10 Things You Didn’t Know About Bali

Bali’s position as a relaxed, sunny tourist destination with lovely beaches and great Bali accommodation is well known. See how many of these other intriguing facts you were aware of:
1. Balinese People Commonly Have One of Four Names – Wayan, Made, Nyoman and Ketut
Theses obloquy are used for the first, second, third and fourth born respectively, so don’t be surprised if you keep meeting people with the same names! Putu, Kadek, and Komang can also be used for first, second and third borns.
2. Bali Is Known As The “Island of the Gods” , With An Estimated 20,000 Temples and Shrines
With such a massive amount of temples, it is not surprising to note that Balinese Hinduism pervades most facets of traditional life, with ornate rituals regularly seen around these temples and shrines.
3. Bali is a Predominantly Hindu Island, in a Predominantly Muslim Country.
Around 93% of Bali’s inhabitants are Hindu, with around 5% being Muslim. This is the reverse of Indonesia overall, where 86% of the population are Muslim, and only around 3% Hindu. Bali became a Hindu refuge centuries ago, as Islam gained influence in Java.
4. Mount Agung, an Active Volcano, and Bali’s Highest Peak At 3,142 m (9,426 feet), Last Erupted in March 1963.
It is doable to climb Mount Agung, though it does still cough up smoke and ash on occasion. The 1963 lava flows amazingly all missed the temple perched on Agung’s side, Mom Temple of Besakih, despite killing 1500 people.
5. Bali Has Been Colonised by the Dutch and the Japanese.
The Netherlands’ control over Bali from the 19th century continued until Imperial Nihon occupied it during World War II. The Netherlands subsequently regained control until 1949 when they recognised Indonesian independence including the territory of Bali.
6. Bali’s Fauna is Representative of the Indomalayan Ecozone, Whereas Nearby Lombok, Just to the East of Bali, Has Fauna More Similar to that of Australasia.
Bali is the southernmost island of note in Asia to display very few environmental influences from the South Pacific.
7. Bali Counts Three UNESCO World Heritage Sites Within Its Shores
These are the archaeologically and historically important Pakerisan Valley in Central Bali, the Pura Taman Ayun temple, built in 1634, and the Jatiluwih Rice Terraces in the Tambanan area.
8. The World’s Most Expensive, And Most One-of-a-kind Coffee, Can Be Found in Bali – Kopi Luwak.
It is prefabricated from the beans of coffee berries which have been ingested by the Asian Palm Civet and other related civets, then passed through its digestive tract, yielding a one-of-a-kind coffee with no bitterness. A cup of this coffee has retailed for as much as US$100 overseas, but a “relative” bargain might be acquirable locally.
9. Many Balinese are Trilingual, talking Balinese, Indonesian and English.
Balinese is the local tongue, Indonesian the unifying national language, and English the language to serve you, the tourist.
10. Babi Guling, a Local Version of Suckling Pig, is a Balinese Specialty.
This delicious dish can often be found outside the main tourist areas, so keep a lookout along the road for signs with a pictured pig!
Some Bali hotels will be healthy to hold tours or automobile services to experience some of these interesting aspects of Bali.

Do You Know How to Ease Your Pregnancy Headaches?
Headaches during pregnancy are very challenging as over the counter pain killers are not recommended. Read on to see what you can do to relieve the pain from your headaches during pregnancy.
First of all let’s address why some pregnant women suffer from headaches during pregnancy. Within the first 12 weeks of pregnancy the surging hormones play a part in the development of pregnancy headaches. The 40% increase in blood volume that occurs during pregnancy increases pressure within the blood vessels and this itself can cause pregnancy headaches. Headaches during the last month of pregnancy might also be caused by a condition called preeclampsia, which is associated with high blood pressure, swelling and accelerator in the urine.
It is normal to have headaches during pregnancy because of the above reasons plus the following:
Stress

What you can do to assist your pregnancy headaches:

Consult a homeopath or an acupuncturist for treatments to relieve your pain.
Pregnancy headaches are sometimes relieved with either hot or cold compress around your forehead and on the back of your neck.
Have someone massage your shoulders and neck during acute pregnancy headaches.
Rest in a dark room and practice deep relaxation breathing.
Relaxing in a warm bath or shower sometimes reduces the stress and tension.
The fruit mangosteen is well known to support each system in the body. It is all natural and can relieve and prevent pregnancy headaches.
You tried all the above and you still have a pregnancy headache:
At this point it would be appropriate to call your doctor or midwife for advice.
