Mini-exercise on the power of physical activity

With your eyes closed, picture yourself doing some physical movement, whether that is an athletic activity or simply walking as you go about your daily business. After you have felt your body energized by the picture in your mind, allow an image or symbol to form that represents the vigor and energy that comes from physical activity.

Your body needs rest to rebuild cells and tissue that are worn down during the time when you aren't sleeping or that are depleted by illness or to prevent illness from getting a foothold in your body. And, of course, sleep is also needed for emotional renewal.

Let Romance Motivate Us
What motivates a tiger to run after his prey? The desire to get his meal. What motivates the prey to run away from tiger? The desire to save his life. That is why, many times, the prey outruns the tiger. The desire to save life gives motivation much beyond the desire to get a meal. To work towards a goal, all of us need motivation. Some of us work to achieve success so that they can to prove themselves in front of their friends. Some work to get more money and live a more comfortable life. Some want to succeed for the thrill of achievement. For every person, there is his/her own motivation.Why do we need motivators?For living, we only need air, water, food and shelter. But we are much more evolved than animals. So we want to achieve something in life that satisfies us. Human being is given a mind that thinks. This thinking mind can achieve quite a lot, if it

When was the last time you thought about the miracle of your body? If you're like most of us, you don't pay a lot of attention to it unless it complains. When our body is going about its business, keeping us functioning from day to day, we don't stop to consider how wonderful it is, nor do we think about all the ways our bodies are supported by simple things we do.

However, in working with clients, and in my own experience, I've learned that paying attention to these resources increases the impact they can have on one's sense of vitality. And since your physical well-being is connected to your emotional, mental and spiritual well-being, by paying greater attention to these aspects of your life, not only will you reinforce your body's natural healing mechanism when that is needed, but your mental faculties will improve and your spirit will be lifted.

That is why in this article I encourage you to become aware, as often as possible, of the images connected with each of these sources of healing. To do this you may want to sit quietly and simply focus on one or two of these sources of healing. Or you may want to stop once every hour and notice how it is that, at that particular time, your body is receiving healing and vitality. Read this through once and then look it over again, choosing one mini-exercise you will do today and one you will do tomorrow. Tap into these resources every day and you'll be sure to feel better for your efforts.

Breath

The muscles in your abdomen allow the air to come into your body without any effort on your part. You don't consciously think about the muscles involved in breathing, although they have been doing their work since the day you were born. They know exactly how to function so that you can take oxygen from the air and use that life-giving oxygen to feed the billions of cells of your body. When the oxygen has been converted to energy needed by the body, the simple act of breathing removes from your body the toxins and waste matter you don't need.

Mini-exercise on the power of breath

Close your eyes and allow your body to feel renewed and strengthened by the oxygen that is brought so gently and easily into your lungs as you breathe -- and by the breath's ability to remove carbon dioxide and other airborne waste from your body. And then, to strengthen this small but important exercise, what image or symbol could you use to remember the gift of breath?

Food

From food your body extracts energy and nutrients and turns them into healing properties. The immune system would not be able to function if it did not receive nutrition any more than it could function without oxygen. The more nutritious your food is, the stronger your body can become and the better you will feel. Vegetables and fruits, grains and animals provide ingredients for the food you eat and they all contribute their energy to your health.

When you prepare these ingredients with love and participate in the creative process of cooking, you enhance your body's health and sense of well-being. When you eat at a restaurant and take special care to select only those foods and drinks that both taste good and are nutritious, your body's healing process is enhanced. And when you are invited to eat at a friend's house, your health and your spirit benefit from the companionship of friends around the table.

Environmentalism and Reality Check
Environmentalism needs a reality check because too often environmental rules and regulations are used in order to prevent someone from exercising their private rights as a citizens or as a corporations to make a profit on their property or enjoy a piece of property that they own.Too often environmental lawsuits are filed, which prevent the United States citizen from having better infrastructure, better power plants or better services.
