A request to the entire nation to stand on their balconies and clap for 5 minutes on 22nd March, has been made, as a gesture, to appreciate all those working towards abating the virus.
*Not many may have given it much thought and some may have even secretly mocked at this, but let me tell you how this is such a wonderful thing to do (you may chose to disagree😉)
Firstly, Clapping together for five minutes is Sound of Gratitude in every sense🙏 . C@RG
Now read on to know the scientific benefits:
- Clapping releases a chemical oxytocin, the love hormone which enhances immunity, this being the reason for people clapping and laughing during Yog classes
– - Clapping stimulates blood circulation, the lifeline of human body
We have receptors in the hands that are connected to sensory fields in the brain which on clapping , activates the brain and various body systems thus healing the body .C@Rg
– - Hands and palms have numerous reflex points that when stimulated help the body in healing of any ailment
– - There are pressure points in palms that are connected to all the vital parts of the body, thus clapping Enhances one’s IMMUNITY.
– - Clapping while praying or ringing bells is to connect to Bhagwan; invocation of God . (bhagwan ko avahan kar bulatay hain)
– - Sounds resonance transmits vibrations in atmosphere which kills bacteria.
- Just imagine the sound of collective energy of 130 crore people will be of what colossal scale, benefiting in more than one ways
So go on…. clap freely and wholeheartedly . C@RG
