The first period is a sacred rite. In south India, families celebrate this passage into maturity with much pomp. But, does the girl really understand what is happening to her and what it signifies?

Twenty years back, my friend introduced me into the mysteries of womanhood. She used to share the whispers she had heard among her adult cousins. We were too young to understand what all it meant and as a result not ready for the change awaiting us.

None of our mothers had talked to us. On the contrary, my mother was herself embarrassed to talk to me. First time it happened, I discussed with my friends and after three days talked to my mom. She had not known how to broach the topic.

Times have changed since then. Lot more information is available and society itself has woken up to awareness regarding such issues. I am sure teenagers today do not find it as difficult to talk about taboos with their mothers now.

But, if you are still shy and do not know how to talk to your daughter about her first period, here are some pointers which might help you prepare for the interview.

How to talk to your daughter about her first period?

Right Age to Talk

The kids are growing faster these days. The average age for the onset of menstruation has dropped from 12 to anywhere between 8 and 13. No doubt it is hard decide when it would be a good time to talk provided they are also too young to understand what it signifies. And, no butterflies stories either!

What Are the Important Gyming Gears?

Way back in June, P had enrolled in a nearby gym. Do not even bother to ask how many days he has been going, though! It is so damn easy to skip the gym 🙁 Anyways, before he had enrolled, we specially went to shop for his shoes. But, not only shoes but clothing and other things also matter when you are hitting the gym. So, check out what all you need to take care of!

Sweat Shirt

Go for the ones that promote healthy air circulation to your skin and absorb your sweat at the same time. High Sweat absorption rates will hide your water losing details and hence help you workout more. Choose wisely keeping in mind your routine. Lower your risks of discomforts wearing a loose outfit that may not stick to your body when wet.

Bottoms

Choosing your lower half wears must be a wise and efficient decision. It’s the length that will actually matter. Be it a pair of shorts or knee length pants what you are actually going to do in the gym with them on you is all what matters. Don’t pick out a tight outfit that may tear out during your exercises. Be concerned about your movements and feel free to have a workout. Excessively long pants may cause you serious problems after getting stuck in a treadmill or so. Search out what is best for you and go for the right choice.

Shoes and Socks

Wear an ethnic pair of shoes that make you comfortable while doing your daily stuff at the gym. Sweaty and smelly feet are a great mood-offs and hence avoid choosing such materials inefficient in handling your body sweat. Wear soft cotton socks and high quality material shoes that lower your risk of any foot disease. Your Shoes should be well supportive, properly ventilated and cushioned. Go for some Good quality source that may not only glamour your personality but also make you feel light.

Head-Gear

Wearing a simple skullcap or a beanie is the best option to absorb the sweat that flows down your head. Don’t allow the sweat to wash down through your eyes or let your hair obstruct your workouts.

Gloves

If you are practising weight-lifting at your end, go for a protective pair of gloves that will prevent your hands from getting scared and getting any injuries. Go for a flexible and reliable pair to get relief and satisfaction.

Swimsuit

Buy an elegant swim suit if you are a great fan of swimming and like to do so at a regular basis. Fetch around two swimsuits at least to have your swimming practice at daily basis. Wear the one that fits you and make you comfortable.

Main Concern: Your gym schedule may include different activities ranging from simple pushups to High machine workouts. Different Activities may demand for different outfits. So, you can decide according to your needs and your exercise schedules that which ones do you really need to invest in!

Coup-o-nation!!

So, How many times have you bought online by now? Well, for me, the count is like around last one year, almost everything was done online. Well, am I fan of online shopping? Nah, I still like the idea of going to shops and checking out things, especially books.

But, things are still easy online when you are feeling lazy. And, now the good part is you have so many coupons which you can use to avail discounts on the websites. Sounds awesome, right? I recently came to know of the coupon culture in US and now its in India!

Anyways, let me recount what happened yesterday. My dad is gonna come to Hyderabad so he needed to finish the hotel booking. And, only recently, I came to know of Couponation. So, I was very happy to direct dad to the site when he asked me if I had any coupons or discounts!

And, guess what, he got a damn good deal on the hotel booking. But, the flight was booked just a day before when I totally forgot to tell him about the website. So, that was sad. But, still I went and checked out the website for what coupons it had and it had some good deals for Makemytrip, Yatra and GoIbibo (well, that’s my favorite of all).

So, that was quite an experience, huh! Oh btw, in case you are thinking you have to waste money buying the coupons, its free! You don’t have to even register which is like awesome coz I totally hate going to a site and getting a page which says fill in your details.

So, have you shopped coupons yet?
