The Power of Being In the Moment

How do you deal with stress?

Here's a suggestion:

When you are feeling stressed, take a minute or so
to focus on your breathing.Gradually lengthen the
cycles of your breathing.

Notice how your feelings change, and how the built
up tension in your body begins to dissipate.

This same technique works for just about any type of
emotional state.

For example, if you are angry or upset, take a few
minutes to gather yourself and regroup with
some cycles of conscious breathing.

If you are feeling tired or sleepy, wake yourself
up with some deep, vigorous breathing.

There is another aspect to this type of breathing
that is very beneficial and powerful as well.

One of the side benefits to conscious breathing is
that it forces you to "be in the moment", at least
for a few minutes or so.

Being in the moment refers to a total focus on now.

You stop thinking about what happened in the past, and
you stop fretting about what may happen in the future,
or what you need to get done by x hour or date.

There is a concept in traditional martial arts called
"beginner's mind". The Japanese word for this is
"soshin".

As a beginner, the first time you do something you
really have to concentrate and focus in order to do
it correctly.

The idea of soshin is to continue to be like a beginner
when performing various tasks. No matter how trivial
a task is, retain the mindfulness of a beginner when
performing it.

Have you ever engaged in some kind of creative work,
or have you ever become so engrossed in doing something,
like playing and laughing with your kids, that you lost
all track of time?

This happened because you were living in the moment.
You truly felt more alive and energized by doing it.

It's an incredible feeling, almost a state of flow.

This is one of the things I love about the martial
arts...and one of the reasons I highly recommend it
for kids and adults. 

During hard training, you have to concentrate 100% on
the instructor's commands and on your movements. When
sparring or fighting, you have to be totally focused
on your opponent and your own strategy and tactics.

During these times, I lose all sense of obligations
and responsibilites outside of the training hall.

I stop worrying about what needs to get done, or the
latest problem or issue. Although these things await
me, for the moment I can just .... be. And enjoy!

Performing conscious breathing, or other types of
deep breathing exercises, can help you create these
moments of presence.

When you focus on your breathing and on how your body
feels in response to the breathing, you are in the
moment.

And at least for this moment, you forget about
responsibilities, issues, and demands.

You stop dwelling on health problems or aches and
pains. And you help yourself to relax and feel calmer,
more centered, and more in control...regardless of
what is going on around you.

Breathing exercises and being in the moment are not
instant cures for all that ails you.

But awareness of your breathing and of the present
moment can help you lead a calmer, more relaxed and
healthier life. It can also imbue everything you do
with more power.

I encourage you to put these concepts to work
by making them a regular part of your life.

Focusing On What Truly Matters

How was your Memorial Day holiday?

Although I have many readers from all over the
planet, I can't help but write about the holidays
we celebrate right here in the good ol' US of A.

For many people, Memorial Day means a long
weekend right at the cusp of summer, when the
weather is getting warmer and sunnier. Cookouts,
ice cold beer, laying out in the sun, maybe hitting the
beach or lake for the first time this season...it's
truly one of the more enjoyable holidays.

Living so close to Washington, as I do, I can't
help but focus on the real meaning of Memorial
Day.

It's meant to be a day to remember and celebrate
those who have served their country in the
armed forces. I think it also can serve as a
touchstone to what is truly important, not only
for our country, but for ourselves and our
families as well.

This is especially relevant today, as we endure
a seemingly endless presidential election
campaign, and we seem to be rehashing the 1960s
all over again. And as we grapple with major
global problems and opportunities. And as
we see nature's malignant side with the recent
devastating events in China and Burma (I will
never refer to that country by the M-name that
illegitimate junta imposed).

I always make it a point to go downtown and
participate in Memorial Day events. Not sure
why exactly, except that this holiday seems
to be one of those rare moments in our society
when people of all different ages, ethnicities,
political persuasions, and so forth lay down
their differences and come together.

And not in some hokey demonstration of patriotism,
which July 4th sometimes presents.

This coming together seems more sincere. We
mourn those we have lost - the ones we knew,
the ones we never knew. We celebrate them too.

I celebrate big time, knowing that there have
been men and women in the history of our
country who were willing to sacrifice everything
to preserve what it stands for.

As a mother, I find myself grappling with the
reality that, one day, my son may choose a
military career. We have a military tradition
going way back, on both sides of my family.

From my cousins who served as Marines, and my
dad who was a captain in the Army, before moving
on to a long and distinguished career in government
service...to my uncle who served in the Pacific
Theater during WWII...back to the Civil War era,
when my father's family lost four brothers who
served in the Union army, and my mother's side
lost several family members who served in the
Confederate army.

On the one hand, I would be proud for my son
to serve. On the other hand, I would be
scared to death that something might happen to
him. How to resolve that dilemma?

Well, for now, I resolved it by taking him with
me to the Memorial Day celebrations. He wanted
to see soldiers. So, for the first time, he
saw the changing of the guard at the Tomb of
the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National
Cemetary.

Have you ever seen it? If not, you should. Make
it a point if you come to visit Washington.
It's really something.

And we attended the Navy Memorial ceremony,
during which the sailors "charge" the fountain there
by pouring a huge canister containing water from
the Seven Seas. Pretty cool! And the Navy band
plays oldtime standards and popular songs
from the World War II era. (Which my son loved,
by the way. Go figure.)

And we attended part of the Memorial Day parade.
Hey, why not. We had flags with us, and we
wanted to wave them.

Don't get me wrong: I am not glorifying war.
So please, no nasty grams about how the U.S.
has messed up in Iraq.

My point is the importance of stepping back once
in awhile and considering what is truly important.
To get outside yourself and your immediate cares
and concerns, and think about things that are
larger than your life. And to feel the humility
and gratitude we all should feel for those
who have served.

Also, think about how valuable your own life is.
And how important are the people in your life. They
could be gone tomorrow. Hell, you and I could
be gone tomorrow.

So forget about the minutiae and the nitnoid stuff
that can so often trip you up and ruin your mood.
Let time stand still for a little while and focus
your attention on the present moment.

You Can Do It!

Five Easy Habits That Can Extend Your Life

It’s a known fact that individual lifestyle
choices greatly impact a person’s health.

A recent study completed in the U.K., and
then replicated in several other European
countries, provides new proof that lifestyle
factors make a huge difference in how long
you live - AND, equally important, in how
healthy you are, so you can actually be
active and vibrant and enjoy your longer life.

The studies also confirmed that it's not just
about doing one healthy thing, although that's
certainly a start. Longevity and quality of
life result from developing a handful of key
habits. And here are the four most important:

-Being a non-smoker
-Being physically active
-Consuming a moderate amount of alcohol,
meaning one to 10 drinks per week (of beer,
wine or alcohol)
-Having a blood vitamin C level consistent with
eating at least five servings of fruits/vegetables
daily. (The body doesn’t produce vitamin C and
relies on external sources, preferably fruits
and vegetables, but also from Vitamin C
supplementation.)

The study found that combining these four healthy
behaviors can add as many as 14 years to your
life.

This is encouraging news, because even small
differences in your lifestyle can make a big
difference in your health and in how long you
live.

On the other hand, poor lifestyle behaviors - like
not exercising, smoking, and eating a poor diet -
often underlie the development of the leading
chronic diseases / killers in our modern society:
heart disease, cancer, stroke and diabetes.

Here are five simple steps you should take to
leverage this information in your own life:

-Exercise regularly: including cardio or aerobic,
strength training, and flexibility exercises;
-Eat a healthy diet, with primary focus on getting
plenty of quality protein and fruits and vegetables;
-Follow a targeted supplementation plan;
-Get adequate rest and rejuvenation, including a
good night's sleep. And go into yourself on a
daily basis by taking the time to breathe deeply
and flow your internal energy;
-Don't smoke (or stop smoking if you do).

Pretty simple, isn't it? Aah, but the devil is in
the details.

If you're wondering exactly where and how to start,
or if you have already adopted one or more of these
habits but would like to kickstart your results,
you may be interested in becoming a member of
the Dynamic Fitness & Health Letter.

Because truth is, I hit on at least two or more
of these healthy habits in each issue of the Letter.

Now is a great time to join, because I am extending
the special offer for new and current members.

You see, over the past week or so, I have heard
from many people who, it seems, were just getting
around to reading their emails from me from the
previous week. And they want in on the special offer
for becoming a member of the Dynamic Fitness & Health
Letter.

Originally, I was only going to run this special offer
through the end of April.

Then I extended it through that first weekend in
May, or thereabouts, because the response was so
tremendous.

In fact, we have had so many new signups -
and renewals of existent members - that we are
having to send out the newsletter packages (including
this years' issues and all the special reports) in
batches. My local post office is wondering what the
heck is going on. (So, if you did sign up or are a
current member, and have not yet received your package -
do not fret. It is on its way!)

Anyhoo, because I appreciate how hectic things can
be for people, so they may not read their emails right
away...I am extending the Dynamic Fitness & Health
Letter special offer one more time...through the
end of the weekend.

And since it is a holiday weekend, you get one
more day to boot!

To see what the Letter and the special offer are
all about, go to http://www.bestbreathingexercises.com/NLInfo.html .

Or, you can go to the Best Breathing home page

If You're Caught Up, You're Dead

I talked to a good friend today who was going
bonkers with everything she has to get done.

Not that having a lot to do is unusual for her. She
has two kids, is involved in a lot of things, and
she also rides herself pretty hard.

This is someone you can find awake at midnight,
on her hands and knees cleaning the grout in her
bathroom with a toothbrush. Need I say more. A
bit anal, yes!

Couldn't the grout wait? And is it really such a
horrible thing if the grout is not sparkly white?

I have to admit, I commend anyone who is that driven
to have clean grout in her bathrooms. Lord knows
my bathroom could use some of her drive.

On the other hand, I do think that a big reason why
people get so overwhelmed, so frequently, is because
they think they have to get everything done.

Under this premise, everything is important and
must be handled. Which means the truly important
things become victims of the less important. Which
means that everything in your life becomes,
effectively, not important.

I learned several years ago to let go of the drive
to have a perfectly clean house. This was a tough
one for me, because I'm usually very orderly and
I like to keep things relatively clean and picked up.

My son takes the credit for disabusing me of this
notion. When you find yourself picking up the same
damn things for the fifth or sixth time in an
afternoon....well, you can soldier on, fight the
good fight, and drive yourself crazy.

Or you can punt and let the house get a little
messy for awhile...and pick it all up after the
kids are in bed.

Same goes for just about any area of your life. Work,
relationships, daily maintenance, self-development.

As an example, I have at least three different stacks
of books, just waiting for me to read them. The stacks
really bug me sometimes. In a perfect world, my normal
MO (modus operandi) would be to schedule a marathon
reading week or two, and crank, crank, crank through
those books.

But other people and things - important people and
things - demand my time and attention. So I take an
alternative route, which is to pick them off one at
a time.

I may not complete this reading in as timely a manner
as I would have wished, but I know that one day I
will get it done.

In the meantime, I am making sure I enjoy the process
of reading these books.

Instead of seeing this as one more self-imposed
"thing I gotta do", I reframe it as something I
really want to do, and I plan on having fun with it.

It makes a world of difference.

Well, since I just spent an hour talking my friend
down off the ledge (just kidding, she wasn't on a
ledge, but you know what I mean), I wanted to share
these thoughts with you today.

I don't know how your life is going right now, and
whether you are feeling calm, cool and relaxed, or
are feeling a bit (or a lot) frenzied, like my pal.

Either way, be sure to take it one thing at a time.
And enjoy the process. And take a deep breath, or two,
or ten anytime you begin to experience those manic
or obsessive thoughts.

Oh yeah, one more important thing to keep in mind:
if you are entirely caught up on everything that
needs doing in your life - you're probably dead.

I choose life!

You Can Do It!

Can A Banana Help You Lose Weight

I've had a lot of emails from people curious about
how they can have their cake and eat it too - the
subject of several of my Daily Tips last week.

Yes, it's true: you don't have to go to low-carb
hell to lose a significant amount of weight. You
can actually eat carbs - including starchy, sugary
carbs - and still lose weight.

How can this be?

Well, let me be clear about one thing. I'm not
giving you license to go crazy.

If you gorge on starchy and sugary foods, you will
not lose weight. And you will not put on the lean
mass that most people need to add...lean mass
which, by the way, burns more calories and makes
it even easier to peel off more fat or to
maintain your ideal weight once you get there.

Making sugary, starchy carbs a centerpiece of your
diet will also set you up for fun things like
diabetes and heart disease. (Yes, its the processed
carbs, NOT the natural fat from meat and dairy that
actually contributes to heart disease.) And, if you
have any kind of respiratory condition, such as
asthma, eating lots of carbs can cause
bronchoconstriction and wheeziness.

So why am I so keen on getting you to eat some
carbs?

Well, as I mentioned last week, your body and your
brain need carbs to function. If you've ever tried
a no-carb or low-carb regimen, I'm sure you have
experienced the headaches and relentless fatigue and
malaise that typically accompany them.

Sure, this "only" lasts for about the first two
weeks. But, if you're like me, you can't afford a
single day of headaches and fatigue. There's too
much goin on!

Here's the other thing: reducing your carbs to
incredibly low levels will help you lose some quick
weight. But it's very, very difficult to maintain this
type of restricted dietary regimen. More often than not,
people tend to come off these diets, binge like
crazy, and gain most or all of the weight right
back - within a matter of weeks.

Here's one more thing that irritates me: most of the
low carb programs stick you with certain types of
vegetables, and tell you that most fruits are off
limits.

They shout "high glycemic index" and "sugar". They
pick on such luscious, healthy fruits as the banana.

The banana is health and energy on wheels! Full of
so many vitamins and nutrients that I could write
a Daily Tip just on bananas (and maybe I will one
day).

For today, here's what you should know about bananas:
despite their high glycemic index, and despite the
fact they contain sugar...eating a slightly-less-than-ripe
banana will help you lose weight.

You see, the complex fiber in the banana makes you
feel full, so you eat less. And - here's the really
good part - the type of fiber found in bananas creates
by-products in your intestine (when it is being
digested) that help block the conversion of carbs
to fuel.

This forces your body to burn fat instead. How 'bout
that!

SO take that, all you crazy people who tell us that
fruits are off limits.

Having said all this, it IS true that manipulating
the carbs in your diet can help you achieve
substantial improvements in your body composition,
as well as more consistent energy levels and
mood.

But you have to be smart about it.

In the April issue of the Dynamic Fitness & Health
Letter - http://www.bestbreathingexercises.com/NLInfo.html -
I tell you about a strategy that allows you to eat
your bread and have cake too.

You see, it's not just about the quantity of carbs
you eat, or even the quality. There is another "x factor"
that can make the difference between putting on the
pounds and shedding them.

Putting this x-factor to work for yourself is easy
to do. The key is learning how to apply this strategy
exactly. And this is what I share with you in the April
issue.

How can you get your hands on this information?

It's easy: simply sign up to receive a FREE
issue of my Dynamic Fitness & Health Letter.

When you sign up for the Dynamic Fitness & Health
Letter, every month you will receive cutting edge
information, ideas and inspiration on exercise,
nutrition, breathing and more.

My approach is unique because I integrate a number
of different modes and approaches - ancient and
oldtime as well as leading-edge...western as well 
as eastern...exercises to build muscle as well as
exercises to cultivate internal energy and
power...all with the goal of helping you focus on
what's important and effective so you can achieve
better health and longevity.

From breathing, to exercise, to eating and
supplementation,to developing optimal mental and
spiritual habits...I can help you achieve results -
AND enjoy the process.

Here's another thing: a lot of what I have to share
with you runs counter to the prevailing conventional
"wisdom" you find in the major media magazines,
books and websites.

Over the years, I've tried the conventional approaches,
and even many of the fads. This stuff is pablum for
the masses...much of it mushy, bland gruel that
unfortunately doesn't work over the long term. Why do
you think obesity, heart disease, diabetes, and
other serious and chronic health conditions continue
to explode?

I promise you, there is a better way.

Lose Weight Effortlessly With One Simple Change

When it comes to dieting, one of the most controversial
areas has to do with the quantity of carbohydrates
you eat.

Over the past 15 years or so, low carbohydrate diets -
or "controlled" carbohydrate, as Dr. Atkins used
to describe his particular program - have proliferated.

Whether they mention carbs in their name or not,
these diets all follow pretty much the same principal:
drastically reduce the quantity of carbs in your diet,
and you will lose weight more quickly.

But your body and your brain need carbs to function. In
fact, your brain functions best on - believe it or
not - sugar!

Before you get too excited, this is sugar your
body manufactures. In other words, you do not
need to eat candy bars to rev up your brain. Sorry
you candy or chocolate addicts out there.

As anyone who has tried a very low carb diet knows,
you can indeed lose some poundage very quickly, and
without going hungry like you will be on a no-fat
diet.

However, there are three strikes against staying
on this type of diet for more than a brief period
of time.

First strike: much of the initial weight you lose is
water weight. Yes, you get rid of some bloat,
which is good. But you're not taking off the fat,
which is usually the goal.

Second strike: it's very, very difficult to maintain
this type of restricted dietary regimen for any
length of time. It's also unhealthy.

Third strike: in the very low-carb paradigm, you
basically are stuck eating only certain types of
vegetables. Any substantive amount of fruits or whole
grains - two foods which are very healthy - is off
limits.

In fact, some proponents even say that fruit
is bad for you, period - because fruit contains
that evil substance, sugar!

Listen, very low carb and moderate carb diets have
been around for a long, long time. I have some
old phsyical culture and health books from the
late 1800s and early 1900s, in which low-carb approaches
for losing weight are featured. And I also have some
bodybuilding books from the 1960s, 70s and early 80s,
which depict a low-carb diet as an important pre-contest
preparation step, to help the bodybuilder lose fat
and get cut prior to competition without losing
any hard-earned muscle.

Important point: these diets were considered to
be temporary. They were to be followed for a
short period of time only.

Even back in the day, common sense told people
that restricting a certain class of food or
macro-nutrient is unhealthy, leads to imbalances,
and usually results in bingeing and weight gain
later.

Having said all this, it IS true that manipulating
the carbs in your diet can help you achieve substantial
improvements in your body composition, as well as
more consistent energy levels and mood.

But you have to be smart about it.

In this month's issue of the Dynamic Fitness & Health
Letter - http://www.bestbreathingexercises.com/NLInfo.html -
I tell you about a strategy that allows you to eat
your bread and have cake too.

You see, it's not just about the quantity of carbs

I'll also throw in the January, February and
March issues...so you can get the scoop on the fat
loss strategy I was just talking about - plus a whole
lot more.

Having these first four issues of the year will
be invaluable to you, because I provide a sequence
of exercise, breathing and diet-related information
to help you get off to a rip-roaring start in 2008.

And to sweeten the deal, all new subscribers, as
well as existing members who are current on
their membership or have recently renewed, will
receive these four special reports:

"The Five Most Critical Mistakes People Make When
Beginning an Exercise Program - and How To Avoid
Them"...AND

"Five Principles to Supercharge Your Fitness
Program"....AND

"High Cholesterol: How to Fight It Naturally"...AND

"Eat More, Weigh Less: Nutritional Strategies to
Burn Fat and Lose Weight in All the Right Places -
Without Dieting or Deprivation".   

These four reports alone will jumpstart your
journey towards enhanced health and fitness. And
I've got a lot more coming for you as the year
progresses.

Even though we are already into May, it' not too
late for you to embark on a health and fitness
journey...and make 2008 the year you finally DO IT!.
It will be fun, I promise.

P.S. The Dynamic Fitness & Health Letter is a
members-only newsletter, published monthly and
delivered straight to your door. Each issue is
jam-packed full of information, insights and
perspectives to help you achieve a robust level
of health, fitness and energy.

It's definitely not the same ol' same old you see
in the fitness and health magazines or books. In
fact, a lot of what I have to share with you
runs counter to the prevailing conventional
"wisdom" out there. What I teach is much more
thought-provoking, practical - and fun!

I encourage you to become a Member and give the Letter
a test drive. Sign up today and you will receive
your free bonus reports along with all four of this
year's issues. Don't miss out! Go to
