Trying New Things

Today is the day, that maybe, you change your life. Not drastically, but subtley. Mindfully. Gently. Authentically. Not by taking a yoga asana class, not by doing a power workout but by simply thinking about what (simple) things you need to create a sense of physical and emotional well being, clear cognitive function, spirituality, and ability to express your self creatively. SIMPLE THINGS. Like, providing your body with nutrition. Like, breathing. Like, reading something that inspires you. Like, connecting with a friend. Like maybe, ok, doing some asana, but more simply, how about just standing still, tall, aligned, grounded and connected, breathing in prana and exhaling to relax? 

Make a list of all the things you value in life. Short or long list, no matter. Now, make a list of things you can do to SUPPORT those things (support the vitality, well being, spirituality, creative expression). And now, make a list of things (you may or may not do) that disrupt vitality, well being, spirituality, creative expression.

Can you, will you, commit to doing ONE of the supportive things, for some specific period of time, and be accountable for it? Make it doable, make it non-self-effacing (for example, committing to reading 2 hours every day would never work for my schedule and I'd only be upset with myself for not reaching my goal... so make it accessible but appropriately challenging). 

Now, call a friend. Or post it on your blog, Or tell your yoga teacher, or post it on facebook. MAKE YOURSELF ACCOUNTABLE, not to open yourself up for disappointment (remember, these are reachable goals, doable exercises that create a better sense of self for you, try to not set yourself up to fail) but to make sure you have some reinforcement!

Here, I'll share mine.

1) Meditate for 5 minutes a day, every day of the week. Morning or night doesn't matter. But just sit, breathe and deepen. 
Every time I take the time to do this, no joke, I feel like a weight lifts off my physical and psycological being. The transitions easier, I have more patience, I feel more grounded and yet more open hearted and spiritual. The transformation is obvious to my family, and so why would I not embrace this.
2) Eat a good, healthy, nutritious, non-rushed breakfast at least 5 of the next 7 days.
If I slip into poor eating habits and skip breakfast, or eat something too filled with carbs, my entire day body/mind balance is thrown off - blood sugar drops, craving for short term energy foods, foggy thinking, mid afternoon exhaustion, general impatience... nothing that makes me feel good about being. SO, breakfast it is.
3) Spend at least 10 unadulterated minutes with my son playing. That doesn't sound like much, but I mean, 10 minutes of focused time on something (reading, building train tracks) where neither of us is not trying to multitask, read email, watch tv, post on facebook, watch a video, do laundry, clean, etc. FOCUSED loving attention with eye contact, genuine love and vested involvement.

Ok, you have my list. Feel free to post yours. We can check in :)

Why Is Important Combination Of Vitamin A And Vitamin E?

 VitaminA and vitamin E are the fat-soluble vitamins, which are necessary for good health. They have an important role as an antioxidant in preventing damage of cells by free radicals. Appropriate amounts of both vitamins are important for good eyesight, the proper function of the immune, skeletal, respiratory and reproductive systems, and connective tissue (skin, hair and nails).


Vitamin supplements

Side Effects
 
  VitaminEis generallywelltoleratedandsideeffectsare rare. Butat some peoplewho have a deficiencyofvitaminK,vitaminEcan increasethe risk ofbleeding. An overdose ofvitaminE (536 mgover) can causenausea, diarrhea, headache, abdominal pain, bleeding, high bloodpressureandfatigue.
  An overdose ofvitaminA cancausedrylipsandskin, paininbonesandjoints, diarrhea, vomiting, headaches, blurred ordouble vision, confusion, irritabilityandfatigue. Symptomsare usuallyreversible, butwe shouldseek medical advice. It is particularlyimportant toavoidoverdoseduringpregnancybecauseit may cause miscarriageandfetal malformations. Patients with kidney disease are also at high risk for vitamin A toxicity and should not take vitamin A supplements without consulting their doctor.


Interactions

 
 Vitamin A supplements should not be taken with other retinoid drugs because of the high risk of toxicity. A diet with low fat intake impairs absorption of all liposoluble fats, including vitamins A and E. 
 Mineral oils and antacids containing aluminum, as well as medication to lower cholesterol also inhibit absorption of vitamins A and E. Many substances are reducing stocks of these vitamins, including alcohol, barbiturates, caffeine, cortisone, tobacco etc.. 

vitamin E oil

 
  Surveys in children and pregnant women with iron deficiency anemia have shown that this condition is better treated with a combination of iron supplements along with supplements of vitamins A and E than just iron supplements, given that inorganic iron supplements has revoked effect of vitamin E. 
 Persons who are on anticoagulant or anticonvulsant therapy should consult a doctor before starting using vitamin E supplements.

Disadvantages: 

 Converting to this kind of a diet may initially cause unpleasant symptoms such as headache, vomiting, depression and hunger, but it will be only periodically. The diet with raw foods can lead also to a lack of vitamin B12 and proteins, which are usually supplied by the meat, and you need to upgrade this lack of B vitamin through supplements.

With A Healthy Diet For Health And Beauty In Women

 Woman besides the fact that it should take care of her slender figure, she should also keep an eye on her own health. Improvised diets lead to the collapse of the immune system, and hormonal disorders of which is very difficult to get out. Therefore, cherish your health and beauty with healthy food.

Health before everything


  Every woman longs to be beautiful, slender, healthy and spiritually rich.
  But I think the important thing is to be healthy. To health big influence comes from what we consumed as food. Women's constitution and metabolic structure is different from the male. Primary and foremost for every woman's is to have right and healthy nutrition, regardless of age.

healthy diet



  With the small and practical advices in this text, we may in some way help you and educate you on some female problems and illnesses. You can help yourself with proper food, but the important thing is to respect the advices and be disciplined.

Menstrual pains


  If you have menstrual pains, you can ease them with proper diet.
Scientists have proved that foodcan affectthe femalehormoneestrogen, andthusaffectsmenstruation. Fromfoodalsoand carbohydratesare very muchassociatedwithpremenstrualsyndrome(PMS). The newresearch offerssurprisingdataascertainfoods andnutrients, includingcalcium, manganese, andespeciallyfatandcholesterolaffect themenstrualcycle.

All thismustbecombined witha freshsalad, especiallywithfreshrootvegetables. When a womanis inPMS, she should reducethedoseof coffee intakeof coffeeasa drink, ortoreduce theintakeofcaffeinein the body.
  Fruitselevateestrogen levelsina woman, especiallythe mineralcalled boron. A food thatisrich withboron is apple, pear, grapes, peach, raisins, legumes, nuts (almonds, peanuts, hazelnuts-all in afreshform) and particularly rich source of boron is honey.

  As a recommendation you can start every morning with 3 grated apples, one tablespoon of honey, ten fresh almonds and one tablespoon of raisins.

Menopause


  When a woman stops to produce estrogen, she enters in menopause, with the symptoms of the common cold and hot flashes and mood change. Lack of estrogen increases the risk of coronary heart disease and osteoporosis in later years. Every woman can from her early years through food to affect preventively - to alleviate these symptoms or to not get them at all. Namely, the use of soy and flaxseed can stimulate estrogen in women who enters in the postmenopausal period. The soy products with high protein content have estrogenic activity as well as tofu, soybean milk, but not soy sauce and soybean oil.

Osteoporosis


  If a woman has osteoporosis, it is best to keep an eye on her diet. She should use foods that contain a lot of calcium, manganese and vitamin D.
In her nutrition, she should use a great amount of leafy vegetables, fish, kale, broccoli, soy, beans, and should drink orange juice and yogurt.

Candidiasis


  It is very often disease in women. It is a fungal disease caused by Candida albicans, a fungus which like other fungus feeds on sugars. These diseases can be beaten by eliminating sugar intake as nutrition. From the nutrition should be eliminated potato, rice, white flour, sweets and cakes, fruit, bread, cheese, fermented food, mushrooms, yeast.

  From drinks you should eliminate any type of alcohol including beer.

  Foods that will win over candidiasis is garlic, yogurt and olive oil.   Also it is important to eat vegetables in unlimited quantities, and from natural pressed juices only lemon juice is allowed without additives of sugar and honey.

Constipation

  Female population very often bothers from constipation. High consumption of laxative resources can create additional problems. Constipation can be solved with daily drinking 8 glasses of water and eating plenty of fruits and vegetables. I personally recommend that you avoid many processed foods that do not contain dietary fiber.

Finally


  Let's not forget that for women's health in no way should be left out physical activity.

physical activity


  With proper diet, you can make the best precaution to preserve your own health and be slender. With this you will beautify yourself and be spiritually richer.
