Relax and your body works better. That is the gist of an awesome article "The Easier Way to Diet" by Martha Beck in the recent O magazine that I read in the gym and couldn't wait to come home and write my new breath tip!
She basically says that studies show when our body is in the relaxation response (i.e. the opposite of fight or flight, stress reaction) that our metabolism gets a cue that says, "All is well! No famine! No need to store up reserves to prepare for disaster! Go to work digestive system!"
This message is so powerful. When we feel relaxed, when we allow ourselves to enjoy life, our bodies work much more efficiently in all systems AND we feel happier!
Breath is a wonderful tool to bring relaxation. It is always with you. A deep breath is right there. Tuning into your breath and staying with it can happen in a meeting, while you're driving, and best of all - when you're in a happy place.
Celebrate happiness! Celebrate good times! You deserve more of it in your life, in your body, and it will actually help you be MORE efficient if you relaxed, not stressed. GREAT NEWS!
