Let's learn the basics - Perfect Postures

Good posture is essential to a healthy lifestyle, but it is something that we often overlook. We sit hunched over a keyboard all day, or we slouch as we are waiting in line at the grocery store. We then go to bed with an aching back or a stiff neck. Good posture can also help in losing weight for the fact that the muscles are stretched. The act of muscle stretching is already a simple form of exercise and can already burn up calories. Walking with your body straight is the correct way of walking. It adds impact and intensity to walking when we make our body straight.

Asthma - A disease that affects your lungs

Asthma is caused by inflammation of the airways. These are the small tubes, called bronchi, which carry air in and out of the lungs. If you have asthma, the bronchi will be inflamed and more sensitive than normal. When you come into contact with something that irritates your lungs, known as a trigger, your airways become narrow, the muscles around them tighten and there is an increase in the production of sticky mucus (phlegm). This makes it difficult to breathe and causes wheezing and coughing. It may also make your chest feel tight.

Mind and body - The Expressions Of Life

Mind and body are parts of the whole of life. And we begin to understand their reciprocal relations in that whole. The life of man is the life of a moving being, and it would not be sufficient for him to develop body alone. All moving beings, however, can foresee and reckon up the direction in which to move; and this fact makes it necessary to postulate that they have mind. This foreseeing the direction of movement is the central principle of the mind.

Maintain a healthy heart with a healthy lifestyle

Our heart is a pump that keeps blood moving around our body. It delivers oxygen and nutrients to all parts of our body, and carries away unwanted carbon dioxide and waste products. As our heart muscle contracts, it pushes blood through our heart. With each contraction, or heartbeat:

• Our heart pumps blood forward from its left side, through the aorta (the main artery leaving the heart) and into the arteries. Blood from the right side is pumped to our lungs.

Alcoholism - Stop Drinking and Start Recovery

Alcohol addiction is a very common phenomenon. It helps in lowering your inhibition and relaxing each and every part of your body. The constant need to consume alcohol would be termed as alcoholism. 

You will notice when you are sozzled you start acting in different. You have discovered a new language due to lack of control on your speech. If you are not a regular drinker you may start feeling drowsy at the first peg itself. If the alcohol content is very high you start emoting different feelings, sometimes happiness sometimes sadness. As and when the content increases you may start vomiting and may also suffer from breathing difficulties. 

Feel Young - Keep yourself physically and mentally fit

You're only as old as you feel. While we can't dodge our next birthday, how we approach life every day can make a big difference. "Feeling young is about maintaining vitality as you get older. Some people never feel old, despite their chronological age." No matter what your stage in life, staying active and being positive will help keep you in a youthful frame of mind. All these depend on your mental health.
