First, stand up straight and bring your two hands to your chest in a salutation. Then, keeping the balance of the body, bend the knee of the right leg and bring the sole of the foot over the thigh of the left leg. Slowly move the hands evenly over the head in a Namaskar posture, keeping the spine straight. Stand on one leg in this pose for at least 30 seconds. Return to normal position and repeat the same action by switching legs.
Padmasana
First sit with right leg on left thigh and left leg on right thigh with spine straight. Now keep both hands straight on the knees. Breathing will be normal. Practice sitting like this for at least five minutes.
Anulom-Bilom
One side of the nose will be closed while inhaling. That is, first by holding the right nostril, inhale and exhale through the left side. Next, by pinching the left nostril, inhale and exhale through the right. The process of inhalation and exhalation in this pranayama will be completed in three steps. First take a short breath and then take a full breath. Exhalation time should be maintained in this rule.
On the other hand, during exhalation, it is necessary to breathe naturally through both nostrils at the same time. But like Anulom it will be in three stages. That is, first stop for two seconds with some breathing. You have to breathe again. Again stop for two seconds and take a full breath in the last step. Also leave in the same manner stopping at least in three steps.
Bhramari
First, sit on the mat with your legs straight and your legs folded. Keep the head and neck tight. Let both hands be on both knees. Now close your eyes and sit comfortably in this position. It is important to achieve this posture before starting the pranayama. Now look at the face. Keep the lips closed, but do not clench the teeth at all. Leave some space between the two teeth as well. Both hands should be straightened to the sides. Now fold from the elbow and bring it to the ear. Close the ear with the middle or middle finger. Now inhale slowly through the nose. Make a humming sound like a bee from the throat while exhaling through the nose. Do not open your mouth at all, the sound will come from the throat. Make a very slow hum on the exhale as long as you can. Source: Anandabazar Patrika Online.

How to prevent dengue
Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral fever. This fever is different from other viral or bacterial fevers. However, this fever is not contagious in any way. This viral fever can occur alone or in combination with other viruses (chikungunya, yellow fever, Burma forest, flu, respiratory syncytial) and bacteria (pneumococcus).
Dengue fever is divided into two categories depending on the severity of symptoms and fever.
1. Common dengue fever
2. Dengue fever with bleeding.
In the case of common dengue fever, the following symptoms are mainly seen-
1. Sudden high fever lasting 2 to 7 days.
2. Severe headache.
3. Pain behind the eyes.
4. Along with the fever, red rash appears all over the body.
5. Severe pain in whole body as well as back pain.
6. Nausea or vomiting.
7. A rash or red bumps on the skin.
In case of dengue fever with bleeding:
1. Bleeding from nose, mouth or vomiting with high fever within 2 to 48 hours.
2. Fluid accumulation in chest or abdomen along with fever.
If any of these symptoms appear, seek medical attention immediately.
On the other hand
Wait at home for the first 3 days of fever. On the other hand, sponge the whole body with water every now and then. This will reduce the level of fever. Drink enough water and rest. After that, if the fever does not decrease or if it continues to increase after some time, consult a doctor immediately.
Things to do to prevent Dengue:
1. Try to keep the surroundings of the house as clean as possible.
2. If there are flower tubs or broken plastic bottles, can shells, tires or polythene inside the house, clean them quickly and drain the accumulated water from the flower tubs.
3. Spray or fog at least 3 times a week to kill mosquitoes.
4. You can keep mosquito repellent cream with you while going out.
5. After evening, younger and older members of the household should use mosquito nets.
6. Clean up any accumulated rain water, as this is the time when Aedes mosquitoes lay their eggs.
7. On the other hand, you can use mats along with mosquito nets to avoid mosquito infestation.
8. Since Aedes mosquitoes bite during the day, it is important to avoid sleeping with mosquito nets while sleeping during the day. Source: https://dmpnews.org
