Aqua AerobicWater aerobics is often considered a low-intensity workout program appropriate only for pregnant women or the elderly. However, water aerobics actually offers multiple benefits for any fitness level. Water aerobics classes come in a variety of formats, including step, zumba, kickboxing, tai chi and yoga.

Low ImpactExercising in water makes you feel about 90 percent lighter, reports the American Council on Exercise.

When you jump or run in the water, your body does not experience the same impact that these moves cause on land. This makes water aerobics an ideal activity for those with arthritis, back prob-lems, foot or leg injuries, and knee conditions.

Pregnant women and the obese also benefit from the reduced impact.

Food Offering to MonkOffering food is one of the oldest and most common rituals of Buddhism.

About Food For Monk, A monk is allowed to collect, receive and consume food between dawn and midday (taken to be 12 noon).

He is not allowed to consume food outside of this time and he is not allowed to store food overnight. Plain water can be taken at any time without having to be offered.

Buddhists also believe that charity will receive the self in under forward and those who passed away. Because while it put a bowl. Minds of practitioners who would wish to imagine some-thing beautiful.

Food is given to monks during alms rounds and also ritually offered to tantric deities and hungry ghosts. Offering food is a meritorious act that also reminds us not to be greedy or selfish.

Today, in many predominately Theravada countries like Thailand, monks still rely on receiving alms for most of their food. The monks leave the monasteries early in the morning.

They walk single file, oldest first, carrying their alms bowls in front of them. Laypeople wait for them, sometimes kneeling, and place food, flowers or incense sticks in the bowls. Women must be careful not to touch the monks.

The Vijitt Resort Phuket features over 150 rubber trees, a tree that is fast disappearing on Phuket in the interests of commercial tourism, however we not only decided to keep our rubber trees but make them part of our environmental programme.
