Holosync Solution Provides Meditation For People With No Time To Meditate
Oct 6th
Meditation always sounds like a chore, which is somewhat contradictory when you consider it is a relaxing expedition designed to take your mind away from the chores and stresses of every day life. Mediation is capable of relieving stress, promoting health, increasing brain power and judging by the Buddhist monks in China, making us live longer. Yet in our busy lives that involve 70% work and the other 30% family life (sound familiar?) one doesn’t have the time for meditation retreats or even evening classes – a crying shame considering the benefits available.
However, I recently came across a bright prospect for achieving a meditative state very quickly and easily called Holosync. The Holosync solution has actually been around for a fair while and there is plenty of press on the internet about it. Being a self development addict I decided to give it a go as I really needed to create some space in my head away from work and all the demands being put on me at the moment.
What interested me greatly was reading that Holosync mediation is a brainwave technology that requires little effort to implement; in fact it is referred to as the “lazy man’s way to meditate”. What Holosync meditation does is stimulate the creation of new neural pathways between the right and left hemispheres of your brain, balancing your brain and leading you to a high-performance state scientists call “whole brain functioning. I have always wondered what would be possible for man if we could use more of our brain capacity and I thought this might be a good place to start.
So, I embarked on the course and documented my progress in the hope that it might help others seeking similar head-space.
How to Beat Holiday Stress
Sep 24th
Holidays like Christmas and New Year are among the happiest times on earth. These are the times when busy people can visit their old neighborhood and spend time with their family. These are also the times for reuniting with old friends and schoolmates.
But even on such happy occasions, people can still get stressed. Yes, attending one party after another is a good way to enjoy, but it can also be quite stressful. Preparing foods, cleaning and decorating the house can be tough chores. Even trying to budget your money for holidays can also be stressful. Fortunately, there are several ways you can beat holiday stress.
First of all, what you need to do is to always exercise. Remember, during holidays, there will be a lot of eating, sitting, standing, drinking and laughing. Most of these activities do not involve exercise. Sitting down to eat or drink and standing up to get food or drinks is not the kind of exercise you need.
Schedule early morning walks or you may try jogging. This will allow you to sweat off all the calories and cholesterol that you have acquired and help you feel good. You see, when people exercise, their body produces chemicals like serotonin and dopamine which can make you feel good about yourself and the holidays.
Sleep for at least 8 hours. Do not be in a hurry to get out of bed. It is a holiday; you do not need to rush yourself. Sleeping allows your body to maintain its normal function and allows you to get rid or reduce the effects of stress.
Learn other relaxation techniques such as meditation. Some people may be skeptical about this technique, but it is really effective. Many studies have shown of its benefits. In fact, it is a technique which has been practiced by so many people from all over the world.
Usually, this technique is practiced while listening to soft and relaxing music such as the ones you can find in a Holosync meditation music CD.
