"Każda komórka Twojego ciała nieustannie słucha Twoich myśli" - M.D. Mark Hyman
Your thoughts have real and measurable effects on your body and brain. Your immune cells know your deepest feelings.⠀
⠀
Your stem cells are wired to your brain and help you repair and regenerate. But they only turn on and make new brain cells when you relax. And I don't mean sipping a glass of Chardonnay while watching TV or practicing retail therapy. ⠀
⠀
In school, we all learned how to read and write, but we never learned how to use our minds to help us with the most important survival skills of all: staying happy and healthy! Research has shown over and over again that learning to relax is one of the most important keys to long-term health and vitality. ⠀
⠀
To engage the powerful forces of the mind on the body, you must DO something. Learn how to ACTIVELY relax. ⠀
⠀
Whether you practice deep breathing or take a simple leisurely walk, find an active relaxation that works for you and do it. Here are a few more ideas on how to push your pause button:⠀
⠀
1) Make choices that make your life balanced — practice saying “NO” to others and “YES” to yourself.⠀
⠀
2) Try yoga or meditation.⠀
⠀
3) Get enough sleep.⠀
⠀
4) Eat whole foods that decrease the stress response.⠀
