Take Life as it Comes
June 2, 2009
Taking life as it comes does not mean living without goals. What it really means is to take negative circumstances as well as we take positive ones in our lives by keeping a balanced state of mind. I often hear people say “I deserve it” about something they desired and on the contrary if there is a negative circumstance, the reaction is “Why me?” Life is full of surprises with good ones and bad ones, so we must be ready to live through the situations we have little control over by living one day at a time.
Before you start to worry about any situation or get upset, ask yourself this question: “Is my worrying going to resolve this issue?” If not, then worrying or getting upset will only add to this problem. Then, focus on problem-solving to see if there is an available solution to help the situation. If it is something you can do nothing about, it is pointless to fight it. For example, if there is traffic due to an accident, it will not do any good for you to resist it. In this case, this is one of those little surprises life throws at you. You should relax and find another way to utilize your time in the car.
It also makes you wonder, What is the point of taking charge of my life if bad things are going to happen anyway? This is exactly where taking life as it comes, comes in handy, because you should strive to keep life as simple as possible. Since there is no way to know what will come your way, you will find yourself learning through trial and error and getting through situations you have little control over. This simple balanced state of mind will make you feel in control of the situation and not interfere with your judgment to make better decisions.
Benefits from Sauna
April 10, 2009
There is something about heat that makes everything in our body move more flexibly. Just like cold makes everything freeze and numb, heat melts and breaks open any numbness. Sauna is a dry heat bath that makes your body sweat within a few minutes. It is natural heat that relaxes and calms your body. A Sauna bath can be enjoyable after your daily workout as it cleanses your body from all sorts of toxins and soothes any sore body muscles.
When I first went into a Sauna bath my face felt the scorching heat and I didn’t think I would even make it for five minutes. Seven minutes later, I came out feeling a psychological peace and contentment as well as physical rejuvenation. Later, I kept doing Sauna after my daily workout and started observing improvements. I was relieved from my allergies, sharpened in my senses, clear complexion, and had no muscle soreness after tough workouts.
There are some things I did that helped me before going into the Sauna bath:
· Drink plenty of water so you are well hydrated; this will also help release the toxins when you sweat while in Sauna bath.
· Use water to wet the exposed bare skin before going into the sauna room so the body will not feel the extreme heat shock and will slowly adjust to the Sauna temperature.
· When in the Sauna room, try to think calm or happy thoughts to relax your mind. You can always take a book if you feel more relaxed while reading.
· Pace yourself by coming out of the Sauna room every five minutes if you need to get use to the temperature.
After a while, I was so excited and ended up sharing with one of the trainers at the gym about what was happening on how I was benefitting from doing Sauna baths. He explained further saying that Sauna also increases your metabolism and your pulse rate increases with blood vessels becoming much more flexible. Therefore, it has lots of benefits without any work. Slowly, I have improved my timing to stay in the Sauna room, and now I can stay in a Sauna bath for as long as fifteen to twenty minutes.
Exercising helps achieve all our physical fitness goals but adding Sauna into our daily workout routine will help put us in excellent condition.
Word from God
March 9, 2005
Water starts from white snow (it’s holy and pure, that’s when we were born from your mother’s womb). It melts and it comes down with a new hope to this world on the way it rushes thru the stones of the mountains. Running down finding new things on the way poked by thorns and tossed by stones. On the way, it helps the fishes other species (people around them; preaching the gospel). Its goal is to reach the ocean. A lot of them don’t make it to the sea, they dry out. They been blocked by that dam (worldly things) other (luxuries things against God’s will).
As the dam tries to stop this water, it breaks the stops and runs over to seek its destiny. Which is the sea. Once it reaches its destiny, there is the God of Almighty holding a Golden crown says my daughter/son you have finished your race.
Blessed is he who followed the Christ.
