<h3>Hello Everyone!</h3>
First of all thank you for visiting my blog, my name is Rea I am the main author and maker of this website.

&nbsp;
<h4>What is Kahlmah?</h4>
Kahlmah is a health and wellness blog

&nbsp;
<h4>Where did it all start?</h4>
Let me begin by sharing what I do for a living, I am a nurse by profession. Nursing is an admirable vocation, being a nurse made me appreciate life better. However part of the job is to be constantly exposed to stress. Everyday you are surrounded by people with different illness, you are challenged to make that right critical decision, you are expected to be compassionate and understanding, you race time to finish everything and at the end of your shift you go home feeling drained and exhausted yet you still have house chores to do. A similar scenario may be true to all of you working for a living. It is a proven fact that stress is a huge factor for developing diseases.

&nbsp;
<h4>Some of which are</h4>
<ul>
 	<li><span style="color: #800000;">Heart diseases</span></li>
 	<li><span style="color: #800000;">Gastrointestinal problems</span></li>
 	<li><span style="color: #800000;">Obesity</span></li>
 	<li><span style="color: #800000;">Depression</span></li>
 	<li><span style="color: #800000;">Anxiety</span></li>
 	<li><span style="color: #800000;">Alzheimer’s Disease</span></li>
 	<li><span style="color: #800000;">Diabetes</span></li>
 	<li><span style="color: #800000;">Headache and Migraine</span></li>
 	<li><span style="color: #800000;">Muscle Pain</span></li>
</ul>
Also, scientific studies have proven that stress can accelerate the ageing process.

&nbsp;

Stress is scientifically proven to be a problem however we continue to tolerate it, of coarse we have to tolerate it, stress unfortunately is part of todays way of living but we can do something about it.

I have had and still sometimes have issues with sleeping and I suffer from migraine, which at one point became chronic then one day I said to myself “I cannot just accept this I have to do something about it”, I went online and stumbled on an article about meditation so I tried it. After the 20 min session I felt a sense of relief, my body was so relaxed and it was as if I had been switched off and turned back on refreshed.

I made a decision that day to take control of my health and well being. I now practice meditation and Yoga (which is a form of active meditation). It has improved my over all health tremendously.

&nbsp;

Let us take control of our health and well being before a disease takes control of our body and takes over our life.
