When your body is unhealthy your mind is fuzzy. Are you caring For yourself physically? Your body is the vehicle that you use from the time you're born until the time you leave. If you want to enjoy this life, you must take care of your body. So we have to think about staying healthy. Remember the time when you had a cold, you just couldn't think straight… your mind was fuzzy.
"Strong, pure, and happy thoughts build up the body in vigour and grace. The body is a delicate and plastic instrument, which responds readily to the thoughts by which it is impressed, and habits of thought will produce their own effects, good or bad, upon it."
– James Allen, 1864-1912, Author of As A Man Thinketh
Sometimes we overwork in our business and tend to forget about taking care of ourselves. You want to keep yourself in the best physical condition so that you can actually perform better physically and mentally.
I know you've heard these before, but here's a reminder.
First is exercise. You need to do some sort of exercise daily… even if it's just walking. When you exercise there are two key elements you need for optimal results. They are: rest and nutrition… Not supplying your body with these two elements can be detrimental to your health when attempting to exercise.
Second is rest. We perform better when we are well rested. We think more clearly and our mind is not fuzzy. When were not rested we make stupid mistakes. Our mine does not function as well as when we are well rested. So the thing to is get a proper rest.
You need to make sure you get 6-8 hours of sleep each night. Remember everybody is different and everybody needs a different amount of sleep, however remember when you work out you do you need more sleep, just keep that in mind.
Give yourself a little break during the day and one of the the best things is to meditate for 10 to 15 minutes twice a day. This will release stress and refresh you at the same time. It helps to calm the mind and gives your body energy it needs to repair and rebuild itself.
"Meditation is one of the most powerful tools there is to help us restore the harmony within and to gain access to our body’s inner intelligence’s."
– Deepak Chopra
The third is nutrition. It is necessary to take high quality nutrition supplements each day and supplements for cleansing the body to get rid of the toxins and pollutants that we ingest during the day.
Eat healthy, stay away from fast foods and start eating more organically. Vegetables give your body the proper nutrients it needs to repair your muscles. However, a lot of the food that we eat are grown in depleted soils and therefore lack the nutrients necessary for our body.
It's also recommended that we eat more times each day, but smaller portions, like 5 to 6 times a day or as some people say, every three hours to make sure we get in the adequate amounts of nutrients in your system.
So to keep you mind from being fuzzy… keep your body healthy. Healthy body… healthy mind.
