This question i am asking for my wife who is 46 years old. We are in Ras al khaimah, UAE. She is facing issues with sleep. She is a house wife and our kids are grown up with only 2 daughters with us. Eldest daughter is doing her final year MBBS and second daughter completed her 12th and presently doing online coaching for NEET 2023. Youngest daughter is in 10th standard. She does all house hold chores herself. We follow strictly routine of 9.30 pm going to bed and get up at 5 am in the morning. She gets sleep by 12 or 1 pm and always get sleep deprived. She doesnt do any noon nap etc too. Kindly suggest how she can get over this issue. We are strictly vegetarian and since from south india loves coffee but limit to 1 only at around 10 or 10.30 am only.

Ans: Engaging her physical, emotional and mental faculties, working them out will help her
Physical exercices, emotional expressions through art, and actively engaging the mind in creative activities will bring in balance and help for restful sleep.
It is always the quality and not the quality of sleep that matters. If your wife is happy and active with that 4-5 hrs of sleep, then it's ok

Ans: Snorning could be related to a number of physical and other issues. It could be also linked to Obesity and overweight and other factors.
It would be a great starting point to visit a physician and get detailed work up done. The respiratory medicine or sleep medicine experts are other group of specialists who can guide the process.

I am 38 years old divorced men and I loss 18 lakh in option trading now a days I have no capital and not any income source mentality fully harassed can any body help me ,7 loan EMI Defaulter and 2 credit card defaulter please help

Ans: At 38, after a divorce and losing ?18 lakhs in options trading, with no income and multiple loan and credit card defaults, it’s understandable to feel overwhelmed. But this isn’t the end. First, speak to a credit counselor or financial advisor—many offer free services. Consider a one-time loan settlement with banks or restructuring. Focus on finding any stable income—gig work, freelancing, or part-time jobs—to begin rebuilding. Mental health support is just as important; talk to someone. You’re not alone, and this phase, while hard, can be turned around one step at a time. Keep hope alive. Regards, Nitin Narkhede -Founder, Prosperity Lifestyle Hub,

Ans: Hi Kamala,
The NTA has not yet announced the results and rankings for NEET, so we need to wait for more accurate predictions. However, based on your predicted marks, there is a chance of getting into GMC (ESIC quota) and it depends on various factors like the difficulty level of NEET exam and the number of seats. As I mentioned, it's best to wait for more reliable information before drawing any conclusions.
