*Our body was created to survive. How we survive depends on our conscious choices in the 6 Essentials for Life. If our choices are good we can lead a healthy life or else if made a bad choice the responses lead to pain, disease and death. It is a choice! * *Evaluate * * <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/r_e_a_c_h_o_u_t/join>* *1. What you eat :- There are two kinds of foods Acid and Alkaline. Our body is designed to function in an alkaline state, which requires alkaline foods mostly fruits and vegetables. Eating too much of the acid foods makes your body acid, causing acute physical stress. * * <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/r_e_a_c_h_o_u_t/join>* *2. What you drink:- Our body is majorily water and needs lots of liquids. Since our body regulates itself internally, drinking external stimulants puts added stress on your body and interferes with the regulation of blood sugar. * * <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/r_e_a_c_h_o_u_t/join>* *3. How you exercise:- Our body needs exercise that increases heart rate, promotes muscle activity and aids neurological integration. Excellent exercises that achieve all three are swimming or walking correctly. * *4. How you rest:- Adequate, uninterrupted sleep each night is essential for cell repair. Do not consume large meals too close to bedtime or drink the wrong liquids throughout the day, which over stimulates our body. This makes uninterrupted, restful, repairing sleep difficult. * * <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/r_e_a_c_h_o_u_t/join>* *5. How and what you breathe:- Correct breathing is important because it activates the diaphragm in a manner in which it was designed, which augments heart action. Correct breathing helps rebalance the autonomic nervous system. Breathing is stressful. While the toxins in our food and liquids are cleaned by the liver before entering the bloodstream, the toxins we breathe from smoking or living/working in a smoke/smogfilled environment, go directly into your bloodstream. * * <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/r_e_a_c_h_o_u_t/join>* *6. What you think about:- Thinking about lemons fills our mouth with saliva. In anger or fear our body is as uptight as if we are fighting a fierocious animal. In worry our nervous system triggers more acid into our stomach producing indigestion and ulcers. And most of these physically harmful feelings come from replaying the past.* <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/r_e_a_c_h_o_u_t/join> ** -- "With realization of one's own potential and self-confidence in one's ability, one can build a better world" - Dalai Lama Vanakkam Subbu
