Breathing

Above all, the most important step to take when healing ourselves is to be conscious of our breath, having a proper diet and water consumption suited to your lifestyle, practicing yoga and or meditation and getting an adequate amount of rest. The breath is the most vital source of life we take into our bodies. With out it, we cannot oxygenate our blood and the healthy cells of our body will die. Our brain needs oxygen the most, and after four to six minutes of starving it of oxygen, brain cells start to die, and they are gone forever. When we panic, get angry or have an influx of emotions, the breath loses its proper composure and creates havoc on our bodies. We need to remember to breathe deep into the abdomen at all times, not only into the chest. Breathing deep is very calming and releases tension all over the body. Besides breathing, diet also has a big impact on our health state.
