Relax & relieve stress through meditation in minutes

When I begin to feel stressed from over doing too much in a day or just feeling anxious, I like doing  a simple breathing exercise to calm my mind or even my stomach.

I start by breathing in deeply and slowly through my nose and exhaling slowly through my nose. I keep my mind focused on my breathing but not on controlling my breathing. This helps to calm my mind from thinking about other things, issues or anxieties. As you continue you will notice your body will begin to naturally slow down in your breathing and your breathes will become naturally shallow. Don't force anything just continue to breathe as your body directs you.

Try doing this early in the morning to give yourself a fresh start to your day and even when you stomach becomes tensed or you become anxious. It's a great way to relax your body and come back to your true self.

Here's a video to learn how to relax through meditation.

Acid or Alkaline Water

Many people have a understanding what alkaline water is. If not let me state that alkaline water is the degree of acidity or alkalinity on the pH scale ph of 7 it’s considered acidic. If it’s above 7 it’s considered alkaline. According to the World Health Organization, health effects are most pronounced in pH extremes. Drinking water with an elevated pH above 11 can cause skin, eye and mucous membrane irritation. On the opposite end of the scale, pH values below 4 also cause irritation due to the corrosive effects of low pH levels. WHO warns that extreme pH levels can worsen existing skin conditions? In many instances if the body ph is lower than 7 then that person is susceptible to disease. It is thought by many who understand that "food is medicine" that the root of all disease is an acidic body. Furthermore, to cure whatever ails you must get the pH of your body back in balance - you must achieve a slightly alkaline body of about 7.2. Lemons are great way to helping you change your ph from acidic to alkaline. By squeezing lemon in a glass water will also aid in digestion. I sometimes do this as a start in the morning. While some like coffee it is a known acidic. It is said that between 70%-80% of your diet should be alkaline and 30%- 20% acidic. Alkaline forming foods in your diet add to the cleansing effect of your digestive system. In addition to having a proper pH balance aids in weight loss.

Is it better to drink tap or bottled water?

The most important element probably known to man is water. Some say you can go days without eating but you can't go long without water. The body is made up of 75% water, which it poses a powerful force in nature as well. The concept of bottle water has become accepted as the standard. In the past decade, the bottle water market has more than doubled in the United States surpassing juice, milk, and beer, to becoming the second most popular beverage after soft drinks. I have read stories of taste test done all over the country where consumers confuse tap water with what they thought to be bottled water. A 1999 study by the National Resources Defense Council of more than 1,000 bottles of water found that while most bottled water was safe, some brands violated strict state standards on bacterial contamination, while others were found to contain harmful chemicals such as arsenic. The report concluded that bottled water was no safer than water taken from the tap.

In fact, most of the time bottled water is actually tap water. Tap water also has a few dangers lurking as well. There are 35,000 pesticides containing 600 chemical compounds. Yet municipal water systems are only required to test for six. Many of these chemicals are known to cause birth defects, nerve damage, sterility and cancer. That sounds scary to hear but the truth is everthing you drink comes basically from municipal drinking sources, even some bottled water. A recent government study found that more than 25% of all large U.S. public water systems contain traces of one or more toxic substances. ... Public water systems do not test for the carcinogens and other dangerous chemicals that are being found. Next to chlorine‚ lead is the most common contaminant found in tap water. Lead in drinking water usually originates between the water main in the street and the household faucet. One study done in Baltimore MD‚ showed that children with high blood-lead levels had a significantly higher rate of problem behaviors than children with low blood levels. The addition of chlorine to our drinking water began in the late 1800s and by 1904 it became a standard treatement of drinking water. According to the U.S. Council of Environmental Quality‚ "Cancer risk among people drinking chlorinated water is as much as 93% higher than among those whose water does not contain chlorine."

Did you know water is always returns back to source? 
Next time you are in the rest room think about that. Your water goes back home to "THE SOURCE". We are responsible for cleaning up our water supplies by starting to cleanup whats going into our bodies becoming more conscious about the chemicals that our family are exposed too. Be more conscious by doing your part and researching what you're taking into your bodies.
