Too often our need to change ourselves comes from comparing ourselves with others and wanting to act and respond like them.

This feeling of not being okay with our individuality creates dis-ease.

If you live dis-ease for continuous periods of time, there will be so much dysfunction in your system that you will develop disease.

Disease does not develop in your system overnight.

It is the many sleepless nights, the growing aches and pains, the more continued sensitivities to food and environment, the increased mood swings.

All these signs of continued dis-ease create a state of disease.

A constant okayness will create ease in your system.

A human body at-ease will perform at its maximum abilities.

Science proves this over and over again, thought processes, decision making, relationship exchange, creativity, body building, success in all areas of life is accomplished more readily through ease.

Practice BEING OKAY.

Say to yourself in as many moments as you can,  ” I am okay.”

Watch how this change in thinking raises your physical, mental and creative energy.

It is even scientifically proven that a human body at ease sustains only 1/4 the injuries of a system in tension.

Ease practiced daily will bring your human body into the evolution of greater feats than you could personally imagine.

Stress of trying will age you and your human system, and you will notice it with each passing year.

Practice ease and turn your life clock around!

Deep Breathing promotes the release of pain relieving chemicals called endorphins.

Endorphins are our bodies natural painkillers.

Patients who breathe deeply for 5 minutes daily experience less pain for several hours afterward.

Take breaths that are long and slow. This gives the body the ability to absorb more of the inhaled oxygen.

Oxygen relaxes the system.

Breathe in through your nose, nice and slow.

Exhale through your mouth just as slowly.

As you breathe focus on your diaphragm.

Daily deep breathing will enhance your vitality, increase your beauty, restore your health and promote peace in your life.

The basic concept of the ‘Law of Attraction‘ is focus.

You hold the key to your reality. Every moment is important.

You must train your mind to focus on only those things you desire to see manifested in your life.

If you don’t want to see it manifested, don’t  entertain it with your thoughts.

Train your mind to listen to you.

When your thoughts drift and you realize you have been entertaining thoughts that would create in your life something you don’t want, steer your thoughts back to focusing on what you do see for yourself.

This is ‘Law of Attraction.’

What you focus most on becomes your reality.

So train your mind. Make your thoughts work for you. Create the reality you want.

A healthy mind is a controlled mind.

Your mind if not controlled by you will flit from one subject to another changing focus and opinions constantly.

Relaxation becomes almost impossible.

When you cannot comfortably relax, your body becomes increasingly open to disease.

It is important to get your mind to listen to you.

It takes practice but your mind can learn to obey you.

Be persistent in this practice.

A controlled mind is naturally healthy, more creatice, productive and fun to live with.

Chamomile is thought to be a natural healthy addition to the diet, for people with diabetes because it is so rich in antioxidants.

In the United Kingdom and also in Japan researchers fed diabetic rats a chamomile extract for 21 days.

These chamomile-treated rats had a significant drop in their blood sugar.

Due to the natural healing effects of chamomile, There was also a decrease of two enzymes that are associated with dangerous diabetic complications.

These enzymes can cause nerve damage, loss of vision and kidney damage.

Results of this study were published in the  Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry in the September 10, 2008 issue.

Run Injury Free

Many people  love to run, but hate how much it hurts afterward.

There is a natural healthy approach for running that offers a solution.

It is called Chi-Running.

Chi Running blends the healthy healing effects of Tai Chi with running and allows you to run efficiently, safely and injury free.

Chi Running was developed by running coach and ultramarathoner Danny Dreyer.

With his healing technique he found he could run without injury and that after his runs he felt energized and healthy.

In the healthy principles of Tai Chi, it is understood that any type of movement, such as running or walking, should draw its strength from the center core muscles, not from the legs and arms.

Chi Running teaches the runner to maintain a body that is well-aligned, yet relaxed.

GRAVITY PROPELS YOU

Dreyer said before movement, focus on your spine. It is strong and the source of great power. Let your arms and legs become loose and light.

By maintaining strong posture and relaxing the rest of your body while you run, more natural healthy energy can flow from your core throughout your body.

Since you aren’t using the legs to propel you Chi Running can reduce or eliminate shin splints, hamstring injury, and hip and knee problems.

Chi Running reduces pounding so there are no impact (joint) injuries.

Recovery time is much quicker, leaving you feeling more healthy and energized after your run.

THE CHIRUNNING TECHNIQUE

The first step to ChiRunning is learning how to hold a tall, elongated posture while you run, allowing your structural alignment to support your body weight, not your legs.

Stabilize your posture by “leveling” your pelvis, pulling up on your pubic bone.

Once you have this posture, fall slightly forward, keeping your posture line straight.

Holding both the posture and slight forward tilt, begin to run. Bend your knees. Lean forward at the ankles, rather than at the waist. Keep your hips, shoulders and ankles in a straight line.

Let gravity work with momentum to propel you. Proper ChiRunning allows gravity to pull you along. With each step, as your heels lift off of the ground, your legs will swing to the rear and your feet will plant underneath you, rather than in front of you.

Relax your arms, legs and everything else. Use your core muscles to maintain your structure and hold your torso straight.  Envision your core muscles bringing the rest of your body, including your joints, muscles, arms and legs, along for the ride. Always keep your shoulders low and relaxed.

Quiet your mind. Concentrate on leaning forward, using your core to move you, bringing your focus back to this whenever you begin to strain or your thoughts to wander. This helps maintain proper form.

Breathe. Even, relaxed breathing will give you power and help you stay relaxed throughout your run.

CHIWALKING WORKS TOO

You can also try ChiWalking. focusing on good posture, loose joints, engaging core muscles and relaxing the arms and legs.

When you try ChiWalking, “slow it down, be mindful and relaxed, and try to perfect your stride,” said Dreyer.

Rearranging furniture and objects in your house is healthy and can even promote healing.

Remove from your rooms any objects that cause an unpleasant feeling. These objects are considered negative objects and can contribute to negative feelings and negative attitudes. By removing these objects you make way for healthy healing objects to take their place.

Remove clutter. If clutter is present in your rooms, clutter is present in your life. Clutter is considered stuck energy. When you remove clutter from your surroundings you will notice areas of your life that felt stuck begin to heal and become more productive.

Pay attention to your surroundings. Look at each room. Note what you feel. It is important that the feeling you receive should be healthy and good.

This does not mean you need to buy all new furniture or spend a great deal of money.
