, audios – you name it, in an attempt to ‘master’ it. Though I did improve in several areas of my life, I was unable to get out of my financial woes.

    All that changed when I signed up for the 90-day Coaching Programme by LOA Centre. I got positive result in just one week! I have completed my coaching and my monthly income has increased by 90%. The greatest part of it all is, I learn to be a better person. That is something that money can’t buy. My deepest gratitude to everybody at LOA Centre Malaysia

    Statistics used to be one of my favourite subject in yr1 of my uni life. However, when it comes to year 3 to do it for data analysis  it becomes a chore cos got to explain the stupid definition when the formula is this and that. Oh by the way , the textbook i am using from my school has got spelling errors . The textbook name is essentials of statistics for the behavioural sciences ( 7th ed).

    Finally, it will be done after thurs and I will be able to enjoy my long weekend.

    Ways to make u stay alert


    Massage way

     I have learnt a way of massage that helps me to keep myself alert during exams. That is to massage my own head using the thumbs and the index fingers.

    Step 1: Place ur thumbs at the start of your jaw bone on the head, and index fingers slightly about one inch above the ears.

    Step 2: Lift up the thumbs and index fingers a few times to do the massage and you will feel refreshed.


    Supplementations

    I would usually rely on taking cordy max and ginko from pharmanex brand to boost  my stamina else I would have to rely on at least 4 cups of coffee. I can help to buy at a discount rate.

    A few weeks ago dinner on 14.4.13

    I cook the sauce with adding some sugar and egg in it and tasted like miso soup.

    How to remove gallstones and also how to detect it

    One of the symptoms of gallstones is a feeling of bloatedness after a heavy meal. You feel like you can’t digest the food. If it gets more serious, you feel pain in the liver area.” So if you think you have gallstones, Chiu Nan offers the following method to remove them naturally.

    The treatment is also good for those with a weak liver, because the liver and gallbladder are closely linked.

    Regimen:
    1. For the first five days, take four glasses of apple juice ever day. Or eat four or five apples, whichever you prefer. Apple juice softens the gallstones. During the five days, eat normally.
    2. On the sixth day, take no dinner.
    3. At 6 PM, take a teaspoon of Epsom salt (magnesium sulphate) with a glass of warm water.
    4. At 8 PM, repeat the same. Magnesium sulphate opens the gallbladder ducts.
    5. At 10 PM, take half cup olive oil ( or sesame oil ) with half cup fresh lemon juice. Mix it well and drink it. The oil lubricates the stones to ease their passage.

    Seasonal allergies's quick fix remedies


    How to identify synthetic vitamins

    • Organic substances generally have common names because they come from natural food sources.
    • For e.g "Lemon Grass" instead of acetate and palmitate; "Citrus" instead of "Vitamin C" or "Parsley" instead of "vitamin K"
    • Find words that end with "ate" or "ide" in the list of ingredients.
    • For e.g. nitrate, acetate, sodium ascorbate, sodium benzoate, chloride, hydrochloride, silicon dioxide and titanium dioxide.
    • In the ingredients label search for words that begin with "dl."
    • For e.g. Natural Vitamin E = d-alpha-tocopherol; Synthetic Vitamin E = dl-alpha-tocopheryl
    These are the simple ways to identify synthetic vitamins , so you people out there please look out for it.

    What kind of facial mask should you use during menstrual cycle?


    During – Moisturizing face masks and whitening eye masks. Why so ?

    This is to prevent the skin from looking dehydrated and rough. As during menstruation, a certain percentage of the water within the body and blood was lost. 

    Products recommendation: Nu Skin Creamy Hydrating Masque, Napca moisturize mist.

    Second week after the menstrual – Skin is at its best and there is increase in production of sebum. Thus also will create fine lines. Thus this season is best to use whitening masks to eliminate melanin.

     Products recommendation: Nu Skin Tri phasic white mask.

    Weeks before and after the menstrual – Deep cleansing so as to prevent the pores that are being stretched.

    Week after menstrual (post safe period) – The amount of hormones increases at a high speed in this week. If we choose to use repairing facial masks or soothing masks for seven day, our skin would definitely recover more quickly. Repairing facial masks or soothing masks have the function of activating cells. They usually contain acidic substances, such as salicylic acid.

      Products recommendation: Nu Skin 180 AHA Facial Peel and Neutralizer.

    March Holidays for Kids

    Next week, it is again the week long march holidays. Perhaps parents out there are having problem of thinking of what programs to plan for their kids. If the kids are of teenager age, I would actually recommend them to go to all those orphanages or old folks home to do some community work or learn some dialects from the old folks as the dialects are diminishing from our society.

    Parents or anyone interested to get themselves involve in community work can go to the following link  to register themselves as a volunteer

    Updates

    This month is a pretty short month for all. In Singapore, it has been raining quite often except for the few days of the chinese new year where showers of rain only lasted for about an hour or so.

    This year's ang bao collection makes me realized that even my distant relatives whom i only meet once in a while due to family gatherings gave me the angbao of blessings make me feel very touched. I never had this kind of feeling. It has been a long while that I got angbao from my 5th grand auntie cos I have not been visiting her during chinese new year due to that she said no need to visit her during chinese new year to my dad.

    The importance of having the right beliefs in our own mind adapted from JosephPrince.com of mediate of success

    Case scenario 
     
    When things go wrong in our lives, we often ask the question, “What did I DO wrong?” We believe that something we did brought about the bad thing that has happened. Granted, there are consequences to our actions, but what brought about those actions in the first place? It’s our beliefs!
    So the question we should really be asking is not, “What did I do wrong?” but “Where have I gone wrong in my believing?” The bad things that we are experiencing today are often a result of the wrong beliefs that we have. Similarly, the good things that we are experiencing today are a result of believing right about the Lord’s grace, love and promises for us.
    Beloved, I pray today that the Holy Spirit will reveal to you areas of wrong believing in your life so that any hindrances to your breakthrough may be removed. Just go to the Lord right now and ask, “Where have I believed wrong, Lord?” And let Him guide you into all truth and show you the way to your victory.
    When you know the truth and believe right, you will live right, experience freedom from bondages and walk in the blessings of God!

    Verse to mediate on :  And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. John 8:32

    7 Ways to practice peace adapted from Joyce Meyers's promises for your everyday life devotional

    7 Ways to Practice Peace

    Living in God's peace is vital to enjoying life. I believe that one of the keys to living with peace in your life is taking small steps toward peace every day. Here are a few tips you can use to develop a more peaceful lifestyle.

    1. Be selective with how you spend your time. You may be trying to do too many things and end up doing none of them well. Hurrying is the flesh trying to do more than the Holy Spirit is leading you to do. Be led by the Spirit.

    2. Be prepared to say "no" nicely. Sometimes we take on things we shouldn't because we're uncomfortable saying no. Ask God to give you the words to say no when you need to.

    3. Resist the spirit of procrastination. God's Word tells us to exercise self-discipline. Do what you know you need to do now so you can fully enjoy your times of rest.

    4. Eliminate key distractions. If you know you are prone to certain distractions, such as watching TV, set some guidelines for yourself.

    5. Set appropriate boundaries for interruptions. Life is full of interruptions, but you can learn to set boundaries that help you manage them in healthy ways, such as scheduling times when you are "off limits." Schedule time to give yourself a break.

    6. Modify your life. Ask God to show you out-of-the-box ways to save time and trouble. For instance, when I don't have time to do the dishes, I use paper plates!

    7. Pray and listen. If you can see that your plan is not producing peace, go back to God, pray for peace in the now, and for the wisdom to make changes that will benefit your life.

    The bottom line is to make peace a priority, take practical steps toward it, and let God lead you every day into His perfect peace that passes all understanding.

    Prayer Starter: God, lead me into Your peace that passes all understanding. Show me the daily steps I can take to walk in Your peace for me.

    How to develop better working relationships

    Hi all,

    thinking of how to better develop working relationship in this new year? One could develop better working relationships via the CRA model.

    The CRA model consist of C- communication and consciousness , R -recognition and A-adjustment

    Communication and consciousness- It has to be a 2 way traffic. Having to be able to garner feedback from others within team would help you to understand where are the blind spots that you need to improvise one.

    Recognition- recognize the things that you need to improve on and decide if you are willing to change your attitude or swallow your pride.

    A-after adjusting yourself to the feedback for a while, it is best to garner feed back as well.

    The answer for a guilty conscience from the excerpt from Jospeh Prince's daily devotional

    The Answer For A Guilty Conscience-Hebrews 9:14

    14 how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

    Have you heard the voice of your conscience saying things like, “You deserve hell for the sins you committed against your wife three years ago” or “Why are you surprised that your child is not talking to you? You were never around when he needed you”?


    That is why you must have an answer that will satisfy your conscience. When your conscience says, “You have sinned. You must be punished for this sin or else God is not a just God,” you say, “Yes, I have sinned. But this sin and every other sin that I have committed were punished to the maximum in the body of Jesus Christ! So there remains no more punishment for me today, for how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse my conscience!”


    My friend, the only way to bring peace to your conscience is to look to the cross. The cross of Jesus is the only answer that will satisfy your conscience.

    So the next time your conscience condemns you because of sin, don’t try to silence it with your good works. Look to the cross and say, “Father, thank You for Jesus and the cross. Jesus was totally condemned on my behalf for this sin, so there is now absolutely no condemnation left for me.” Then, your conscience will look at the cross and say, “Ahhhh... peace.” My friend, Jesus’ finished work at the cross truly sets you free!



    If you are willing to accept Jesus as your personal Lord and Saviour, please pray the following prayer

    Prayer: Thank you Lord, for sending your son Jesus Christ to died for me at the cross. Please forgive me of my sins and I receive you King Jesus into my life as my personal Lord and Saviour. Lord, I give you Lordship over my heart , my mind  and my soul. In Jesus Mighty Name, I pray Amen.

    Eat healthier this year

    This year is a very different kind of new year for me. I just thought that by eating healthier as in eating more fruits and vegetables is not enough. It would be good to keep check of the expiry date and the freshness of the food. I have found a link for that to check on how long can the food be kept for freshness. Please do take note even biscuits from Malaysia are not advisable to consume. Interested parties who are keen to know the list , please email me at akimoto_emi05@yahoo.com.sg

    Hi all,

    it has been a few days that we stepped into 2013. I had experienced the joy, grace and provision from the Lord for the past few days. Indeed, we just need to think simple and work hard. No hard and fast rules. As most people would want to start a fresh state in a new year, I would recommend some bible verses for you guys to mediate upon and picture for you to look so that 2013 is a year of happiness.



    Please feel free to tell me on the positive results if you guys find these things useful via the comments

    Thoughts after a movie

    Yesterday , I went out with my friend to watch the show hotel transylvania. It was kinda a bit of hilarious but yet at the same time touching. This show is an animated show.

    This movie even though is cartoon, it depicts paternal love and true love. Paternal love on how the father vampire despite being sorched by sun and got himself into smoke still insisted on finding back the love of his daughter's life. As for the daughter vampire, she found herself falling for a human. Yet it was love at first sight. How many of us in real life managed to get love at first sight ?

    My question is how come nowadays is that MDA allows films that are being filmed using characters and vampires to show family love? There are pros and cons to this. Pros is that kids would not get nightmare when watching horror movie. Cons is that it is not good for spiritual health.

    For once, I saw 2 movies with vampires that are being filmed in a month showing family love. The twilight saga and also this show hotel transylvania. No way am I going to watch the twilight series again so gruesome.

    Mr Bean's successful quote

     
     
    What actually makes Mr Bean successful ? This quote from him is what it makes him succeed . I guess it is the mindset of individual. He is someone so positive. This quote is something that pushes me on in life which encourages me to have the constant hunger for learning and ability to perform .

    Questionaire on how satisfied are you with life ?

    Yesterday, it was the first time I went for a psychology talk outside of school. To me, the venue was a new place. I like that environment very much. The place was called the hub.

    Over there,I met a school mate and got to know a new friend, Domina.

    If some of you could recall , sometime back earlier this year  I posted a you tube clip on the being happy. Being happy is not just a state of mind , it also deals with the choice that you make.

    Here is a list of questions that you can do to determine how satisfied with life you are.
    1. In most ways, my life is close to my ideal.
    2. The conditions of my life is excellent
    3. I am completely satisified with my life
    4. So far I have gotten the most important things I want in life
    5. If I could live my life over, I would change nothing.
    Rate these questions betweeen 1- 7 with 1 as strongly disagree and 7 being strongly agree
    Please divide your total score by 5 to determine ur satisifaction level.

    Warning about wasabi

      
     
    WASABI Is Kidney & Liver-Killer
    Also found the following info in a Japan-guide website.

    Wasabi is Japanese horseradish. It is most famous in the form of a green paste used as condiment for sashimi (raw seafood) and sushi.
    However, wasabi is also used for many other Japanese dishes.
    Wasabi is a root vegetable that is grated into a green paste. In supermarkets, wasabi is widely available as a paste or in powder form.
    Wasabi powder has to be mixed with water to become a paste.
    Wasabi has a strong, hot flavour which dissipates within a few seconds and leaves no burning aftertaste in one's mouth.
     
    Many "wasabi" powder and paste products that are available in supermarkets (and even some restaurants) contain only very little or no real wasabi at all and are made of coloured horseradish instead. This is due to the fact that cultivation of real wasabi is relatively difficult and expensive.

    WASABI generally is : 90% chemical products!
    The WASABI generally used is a Kidney & Liver-Killer contains 90% harmful chemical products! The real WASABI is in huge demand. Since the raw WASABI plant is in shortage and the labor costs to make WASABI is very high, the WASABI generally is : 90% chemical products!

    Timing for repairing of our organs


    Evening at 9 - 11pm : is the time for eliminating unnecessary/ toxic chemicals (de-toxification) from the antibody system (lymph nodes). This time duration should be spent by relaxing or listening to music. If during this time a housewife is still in an unrelaxed state such as washing the dishes or monitoring children doing their homework, this will have a negative impact on her health.

    Evening at 11pm - 1am : The de-toxification process in the liver, and ideally should be done in a deep sleep state. Early morning 1 - 3am : de-toxification process in the gall, also ideally done in a deep sleep state.

    Early morning 3 - 5am : de-toxification in the lungs. Therefore there will sometimes be a severe cough for cough sufferers during this time. Since the de-toxification process had reached the respiratory tract, there is no need to take cough medicine so as not to interfere with toxin removal process.

    Morning 4- 6am: must be in deep sleep so that the short term memory will go into the long term memory.

    Morning 5 - 7am : de-toxification in the colon, you should empty your bowel.

    Morning 7 - 9am : Absorption of nutrients in the small intestine, you should be having breakfast at this time. Breakfast should be earlier, before 6:30am, for those who are sick. Breakfast before 7:30am is very beneficial to those wanting to stay fit. Those who always skip breakfast, they should change their habits, and it is still better to eat breakfast late until 9 -10am rather than no meal at all. Sleeping so late and waking up too
