PSS

PSS - perpetual Stress Syndrome:

hmm!!! I knew something was wrong with me, when I came down with aches and pains over the past year or 2.. but cudnt put my finger on it.. I always carried the guilt of not setting a time aside for exercising.. I wanted to help myself .. and hence began the search for answers.. After going thru some info on yoga and healing this is what I found- people!! most of us suffer from PSS - perpetual stress syndrome.. we forget to relax or breath consistently.. it is unconsciously done.. when someone asked me to breath in and out it took me a while to figure out the most important and simple exercise we all are born with - BREATHINg normally.. inhalation and exhalation.. thats the focus in Yoga and healing.. with the onslaught of widespread exercise regimen - pilates, zumba, power workouts of everyname, to choose from these days, we oftentimes are attracted by heavy workouts basically to sweat your body like crazy.. ones which will tone down our muscles or body, oftentimes ignoring the fact that healing every inch of our body is equally or more important.. I am in noway insisting anyone to start yoga-ing right away.. but please make an effort to start breathing normally focusing on nothing but your regular breathing.. every cell of your body will thank you for the oxygen you fill them with, so they get their fuel to do their normal function.. more on YOga and healing as I assimilate info.. cant tell you, I already feel so energized sharing this info with all.. I began! I am sure pretty soon you all will be convinced enough to slide your body into feeling good soon too.. its all about your well-being..
My mind gets distracted while I am doing my regular breathing exercises..it gets drawn to the sink load of dishes to be washed but I am getting good @ refocussing on my breathing technique
