Yoga for Muscle Strength, Flexibility and Weight Loss

Yoga for Muscle Strength, Flexibility and Weight Loss


Every morning, first thing I do (even before I make coffee) is stretch and do a Yoga Flow.  I find so many benefits by being a yogi because I have the ability to move and be flexible which is so crucial as I get older.

Now, is Yoga great for weight loss.  

Yes!  BUT you have to take a multifaceted approach to losing weight.

-Eating a cleaner more portioned controlled diet

-Putting aside time for a cardio activity

-Making emotional stressors avoided

But Yoga does get you in-tuned with your body.  When you feel better about yourself, I find; complimenting yoga with a strength conditioning workout is so beneficial for the long term to avoiding inflammation and injuries.

Also Yoga improves your mode, unlocks emotions trapped in our body (mostly where were the most inflexible) and gives you time to stand still and spend some time in silence.  Perfect for meditation and clearing the mind before the day begins.

Always be Stretching and find your Yoga flow!

Today I printed my new business cards, picked up my latest edition of New Mind, New You Book, consigned some clothes at Buffalo Clothing Exchange, posted a few items for sale on Facebook Marketplace, blogged on my website, went grocery shopping at Wal-Mart, went to LVAC for calves, abs and cardio and even had enough time to was able to go home to Gene and go over our day and just hanging out for a bit before bedtime. I am in amazement over having almost no anxiety.  That’s a biggest part I see.  Also not wasting time scrolling, posting or writing content and really finishing my day doing serious constructive activities to make a living.  I'm also not needing to take pictures of everything I see or am doing thinking that it would make a good ...

What would your Mandala look like?    What colors and shapes would you choose?  How would it represent you? Color therapy is real. It’s defined as Chromotherapy. But let’s go into details about what a Mandala is and how it defines and represents you. A mandala is an integrated structure organized around a unified center.  From the classical Indian word “Sanskrit” And loosely translated to mean “Circle” but a mandala is far more than just a circle.  It represents wholeness, and can be seen as a organize structure to represent the meaning of life.  A mandala diagrams the infinite meaning into our soul and representatives a dream into our being both in this world and past that to what we cannot see.

What is Whey and Caesin Protein? Dairy protein supplements best selling 2 source of protein powders on the market. How do these powerhouses compare?  Both are complete proteins with amino acids and easily digested by 97% in the body.  Both are extremely popular but don’t share the same benefits. Whey-  their digestion faster rate to reach amino acids higher and reach blood faster Caesin-with a curdling effect is slower up to 8 hours in the body and slowly digested. Lucien is a amino binding syntheses and has more immediate to the body with whey and spikes blood sugars higher but Caesin carries more protein syntheses is also leaves the blood elevated up to 36 hours which releases less Lucien levels than whey.

Caesin focused on protein breakdown with less luecin but whey has a faster generated effect to effect muscle gains in a quicker process.  So yes, whey is a short part more faster to recover but ...
