There are many benefits of wearing a bindi on the forehead ----


Improves Vision

The middle part of the forehead where the bindi is kept has a supratrochlear nerve that passes through it which has necessary fibres which protect eyes as well as skin. 


‌Improves hearing

One of the nerves passing through this area also stimulates your cochler, which is a part of the inner ear that is the key to hearing. 


‌Clears up your sinuses 

The trigeminal nerve, which is responsible for the sensation in the entire face, passes through this area. This nerve helps in reducing the swelling and congestion in your sinuses. 


Conclusion

In India, brides wear Bindi on their foreheads to protect themselves and their husbands from evils. 

It is not just a "bindi", It is a sign of a married woman that speaks a lot. 

It should not be a fashion trend that changes with the dynamic environment as it symbolizes strength, love and energy.
