"There are many reasons why physical activity is good for your body – having a healthy heart and improving your joints and bones are just two, but did you know that physical activity is also beneficial for your mental health and wellbeing?
We need to change the way we view physical activity in the UK in order not to see it as something we ‘have to do’, ‘should do’ or ‘ought to do’ for our health, but as something that we do because we personally value its positive benefits to our wellbeing."

"By holding a positive and optimistic [word] in your mind, you stimulate frontal lobe activity. This area includes specific language centers that connect directly to the motor cortex responsible for moving you into action. And as our research has shown, the longer you concentrate on positive words, the more you begin to affect other areas of the brain.
Functions in the parietal lobe start to change, which changes your perception of yourself and the people you interact with. A positive view of yourself will bias you toward seeing the good in others, whereas a negative self-image will include you toward suspicion and doubt."

Interesting read 🤓
"Spirulina is a blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) that grows in freshwater (some strains of spirulina even live in hot springs!). It’s extremely high in protein, contains an almost perfect balance of Omega-3 to Omega-6, and is rich in the following minerals: iron, copper, calcium, magnesium, potassium, phosphorous, selenium and zinc. It also contains high levels of vitamin A, C, E, K, B6, folate, niacin, pantothenic acid, riboflavin and thiamin."

"According to UCLA’s Mindfulness Awareness Research Center, regularly expressing gratitude literally changes the molecular structure of the brain, keeps the gray matter functioning, and makes us healthier and happier."

“If our theory is correct, then it could have a tremendous impact on treating cases of depression and other behavioral disorders that may be driven by inflammation,” Miller says.
“It would open up opportunities for the development of therapies that target energy utilization by immune cells, which would be something completely new in our field.”

Stress accounts for over 60% of doctor visits and much of that #stress results from people continually thinking and #worrying about the past and the future. Often we literally “are not here” but instead are “in our head” thinking and worrying. It appears that #meditation and other practices were originally developed as ways to help maintain a healthy balance of the life we live “in our head” and the life we live as immediate experiences.
In meditation thoughts tend to diminis...h at times and so you become more familiar with the silence and #stillness that remain. Through meditating regularly, you become more and more familiar with that silence and stillness, which then helps you recognize and expand that #silence and stillness in everyday life.
Spending time alone in #nature is another way to become more familiar with and expand silence and stillness. Take long walks alone in the forest, fields or parks.
For you however, meditation and time alone in nature may not shift the balance of thoughts and experience. For you, that balance may shift through #gardening, #dancing, #yoga, #singing, tai chi, sports, making music, knitting, etc. You are the only one who can know what shifts the balance for you from living life "in your head" towards living life more in the present moment.
And when you notice the silence and stillness, stay with them and sink into them. - Inner Peace Fellowship.

This in turn will improve our reaction time, help with math, logical reasoning, treat fatigue and of course, improve our moods."

"We found that eating one cup of blueberries per day resulted in sustained improvements in vascular function and arterial stiffness – making enough of a difference to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease by between 12 and 15 per cent."

" A 2013 study on mice published in the journal Brain, Structure and Function used differed types of noise and silence and monitored the effect the sound and silence had on the brains of the mice. The silence was intended to be the control in the study but what they found was surprising. The scientists discovered that when the mice were exposed to two hours of silence per day they developed new cells in the hippocampus. The hippocampus is a region of the brain associated with memory, emotion and learning."

"Aside from the almost instant feeling of calm and contentment that accompanies time outdoors, hiking in nature can reduce rumination. Many of us often find ourselves consumed by negative thoughts, which takes us out of the enjoyment of the moment at best and leads us down a path to depression and anxiety at worst. But a recent study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences found that spending time in nature decreases these obsessive, negative thoughts by a significant margin."
