I came across a news article, which gives informative pieces on how to live a longer, less stressful life. Located at NaturalNews.Com. http://www.freepress.net/ownership/chart/main
We as humans aresupposed to encounter stress and be tired throughout our lives, but too much of either one of these can lead to an unhealthy lifestyle. Taking care, and nurturing your own body is essential to a longer, more fulfilling life. Scientists and researchers found that, "people who feel more stressed are more likely to have shorter telomeres and lower levels of telomerase, which suggests that prolonged stress may actually shorten our lifespan."
To be honest, I want to live as long as possible, and being stressed and or angry is not a state I'd like to be in.
Step 1 talks of how Sauna and Steam Baths naturally relax the body and mind, through perspiration and a sense of fever. Our bodies release toxins and poisons through sweating, which contribute to healthier skin. Our immune system is also stimulated, which helps in the body's healing process.
Step 2 refers to Deep Breathing as a key point for healthier, longer life. Deep breathing reduces "high blood pressure, raises our energy levels, relaxes muscles and improves athletic performance," which are all things we wouldn't mind attaining. Deep breathing helps the Respiratory System, as well as bodily functions and mental state.
Step 3 talks on how Massage Therapy is a beautiful relaxation method. When someone else is touching you, nerves and sensations are reached that may not be if you're doing it yourself. Massages improve your sleep regime, and quality, so it is highly recommeded.
