PART 2

Food supplies the amino acids, essential fat acids, and many other substances that ensure the normal functioning of our basic bodily processes.

These substances also provide us the vital energy we need to go through the day and feel sensual and confident.

Your day should have marks such as the time you eat. Take the time to enjoy the flavor of your food instead to take a quick bite and then hurry towards a stressing activity.

The relaxation and energy you can get through enjoying your meal can help you deal better with those stressing situations. Sit down and eat, making these moments a time for mental relaxation and physical renewal.

In our contemporary society it is quite tempting and an easy-looking solution to eat high-fat fast foods and sugar-snacks instead of having a healthy, balanced diet, rich in all the vitamins and minerals your organism needs to work at its best.

Too much of the inappropriate kinds of foods will have long-time disastrous effects: digestive disorders, heart disease, cancer, obesity
and tooth decay.

Highly processed foods invariably contain lots of excess animal fats, and refined sugars, while the fibre and the essential vitamins and minerals are lost. They will only hang around your waist, with exactly zero benefit.

Normally, you should eat more bread and potatoes and less refined sugar. The carbohydrates present in the bread and potatoes provide energy at a
steady level, while simple sugars give you a quick energy lift that ultimately leaves you irritable and edgy.

Also cut down the saturated fat (found in meat and dairy products) as it increases blood pressure levels. Your ideal daily diet should include:
a.. Eight glasses of pure water, as it keeps the kidneys function properly, and washes the toxins that can build up to impressive levels in your body.

Reduce the stimulates (such as coffee, alcohol and artificial tea) as they can disrupt the organism's fluid balance and can lead to an over-stimulation of the central nervous system, insomnia, high blood pressure, stress disorders.

b.. Consume abundantly fresh fruits and vegetables, as they provide the fibre, vitamins and minerals you need.

c.. Eat plenty of bread (especially whole-wheat), pasta, rice, cereals, potatoes, as they provide you the complex carbohydrates.

d.. Eat low-fat diary products, as they have the calcium and vitamins minus the saturated fats that are so dangerous for your health.

e.. Also, eat daily protein foods such as eggs, nuts, seeds, beans, peas and lentils.

f.. Moreover, a vegetarian diet can be healthy and sustaining, providing that it contains the right balance of amino acids.

FACE THE CHALLENGES

2005-10-09T21:11:00.000-07:00

Hi all

just got a mail from my friend. Really informative. Read this and post your comments.

Just a small story..................for a nice day and life ahead.................

The Japanese have always loved fresh fish. But the fish
population in the waters close to Japan started declining.
Hence fishing boats got bigger and went farther than ever. The
farther the fishermen went, the longer it took to bring in the
fish. If the return trip took more than a few days, the fish
were not fresh and the Japanese hated the taste.

To solve this problem, fishing companies installed freezers on
to their boats. They would catch the fish and freeze them at
sea. Freezers allowed the boats to go farther and stay longer.
However, the Japanese could taste the difference between fresh
and frozen and they did not like frozen fish.

So fishing companies installed fish tanks. They would catch the
fish and stuff them in the tanks, fin to fin. After a little
trashing around, the fish stopped moving. They were tired and
dull, but still alive. Unfortunately, the Japanese could still
taste the difference. Because the fish did not move for days,
they lost their fresh-fish taste. The Japanese preferred the
lively taste of fresh fish, not sluggish fish. So how did
Japanese fishing companies solve this problem? How do they get
fresh-tasting fish to the people of Japan?

To keep the fish tasting fresh, the Japanese fishing companies
still put the fish in the tanks. But now they add a small shark
to each tank! The shark eats a few fish, but most of the fish
still arrive in a very lively state. The fish are challenged!

As soon as you reach your goals, such as finding a wonderful
mate, starting a successful company, paying off your debts or
whatever, you might lose your passion. You don't need to work
so hard so you relax. Like the Japanese fish problem, the best
solution is simple.

L.Ron Hubbard observed it in the early 1950's. "Man thrives,
oddly enough, only in the presence of a challenging
environment. "

The Benefits of a Challenge - The more intelligent, persistent
and competent you are, the more you enjoy a good problem. If
your challenges are the correct size, and if you are steadily
conquering those challenges, you are happy. You think of your
challenges and get energized. You are excited to try new
solutions. You have fun. You are alive!

Recommendations - Instead of avoiding challenges jump into
them. Beat the heck out of them. Enjoy the game. If your
challenges are too large or too numerous, do not give up.
Failing makes you tired. Instead, reorganize. Find more
determination, more knowledge, more help. Don't create success
and lie in it. You have resources, skills and abilities to make
a difference.

Put a shark in your tank and see how far you can really go!

C A R I N G F O R Y O U R S E L F. Part - 1

2005-10-02T23:21:00.000-07:00

Hi

I have got a nice email which i like to share wth you all. I have planned the mail as a article in my blog as parts. So please wisit my blog periodically so that you will not miss any parts.

Thank you.

PART 1

It is important and rewarding to have another person's love and attention, but at least equally important is to gain that caring and respect for yourself. We are encouraged to put our own well being in second place in order to consider others.

However, building up your own self-esteem will empower your life and enable you to become less dependent on another person for acknowledging your value.

This power will sustain you in time of loneliness, but equally important it will add new aspects to any relationship you already have.

The start is simple: a lifestyle that indicates concern for yourself: healthy diet, exercise, rest, and relaxation.

The extra energy that comes from all these actions will help you manage the daily life and the inherent stresses so that those tensions become power for
positive actions rather than a negative force that blocks and withholds your energy.

Having the enthusiasm and confidence required for facing the daily issues, as well as a new and demanding relationship requires that you feel good about yourself. In most cases, this feeling good about yourself refers to take care of your real, deep needs and to fulfill them.

The process of self-appreciation begins with feeling good, both internally and externally. Your body will then be relaxed, full of energy and vitality, your complexion clear and glowing, your whole person radiating happiness and fulfillment - things that will only attract the others towards you.

Now: feeling good about your body is important as your contentment sense
of humor and merriness depends on this. You could not possibly be merry
and happy if you were constantly worrying about the way you look.

The concern for your physical body is also important because of its connection with the fact that a healthy body fights disease much better and effectively than a weakened organism.

Health is important, as ill or health is not only a state of the physical condition, but a state of the mind as well. Enthusiasm and self-confidence are much easily scattered when weakened by disease.

Sleep and rest are important issues in the process of gaining self-esteem. Neglecting your sleep, relaxation and rest can only have negative effects upon your building confidence, as your body is unable to replenish its resources.

A person lacking resources is very unlikely to have the mental harmony and inner balance required to face in a dignified manner the every-day challenges, both in the social life and in one's intimate, love life.

DIET AND NUTRITION

The most direct effect on your health, and the most visible one are through the diet.

This is also the aspect that we most often neglect. Nonetheless, we all know (or at least should) that a healthy body starts with a healthy diet.

The ancient saying "we are what we eat" is still valid these days, and will endure as long as there is life, as the molecules in the food we ingest constantly replace the cells in our body
