Body Temple.... Timelessness

Timelessness on the time line.... We constantly keep hearing a phrase that our body is our temple where the soul or the God light resides, how much do we take care of this temple so that on time line of age we follow a therapeutic path. Detox nowadays is one word heard about a lot correlated with diet.... But the biggest question is that do we know that our skin is the largest organ of our body which protects all the vital organs, be it heart, lungs kidney or liver. Skin plays multiple roles of all above organs releasing excess water, urea, maintaining body temperature, oil balance, absorbing Vitamin D and many more. The quality of our skin defines our health.


Of late India is witnessing a sea change in terms of the supply of Spas and spa culture evolving. This is actually an age old therapy carried forward from our ancestors who knew better how to take care of themselves and used to spend lot of time with their body, mind and soul. Be it meditation or body massages... Turkey is known for its hamams, Kerala famous for therapies.. The list is endless, massage is a forgotten art and science which is regaining its benefits in a more commercialised way in the modern age. It works on all our systems, circulation, excretion, lipid, nervous and muscular... So probably now it makes more sense to think of massage more as a therapy than a beauty treatment.


While on my trip to Mumbai, being inclined on this method of rejuvenation, I was out for a spa hunt.. It's also very essential to make a right choice when there is oversupply of such places...right choice in terms of the quality of therapists and overall SAFE zone.. So, I landed into hotel Grand Sarovar Premiere in Goregaon west, luckily I was residing nearby which is another luxury in a city like Mumbai.


Tattva, a recently inaugurated Spa looked like it was there waiting for me.. Well Trained therapists, excellent interiors, well managed and coordinated is the place. As the name goes, our Body Temple is made of five tatvas or elements, hence the rooms too have been designed on the same lines each designated a name of the Tatva in our body..




Anisha, the Spa manager ensures the comfort of the guests. It's extremely essential to make a right choice as the massage not only works on various sciences, combining acupressure, muscle stretches and oil massage which not only releases toxins but muscle tension, nervous system and mental relaxation.


Swedish massage which I had opted for begins with a proper ritual. One is offered a Kokum drink, a coolant, followed by a a fifteen minute steam which opens the pores of the entire skin and releases uric acid in form of sweat, the pores opened are also ready to absorb oil into your system followed by a foot soak, sixty minute massage, a shower and another refreshing drink.


Four stars to this indulgence.. No no i would rather call it an essence... An investment on your body to later not spend that amount on medicines and towards Timelessness on the timelines.

The Millenial tower - Burj Al Arab  Indians have forgotten Canada and US (seems so..) especially after the setting up new Trump norms... so where do all heads turn and why? 1. Distance : Travel time from Delhi to Dubai is 3.5 hours and if we talk about Gujarat, Punjab, Kerala and Maharashtra they are geographically more towards the west, therefore the travel time to The Emirates is even lesser than any other Indian town on the extreme corner. Therefore, Dubai travel is cost effective and easily accessible. 2. Visa : Relaxed norms with consultants from both countries growing in numbers to assist Indians settle in Dubai, both for entrepreneurs and job seekers. 3. Population : Potential of any economy to thrive lies in its people, Population thus holds biggest Poten...

"Wife or a Whore?" Or Dust under her feet!

Lets change the narrative.. the perspective and positioning !! Well, this is one statement which after a certain age applies to women.. pls note the word "AGE"!! This was mentioned in a book reading session by Sharbari Zohra Ahmed, in her Debut Novel,   "Dust under her feet!" The  Quantico  scriptwriter moves from an International thriller, expressing a high voltage drama series for Hollywood and now back into the 1940s, where her story revolves around Yasmine Khan, the protagonist. Sharbari expresses that it was probably Yasmine Khan, the focal point chose her, cause while writing the fiction,  she could clearly go back into times and see the visuals of the yesteryears when World War II had set in.. There is a lot which Sharbari has contributed into this novel, above her body mind and soul.. fifteen years have gone into crafting the epic! What beyond? The Author has actually gone to the libraries of Kolkata, dug out their archival section, newspapers, magazines, hu...

Sands to Skyscrapers: Dubai’s Architectural Marvels

A New Dawn in the Desert By: Kulveen Narula “The future belongs to those who can imagine it, design it, and execute it. It isn't something  you await, but rather create.” — H. H. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum A t the turn of the millennium, while the world was celebrating the arrival of Y2K , a quiet revolution had begun brewing in the Middle East. The United Arab Emirates, particularly Dubai , was preparing to reimagine itself—not just as a city but as a symbol of human possibility. From a land once known only for its sands and souks, rose a futuristic skyline that rivals the best on Earth. In just 25 years , Dubai evolved into a global epicentre of design, engineering, and luxury—where the homo sapiens are actually living on Cloud 9, giving us a strong dream etched on sand, which didn't disappear overnight but amplified year on year imparting a twinkle in the eye of millions in the world to light up a dream.  The Visionary Behind the Rise The transformation is no...
