Stress Relief Exercise

Stress Relief Exercise

During stress, the adrenal gland in our body secrets two kinds of dangerous hormones, i.e  adrenaline and cortisol.

The adrenaline hormone boots up the blood pressure, and is the very cause of tensions as well as malfunction of the nervous system and internal organs.  While the cortisol destroys the T-cells ( white blood cells) in the body thus it weakens the immune system of a stress person.

These two stress hormones are sufficient to destroy our total health and fitness since they pave the way to the emergence of various stress-related diseases such as high blood pressure, stroke, indigestion, ulcer, heart attack, insomnia, etc. Not only that they also disturb our business and social engagement and relationship due to the imbalance emotional expressions during stress.

The stress-relief exercise is a glandular exercise, which is specifically designed to bring the balnce of hormonal secretions of the endocrine glands in our body and smooth flow of energy in the cakras (psychic energy centers).  It is a combination of simple energizing stretching, deep breathing, positive-thinking practice as well as visualization that automatically revitalize all functions in our biological and psychological system.  In short, the regular practice of this exercise results in:

·        Self-rejuvenation/self-energization

·        Deep relaxation/stress-relief

·        Better body flexibility

·        Improved physical health and mental balance

·        Self-awareness and better concentration

·        Enhanced positive thinking, self-confidence and optimism
