Yoga Relieving Stress and Tension?

June 23rd, 2010 jimer No comments

Yoga includes a number of time proven stress relief methods together, this includes exercise, listening to calming music, breathing exercises, meditation practices, guided imagery (this one depends on the style of yoga you practice, for stress release stay away from power yoga and stick to gentle or basic yoga), and stretching.

In general yoga includes moving the body into different poses and stretches while concentrating on intentional and controlled breathing. This allowed the body to be relaxed and energized at the same time, a rare combination. This type of practice benefits the body by including oxygenating the blood, which travels through the body delivering more oxygen to all the cells of the body. This relaxes the muscles and quiets the mind. Yoga is partially intention as well, if you are preforming your movements with the intention of releasing stress and tension it will help.

You can get these benefits for a relatively small amount of effort. At fifteen or twenty-five minutes a day you can get some amazing results for stress relief. Yoga is a natural counterbalance to stress and will strengthen the way you deal with stress on the daily basis. It’s not a quick fix and won’t work immediately or the first time you try it, it’s a process and the more time and effort you put into it the more results you will get.

Implementing yoga into your stress relief routine will help to slow down your heart rate, reduce blood pressure, calm feelings of anxiety, bring hormones into balance, enhance your sleep, and more. Yoga also helps clear the mind and un-clutter the brain which often create stress and sometimes even tension headaches.

Recommendation:

yoga awakening meditation collection

You can buy this very good book Yoga Awakening Meditation Collection and discover Natural Stress Relief, Increase Energy, Improve Memory And Concentration, Enhance Creativity And Intuition, Regain Mastery & Control Of Your Thoughts Through Yoga & Meditation. Restore Balance To Your Life And Realize Your Full Human Potential!

Any yoga pose for any length of time will help with stress release but focusing on the neck, chest and shoulders will get you the most amount of benefit in a shorter amount of time. Even simple movements such as neck circles, shoulder rolls, chest expansion, spinal twists, will aid in the release of stress and tension. In general men tend to hold their stress and tension in their shoulders, and women tend to hold theirs in their lower backs.

Training the body and mind can be accomplished with yoga, training ourselves to respond to the request for relaxation and stress release. Creating a new and healthy habit of relaxation that can be very helpful when we are in the middle of stressful situations as well as after. (By: Gaylene Thoeny)

This is kinda old but for the sake of others who don’t know yet, see the side of Mark Munoz you probably won’t see on any other interview. Mark Munoz talks about his faith as a Christian. He gives a brief testimony of when he came to know Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. He hopes to address concerns Christians have in reconciling the sport of MMA with being a Christian.

Growing old vs. Growing up

July 15th, 2009 jimer No comments

This is an email I got from thousands of my spammers which in-fairness gives me an inspiration that getting old is not a scary thing just like what everyone else  is being afraid of. Here’s how it goes, I hope it will inspire you too.

My Name Is Rose

The first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn’t already know. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder.

I turned around to find a wrinkled, little old lady beaming up at me with a smile that lit up her entire being.

She said, ‘Hi handsome. My name is Rose. I’m eighty-seven years old. Can I give you a hug?’

I laughed and enthusiastically responded, ‘Of course you may!’ and she gave me a giant squeeze.

‘Why are you in college at such a young, innocent age?’ I asked.

She jokingly replied, ‘I’m here to meet a rich husband, get married, and have a couple of kids…’

‘No seriously,’ I asked. I was curious what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age.

‘I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’m getting one!’ she told me. Read more…

Are gadgets driving couples apart?

March 7th, 2008 jimer No comments

According to a new survey, Brits are choosing their gadgets over their loved ones.

As part of The Great British Bedtime survey, conducted online by tickbox.net, 1408 people were asked about their sleeping habits between 27 February and 3 March 2008.

The survey, run by The Sleep Council, found that our obsession with gadgets such as BlackBerrys, mobile phones, games consoles and laptops, is forcing millions of couples to regularly sleep apart.

It revealed that 40% of people go to bed at a different time to their partner because they are still playing with their toys and 8 out of 10 have admitted to using computers or other gadgets at bedtime.

Some 22% now rely on their Blackberrys and mobile phones for their alarm call, 43% watch television in bed and 26% make phone calls or send/receive texts messages.

Indeed – it has almost become the norm with many sending and receiving emails and checking social networking sites, such as Facebook, in bed before snuggling down.

According to the Sleep Council, our bedrooms have become “communications hubs” instead of a place for sleep.

“Busy night-time routines are driving couples’ bedtimes and even their bedrooms apart”, said Jessica Alexander of The Sleep Council.

And this obsession with keeping on top of things – either answering emails or checking our Facebook profile pages – means that we Brits are going to bed later and later.

According to the survey, 40% of the respondants were in bed between 10pm and 11pm on a workday, while only one in eight hit the sack by about 9pm.

And, unsurprisingly, we’re all tired as a result.

Of the respondants aged between 25- and 3- year- old, 56% described themselves as usually very tired or shattered when they go to bed.

Of course the 3 hours and 16 pints in the pub after work has nothing to do with this.

Banned: Condom Commercial

December 27th, 2007 jimer No comments

As I watch this banned condom commercial, my temper hits the top. I don’t get it why this ads clip shows a kid crying and destroying whatever he can reach inside a grocery and then at the end of the commercial it will show in big letter-words USE CONDOM. I’m just happy that this child is not mine. Any comment to enlighten?
