Rest, Sleep and Movement
A Wellness Platform-- Part II
> Rest, Relaxation and Sleep
Rest, Relaxation and Sleep are some of the most important and most neglected components of health.
It seems as the American way to brag about how little sleep one needs. Our exhausted bodies must rely on coffee and other stimulants to keep up the charade. No machine is made to go full tilt non-stop, and the human body was not made that way either.
For me, relaxing and restorative rest sometimes needs an act of God! I have a demanding schedule at times and ask much of myself as well. I need support in to slow down and take needed respite. When I do that, I get much more accomplished and with way less stress! Workaholics Anonymous has some greattools and support for rest and relaxation, including these free documents for download:
Get--: > 1. WA Tools and Principles > 2. The Gifts of Rest
See the workaholics-anonymous.org page for more.
> Movement, Fitness, Wellness
The body needs both Aerobic and strength training as well as some moderate stretching, and guess what? When you feel good in your body and energy (from right eating, rest and so on) exercise is something your body will WANT to do!
What you do is what you tend to crave!
But sometimes, and especially if I've neglected fitness, I have to work on making it a vital part of my life.
I need to have a routine and/or plan and schedule my workouts, as the pros often suggest.
Tools for Movement

CAUTION!! Avoid Injuries, the major cause of interrupting your fitness training!

Especially regarding Strength Training-- in lifting weights you need to know your form and use caution.
