Guest guest Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 In the early 1940s, somatic stress researchers found that stress manifested itself differently on mental and physical planes. Physical effects included the classic ‘fight-or-flee’ response — tight muscles, rapid and shallow breathing, increased blood pressure and heart rate, adrenaline secretion and sweating. The cognitive effects of stress were listlessness, concentration and memory problems and loss of motivation. The two-fold or psychophysical manifestation of stress led to a simple, but profound, means of stress-relief — corrective relaxation and breathing techniques. These were already known to the ancients. The key insight of yoga, for example, is that it is literally impossible to be anxious and relaxed at the same time. In modern parlance, this is expressed as an inverse relationship between relaxation and anxiety. In practical terms, whatever promotes relaxation also leads to reduction of anxiety.Progressive muscle relaxation (PMR), which is similar to the conscious unwinding of tension envisaged in the yogic shavasana or the corpse pose, is a method designed to teach how to recognise involuntary muscle tension and relax muscle groups, to minimise negative stress.

Guest guest Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Perseverance is the key to success Remember that making mistakes is part of learning. Helga’s first try at establishing her jewelry store failed. After re-evaluating her experience, she opened another jewelry store. Helga is now the proud owner of three successful stores. Helga didn’t fail in her first attempt. Failure occurs when we quit or stop trying. Helga has perseverance - “stick-to-itiveness.” Perseverance is the key to success. After thousands of efforts to make the electric light bulb, Thomas Edison said, “I haven’t failed, I’ve identified 10,000 ways that it doesn’t work.” Mario Lemieux, Helen Keller, Abraham Lincoln, Marie Curie and an endless list of other great achievers found that success inevitably arrives for everyone who perseveres. Acquiring a desired job or promotion, or succeeding at business may present difficulties. But this is part of the learning process. Ultimately, people who persevere become successful. They learn from mistakes. Do you persevere? Or, after meeting rejection or difficulties, do you quit?

Guest guest Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Treating The Cancer By Scientific Yoga With modern medicine unable to find a cure for cancer, victims of the dreaded disease are looking for alternative avenues. Most cancer specialists agree Yoga is the most effective alternative treatment available. Cancer is a condition where the human cells divide uncontrollably and form a tumour which affects the functioning of the normal cells. Allopathy tries to destroy the tumour and arrest its further growth through surgery, medication and radiation. Yoga experts explain uncontrolled cell multiplication as human energy (prana shakti) gone haywire due to internal disturbances. more on.............. http://breast-cancer-treatment-hiv-aids.blogspot.com/2005/11/treating-cancer-by-\ scientific-yoga.html _________ Sent by ePrompter, the premier email notification software.
