Merinselevu, baby bath and massage, baby Yoga
I am a tamil south african who is now living in europe. I have started a family and find that i am lacking in knowledge about these topics. I have asked my mum but she does not have the background knowledge and detailed information.
I need to build on the vague knowledge I have about the following topics.
Merinselevu (birth masala), history of and its uses.
Indian babybath and massage:- I have watched this being practiced by my mother, some of the stretching and twisting looks very aggressive. I attended a massage course when my son was born and learnt about terms like indian milking. some of the excercises looked like those I have seen in my community back home.
Baby yoga, I started a mum and baby yoga course on friday with my daughter and again these excercises repeated themselves, okay I know yoga comes from India and I should not be surprised. I was introduced to a book as well.
I would like info on these topics and if you can refer me to sites or books written by Indian authors, books that would give me the traditional methods.
Thank you,
Fridge

Hi fridge,
Are you the same vivacious South African girl who used to visit the hub a few years back? If so, do you remember me??

Hi there
Yes I am the South African who used to frequent the hub before. Thank you for the links Shakthi, I will look them all up. I am also looking for any bits of information that one has learned from ones mothers or grandmothers.
Shekhar
I remember you, how are you doing? did you learn yet that women are a higher power and did find your rightful place worshiping one or are you still single?

No fridge.. I was not in Bangalore then. I was in a coastal town handling a Naval Project. That's how I got to see all those girls on the beach jogging in shorts and T shirts !!

Fridge.. I feel sad to see that you have forgotten all the wisdom I poured out in the hub which had I got from my experience of marriage.
See, when the husband is happy, the wife become doubtful+jealous+angry+desparate+perplexed+anxous. That's why she tries her best to keep her husband puppy on the leash.
Look at me, I am married and so happy . Just imagine how I would have been if I were NOT married !!!
