The Yin and Yang in Feng Shui

The Yin represents the feminine, repose and Yang the masculine movement.
For Chinese sages of antiquity Yin and Yang are born of "Wu Chi", the Tao, the original steam this figure represented by a perfect circle, a uterus, an unfertilized egg, a great void.

Once fertilized (the Big Bang, the beginning of the universe) comes the first expression of life, "Tai Chi" or Yin and Yang, two forms of energy interact in the universe as they grow and divide the circle into two halves together Yin (black) and one Yang (white).

Each side is a time of change, the transition from Yin to Yang's "Creation" and the transition to Yin Yang is the "Return". The representation of Yin and Yang, two independent means balancing energy in motion. These forces are present all around us.


The Yin is the feminine, earth, moon, night, shadow, stillness, descending it, so moving, the cold, the soft.
The Yang is masculine, sky, sun, day, light, activity, movement, upward, hot, how hard.

The Yin (rest) and Yang (movement) generate constant cycles of change in which each becomes the other, when the Yin Yang and vice versa (interaction) appears wanes.

This interaction generates energy emanations that give life to all beings. We can see this interaction in nature for example in the form of the 4 seasons, the yang is reflected in the summer and yin in the winter chill.

In modern representation of Yin and Yang, the black dot in the white part indicates that exists within the Yin Yang and vice versa.

The Yin and Yang are relative and not absolute. They emerge from the Heaven and Earth Yin and Yang.

The Yin and Yang in turn emerge Movement and Stillness. In Feng Shui, Ying and Yang has a different conception which explain in school forms.

Electronic Cigarette does a real alternative quit smoking?

Electronic cigarettes are ultimately stand as a popular alternative to go leaving nicotine. Created by big industries under the slogan of "quit smoking is possible ", is being marketed by leaps and bounds becoming suddenly a mass phenomenon where famous, we are already appearing with such attractive colors striking cigarettes all crave.


Electronic Cigarette

They feature eye-catching designs, operating through a mechanism where the user simply breathing vapor and sold at relatively affordable prices. But ... are they really safe? What do the experts say electronic cigarettes? Are less harmful than regular cigarettes filled with nicotine, tar and other carcinogens?


How do electronic cigarettes work?

A glance seem pens elegant designs. According to the companies that sell them do not require continuous puffs as normal cigarettes, but sporadic. It has a battery and atomizer where the liquid is transformed into steam as it passes through a resistor, and people inhale from the mouthpiece of the device is stored.

The liquid that is inhaled (or "vapea") includes  nicotine levels , in addition to propylene glycol, vegetable glycerin and flavor extracts obtained from herbs or fruit. Sophisticated technology together with LED lights and a battery to allow them to have autonomy and the mechanism of steam going.


The other side of electronic cigarettes

Start saying something that certainly makes clear the current status of electronic cigarettes: "The WHO recommended the use of the electronic cigarette, warning that contains some substances identical to conventional cigarette and also has effects still unknown long term. " Ante this recommendation the reality of these devices and presents the double-edged risk, people have accessed them with the idea of quitting, but now it seems that is not really a suitable alternative. But look more aspects:



  • WHO initiated several investigations where there are still some outstanding issues confirmation, but for now, it concludes with the idea that the implicit health benefits associated with electronic cigarettes, are unfounded or may be based on false information of companies the market. No help quit smoking, contain high concentrations of propylene glycol,  a very harmful when inhaled irritant , is toxic and can do much damage to our lungs.
  • A group of researchers from the University of Athens , Greece, made ​​several investigations into the use of electronic cigarettes with different non-smokers, smokers and smokers with lung disease known as chronic COPD. In all showed an immediate increase in the resistance pathways respiratory decreasing power air baffle and oxygen, further increasing the problems of asthma.
  • Medical organizations, meanwhile, discourage the electronic cigarette to stop smoking, because (although in much smaller quantities) , still contain harmful elements such as conventional snuff nicotine, ethylene glycol,  tar, heavy metals .. etc. Moreover the steam available in the combustion substances, generates toxins are also scattered in the air, which impair not only the consumer.
  • For many, electronic cigarettes are a tobacco industry strategy , as were menthol cigarettes, or so-called "light" at the time, all encouraged by the decline in consumption of snuff to the global crisis, the laws in force where already prohibits smoking in many public spaces, and changes in smoking habits, which are curiously the  women who are starting to smoke more than men, hence both companies strive to create elegant electronic cigarettes and attractive designs to open new markets and attract customers, trying to spiraling nicotine never be over.
  • Doctors, meanwhile also have it clear. Electronic cigarettes are effective for smoking cessation because it contains nicotine, which although less than ordinary, is still there "Containing nicotine dependence remains users, thus the industry will never end "


Thus we conclude recommending that if a member of electronic cigarettes, limit your intake as much as possible: for now its use is spreading like an attractive tool that is fashionable, but can not say it's a suitable partner to leave smoking.

If you really want to stop your addiction, there are many alternatives in the market and especially within the natural medicine . The first step is definitely your strong will, control the moments of anxiety that almost always are associated with the time of day when you used to have a cigarette in your hands , nothing more waking up, after meals, with coffee in those meetings with friends or family ... It all depends on you, the choice of quitting definitely worth effort and sacrifice, for the sake of your own health.
