Do you want to lose weight but are too tired to exercise? This short article reveals a 5000 year old method to regain your energy and losing weight. It's so simple baby boomers are doing it and living longer as a result.
Our World is pure energy - a pulsing, living, life force. Energy never dies. Never. It only gets transformed. YOU are energy: two kinds: there is the one - potential energy. That's what you have - potentially, meaning it's there but you're not doing much with it. It's like the teacher who says to the mother of the eight year old child, " Your child has potential - yes, I see it - but they're just not doing the work. To lose weight you have to first decide that you will do the work it takes to reach your desired goal. How can you translate the thought into doing? That's called kinetic energy. By taking action. Yoga, a 5000 year old form of exercise takes you to kinetic energy and guides you to the path of doing, of taking action.
Yoga also makes you think. When you think about something - that's potential - the actual doing puts your energy to work. Yoga guides you to see the potential of being your fittest self in mind, body and spirit. So what does that term mean- mind, body, spirit and how can yoga help you lose weight? First off, you must decide to lose the weight. Weight loss begins and ends in your mind. Yoga brings you a realization of your full potential of kinetic energy to motivate your mind to take the actions so vital to take charge of the health of your body. When your mind and body feel are positively in sync, your spirit feels energized and ready to take on the challenges of your busy life.
Your life affects your energy and your energy affects the mood of others around you. Someone with positive energy can make you feel emotionally happy and more willing to exercise. That's why some exercise teachers are better at motivating you than others. A good yoga teacher smiles, they're positive and uplifting and you mirror their energy. That's true. Just as true is when you have low energy perhaps from a sad day or a headache - that's a physical symptom. We need to be aware of where our energy is and how to use it constructively.
Here's a simple exercise - easy to do- that can put you in touch with your energy system. We call it developing your "second attention" - something that yoga has had 5000 years to develop.
Note what you see/do/feel when you wake in the morning. The very first thing. Perhaps that you look at the clock or look at your spouse - that's your visual energy - or hear the sound - that's your hearing energy - or touch by reaching out for your robe or the hand of your love - your feeling energy. Now, to develop your "second attention" try doing it another way - any of the ways which relate to your 5 senses. Do a different one touch/feel/sight/hear/smell each day. When you develop your second attention, you can apply this strategy to the foods you eat and this will lead you to practice "mindfullness" with foods and activities. Think about what you put into your mouth and ask yourself, "will this food get you the results you seek? What activities will give you the health and energy you deserve? Yoga is the perfect chisel to carve your mind, body,and spirit into the energetic, fit person God meant for you to be.
Wishing you healthiest blessings and the belief that you can attain them. I believe in you.
