 5 tips to get rid of Stress "The greatest weapon against stress is our ability to choose one thought over another" -William James Stress is something that all of us go through on a daily basis. Whether it is because of school examinations, university assignment deadlines, daily work routine in office or even because of daily chaos at home. Every human being living on earth goes through this uncomfortable feeling everyday but you could actually see its effect in different ways. That is because, many of us find our own mechanisms to deal with the level of stress faced everyday. These methods could differ from one person to another. Yet again, the ultimate goal is to find peace of mind and lead a happy life. We come across many people whether it be in school, university or office on a daily basis. However, if we see someone close to us unhappy, we could detect it faster than if someone unknown to us so reacts. Yet, it would be inconvenient to inquire that certain individual as ...

 A simple DIY idea to decorate your room (Chathugal Photography) Hey Blog-lovers, welcome to my new Blog post and Happy New Year 2021 to all my dear readers from around the world. I conveyed my New Year wishes to all in my previous post which was published on the 1st of January, 2021, but its never too much, because, we all need that positive vibe and love at all times.  2020 was not at all as expected and was full of sorrow and insecurities. So, My wish for all out there is to be healthy, wealthy and full of love & happiness. But now its the time to continue to maintain healthy measures to be protected both physically as well as mentally. Have you ever tried any simple DIY decorative ideas using the simple things you find around the house. Well, last year, during the last few days of December, I thought of doing a small makeover to my dressing table and then I came up with a very simple but decorative idea to fancy up my bedroom.  It was definitely not a big deal, bu...

 A Rooftop Time-lapse Video Hey blog-lovers. If you are familiar with my blog, you might already know that I enjoy photography and videography. As a self learnt person, I wanted to try out a new technique of videography that I have longed to try out for ages. So this post is about it. (Extracted from google public domain) Its called a time-lapse video or photography technique. A time-lapse is one that increases the sequence of a recording than the usual ordinary frequency of a video/series of photos when played (if a video). Meaning, when you record a video either using a time-lapse format or edit the video into a time-lapse clip, it would then play at about 30 times faster than the original clip.  (Extracted from google public domain) For better understanding, this is what Wikipedia says on this (using photography technical terms): "Time-lapse photography  is a technique whereby the frequency at which  film  frames are captured (the  frame rate ) is much m...

 How about some relaxation sounds? Hey blog-lovers, hope you are doing good. After a while, I thought of sharing a completely new aspect with my readers. This has something to do with sounds. Well, how am I going to share sounds on a Blog? That's a good question. But here we go. (Extracted from google public domain) Mind relaxation is something we all need. But you might sometimes have a need to do some work, yet, you might feel a bit lazy to start it up. Although I am neither a scientific expert nor a medical expert, through experience, I could guess that this laziness has something to do with a restless mind. This could be caused if we try to concentrate on doing several work at a time, and end up doing nothing right and effectively. (Extracted from google public domain) So, I thought of suggesting you something. That is, to play music in the background of you place of work/study and start off whichever work you need to pursue. It may either be work, study or even completing an a...

Getting Rid of Stress  Part II  How are you in the midst of this global pandemic? (Extracted from google public domain) Hey blog-lovers, it took me some time to get back to all of you as I was personally busy with my higher studies. Although we are already in the month of December of this year and a few weeks more for Christmas, I personally feel as if this year just started off. 2020 seems to have passed much quickly than any other years, and honestly, it was not a pleasant year at all.  (Extracted from google public domain) However, I thought of sharing some tips with my readers that I believe would help you get over the stress level created through the chaotic environment as that of the one we are currently living in. I'd suggest that you also read one of my previous Blog posts on How to get rid of Stress and see if that is of any use.   With the busy lifestyle that all of us follow regardless of whichever country we live in, we are always chasing our dreams...

Do we fulfill our duties to mother earth?  The world is full of requests and protests to obtain their own rights. People talk of human rights and endless amounts of rights that bring those rights into pages and pages of books. But why do most people on this earth not look into the rights the animals and nature are entitled to and only concentrate on their own benefits? SELFISHNESS !!! This might be the answer that pop into everyone's heads when such a question is raised.  Animals and nature cannot claim their own rights as they cannot speak up like we do. But thanks to many concerned individuals, major man caused nature disasters have been stopped and are been watched. The law has also been watching nature destroying wrongdoers and sufficient punishments have been imposed. When one half of the world work hard to preserve the nature, another half do absolutely nothing but destroy the very little and scarce natural sources available to us.  An up roaring incide...

A sacred visit to India India is the country with the second largest population in the world. Initially, being larger in land space, it has now become the present India. Being a country which gives priority to agriculture, nature, art, religious views, various languages spoken in different states and the nature friendliness in all ways is a great inspiration and change which is needed for an amazing experience. To make it more simple, it is a great "getaway". Why exactly is this visit sacred? For us Buddhists, India is very important due to the facts  related with the history of Buddhism. India is also called as "Buddhabumi" by Buddhist and hundreds of Sri Lankans visit the Sacred places every year. So this year, thanks to my parents, I got the chance to visit those places, see them with my own eyes and worship them with a heart filled with happiness. Leaving the Katunayaka Bandaranayaka International Airport late at night, we landed to Indira Gandhi Airport ...

Recap of 2016 2016 is almost over and a new year is ahead. Most of the things might have happened to you during this year. You may have gained new things, lost things, learned a lot more other things, met new people, visited new places and so on and so forth. Overall for me, this year was one of the most busiest years in my life. Although its been almost 2 years ever since I created my blog, I could hardly make many travel posts this year. The main reason been that I was much busy with my law exams which are still on going. Nevertheless, I created this final post for this year to recap the few but very exciting posts that I created throughout the year. Not to of course forget that its already been a year ever since I created my YouTube channel which you could view here .   My first post for the year was on HOW TO GET RID OF STRESS . I hope that this post was of help for those who were and who are still suffering from stress. I next published the series of posts with ...

Therefore lets obey the rules and keep the place clean when visiting it. Also you could grab awesome el...

Thanks to my knowledge and several people around me, I was capable of finding and attending to a reputed workplace in order complete my internship.
