Saffola Aura- The new Super Oil in Town

Health is a not just a trending topic but an introspective call for so many of us. Easily tired and exhausted due to toxicity and lifestyle issues, we need to introspect about health. I recently had the opportunity to discuss this on the occasion of the launch of Acitve8me Fitness.


Recently I attended the launch of the new Super Oil - Saffola Aura,  at an event at Smoke House Deli with celebrity chef Kunal Kapur and celebrity nutritionist Pooja Makhija. A never seen before creation, Saffola Aura is a unique Oil that blends two trending super foods - Olive Oil and Flaxseed oil - for the first time ever. Now, this one Oil gives you the benefits of both Omega-3 and powerful anti-oxidants that help renew your body cells every day.

At the event,  chef Kunal and nutritionist Pooja chatted with bloggers who had congregated from across India, about how Saffola Aura is the perfect wellness choice for today’s lifestyle. Whether you are preparing a wholesome salad or a bowl of yummy pasta, you can detoxify and renew yourself with every meal.Chef Kunal also showed his exemplary culinary skills by using Saffola Aura in mango pickle. It is a unique thing and it tasted superb, and I couldn't even find the taste of mustard oil missing. 

Speaking at the event, celebrity chef Kunal Kapur said, “The new Super Oil, Saffola Aura, is a welcome addition to all our kitchens. It is a first-of-its-kind blend of two super foods that will renew your body cells every time you eat a meal.”



Celebrity nutritionist Pooja Makhija added, “With the amount of external stress we face in our modern, fast-paced lives, it is important to renew ourselves from within. This new Saffola Aura does just that with its omega 3 and antioxidant properties. It is indeed a Super Oil for a Super You!”



The event also saw a cook-off challenge between the bloggers, where we had to showcase their talent using the new Super Oil. I was in the team no. 8 which sadly didn't win. Even though Jai and Ekta really did an awesome job. All through the event, the serving staff of the Deli kept bringing awesome food and mocktails. Fish, chicken, mushroom, added to the gaiety of the event.


Finally, the evening ended with we all packing off home, discussing the usefulness of this new age cooking oil and its application in our daily life.

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...

Legions of Slave Women in the Mahabharata

Awakening to the Bhagavad Gita (series) - 1 For, taking refuge in Me, they also, who, O Arjuna, may be of sinful birth— women, Vaisyas as well as Sudras—attain the Supreme Goal! How much more easily then the holy Brahmins and devoted royal saints (attain the goal); having obtained this impermanent and unhappy world, do thou worship Me. The Bhagavad Gita, Chap 9, Ver 32, 33 So women are of sinful birth! As well as all kinds of workers, business men, entrepreneurs, most of the general population. The only people of virtuous births are priests — Brahmins — and royal saints, meaning saintly royals, meaning noble Kshatriyas. No wonder then that Yudhishthira — to reinstate whom this whole Mahabharata war has been fought — maintained hundreds of thousands of slave women! Take that number again: hundreds of thousands! He had so much gold, he could afford to. He had so much virtue, but he wanted more! Let's find the facts and figures from Draupadi's own wo...
