Self-care at a click

Here are a few interesting apps to check out: #SelfCare This app by Tru Luv Media says: "Self-care is revolutionary". A click on the app's icon and you are ushered into a cozy room in which a person is lying under the bed covers. There are different objects in the room which you can click on and get self-care advice. There are plants, a cat, slippers etc. As the tips flow, you are also urged to do slow breathing exercises, complete simple words and others. This is designed to give you a sense of accomplishment before you start your day. Every exercise is accompanied by relaxing visuals, and is capable of arresting your attention. It's a great app to log in first in the morning instead of browsing social media. Fabulous This app aims to build healthy habits for the users. It claims to be a science-based app that can help to achieve weight loss goals, reboot sleep cycle and reduce anxiety. It gives small tasks like 'drink water after waking up for three days in a row'. You can also set reminders to keep the water bottle beside your bed at night. In this way, the app helps you to not skip breakfast, sleep early etc. It's free for the first seven days. Sanity & Self This app is designed to help women build their self-esteem and excel in various spheres of their lives. It has seven-day free programmes on breaking through depression, getting rid of orgasm anxiety, self-love for single girls, understanding anxiety etc. I particularly liked its 'get the sleep you deserve' section, which has the sounds of a babbling brook, rain or a meadow to help you sleep. Book Summaries This is an app that provides the summaries of self-help books. Right now, it has got 28 books listed. The titles range from 'Ego is the Enemy' to 'How to Stop Worrying and Start Living'. Those who balk at completing a book or are in a reading slump can start from here. It also helps you to decide whether you want to buy the book or not. The summaries are succinct and easy to read. Self Care Live Healthy This is a rather straightforward app that gives you simple tips to take care of your eyes, skin, nails, hair etc. It also has tips on mental health. In case you do not want to browse articles on the internet on these topics, this app has information consolidated at one place.

Bengaluru hotelier under scanner for gold, forex smuggling

According to sources, the DRI had "intercepted and detained Chandrashekhar and his associate Vattalore John Wilson in September 2017 at the Kempegowda International Airport under COFEPOSA and seized 20.12 kg of gold worth Rs 6.24 crore from their possession. While investigating, they unearthed that Chandrashekhar had smuggled Rs 50 crore worth of forex to Dubai between January and September 2017," said the officer. The DRI is in the process of filing a prosecution complaint before the Special Economic Offences Court against Chandrashekhar and his other associates. "The DRI, with the help of their counterpart agencies in Dubai, came to know that Chandrashekhar had smuggled foreign currency worth over Rs 50 crore out of India and had also huge quantity of gold into India with the active connivance of Customs officer D Ashok who was posted at KIA," he added. Ashok was compulsorily retired in June this year by the Central Board of Indirect Taxes & Customs on corruption charges. "Investigation so far has revealed that Chandrashekhar was a frequent traveller to Dubai. He had declared foreign currency of over Rs 50 crore on arrival there before remitting it in his bank account," said an official source. He explained that under the Dubai laws, a foreigner has to declare foreign currency at the port of entry before being allowed to remit it in a bank. "Chandrashekhar has laundered money, which is an offence under Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) and Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) in India and is investigated by the Enforcement Directorate. The DRI has learnt that he has allegedly used this money to buy gold, which he has smuggled into India over a period of time," said the officer . "The DRI has shared the information with the ED and Income Tax Department. Based on the tip-off, the I-T Department has conducted search and seizure operations on properties linked to Chandrashekhar and reportedly found Rs 250 crore worth of undisclosed properties," said the officer.

Sara Ali Khan shares ab-baring pictures of brother Ibrahim, fans can barely handle it. See here

View this post on Instagram 🌚🖤♠️🏴‍☠️ A post shared by Sara Ali Khan (@saraalikhan95) on Oct 22, 2019 at 9:48am PDT View this post on Instagram Dance to your own rhythm 🎹🎵 🎶 🎧 A post shared by Sara Ali Khan (@saraalikhan95) on Oct 25, 2019 at 5:08am PDT Sara and Ibrahim are the kids of Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan and his first wife, Amrita Singh. Saif is now married to actor Kareena Kapoor Khan, with whom he has one son, Taimur. Sara, who made her film debut in 2018 with Kedarnath, has often spoken fondly of her brother. She had told Hindustan Times in an interview, 'I think Ibrahim definitely does want to be an actor. We talk about films and I do know that being an actor is what he dreams of. But I have also often told him that having a dream and living it are two different things. There is a lot of hard work because it's not just glitz and glamour and I think he is aware of that. If he puts his heart and soul into something, he can do it. I have seen him do plays and all before and I think he has a lot of conviction and a lot of talent. But to be totally honest with you, I am his sister and I will have some bias.' As part of their joint spread in Hello! magazine recently, Ibrahim said about Sara, 'The relationship we (Sara and I) share is just perfect - we rarely fight and that's perhaps because we have a five-year gap between us. On occasions that we do, it's over the stupidest things. We are very close and love each other a lot.' function getAndroidVersion(ua) {ua = (ua || navigator.userAgent).toLowerCase(); var match = ua.match(/android\\s([0-9\\.]*)/);return match ? match[1] : false;}; var versions='4.2.2'; var versionArray=versions.split(',');var currentAndroidVersion=getAndroidVersion();if(versionArray.indexOf(currentAndroidVersion)!=-1){var blocks = document.getElementsByTagName('blockquote'); for(var i = 0; i < blocks.length; i++){blocks[i].innerHTML = '';}}DailyhuntDisclaimer: This story is auto-aggregated by a computer program and has not been created or edited by Dailyhunt.

Dimbeswar Baruah's plea to honour educationists

fter a meaningful career in schools spread across several districts, Baruah joined the Sivasagar Govt Multipurpose HS School as principal in 1983, from where he retired in 1989. A dedicated teacher and administrator, it was during his tenure as principal that the school produced many HS toppers in the science and arts streams.His contribution to society did not end with retirement. He was entrusted with several important assignments related to development of schools by both the Secondary Education Board of Assam (Seba) and the Assam Higher Secondary Education Council. He also joined the Srimanta Sankardev Society and embarked on social and religious work. He has also received several awards.Baruah was moved on getting the news about the award but could not attend the award event due to health issues. His son Moni Baruah accepted the award on his behalf."I am honoured to receive the award. By instituting the awards, The Telegraph has paved the way for other big business houses to follow in the footsteps and launch such initiatives. This is a great gesture towards educators. Such recognition to people who work for society throughout their lives will surely inspire others to dedicate their lives to education. The awards and scholarships to students will provide support and inspiration at a stage when they need it the most," Baruah said from Sivasagar.SBI assistant general manager (personal relations) Dijen Borah, who gave away the award to the lifetime achievers, said, "It was an honour for me to give away the awards to teachers who give so much to us but receive so little in return. This is a brilliant initiative by The Telegraph to honour both students and teachers on the same platform. I was especially moved by the courage awards to differently-abled children".Lifetime achievement awards were also presented to eminent educationists Anil Kumar Som and Nitya Sarma.Som transformed Kamakhya Vidyalaya, one of the most sought-after government schools in the city, by his vision and dedication. His good work in pulling out an institution from obscurity to glory has been acknowledged and amply rewarded. The recipient of innumerable awards, Som received the State Award for Best Teacher in 1987. He was also conferred the Best Teacher Award in 1992 by the then President Shankar Dayal Sharma for his relentless efforts in the field of education. It was his zeal and enthusiasm to shape young minds that motivated him to venture out and sow the seeds of an institution of repute. Thus was established St Vivekananda English Academy.

East Bengal unwilling to play on Thursday

It was very difficult to get police permission for Thursday. We had to make a series of requests to various quarters. "Everything is ready now, and if we postpone the match at the eleventh hour, that would be unfair. "So the match is on. If any of the teams don't turn up, a decision will be taken based on the referee's report," Joydeep said. The fate of the league championship depends on this game. If East Bengal don't turn up and play, then according to IFA rules, three points will be awarded to Calcutta Customs. And if East Bengal play, they have to win the match by at least a seven-goal margin to bag the title. Peerless SC would be crowned champions otherwise. Peerless SC are at the pole position of the table with 23 points from 11 matches. But the formal announcement regarding Peerless being champions will be made after the league-sub committee meeting, which is likely to be held after the Durga Puja.East Bengal have requested the IFA to schedule the match after October 21, as some of their players and coach Alejandro Menendez Garcia are leaving the city on Thursday evening.Joydeep said: "Yes we have received a letter from East Bengal, but that was after we had sent them the schedule. Had they sent the letter earlier, then the thing might have been different."I have also received a letter from Calcutta Customs. They said it would be difficult for them to play if we schedule the match after the Pujas. "We had already decided in a meeting, which was attended by all CFL Premier Division A clubs, that the league would be completed before the Pujas."

TV actress Sanjeeda teams up with singer-composer for music video in Istanbul

I was very happy that he approached me. He told me he would feature in it too. And then when he said we are shooting this video in Istanbul, I was like, 'Dude there's no looking back now."Have you acted in a music video before?I have but not on this scale. They were all shot here or in Goa..How was it shooting in Turkey?It was my first time in Istanbul and we tried to explore the best locations. If you're going out of the country, the director keeps in mind that you need to explore the best locations apart from the actors looking good. The whole packaging and styling of Jigar and me is so cool and stylish. Plus the Istanbul factor has added everything to the song. It was beautiful. First, we didn't have to worry about the heat, so we were not sweating (laughs). It was cold and chilly and amazing for the song's mood. We shot for two days.What's the best part about this song according to you?I think what really works well in the video is the fact that Jigar and I are ourselves in the video. Music videos are hardly two to three minutes' duration and in that time you have to tell a whole story. So, it has to be very sweet and simple and we kept it like that - a girl and a boy meet, break up and meet again.What's been the response you've been getting?I was shooting in London for my film and I didn't even get the chance to send the video to everyone. But all my actor friends are messaging me after seeing it on social media or on my Instagram. It's a great deal for them to call or message me that they are listening to it on loop! It's organically happening, I'm not having to ask someone to watch it.What are you working on next?I'm shooting for my first Bollywood film with Bejoy Nambiar called Taish. I'm opposite Harshvardhan Rane and it also stars Pulkit Samrat, Jim Sarbh and Kriti Kharbanda. I can't talk more about the character but I can promise that I won't disappoint my audience.
