When I'm on the NY subways, I don't hold onto anything as the train moves. I don't stand there like a cement block. As the train sways back and forth, so do I. If the train makes an abrupt stop, I can stop myself. There have been times where the train would make a turn and I would lean over and across, going in the same direction as the train. People have asked me if I'm a heroin addict (of course not!) or just ask me how I did that.
When I have a minor pain, sometimes I complain about it. Then 20 minutes later, I tell the person I complained to that the pain is gone. They are non-believers, so of course they're going to ask me how I did that.
I can also stop colds, flu and fever or slow them down. Right now, I have mucus built up in my throat. It started as a sore throat. Now I am coughing because the mucus is coming out of my system. It could have been worse....I could have had a bad chest or head cold but I don't. No headaches, no body aches. Nothing but this cough. How did I do that?
I did it through my breath.
These three examples I have given represent 3 of the various methods to better breathing that I will cover in future posts. Not only will I cover these methods, I will also cover how breathing better helps you with various forms of exercise such as running and walking.
The methods I will cover will vary in many ways and one of them I have learned from a particular religion/culture. No...I won't tell you what they are. Future posts, explaining everything, will be broken down in a manner that will be easy for you to understand and go back to when you forget or want to tell a friend.
As I type, a friend of mine just asked me why I don't get some cough medicine for that cough. No way! Coughing is a mechanism that is used for the body to heal itself. If I stop the cough, the mucus won't come out of me. I have to be healthy...I crave health. You should too. This doesn't mean that you should stop taking Robitussin if you have a hacking cough or one that is totally unbearable to yourself and others. Sure, take that Nyquil if that cough is stopping you from falling asleep. But my cough is like once an hour and every time I cough, something comes out that needs to come out. My awareness is my friend and protector against most dis-ease.
So until next time,
Stay strong,stay healthyand fight dis-ease!
Hello. Greetings. Hola! Hey Hey Hey!!
don't mind me...it's my first time on this site putting up this kind of blog
My name is Andrea but my cyber moniker is "SeeLaH'. I've posted blogs on myspace for a long time and I decided that it's high time I dedicate a blog to what I love to do....no, not fixing computers or sleeping...but I love to be healthy and share health with others. You know the saying "health is wealth"? Well there is nothing truer than that....especially in this day and age where Americans are ruled by TV, pills, and the ill effects of global warming.
On myspace, I have a couple of mantras at the end of my blogs. One of them is Stay Strong, Stay Healthy and Fight Dis-ease. I thought it was a fantastic mantra, especially since most people think of the physical when it comes to "dis-ease". We need to understand that "disease" and "dis-ease" are two totally different things. Dis-ease is encompassing - affecting not only your physical health, but also your mental and spiritual health. Deficiencies in one can lead to deficiencies in another and it's sad to see that people only notice the waning of their mental or spiritual health when their physical health is in decline or in a state of serious "dis-ease".
In these blogs, I hope to help people such as you (and myself as well...we are all works in progress) with all-around wellness. Fitness, Spirituality, Nutrition, and Current Events that relate to these things are going to be the main focus on this blog. If you can assist me by adding whatever you know or by asking any questions, I would truly appreciate it. Soon, I will also include information on the Master Cleanser and how to do it safely and effectively (as well as other sites that help you with this). But please don't think that the Master Cleanser is the only way to go in terms of weight loss and overall health - there are a myriad of ways for you to be healthy in all aspects...you just have to find your way. I hope my blog can help you to find that way.
So sit back and relax. Drink some nice tea while reading my blogs. Put your feet up and prepare to fight dis-ease!
