Research has shown that learning to identify less with your thoughts and feelings by noting them as they come and go can reduce the intensity of feelings of stress and worry by up to 50%.
‘Make a Start’
Make a Start’ 6 week Exercise programme. I am here to offer you a simple to follow exercise regime that will slip easily into your lifestyle.
For many of us exercise is something that doesn’t come naturally; we are all busy and tend to make excuses not to rather than to exercise. Sometimes it’s that we are too tired, or cannot be bothered to get into the car and head to either to the gym or head outside in the cold for a walk. You do not need an expensive gym all you need is a good pair of trainers and a positive mind-set to get started.

The benefits of exercise are so great there really isn’t an excuse not to.
Benefits include;
Delay the ageing process but most importantly after 20 minutes of aerobic activity you will feel better, your heart will pump fresh blood filled with oxygen around your body and the wind and sun on your face will make you feel fantastic.
It doesn’t take too much effort or time to get started.
Flexibility and Balance
The following 6 week plan is aimed at sedentary people, that is for those who don’t exercise or haven’t for a while
Each week follow the routine starting with a gently 20 minute walk on day 1, week 1.
Stretching first thing in the morning helps eliminate muscle and joint stiffness from sleep and stimulates circulation, which slows during sleep. Similarly, stretching before bed helps relax both body and mind to promote better sleep. And stretching for a few minutes every hour or two throughout the day will keep muscles from cramping. Whether it’s a few simple stretches or an entire yoga routine, stretching reduces both physical and mental stress. It will improve flexibility and balance, as well as sharpen concentration and boost your mood. And it’s easy to do anytime, anywhere, and at any fitness level.
Zen Chi Exerciser
The Chi Machine is the result of 38 years of medical and scientific research by renowned Japanese scientist Dr. Shizou Inoue. He invented the Chi Machine to enable the human body to gently sway from side to side in a figure of eight (the same way a goldfish swims), with absolutely no pressure or stress to the body as in traditional forms of exercise where the body is normally erect.
Chi Machine Benefits include muscle pain relief, increase in local blood circulation and oxygen via gentle motion of the entire body, energy increase, mental focus, stable back support alignment (used lying flat), promotes lymph drainage (as documented in Australian clinical trials), internal massage, physical and mental release from tension, fatigue and stress, the promotion of deeper, improved breathing, balance of the autonomic nervous system and relaxation. When the machine stops, a unique rush of Chi energy is felt from head to toe.
