Meditation?

    Now I personally am a true believer in the benefits meditation can hold for our being, mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually, and even more, if done reguraly and properly. Meditation has been found to,
help lower stress which is linked to heart disease and stroke,

it lowers blood pressure.
Fights against depression.
Helps in focusing allowing better memory as well as eye hand coordination.
Helps strengthen the brain in many ways.
Iv read it can help improve sex life.
Boosts immune system.
Helps fight and prevent asthma.
Fights epilepsy.

The list goes on and on due to the larger hippocampal and the volumes of gray matter meditation brings helping Things that are linked to even more problems that effects a beings health.

    Iv done some meditation myself  and allot of reading, and what I tend to find in both personal experience as well as in my research is that time can be a huge factor.  It seems to always be hard to find time specially when the best time for meditation is in the morning before your day truly starts getting you ready for what ever the day has in store. For most that's precious time for getting ready for work, or maybe they have children, or there are many other factors.
    I found this amazing free meditation program that has been made into an app for phones or ipads, its for those who do not have time in the morning for meditation. It'd called Headspace and starts you out with a very easy 10 step program starting at 10 minutes which is perfect for those short on time. It also has a super relaxing voice narrating and helping you along if you are new to meditation, and after there are even other programs the app offers but I done believe they  are free like the 10 step program.

Reading PLU codes of fruit and vegetables to find gmos

  Next time you your shopping and buy some fruit, make sure to check the PLU code for it can tell you a great deal of information to help be a healthier being. Iv done allot of reading on this because I personally believe gmos and unnecessary pesticides are a bad thing and are detrimental to the vessels health. For those who also believe this or are interested in it then those little code stickers on fruit you buy are called PLU codes. They can inform you if its organic, Genetically Modified, or even conveniently grown which is fancy for what they call the standard form of growing which can involve pesticides, forms of herbicieds, fungicieds, hormones, and more.
   I was on the International federation For Produce (IFPS) and in its 20 or so page document on PLU codes it has allot of the information you will need to start reading these labels correctly. Acordding to what I have read in that and other sources, codes starting in 3 or 4 can indicate it was grown conveniently, 8 indicates its a Genetically Modified Organism, and 9 indicates its was grown organically. So for those interested keep an eye out for eating  healthy is one of many parts to a healthier being. Avoid codes on fruit and veggies starting with 8 and even 3 and 4 if you can, if not, take the peal of what ever it is and throw it away and wash the fruit or veggie thoroughly before eating.
Lets keep this temple healthy.
Peace.

Inflammation?

For those with inflammation issues there are many remedies to help address the problem. Anti inflammation properties have been found in many substances such as ginger, celery, garlic, cinnamon, turmeric, blueberries, or anything containing omega-3 fatty acids and a lot more. So for those with arthritis, carpel tunnel, tendentious, or anything else that causes painful inflammation you can find and create many different remedies to help you step by step through the day. Spices like turmeric are convenient because they can easily be added to a drink or meal easily, as well as cinnamon and ginger. So next time planning a meal fuse a few anti inflammatory items together in your meal to help keep up on your healthy being.

  It's important to keep up with inflamation but also it is important to not over do it depending on the case. Inflamation is one of the ways our vessel starts to heal and to eliminate the problem, but Iv also read that depending on the case and the severity of the inflamation it can be linked to diseases and even cancer. Inflammation can cause problems if it's let out of hand but if properly looked after it can be a big part of a healthy being, we just got to level it out perfectly so we can still get the natural bennefits of it with out the negative effects.

Let's keep those vessels healthy

Peace.

A little chia seed can be a big help

Chia seeds can easily be added to most drinks and meals for those of you lacking protein in your diet without Completely changing the the way you eat. They also contain a very large amount of omega-3 fats for there size, which I read can help your body fight to prevent cancer, memory loss, and heart disease.They also contain important antioxidants, as well as calcium, fiber and more creating a good addition to any meal for those looking for a healthier being.
These seeds have also been linked to helping against aging skin due to there powerful antioxidents, bone strengthening from the calcium, and even more bennefits do to the range of minerals and other beneficial substances within a chia seed. Just the same as most things though, they're side effects, such as gas or stomach pain when consuming high amounts. Iv also read it may act weird with some forms of medication, for example blood thinners or other medication where thinning blood is a side effect or problem.
Keep that Vessel healthy.
Peace.

A Quenching morning

Instead of having coffee every morning try freshly squeezed lemons in a glass of water, this drink supposedly has many healthy benefits for keeping a healthy vessel. Iv read that this everymorning can contribute in helping your body absorb vitamins and minerals and even help your body's digestion which is essential in a healthy being. The combination of the Hydration the water gives you and the fresh lemon juice containing beneficial nutrients and vitimans such as, vitimans B which is good for energy and replenishing red blood cells, as well as most fruit it contains vitiman which is a mass importance to any vessels immune system as we all know. That plus another handful of vitamins and powerful properties, no wonder this drink has the capability to be a very powerful addition to help become a healthier being. Iv also read this drink could be excellent for a cold as well, or other chest related problems because it has the potential to fight lung infection, and supposedly  even more beneficial properties then this. I am still learning about morning drinks and the benefits of them, even this simple mixture from what Iv read can do even more then I described but like most things, studies still need to be done to ensure its potential. Some say its better for it to be warm to help protect your teeth from the lemon and because it hydrates us quicker that way. After I try it out for a month or so ill comment on this and tell you what I personally think.
Lets keep those vessels healthy.
Peace.
