Try these 4 rituals to cleanse your aura and heal from within

Time of India7 hours ago
Ever feel like you're carrying around invisible baggage that no amount of sleep or skincare can fix? Maybe you've been snapping at people for no reason, or just feel 'off' even when everything seems fine.
No, it's not just a mood swing—chances are, your aura is picking up negative energetic dust from the world around you.
The good news? You don't need to book a retreat in the Himalayas. Healing your aura can start right at home with a few simple rituals. Here are 4 easy ways to cleanse your aura from the inside out:
1. Salt Water Bath: The Quick Reset
Ever wondered why a beach vacation feels so refreshing? Here's the secret, salt is a natural energy purifier. Draw a warm bath, add a handful of sea salt (or Himalayan salt), and soak for at least 15 minutes.
As the salt dissolves, visualize it pulling out all the negativity and stress clinging to your aura. You'll step out feeling lighter—physically, emotionally, and energetically.
2.
Smudging with Sage
: Smoke Out the Bad Vibes
Smudging isn't just for spiritual gurus. Burning sage, palo santo, or other cleansing herbs and letting the smoke drift around your body and living space can clear out stagnant, heavy energy.
Focus on corners, doorways, and spaces where you spend the most time.

When you're done, open a window to let the negativity escape and make space for light, fresh energy to flow in.
3. Crystal Charging: Harness Nature's Filters
Certain crystals, like amethyst, black tourmaline, or clear quartz, are believed to absorb and neutralize negative energy. Keep them near your bed, on your desk, or carry one in your pocket for daily protection.
To keep your crystals working their magic, 'recharge' them once a month by placing them under direct sunlight or moonlight overnight.
4. Sound Healing: Tune Up Your Energy
Play soothing music, chant mantras, or gently ring a meditation bell or singing bowl around your body. The sound vibrations help break up stuck energy and restore harmony within your aura.
Even a few minutes of sound healing can leave you feeling more balanced, aligned, and calm.
Your energy deserves maintenance, just like your body and mind.
So, if you're feeling off, heavy, or just need a reset, try one (or all) of these rituals. Your aura will thank you.

Gujarat sees sharp rise in fat consumption: NSS Report

Ahmedabad: Gujarat has recorded one of the highest increases in daily fat intake in urban areas over the past 12 years, according to the latest National Sample Survey (NSS) report titled 'Nutritional Intake in India 2023–24'. The report states that urban residents in Gujarat consumed 89.3g of fat per person per day in 2023–24, up from 68.5g in 2009–10, an increase of 20.8g. This is among the highest across major Indian states, with only Sikkim (112.1g), Chandigarh (101.1g), and Ladakh (91.8g) surpassing Gujarat. Nationally, the average rise in fat consumption in urban areas during this period was 16.8g. In contrast, the increase in protein intake was far more modest. The average daily protein consumption in urban Gujarat rose from 56.4g in 2009–10 to 59.4g in 2023–24, an increase of just 3g. This is slightly lower than the national average increase of 4.6g over the same period.

In rural areas, the average daily calorie intake stood at 2,105 kilo calories (Kcal), below the national rural average of 2,212 Kcal. However, in urban areas, the state's average was 2,310 Kcal, higher than the national urban average of 2,240 Kcal. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Free P2,000 GCash eGift UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo The NSS report also highlighted the primary sources of protein in Gujarat's diet. Cereals remain the largest contributor, providing 47.3% of protein in rural areas and 40.4% in urban areas. This is followed by milk and milk products (15% rural, 16.3% urban), and pulses (10.6% rural, 11.2% urban). Animal-based proteins—fish, meat, and eggs—made up just 3.6% of protein intake in both segments, with the remainder coming from other sources. Speaking on the findings, Shruti Bhardwaj, chief clinical nutritionist at Zydus Hospital, said that while the rise in calorie and protein intake is encouraging, there's scope for improvement. "Fat, protein, and carbohydrates are all essential macronutrients. The key is maintaining the right balance for optimal body function," she said. Bhardwaj noted that individual nutritional needs vary depending on age, gender, occupation, and lifestyle. "For instance, a sedentary IT professional may require only 1,600 Kcal daily, not the 2,000 Kcal often recommended. Similarly, while 1 gram of protein per kg of body weight has been the norm, newer studies suggest that 0.8 grams per kg may suffice for most adults," she added. She also emphasized the importance of dietary innovation to meet nutritional needs. "Simple changes like adding protein-rich ingredients to chapati flour can help meet daily requirements without relying on supplements," she said.

Hair transplant goes awry, clinic asked to pay 6 lakh

New Delhi: New Delhi District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission has held a private firm liable for conducting a transplant procedure without the necessary licence and govt approval. The commission emphasised that medical procedures must be performed by qualified professionals with licence and clinics must be properly registered and strictly adhere to established medical standards. The bench, comprising president Poonam Chaudhry, and members Bariq Ahmad and Shekhar Chandra, also found the clinic negligent for failing to deliver satisfactory results despite full payment. They stressed that patients must be fully informed about procedures, including associated risks, limitations, and expected outcomes. On May 22, 2025, the commission ordered the clinic to refund Rs 5,01,000 to the complainant, along with Rs 1,00,000 as compensation for mental harassment and Rs 30,000 for litigation costs. The commission noted that despite undergoing three sessions, the complainant observed no improvement— not even a 1% difference—in his hair condition, and the clinic failed to provide any explanation.

The complainant stated that the clinic failed in its duty towards consumers, amounting to deficiency in service and unfair trade practice. He pointed out that the clinic's brochure guaranteed full hair growth or replacement in consultation with expert doctors. He also alleged the employment of unqualified staff and operation without the necessary licences. Despite paying Rs 5,01,000, he saw no improvement and filed his complaint in 2013. The clinic countered that the complainant had been fully informed of the pros and cons of the hair transplant procedures, and it was made clear that individual results may vary. They claimed all procedures were conducted professionally, even extending beyond medically recommended zones at the complainant's request. The clinic argued that the complainant's dissatisfaction arose from impatience and disregard for medical advice.
