[AlternativeAnswers] September Is Yoga Month: Yoga In Your Life

 

Good Morning!
 
September Is Yoga Month: Yoga In Your Life
 
Incorporating yoga into your life can be one of the most rewarding and fulfilling experiences you can take on your journey! A nurtured yoga practice can transcend you by creating a disciplined mind a strong and physically fit body and no matter what religion you practice, like any religion, yoga can be a bridge to enhancing your spirituality.
 
Reasons To Incorporate Yoga As A Lifestyle

1. Creates Discipline: Discipline is a necessity in life. Discipline is essential for achieving any kind of success in your life! It is the secret to the most effective, efficient and well strategic plan you can give yourself! Being successful, losing weight, maintaining relationships are not tasks that come easy for most people. They are all things we must work hard on creating, keeping and maintaining!

2. Improves Circulation: Poor circulation is the cause of over 1000 diseases! From a healthy heart to a good sex life, the proper flow and circulation of blood in our arteries is one of the most important things we can do to maintain good health and push back the aging process. There is a common denominator between good arterial health and disorders such as heart attack, obesity, diabetes and high glucose levels, as well as sexual health. That common denominator is blood circulation.

3. Increases Flexibility: Yoga is the way to a more pliable, flexible body. It creates a supple and more resilient muscular structure suited to react quicker to falls, accidents or in any kind of sports. As we age, the flexibility improved by doing yoga has shown to be a deterrent in injury related accidents.

4. Quiets the Mind: A disciplined mind is a free mind. Gain control over your thoughts and you maintain control over your life. Retrain your mind and you regain your freedom. Calming the mind is a behavioral technique used to interrupt, minimize and eliminate "psychological noise". Obsessive, repetitive thoughts, anxiety and fears are all apart of negative, self-destructive patterns that can benefit from the power of yoga and mind quieting.

5. Improves Breathing : Breath is life! Exchange of electrons. Flow of energy. Air is the primary nutrient. Survival without it is measured in minutes. It is so important that you do it without thinking. Your breathing is the voice of your spirit. It's depth, smoothness, sound, and rate reflect your mood. If you become aware of your breath and breathe the way you do when you are calm you will become calm. Yoga helps us to practice regular, mindful breathing and can be calming and energizing. With the addition of music and it's rhythm, the "musical breath" can even help stress-related health problems ranging from panic attacks to digestive disorders. Fall into the rhythm of the music and breathe. Focus on your breathing as you move through your yoga poses.

6. Brings Awareness: Through your yoga practice, you can gain a broader perspective in self awareness. Being able to open up your mind, allowing a free flow of thoughts and ideas can be liberating. Welcoming a new opinion or way of doing something can bring new meaning to your life. If you give up your closed thoughts and make way for a different opinion, you may be surprised at the outcome. Through your yoga practice, you learn to strive to meet difficult goals as you are pushed to stretch the horizons of what you think is impossible. You can then share the ways in which obstacles and challenges have made you stronger, and given you confidence to continue setting goals and dreams in your adventures, your business, and in your day to day life. This is conscious living.

7. Improves Nutrition: The source of fuel you find to nourish you on a daily basis changes as you become a yogi. The demands for a healthier diet make your journey more important. The Ayurvedic science of food is based on incorporating the 6 flavors (pungent, salty, sweet, bitter, sour and astringent) into each meal. The Three Humours or Tri-dosa are Ayurvedic body types that tailor a diet and digestive routines that are best for you.

8. Betters Your Sex Life: As mentioned earlier, a healthy heart and the proper flow and circulation of blood in our arteries is one of the most important things we can do to maintain good health and a satisfying sex life. Not only that, just think how much more limber you will be. Not to mention, stamina.

9. Improves Your Quality of Life: You are now breathing better, are more flexible, have found a new sense of purpose, drive and direction in your life. Welcome change! Through this gateway, your idea of nourishment has changed. Not just what you put in your body, but what you allow or don't allow in your life any more. Yoga is like the lotus flower. It teaches us to unfold one petal at a time in order to reveal the raw beauty underneath.

10. Brings You Closer to Nature/Spirit: Finding spirit and a higher sense of purpose comes to you as you evolve in your yoga practice. It can show us what is truly important in life. Allowing all those things that monopolize our time, to begin to have less value and stress inducing effects on us. Especially as you grow as a yogi.

[AlternativeAnswers] Fermented Apples for Health

 

Fermented foods not only protects dogs and people from disease, it also helps to detox, meaning the heavy metals and toxins that build up in his body over time (from things like lawn pesticides, pollution, cleaning chemicals, vaccines, drugs and in food and water), it can be removed from his body before they cause health issues.

And some animal studies show these probiotics can even prevent cancer.

Fermented foods are also more digestible and your dog gets more nutrition out of them than he would out of the same unfermented apple. As an example, sauerkraut (fermented cabbage) contains way more vitamin C than cabbage.

How To Make Your Own Fermented Apples - what you will need (this will fill a mason jar):

3 medium sized organic sweet apples (make sure they're organic because apples are sprayed with a lot of pesticides and you're making this to make your dog healthier)

1 lemon (juiced and zested – it's not hard, here's how to do it)  -  1 tbsp.  sea salt or Himalayan pink salt, do not use table salt to ferment foods)  -  4 cups clean, filtered water.

Directions:

  1. Slice the top off one of the apples and set it aside.
  2. Core and thinly slice the apples, then cut them into small pieces.
  3. Combine the salt and tested lemon in a pot with the filtered water and heat over medium heat until it's almost simmering, making sure the salt is dissolved.
  4. Place the apple pieces in the jar, leaving about an inch at the top.
  5. Pour the filtered water mixture into the jar until the apples are covered. Push the apple pieces as far down as you can, packing them lightly.
  6. Place the top of the apple on top of the jar, so the apple slices are all submerged.
  7. Cover the jar with cheesecloth or a coffee filter.
  8. Store the jar at room temperature and allow it to ferment for 3 to 4 days. Check the apples for fermentation. The brine should be bubbling.
  9. You can taste the apples if you wish (they're good for you too!) They should be sweet with just a little bit of tang. If they don't seem to be fermented yet, leave them for another day or two and try them again. The longer they're left at room temperature, the more tart they will be.
  10. Once the apples are fermented, put them in the fridge. They should keep for 3 months in the fridge – the cold temperature will stop the fermenting process.

You can also add cinnamon sticks or other tasty additions to the fermented apples.

How To Feed  - Fermented apples can be fairly tart, so your dog might not take to the taste at first (although many dogs love the taste).

Introduce the fermented apples slowly if your dog isn't enthused about them. Start with just a tiny amount, and gradually build up to 1 to 2 teaspoons per 20 pounds of body weight per day.

Mix the fermented apples with his food or give them with some kefir for a tasty snack … and feel good, knowing your dog is getting a healthy boost, while you save money on probiotics and other supplements.
