Relaxation exercise

In today's hectic world relaxation is something we all need to fit into our schedules, for both our physical health as well as our emotional well-being. Simple breathing and stretching exercises are powerful tools for relaxation, lowering blood pressure, releasing tension, and focusing on the task at hand.

Tips for breathing and stretching

• Through deep full breaths you improve oxygenation of your blood and send nourishment to every part of your body.
• When you breathe deeply your body relaxes, this explains why most relaxation techniques are based on slowing down your breathing.
• Breathe deeply and slowly, in rhythm with your body's movements. Never hold your breath.
• When stretching don't bounce or force a stretch, always breathe and relax into it.
• It's always better to do one or two stretches correctly and completely, rather than rush through many stretches.

Spiritual Tip

"Master Power"

I believe it was Mozart who was once asked "when, and where did you ever think of the divine theme for your Ninth Symphony?"

"Well, it was like this," began the great master, "I went for a walk out in the country, and when it got hot and I got hungry, I just sat down by a little brook and unpacked my bologna and cheese. And just as I opened the greasy paper that 'darn tune' just pops into my head!"

I don't think I'll swear to the authentic accuracy of this little incident, but it does point to a great power: CREATIVITY HAPPENS WHEN WE RELAX! Positive, relaxed imagination is the winged angel of God bearing unforeseen good and goods.

How did He say it, "In quietness... you shall find your strength!"
