25.01.2022 In a neurological experiment conducted by researchers, brain activity was measured using magnetic resonance imaging as subjects were induced to feel gratitude. ... The areas of the brain showing increased activity were the anterior cingulate cortex and medial prefrontal cortexthose associated with moral and social cognition, reward, empathy, and value judgment. This led to the conclusion that the emotion of gratitude supports a positive and supportive attitude toward others and a feeling of relief from stressors. Gratitude activates the hypothalamus as well, with downstream effects on metabolism, stress, and various behaviours. The hypothalamus is located at the base of the brain and regulates hormones responsible for many critical functions, such as body temperature, emotional responses, and survival functions like appetite and sleep. One of the neurochemicals associated with the parts of the brain affected by gratitude is dopamine, a pleasure hormone. The positive influence of gratitude on mental health continues past a particular event if the emotion is relived: a simple gratitude writing intervention was associated with significantly greater and lasting neural sensitivity to gratitudesubjects who participated in gratitude letter writing showed both behavioural increases in gratitude and significantly greater neural modulation by gratitude in the medial prefrontal cortex three months later. In fact, this lasting effect is psychologically protective. In adolescents, feelings of gratitude have shown an inverse correlation with bullying victimization and suicide risk. Gratitude affects brain function on a chemical level and its practice promotes feelings of self-worth and compassion for others.

23.01.2022 Amazing Facts About Human Lungs

22.01.2022 I love this analogy! You are holding a cup of coffee when someone comes along and bumps into you or shakes your arm, making you spill your coffee everywhere. Why did you spill the coffee? ... "Because someone bumped into me!!!" Wrong answer. You spilled the coffee because there was coffee in your cup. Had there been tea in the cup, you would have spilled tea. *Whatever is inside the cup is what will spill out.* Therefore, when life comes along and shakes you (which WILL happen), whatever is inside you will come out. It's easy to fake it, until you get rattled. *So we have to ask ourselves... what's in my cup?"* When life gets tough, what spills over? Joy, gratefulness, peace and humility? Anger, bitterness, harsh words and reactions? Life provides the cup, YOU choose how to fill it. Today let's work towards filling our cups with gratitude, forgiveness, joy, words of affirmation; and kindness, gentleness and love for others. (Shared from a friend whose cup is full of goodness and inspiration.) -Katie Loveday Frie

20.01.2022 Have you ever observed or considered the quality of your breath actually reflects the quality of your current posture? An open chest that allows a slow deep breathe can alter the state of our mind and emotions. During this isolation period it is easy to spend more time on the computer and smart phones scrolling for excessive hours without realising. Research has shown that when the average head weight of 4 to 5 kilo is flexed at a 15degree angle, the weight on the neck increa...ses to 12kilo 30 deg to 18kg 45 deg to 20kg 49 deg to 22 kg 60 deg to 27 kg Most commonly this is the reason we complaint of a stiff neck with restricted range of motion, tight upper traps in the shoulders and consistent deep upper thoracic back pain. Our body is amazing and will do anything to ensure we dont fall over, therefore creates this unbalanced and dysfunction of muscles which creates enormous fatigue in this area. So strive to practice a MINDFULL DEEP BREATH FILL YOUR LUNGS OPEN YOUR HEART LIFT YOUR HEAD AND REPOSITION IT CORRECTLY UPON YOUR SPINE ROLL BACK YOUR SHOULDERS FEEL THE INSTANT REJUVENATION INCREASED OXYGEN AND NURTRIENT DELIVERY TO THE ORGANS AND SEE THE POSITIVE OUTLOOK BEFORE YOU. With consistent self awareness this can become our natural state. Make this your daily Mantra

20.01.2022 As we age it is wise to explore and experience new ways of exercising to maintain our fitness and flexibility. The old ways of exercising pounding & compressing the skeletal system causing excessive micro-tears in our muscles create movement restriction, increase injury and simply no longer serves us. Sadly motivation to continue exercising declines and the sedentary life style settles in as the new normal. During my isolation time, I joined a fabulous online exe...rcise program called Gyrokinesis provided by Infusion Pilates in Carine. What is Gyrokinesis? This is a combination of a de compressive, elongating rhythmic flow of movements, joint articulation, rotation, flexion and spiralling of the spine - similar to dance while seated on a stool. There is some floor work included. This method of exercise is well known in the ballet world. Who wouldnt want to move with freedom, ease and grace as a ballerina? . My flexibility and posture improved along with increased energy. Good posture uses less energy to keep the body standing up right against the force of gravity. I highly recommend if your motivation around exercise is low certainly give Gyrokinesis a go. This may ignite your interest in exercise again. If you would like any further information please PM me and I can forward on the information. See more

16.01.2022 An interesting article from ACS Central Science regarding our habitual hair regime. I often consider exploring further when clients develop unexplainable symptoms and do not improve from regular treatments. Suggestions to reassess any unnatural chemicals, food groups or additives regularly absorbed into the body may hold the answer to this cause. A recommended naturopath with experience and diagnostic machines is often a positive way forward to a resolution. https://www.acs.org//a-milder-hair-dye-based-on-synthetic-

16.01.2022 Today is the day! We are moving through the celestial alignments of the Winter Solstice along with the potent conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn! Can you feel th...e electricity in the air? These impactful alignments will help us usher in a new timeline that supports us in transcending the old societal structures and ideologies we have personally and collectively been a part of. Although the seeds had been planted years ago, these alignments are ushering us into a new age known as the Age of Aquarius. 2020 has been a year of asking ourselves what we were ready and willing to let go of, and what we desire to bring forward with us. Now, we begin a cycle of Saturn and Jupiter being in air signs, which will remain until 2159. This is significant, because it shows us that over the next decade and the next hundred-year cycle, there will be tremendous growth in humanity’s consciousness and way of life. It reveals to us that there will be a priority shift in the direction of increased good will for all life. We will see this occur both in technological innovation and ideological transformation. As we move forward, we will be guided to step up and do our part in anchoring a peaceful and heart-centered reality for all humanity to step into. Our next collective chapter is about making sure that every living being has their basic needs met in a way that honors them and all of life. We are all in this together, which means that we are all equal. No one will be left behind. We are in some of the most exciting times in human history. We have been through a lot to get to this point, and this is the time many of us have known about and been anticipating. Happy Solstice! Emmanuel

08.01.2022 __ #Bhramari #Pranayama (#Bee Breath) Bhramari pranayama is very effective in instantly #calming your mind down. It is one of the best breathing exercises to re...lease the mind of agitation, frustration or anxiety and get rid of anger. A simple-to-do technique, can be practiced anywhere at work or home, and an instant option available to de-stress yourself. This #breathing technique derives its name from the black Indian bee called Bhramari. (Bhramari = type of Indian bee; pranayama = breathing technique) The exhalation in this pranayama resembles the typical humming sound of a bee, which explains why it is named so. How To Practice Bhramari Pranayama (Bee Breath) 1. Sit up straight in a quiet, well ventilated corner with your eyes closed. Keep a gentle smile on your face. 2. Place your index fingers on your ears. There is a cartilage between your cheek and ear. Place your index fingers on the cartilage. 3. Take a deep breath in and as you breathe out, gently press the cartilage. You can keep the cartilage pressed or press it in and out with your fingers, while making a loud humming sound like a bee. 4. You can also make a low-pitched sound but it is a good idea to make a high-pitched one for better results. Breathe in again and continue the same pattern for 6-7 times. Keep your eyes closed for some time. Observe the sensations in the body and the quietness within. You can also practice Bhramari pranayama lying on your back or lying on your right. While practicing the pranayama while lying down, just make the humming sound and do not worry about keeping your index finger on the ear. You can practice the Bee pranayama 3-4 times every day. Instant way to relieve tension, anger and anxiety. It is a very effective breathing technique for people suffering from hypertension as it calms down the agitated mind.
