An incredibly valuable article which I have been reinforcing with all my yoga students for over 10 years. So many benefits and especially a read that can hopefully bring awareness for any human beings. Health and immunity boost through nasal breathing and reduced illness guaranteed.
In a simple way, nose 👃 is for breathe and mouth 👄 is for eating and our breathe plan-B.
Breathe is our primary vital function and nasal breathing is our ultimate goal in conscious breathing for an ultimate body mind spirit connection!
Namaste 🙏
Andree Clement

Emerging research suggests that nasal breathing might be more effective and better than mouth breathing during exercise.

Another interesting explanation on why it’s so important to create our best energy every day, every moment. Our responsibility to choose to be our best self emanates from our conscious...our energy...our frequency.
What’s your level of “ability to respond”...your responsibility in creating that best YOU...that best Life.
I love this article...

Bon matin à tous/Good morning to all!

Feeling a little under the weather these days with the change in temperature? Abused from a little too much food or wine over the summer?

If you're like me, yes. And...I've just been fighting a cold for the last week and it brought awareness all of a sudden that I needed to take better care of myself to increase my immune system in different ways and one of them is to kick-start my body.

How?

This morning is the start of my little 3 DAY CLEANSE. I actually love this one by Dr.Oz. It's simple, short and very efficient. The great thing about it is that you won't feel starved. It's actually real food and a lot of it in one day! You'll feel light and energized instantly! And sorry to say but after 2 or 3 days, your stool will have never been so healthy (the way it should be!)

Your morning smoothies are your prebiotics and it's good to also take the probiotic if you can (but if you don't have them handy, don't stop yourself from enjoying this 3-day treat)

The evening baths are a pure bliss at the end of the day and allows you to completely unwind, let go and just be!

If you're not up to it, or simply want to use the smoothies randomly / once daily, that's also really good and a great intake of good nutrients!

Let me know how it goes/laissez-moi savoir comment ça se passe et si vous avez des questions!

IYOG for a healthier life!!

Great read this morning on the benefits and impact of attending a one-week retreat. Finally a study looking at it all!
Noura El-Imam, Kim Aguilar Danoher and Isabelle Halle! There you go...very timely for all three of you wonderful women! ###

Wellness retreats use many complementary, holistic therapies, yet there have been no published studies on the health outcomes for wellness tourists...

Lower back pain....does that ring a bell?
If you are working long hours at a desk, sit for too long in the course of the day, chances are the above will manifest in a big "pain in the back!"
Back pain (Spinal Health) is a health epidemic and has been misunderstood and mistreated for too long. This is one of the situation that a pill just won't fix and I am pleased to share the New Guidelines for Lower Back Pain by The American College of Physicians...Massage/Yoga as an alternative approach...pills last resort!
Time to renew with our mind/body connection and how it really works.
Enjoy the read!

The American College of Physicians just issued new guidelines for lower back pain: try safe alternative approaches like acupuncture, massage,...

I can't help but to share!
We tend to focus so much on our physical body and how it manifests itself instead of looking further and deeper where the root cause lies.
"Your physical body is a fiction. Every cell is made of two invisible ingredients: AWARENESS and ENERGY".
How about exploring past the physical and looking into your energetic body. Start with your breathe and activate and elevate your energy, your consicousness.
Consciousness = Energy

Your physical body is a fiction. Every cell is made up of two invisible ingredients: awareness and energy. This course details five recent breakthroughs of the body that lead to self-transformation by changing the distorted energy patterns that are the root cause of aging, infirmity, and disease.

BREATHING FOR RUNNERS!

I am currently doing an anatomy course with Leslie Kaminoff's Yoga Anatomy and "Yogic Breathing for Runners" was part of some of the discussions.

What Leslie clearly explains is that "the natural thing to do while you're running is to not play around with your breath but to let the activity call for the pattern required to provide the energy you need to perform the activity", in this case - running.

So it's best not to focus on the mechanics of your breath but rather focus on the form and technique of the activity itself.

Where I find that yogic breath or pranayama (breathing techniques) can help runners or any other athletes, is that it will guide you towards creating a new and better breathing pattern, which can enable you to deepen your breath and increase your lung capacity, therefore contributing towards a better performance.

Most of us have not been taught how to breathe properly as our autonomic nervous system takes care of this without the person's conscious effort right? Well, yes and no. Because of this, too many use a poor breathing pattern, which can be responsible for many illnesses or health conditions.

So I would recommend to work on your breathing patterns and capacity on your yoga mat and focus on your form while performing your running or any other sport/activity. They will eventually work in perfect harmony!

I-YOG for a better breath!
