It is psychological mood disorder that is characterized by lethargy and depression dependent upon the season.The disorder is more common among people who experience a longer winter and less hours of sunlight than people closure to the equator.

Kidney stones are also called renal calculi,which are hard,rock like deposits formed in the urinary tract. It is common (1% of population) and recurrent (50-80%) disorders that are usually preventable. Stones formation begins when urine becomes supersaturated with insoluble components due to excessive excretion or factors that diminish solubility.About 20%of kidney stones either from a general metabolism affecting the entire body or from a structural or metabolic problem of the kidney itself.

Metabolic problems include cystinuria and renal tubular acidosis.

Diseases of general metabolism that cause kidney stones are gout,hyperparathyroidism and abnormal intestinal absorption.

The remaining 80-90% of stone disease is idiopathic ( of unknown origin) . Idiopathic stone disease affects all ages. These stones are vary in size and there may be one or more.

Usually, these types of stones are :

1) calcium oxalate

2) calcium phosphate

3) struvita stone

4) uric acid stone – it occurs when urine is saturated with uric acid in the presence of an acid urine PH and dehydration.

4) cut down sodium – a low sodium diet is recommended for those who are stone prone

5) restricted animal protein – eating an excessive amount of animal proteins such as poultry,eggs, seafood and red meat increases the level of uric acid and could cause kidney stones.

6) a diet with high protein reduces the level of citrate,the chemical found in the urine which helps in the prevention of stone formation.

So, eat foods that are rich in magnesium, vitamin supplements as vitamin B6, vitamin C .

Appropriate medicine as advised by doctor

Last surgery or treated with ultrasonic shock therapy

These are the management and treatment for kidney stone diseases.

A deep thought about the future without fear

Fear or failure,fear or rejection that we are just not enough – fear can keep us locked up in the prison of the comfortable and predictable,which presents us from reaching our potential.

Don’t let fear control you.If you are living in fear , your anxieties have escalated to the point that they are running the show.

Many of us spend a lot of time of worry about the future and living in fear of the past or the present,that affects on our thoughts and health as well as on society. We create a habit of fear , when fear comes and we are upset and worried , the first thing we need to do is acknowledged that fear. We can recognise and embrace it rather than acting it out.

Our fear is not just from our own birth and childhood, the fear we feel comes from both our own and our activities. Our feeling and we show around us that many people are suffering from hunger and other changes in life and there were moments when we were extremely anxious. That kind of fear has been transmitted to us, everyone of us has that fear inside and because we suffer from that fear ,we make the situation worse.

We worry about our safety,our job and our family.we worry about external threats .

However,we can prepare for the future with planning and without getting consumed by our negative thoughts.Often we either don’t plan at all or we get caught up in obsessive planning because we fear the future and it’s uncertainty.The present moment is where we need to operate.So, we know,there is no losing ourselves in worries and fear concerning the future. If we are grounded in the present moment,we can bring the future into the present to have a deep look without losing ourselves in anxieties and uncertainty.

If we are truly determined and and know how to take care of the present situations or moment as best we can ,we are doing our best for the future already.

The same is true about the past. The teaching and practice of mindfulness don’t forbid looking deeply into the past.But if we allow ourselves to drawn in regret and sorrow concerning the past,that is not right mindfulness.If we are well established in the present situations,we can bring the past back to the present moment and have a deep look.we can very well examine the past and the future while we are established in the present moment. In fact, we can learn from the past and make a plan for the future in the best way if we are serious and giving deep thought in the present moment.

Dreaming

How can we let go of fear and relinquish the anger and violence in us? We must listen deeply and learn to practice the way how to control the anger and fear – meditation,yoga and calmness practice,which letting go of their fear and violence, anger.

Practising mindfulness of fear and looking deeply into its origin provide the answer.

Accept your past without regret, handle your present without confidence and face your future without fear.

Fear can’t coexist with positive emotions.we can not feel both scared and joyful or afraid and peaceful.
