Stimulate your metabolism for more weight loss with this one simple breathing trick

Good Day! I hope you are Well!!

There are two types of breathing there is shallow breathing which occurs mostly in the chest and deep breathing which occurs mostly in the abdominals. Shallow breathing only brings air into the top two lungs & deep breathing brings oxygen into all five of your lungs. Because the oxygen in shallow breathers only reaches the top two lungs, the overactive nerve receptors turn on the “fight or flight” response. The continuous “fight or flight” response causes a build-up of stress chemicals and stress hormones. Whereas when you take deep rhythmic breaths you turn on nerve receptors that have a calm and regenerative effect on the body.

According to Dr. Robert Giller ,M.D., who wrote maximum metabolism, “of the factors affecting metabolism there are more under our jurisdiction than those that aren’t.” This means two very key things, you can change your metabolism and you can change the rate at which your body burns food. Pam Grout in her book Jump start your metabolism stated “ for every 4.8 calories the average person’s body burns 1 Liter of oxygen. In other words, your metabolism is nothing but a measure of how much oxygen you burn.” If you take in more oxygen naturally you are going to burn more oxygen, so the key to weight loss is as simple as taking in more oxygen.

It may surprise you but what you wear can play a big role in your breathing. Have you ever noticed that some clothes are just tight and they don’t allow you to move very well, these are clothes I am talking about. These shirts and jeans can cut off circulation and can cause muscles to turn on or turn off due to a change in how we move.pam grout suggests in her book Jumpstart Your Metabolism to watch out for these clothes:
• “clothes that pinch your waist or squeeze your stomach
• clothes that are too small press enter type belts or waistbands
• tight bras, underwear or socks
• tight belts or waistbands
• tightly knotted scarves or neckties
• high heels or shoes that pinch
• girdles, corsets,” control top” anything”

To increase your metabolism:

1) Take 10 deep breaths, 5 times throughout the day

-it helps if you set an alarm

-do ten deep breaths up waking, with breakfast, with lunch, with dinner, and before bed
2) to take a deep breath allow your abdominals to expand and let your diaphragm drop( this sends chemical messages to your brain to stimulate production of chemicals to relax)

Thank you for reading and remember!

Have a great Day!
Take care! God Bless!

5 steps to Accomplishing your Dreams and Any Goal along the way

Hello! I hope you are doing well today!!

It was Zig Ziglar who stated “a goal properly set is half reached.’ Establishing the purpose you will seek to fulfill, will allow you to decide the road you will take at this fork. Ultimately your future is whatever you make it.

1) Set a long term goal of 6-12 months. My goal and driving force for the last few months has been to “learn and grow as much as I possibly can. When the time is right and I must complete my purpose, I will be ready to take on my task which god has given to me.” Pick a topic and start learning. After 6 months you will have improved greatly and after a year of constant education you will be an expert.

3) Set a Date to complete your long term goal by. This will get you motivated to start immediately because when there is a deadline every second counts.

2) Set short term goals. Short term goals are between 1 hour and 1 week. Medium goals are from 1 week to 5 months But those are of less importance right now.  After you have established your long term goal and the actions you will need to complete your goal. Break these actions down into bite size pieces. You can chew part of the task each day as you progress throughout your normal schedule. Many of these pieces consist of daily and even hourly goals depending on how many tasks you are stacking together.

3)Quantify the goal you want to reach, divide that quantity by the number of days between now and the day you have set to complete your goal in. This gives you the baseline amount you must complete to accomplish your goal on time.

4)look at what others have done before you. Sometime in history there was a person who was in your same shoes. Look them up, see how they accomplished their tasks, how they handled issues, who they learned from, what they learned and how they packaged their product.

5) Head into action!!

Thank you for reading! I hope you enjoyed this post.

Take care!!

God Bless!!
