Vitality at Every Age: Secrets to Lifelong Health for Women

Vitality at Every Age: Secrets to Lifelong Health for Women

Dr. Smrithi D Nayak, Consultant – Obstetrics & Gynaecology

In today’s world, women have more control than ever over their health and well-being. With advances in medicine, nutrition, and fitness, age is truly just a number. Women in their 40s, 50s, and beyond are staying active, feeling vibrant, and living healthier lives. The key lies in adopting the right habits and maintaining a positive mindset.

Prioritize Regular Exercise

Staying active is one of the best ways to maintain health and vitality. Exercise improves heart health, strengthens bones, and keeps muscles toned. Women should focus on a mix of:
• Cardio workouts like walking, jogging, cycling, or swimming to keep the heart strong.
• Strength training to maintain muscle mass and bone density, reducing the risk of osteoporosis.
• Flexibility and balance exercises such as yoga or Pilates to enhance mobility and prevent falls.
• Just 30 minutes of movement daily can make a significant difference in long-term health.

Follow a Nutritious Diet

What women eat plays a crucial role in how they feel as they age. A balanced diet should include:
• Lean proteins (chicken, fish, beans, tofu) to maintain muscle strength.
• Healthy fats (avocados, nuts, olive oil) for brain function and heart health.
• Plenty of fiber from fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to aid digestion.
• Calcium and vitamin D to support strong bones and prevent osteoporosis.
• Limiting processed foods, refined sugars, and excessive alcohol can also help maintain energy levels and prevent chronic illnesses.

Take Care of Hormonal Health

Hormonal balance is essential for overall well-being. As women age, estrogen levels decline, which can affect mood, metabolism, and bone health. Consulting a gynecologist or fertility specialist can help manage hormonal changes through:
• Lifestyle adjustments
• Natural supplements
• Hormone replacement therapy (if necessary)

Prioritize Mental and Emotional Well-Being

Staying healthy is not just about physical fitness—it’s also about mental and emotional balance. Stress, anxiety, and lack of sleep can accelerate aging. To maintain well-being:
• Practice mindfulness and meditation to reduce stress.
• Engage in hobbies and activities that bring joy.
• Build strong social connections to stay emotionally fulfilled.
• Ensure quality sleep (7-9 hours per night) for proper body recovery.

Stay on Top of Health Screenings

Preventive care is crucial for long-term health. Regular check-ups and screenings help detect potential health issues early. Women should prioritize:
• Annual gynaecological exams with PAP smear and USG scan.
• Mammograms (as per age and risk factors)
• Bone density tests
• Heart health check-ups (cholesterol, blood pressure, diabetes screening)

Aging is a natural process, but how women age is in their control. By staying active, eating well, managing stress, and prioritizing health check-ups, women can feel younger, stronger, and more vibrant at any age. It’s never too late to invest in self-care—because age truly is just a number!

Transcendental Meditation Meets The 20-20 Rule: A Path to Unstoppable Growth

Transcendental Meditation Meets The 20-20 Rule: A Path to Unstoppable Growth

New Delhi, 21st March 2025: To fully prosper, we require more than simply effort, mental clarity, emotional resilience, and creative brilliance. Enter the 20-20 Rule: 20 minutes of Transcendental Meditation each morning and evening. This stunningly simple yet profoundly powerful practice is swiftly emerging as the secret to achieving optimal health, unbounded enjoyment, and peak performance in all aspects of life.

Neuroscientists showed that during TM practice, the brain produces extremely high-power alpha waves. When these waves sync together, the brain’s executive judgment gets strengthened. No other form of meditation has produced such steady alpha coherence across the brain. Researchers have shown that the ability to “transcend” restores neurological balance, inner silence, and clarity of mind.

A new book, World-Class Brain, looks at the brain power of top performers. Based on research on Olympic athletes, top executives, and symphony orchestra musicians, it establishes the connection between high performance and brain integration, as proven by electroencephalogram (EEG) measures. EEG is a non-invasive tool that records brain wave patterns in order to shed light on how different areas communicate and coordinate with each other.

On the other hand, TM becomes a technique where, along with regular practice, the brain becomes much clearer and integrated by research, thus contributing to improved memory, heightened creativity, increased understanding, and heightened concentration. The book goes on to show that TM is the only scientifically confirmed meditation technique that enhances intra- and inter-hemispheric EEG coherence, leading to improved IQ, academic achievement, emotional stability, autonomous esteem, and moral reasoning.

Speaking on this occasion, Ms. Aditi Shrivastava, Senior Transcendental Meditation Teacher states, “TM is more than just a wellness practice; it Is an enhancement tool for life that benefits everybody. It is practiced from students and parents to professionals or someone who is looking for a deeper sense of fulfillment. With the help of the 20-20 Rule, one can reduce stress, improve focus, and cultivate a profound sense of inner calm.”

Outside of that, TM is also gaining recognition in schools, workplaces, health institutes, and other personal wellness programs as a method to relieve stress and improve the quality of life. The 20-20 Rule properly acknowledges the existence of living proof in favor of time-tested science as a student, working-class professional, parent, or any other.  The more popular, awareness increases, and TM continues to stand tall as the transformative medium into the practice of awakening human potential.

Air New Zealand Welcomes Codeshare Deal with Air India, Plans Direct Connectivity

Air New Zealand Welcomes Codeshare Deal with Air India, Plans Direct Connectivity

Chandigarh, March 21, 2025 – Star Alliance Partners Air New Zealand and Air India today signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the objective of boosting air connectivity between India and New Zealand.

The MoU was signed at an event in Mumbai in the presence of Honourable Prime Minister of New Zealand, Mr Christopher Luxon, and other dignitaries.

The MoU includes the establishment of a new codeshare partnership on 16 routes between India, Singapore, Australia, and New Zealand, conferring travellers more choice and convenient access between the two countries.

Customers will now be able to travel from the Indian cities of Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Chennai on Air India, and connect at Sydney, Melbourne or Singapore onto Air New Zealand-operated flights to Auckland, Christchurch, Wellington and Queenstown.

Besides improving customers’ ease of booking and travel, the codeshare aims to increase visibility of the respective markets as tourism destinations.

The MoU will also see Air New Zealand and Air India explore the introduction of a direct service between India and New Zealand by the end of 2028, subject to new aircraft deliveries and approvals from relevant government regulators.

Air New Zealand Chief Executive Greg Foran emphasised the strategic significance of India as a future destination, highlighting its rapidly expanding tourism market and increasing travel demand.

“India represents a key growth market for Air New Zealand, and we are excited about the opportunity to enhance connectivity for travellers between our two countries. This codeshare agreement is an important first step, offering more options for customers while we work to understand what a direct service could look like.

“Today’s event underscores the significance of the India market to New Zealand, not only for tourism but also for strengthening business and education ties. We are committed to working collaboratively to grow the travel market over the coming years, ensuring a strong foundation for a successful direct service by 2028,” said Foran.

Campbell Wilson, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer, Air India, said: “As part of Air India’s ongoing transformation, we have been expanding our global network using our own aircraft as well as through new or expanded codeshare agreements with other airlines, chiefly our Star Alliance partners.

We are delighted to be deepening our relationship with Air New Zealand, which follows the recent expansion of our codeshare partnerships with Lufthansa Group, Singapore Airlines, and All Nippon Airways. This partnership will not only strengthen our presence and simplify customer journeys, but also help us develop traffic so that, in time to come, we may viably operate a non-stop service between India and New Zealand, which we and Air New Zealand have committed to explore together with the respective authorities.”

With India emerging as a growing tourism and business hub, this partnership reflects the airline’s commitment to delivering enhanced travel experiences while supporting trade, tourism, and economic growth.

Currently, Air New Zealand customers travelling between New Zealand and India benefit from strong connectivity options via Singapore Airlines, offering a smooth transit through Singapore. The prospect of a future direct route would further strengthen the relationship between the two countries, providing more efficient and accessible travel opportunities.

The MoU also outlines Tourism New Zealand’s commitment to growing inbound tourism from the Indian market. Tourism New Zealand’s research shows that 18 million people in New Delhi, Bangalore and Mumbai are actively considering traveling to New Zealand, making it a key emerging market. More than 80,000 international travellers arrived from India last year, 23% more than in 2019.

The long-term growth potential is significant, with India ear-marked as one of the fastest-growing outbound travel markets. Indian travellers are keen to explore New Zealand’s vibrant landscapes, film sets and rich cultural opportunities.

Tourism New Zealand Chief Executive Rene de Monchy said: “It’s fantastic to see Air New Zealand and Air India working on stronger international connectivity between the two countries. We know improved aviation links have a crucial role to play in the growth of international tourism and will make it easier for Indian travellers to come and enjoy a holiday in New Zealand.

“An added bonus is that travellers from India also have a strong tendency to visit New Zealand in the off-peak months that coincide with their major holiday periods.”
