Not Into “Yoga”? Think Of It As…

OK so you may not be a fan of what we call, Yoga… Too “woo woo” for you.  Not interested in grabbing your foot behind your head, (not that I can do that either) or hearing the term “Downward Dog” makes you think you should have a bowl with your name on it on the floor while you do it. For you it’s not about the “connection”. You just want to get healthy and pick up the keys you dropped on the floor without throwing your back out into the twilight zone.

So for this lesson, lets just call it… stretching.  How’s that? 🙂 “Stretching” has SO many benefits.  Just start a program of stretching, and you’ll soon notice many of them.  Some of the benefits of stretching are:

  • relief from pain
  • increased energy levels
  • increased flexibility
  • better range of motion of the joints
  • greater circulation of blood to various parts of the body
  • relaxation and stress relief
  • enhanced muscular coordination
  • improved posture
  • greater sense of well-being
  • GREAT compliment to a weight training routine!

Quick Guide: 10 Benefits of Deep Breathing

Drew’s Quick Guide to 10 Best BENEFITS to Deep Breathing..

(Quite honestly, I sometimes forgot to use my breathing techniques in the last month, and I was/am in full blown STRESS CRISIS… *ugh*)

So take 3 mins: Close your eyes. Inhale up/in through your nose, SLOW, let your belly, then your chest rise. Hold—Then out through your mouth, SLOWLY. Let your belly and chest lower. Repeat over the 3 min or more.

1. Deep breathing calms the sympathetic nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system is activated in times of stress and anxiety. Deep breathing will slow your heart rate down and in a matter of seconds your breath will communicate to your brain there is no danger which relaxes your muscles.

2. Breathing lifts mood. Breathing raises levels of endorphins and lowers stress hormones.

3. Breathing brings clarity and mindfulness.

4. Breathing boosts energy and stamina. The more oxygen in the body, the more level of energy you will have.

5. Breathing increases oxygen in your blood.

6. Breathing strengthens the immune system.

7. Breathing can release toxins in your body by 70%. When you exhale, you are releasing carbon dioxide waste which has passed through your bloodstream into your lungs.

8. Promotes better sleep.

9. Reduction in blood pressure.

10. Breathing normalizes the heart rate and rhythm.
