Students from IIT Madras join hands with Art of Living volunteers to clean a pond in the city.

The plastic waste from the pond was segregated and will be shredded and used for laying roads.

Chennai: Over the past five months, an arm of the Art of Living has been working quietly on reviving 10 ponds along the OMR that come under Zone 15 (Sholinganallur) of the Corporation of Chennai. This includes 4 ponds in Semmencherry, 3 in Thoraipakkam and 2 each in Karapakkam and Sholinganallur wards.

Volunteers turned up in good strength for the weekly pond cleaning drive, working for more than three hours to remove 1 tonne of solid waste from the Karapakkam Karyam pond along the OMR. Students from IIT Madras joined volunteers from Art of Living on the drive. with a few from Lioness Club also chipping in.

The plastic waste from the pond was segregated and will be shredded and used for laying roads. The other wastes included bottles, clothes, paper products, etc.

The programme had started with an SOS from the Corporation Zone 197 when the AoL arrested the death of fishes in Sengeniamman temple in Nilankarai through enzyme treatment.

The programme to clean several water bodies in the City is a combination of pond cleaning, tree plantation and awareness creation. The programme beings with a recce of the pond and the safety of volunteers is ensured before taking up cleaning, besides providing tools and orientating the volunteers with specific methods and techniques for efficient working. Local corporation offices also support the programme.

Chennai is a city of extreme water related calamities year after year with deadly floods during the rainy season and severe droughts during summer. Rampant loss of waterbodies to urbanisation, unauthorised encroachments, unchecked pollution and poor maintenance of ponds and lakes have caused this terrible impact on nature and the city.

The AoL, with a proven model to rejuvenate water bodies across India, has come up with this sustained initiative. After consultations with civic agencies, AoL got approval from Corporation of Chennai to revive its water bodies across the city.

The holistic programme is expected to produce sustained results in 423 waterbodies in the city.

The scope of the cleaning and restoration programme includes — Enzyme treatment of pond water to clean the dirty water and remove the algae; desilting the pond and strengthening its bund to increase storage; removing solid waste and weeds from the pond to increase oxygen content and remove toxins; planning trees along the bund to increase green cover and improve the biodiversity and extensive awareness campaigns for active involvement of local community and sustenance of the programme.

[www.keralites.net] HOW TO TREAT EXCESS STOMACH GAS & BLOATING

How to Treat Excess Stomach Gas & Bloating!
A large percentage of the population suffers from stomach gas from time to time, yet it's rarely discussed, usually because we're too embarrassed to say we're feeling gassy. Nevertheless, stomach gas and bloating is becoming more prevalent due to modern food groups which encourage the build-up of gas in our system, causing a very uncomfortable feeling, and a lot of pain.
Causes of stomach gas build-up
Gas is mainly formed due to small fragmented stool as a result of eating a refined diet lacking in vegetable fiber. These fragmented stools remain in the colon for too long, allowing colonic bacteria to ferment them. On the other hand, a high fiber diet will produce bulky stool, causing very little gas to be formed.
bloating
Symptoms of stomach gas:
• Frequent passing of gas
• Feeling bloated
• Loss of appetite
• Abdomen feels 'tight'
• Belching
• Jabbing chest pain
• Getting rid of the excess stomach gas
1. Lie down or try a different position
Lie down and keep your head elevated as this position will cause the discomfort to pass in a few minutes. Remain in this position until the discomfort you're feeling is gone. You can lie down on your side, but still keep your head elevated.
If you are in distress, you can try to curl up so your head is touching the floor and your rear is in the air, this will encourage the passing of gas from your system.
Of course, when you are trying to push the gas out of your abdomen, make sure to do so on an empty stomach, or over a toilet.
2. Drink more

Having excess gas in your stomach is usually a sign of poor digestion. Drinking plenty of fluid helps move the undigested remnants of the food from the colon. This is especially true if you've eaten a lot of fiber rich foods, which encourage undigested food particles to accumulate in the colon. So drink up.
Hot liquids help the most, try herbal tea, but even coffee will help get that gas moving.
3. Add mustard

Mustard is said to decrease the amount of gas in the body as well as preventing its build-up, so try adding it to one of your daily meals.
4. Baking Soda

Add a spoonful of baking soda to a cup of hot water and mix well. Drink this every couple of hours for quick relief.
5. Add Indian spices

Turmeric, cumin and cardamom are known to aid good digestion.
6. Add ginger

Adding ginger to your food or chewing on the root will offer quick relief and aid your digestion.
7. Certain fruit can help

Drink lemon juice or other citrus fruit juices. The papaya is a wonderful fruit to eat when bloated, and is one of the best means for getting rid of gas quickly.
8. Avoid carbonated drinks

Consuming carbonated drinks is a big no-no if you want to decrease the amount of gas in the body. Drinking these will lead to an increase in gas and may also lead to chest pain.
