Take A Walk On The Grass

Take A Walk On The Grass

When is the last time that you took off your shoes and yours socks and you walked barefoot on the grass.  If you’re older than twelve I’m guessing it has been quite some time.  It’s funny, when we’re kids, if we see a mud puddle we JUMP right in it.  When we become adults we walk around the mud puddle.  Not only do we walk around the mud puddle…we complain about it! 

Stop complaining.  It’s not really serving you.  Start living.  Get outside and re-connect with our planet.  This isn’t some hippy dippy statement.  We (human beings) are electrical beings.  That’s right, we are electrical beings.  Electricity is constantly flowing through our bodies.   In fact, without electricity you wouldn’t be reading this post right now.  Without electricity running through your body your brain would cease to function. 

Sometimes we need to re-charge.  We need to “ground” ourselves.  One of the ways to do this is by getting outside and walking barefoot on the grass.  While you’re walking (barefoot of course) do some deep breathing – you’ll be accomplishing two things at the same time (there is nothing like multi-tasking when it comes to your health).  Walking barefoot on the grass will “ground” you, literally.  Doing this will help you release built up electrical energy that’s in your body.

As stated above, your entire nervous system is run on electrical energy.  Get walking, ground yourself, do your deep breathing, and make some positive changes in your life.  This doesn’t cost you a dime.  What have you got to lose?

Practice Deep Breathing

Remember To Breathe

Of course, you’re thinking…”What do you mean, ‘Remember To Breathe’?  Isn’t that just automatic in humans?”  Yes, we are all breathing from the moment we are born until we pass away.  But, what is the quality of those breaths?  Are we constantly doing shallow chest breathing or are we doing deep, diagaphramic breathing into our belly?  The difference is astounding.

When we are doing “chest breathing” we are usually anxious, stressed, and sometimes short of breath.  When we do “diagaphramic breathing” we are calmer, relaxed (we’re not holding our shoulders up around our ears), and we are usually happier. 

This coming week we are going to be interviewing Human Behavorist and Body Language Expert, Mark Edgar Stephens on the power and importance of the correct way to breathe.  Mark will share with us how he has seen peoples lives begin to change (for the better) once they change their breathing habits.  It will be a great interview.

Mark is also the author of the inspirational book, “Who Are You Choosing To Be?”  You can read his blog here.  If you would like to know more about Mark and his work you can vist his website at http://www.markedgarstephens.com/ You can also follow Mark on Twitter @MarkEStephens
