Food is the Fuel

Arundhoti's Recipe - My YouTube Channel ( sharing recipe of Sahi Chicken at the end of the article) Food was always a passion to me. Since my college days, I always tried my hands in different recipes and cuisine. I always tried exotic cuisine in exotic restaurants whenever, I received a good money . But at the back of my mind it was always teaching - a teacher I wanted to become. I aspire to hold a good knowledge of finance, economics. I worked in schools and colleges, taught different professionals, Mba students about finance. But this pandemic taught how to survive the odds, since my college came to a closure, I had ample time and the boredom grasped me like a disease. Then I wanted to explore new avenues of life, I wanted to get out of the numbness of doing nothing, day after day & to feel I am incompetent.  Food was the way, the creativity and art in cooking, the knowledge of spices and flavours, gave me my new wings to fly.  In the lockdown, I cooked everyday

Art, Brain Functions, Learning & Imagination

When I hold a pencil to create a figure, I cut myself from all the distubances the world gave to me. I feel focused and an unique calmness touch my soul. What I create gives me  immense satisfaction and confidence. What I create gives me a sense that - "you are a creator". My paintings and sketches may not be up to the mark or work of a genius but completes me.If I sum up, I can say art is a therapy for me.  Studies says that people who practise more sketches, develop more problem solving attitude, as they need to visualise and create concepts in their mind, they tend to develop vision and concepts, how to resolve problems. The brain  gets trained to that particular way.  As parents are always thinking to give the best education to children, lessons of art always help children to generate an eye- hand co-ordination, what a child can see always try to depict that with the help of  hands, which sharpen his or her sense to produce something in a perfect manner.
