YOGA BREATHING AND RELAXATION
Our lifes run at a quick pace. We need to slow down for a moment, breathe and relax. Yoga helps us remember the special state that feels natural to our body and mind: relaxation. “
We all know that tenseness sabotages our good weight by making us eat excessive amounts of food. Even if we undertake a course of weight change treatment, we simply do not need so much food. The body has a hard time processing it. So, use breathing to relax and decrease the trips to the fridge.
Deep breathing has calming and energizing effects. The energy we feel after several minutes of breathing does not resemble hyperactivity. This is the balanced energy that we all need. The slow and calm breathing sends important message to the nervous system: Relax!
Sit down with the back standing upright. If sitting on a chair, do not lean on it. The feet should stand firm on the ground with knees exactly above the centre of the feet. Hands stay on the heaps.
Now, we close our eyes and let them rest. We think about our chest, upfront, back, and sideways. We imagine the lungs positioned on the inside. We feel how our lungs fill with air and energy. The chest lifts up and opens. Then, we feel how our lungs empty and the chest goes down. Breathe deeply, slowly, and carefully. Breathe two to three minutes for the first couple of times you do the exercise. Gradually reach ten minutes. When we see how perfectly fit we feel, we will want to repeat the breathing exercise more often. Breathing is life and harmonious energy. So, if we aim at beauty and harmony, the yoga breathing techniques should become a part of our lifes.
Moreover, keep in mind that stress builds over stress. Relaxation makes more room for our peace of mind. Several minutes of relaxation will help us feel perfectly fit. Let us help our weight change by bringing harmony to our lifes!
