What exactly does Zen Mean?
Originally derived from the Japanese way of life, Zen implies much beyond the basic meaning of word. Zen in its essence, means an intense state of focus, incorporating a complete togetherness of body and mind. State of Zen involves detaching from stuff going around you and being able to focus and visualize on a deeper level with your thought processes.
For the un-initiated understanding the spiritual meaning of Zen is difficult to understand. No one can explain the meaning of Zen to another person, especially a guru or teacher. The spiritual meaning of Zen must be interpreted individually because it is neither a simple question nor an easy answer. It has to be understood by the seeker on his own by becoming practitioner and believing in the philosophy of Buddhism and Meditation.
Men’s Fashion: Jewelry Rules for Men
Rule #1: Swag up with Cuffs
Cuffs and bracelets are a current mens fashion essential. They look great with any look and add a bit of spice to a casual outfit!
6 easy ways to ramp up your fashion style
Fashion Styles for men have come a long way from a fancy shirt and slacks. Today, we have the choice of apparel from seasons to time of day to who we’re hangin with. Here are 5 pointers on how to ramp up your fashion style easily:
- Acknowledge the fact that a style of fashion means – Power for Men
A good sense of fashion can open up so many important doors, it’s insane! Dressing well has a lot more to it than just confidence, it makes you look as though you’re the best version of yourself that day even if you’re feeling down. A good fashion sense can really make an amazing first impression on everyone you meet.
- A few unique and personal outfits are Key
Rather than switching up outfits and styles again and again, try to come up with your own sense of style for different outings. One for casual everyday routines, one for dates and a classy suit outfit for your special occasions. If you replicate and mix up these three styles then you’ll have your very own unique dressing personality which is very attractive!
- Add a piece of Jewelry
Adding a piece of meaningful jewelry, be it a pendant on chain, spiritual beads bracelet or leather bracelet adds the appropriate bling and interest in your outfit. Heck, it also has the potential of becoming a start-up talking point for your meetings.
- You don’t necessarily have to jump on the Trend
Whether it be joggers or rompers for men, if you don’t like the style then there is no reason to jump onto the trend! However, if you do enjoy the recent trends then don’t be afraid to rock them either. As long as you stay true to your personal sense of fashion, you are set.
- It doesn’t have to be expensive to look Good
If you cannot afford name brand products, it doesn’t mean you can’t look equally as good. You can wear a pair of jeans that you got for $40 and no one will care whether they are name brand or not as long as they look cool on you!
- Don’t worry about what Others think
People are going to be jerks whether you like it or not. If they don’t approve of your fashion sense then ignore them and wear whatever you want. You only live once ~ embrace individuality and dress to please you and only you.
A brief history of men’s jewelry trends – from era of Kings and onwards…
King or Emperor, conjures up an image of royalty, opulence and a life of luxury. Since ancient times, kings have known to wear jewelry pieces as a symbol of grandeur.

“The Force,” aka the mystical powers from Star Wars, is divided between the Light Side and the Dark Side.

🙇 Meditation as a Mind Control Tool 🛠
In the past three years, most important habit I’ve formed is Meditation. Hands down, bar none. Ripple effects of Meditation have shown up on many other aspects of my life, abandoning a few bad habits, becoming more peaceful, getting my attention back from non stop outflow of various media and most importantly ability to sit quietly in a room alone.
Look around, the entire city — country? world? — seems to be infected by a disease, harbored on by a deluge of technology. The constant demand for our attention, our need to look fabulous and important, apps with notifications on, games which lead you on to infinite levels — each person we see today is inadvertently hooked onto their smart phones.
6 Tools for Mind Control
Steve Jobs, who was a master of mind control and living and working purposefully, learned to seize control over his success and his life by asking himself one important question in the mirror every morning:
If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?’ If the Answer is ‘no’ for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.
This year, make a commitment
Did you set a resolution for 2017? If yes, be honest with this question:
