THE BALANCED BODY
|
Having a fit body is not only esthetically pleasing; it also has a great effect on both your mind and your soul. If your body does not have the energy required to stimulate your brain, then you will not be able to accomplish even the simplest of tasks.
There are three key elements to a fit body. These are sleep, proper diet, and exercise. It is important to get enough sleep, because during the sleep process your mind and body are rejuvenated. Every person is different in the number of hours required for sleep. Some gurus are said to never sleep; they just “rest”. Since you and I are not gurus (otherwise we would already be in total balance) we must experiment with the amount of sleep we need.
Proper diet is a must for being fit. We have all heard the saying, “You are what you eat”. That could be scary, depending on your eating habits. The best nutrition habits are the simplest Just follow the basic four food groups with an emphasis on fruits and veges and deemphasize the meat. Meat is harder to digest and makes you sluggish.
Daily exercise is very important in the strategy of body balance. It not only makes you look good, but it stimulates the mind. Being active intensifies your energy level, which in turn stimulates the endorphins that make us feel great. Slow your day down and go for a walk. Or, for a more intense workout, you could check out the “First Honest Muscle Building Program” listed on the link at your left.
I know we have a very busy life and sometimes we skip taking care of ourselves. This is a big mistake because the fitness of our body has a direct correlation to the fitness of both our mind and our soul. They must all be in balance for us to live fully and accomplish the goals that we and the Universe have set for us.
