    Influence of the Mind: Eastern vs Western Culture

  • I would like to speak about a few subtle differences about eastern and western culture when it comes to the form of external and internal energy. I would also like to speak about the differences in the gym environment and the emphasis of preventative exercise vs reactive exercise.

      First and foremost, this is not about politics, religion, or economics. The classification of western vs. eastern culture is a mere generalization of what may be seen, but does not allude to any guarantees of validity.

      In my opinion many western cultured individuals are focused on superficial energy. We are set in a reactive exercise habit, and are not exercising to achieve balance within our bodies. We routinely drive to a gym, to physically drain our bodies of any energy it may have had. We run and sprint until we can barely walk, we force our bodies to lift two-five times our own body weight, and generally work out for the sole purpose of appearances. We do not in a sense work out for ourselves, our internal balance and energy, we work out for others to admire, cherish, and loathe us. Now I’m not saying there is anything wrong with that, people will and can do what they want, when they want. The point I’m simply trying to make is there are different ways to do things.

      In many eastern cultures exercise is not seen as a past time, but a daily ritual built into culture. Daily exercise is meant to strengthen your mind, internal organs by releasing toxins, and body at the same time. Tai Chi, Qigong, Meditation, and Yoga are just a few ways to achieve such balance. By achieving a balance within yourself you will be able to do the western culture thing, but will also feel 100% better doing the eastern and western.

  • Preventative Exercise vs. Reactive Exercise:
     Preventative exercise in essence is creating a healthy environment for your body to live in. You routinely try to reach a balance in your life, be it at school, work, lunch, dinner, gym, etc. Reaching a balanced lifestyle allows you to prevent any more serious illnesses which may occur. Seen today more than 65% of Americans are overweight or obese, some at their own fault. I sympathize for these individuals and wish to share my knowledge to help them reach a balanced lifestyle.

     Reactive exercise is basically exercising in a reaction to a reason to exercise. You go to the doctor, and he says you need to lose weight, aka your overweight, then you react and exercise. Reactive exercise may fix the problems, but it doesn’t prevent them. Reaching a balanced lifestyle WILL HELP!

Sunny Sunday: Being Mentally Sound

Learn How to Be Mentally Sound

  I want you to take a moment before we focus on your Sunday dose of living a rich, healthy lifestyle, and after reading this paragraph just simply embrace the following words:

  ”You are waiting in line to pay for your usual Starbucks Mocha Late. Your mind starts to ponder about how lovely it would be to take a much needed vacation. You would love to spend time with your loved one or family, that you so rarely devote enough time to because of work. You are working the hardest you ever have to earn money, and are simply unable to be there for loved ones as you would like to be. In the back of your mind your usual excuse is “I have to work so that I can pay the bills, and provide, but one day I’ll retire to a new lifestyle.” You are still waiting in the Starbucks line, and you begin to envision the warm beach of the vacation you so wish to take. It is theafternoon, and the sun is glowing as the delicious sea blown air enters your body. You take a moment to sigh as you embrace this beautiful moment. You know that tomorrow, all that is on the agenda is to swim, eat delicate food, and soak up the sun.
  Just at that moment your heart feels as if it has skipped a beat. It feels as if your chest is becoming tight,and your left side burns like ice. You drop to the floor as everything becomes fuzzy, and you see dozens a people gathering around you. The feeling isunlike anything you’ve felt before. Until it goes black.
  You wake upunknowing of where you are. Was it adream? No, you have just survived a transient ischemic attack (TIA), and this the doctor informs you, was a stroke. You are lucky to have had an ex-medic near by who knew just how to save your life until help arrived. Your life, and all that encompasses it, finally hits you. Finally, the hustle, bustle, and “no-time” for anything, but work, has caught up.”

  Now take a moment, and embrace this scenario because it happens to thousands of people every year. We live in a society, a place, where we can catch a taxi in under 4 seconds, and eat a meal without notice, in 3minutes. We are concerned with one thing, and one thing only …do it better than the next person. Through all of this we forget to take care of the most important thing, ourselves.
  If we do not take time to keep ourselves as I like to call it “mentally sound” then we are unable to perform in the way our lifestyle demands. Can you imagine how much easier it would beto wake up each morning if we took time to organize our nightly tasks in a way so that we were able to get at least eight hours of sleep. One may laugh at the thought of ever seeing eight hours of sleep, but we shouldn’t. This is the one and only time our bodies refuel itself. Our bodies literally repairs damaged done throughout the day, complete digestion for the meals eaten that day, create new cells to keep us going for tomorrow, and even reset our brains to “full.” If your Blackberry cellular phone had one bar of batterylife left, would you race to charge it or would you let it die, and tell it “Maybe I’ll charge you a little today, and little tomorrow.” No, you would not. In fact, I can imagine how many of us carry a phone charger compatible with our cars, laptops, and home adaptor. We fear the thought of losing life to our cell phone, and now is the time to start fearing losing the life to our bodies.
  You will never enjoy the money you earn without taking time for yourself to be mentally sound. Whether it is setting aside time to take a hot bath, meditating for as little as 5 minutes, working on a hobby car, making a cup of tea, reading a funny joke, going for a massage, or anything else that brings you peace of mind, you must do it. Being mentally sound will help you to embrace all that you have created, and it will fuel you to obtain any goal. Thank you for joining us.

Warmly,
