Harmonious Love in a Relationship part 5

When making decisions for our self and for the relationship, ask,

which choice will bring vital health?

Does working 60 hrs a week improve or harm the relationship? Does sarcasm or ridicule bring vitality or burn out? What effect will kindness and compassion have on your relationship?

Is my decision motivated by Fear or Love?

If it is by fear, how can that fear point out what you value and be turned into inspiration? If the decision is motivated by love a lasting relationship (of some kind) will result.

Subconscious Health

Many of our life patterns that lead to pain and fear are the result of subconscious patterns etched into the foundation (genetic karmic, social, cultural) of our body mind spirit that motivate us to sabotage our conscious wishes for healthy relationships.

BIG question -How do we alter or transform patterns that we are in the dark about? Again it all comes back to our health condition. All health problems are caused by living a life predominated by too many extremes.

High on alcohol or drugs-> hangover Burnout
Excess activity-> fatigue, pains
Too little sleep-> neurological disorders
Too many saturated fats-> heart attack
Confined-> Abandoned
Contracted->Expanded
Too yang-> Too yin

Lets look at how we can affect our subconscious mind through moderating our lifestyle- creating a BALANCE that nourishes our health condition

Physical Recommendations:

Sleep-Are you creating extremes in your sleeping patterns? Do you get enough sleep and do you sleep deeply? What can you do balance your sleep and activity levels?

Sleep is the time reserved for our subconscious mind to work out the "stuff" that keeps us from feeling our natural vital state. Avoid eating before sleep, clear your bedroom space, and impregnate your mind with affirmations and prayers before sleep. Conceive your supreme destiny. E.G: (can be done as you are falling asleep)

With every breath I feel the Universal Life Force entering my body. I breathe and feel every cell of my body being nourished and cleansed. I empty my mind of thoughts - As thoughts come I breathe them away and instead focus on these words:

The power of healthy change lies within me and I am energized by all that is around me
My sub conscious self continues to move my body mind spirit to make decisions and actions that empower me by improving my health... vital health of body mind spirit
With every breath I am becoming healthier
My sub conscious self continues to move my body mind spirit to make decisions and actions that empower me by improving my health... vital health of body mind spirit
With every breath I am becoming healthier

Breath- O2 is our no 1 life essential nutrient and Co2 is our no 1 toxic metabolic by -product. Efficient breathing nourishes and cleanses our blood. Extreme ups and downs in our breathing patterns also affects the heart rate, blood pressure and are the root of tension, mood swings and anxiety. Slowing our breath through quiet deep diaphragmic breathing improves the condition of our lungs. When our lungs are clear our brain is clear and instead of anal lies ing, creative solutions intuitively surface. Exercise and spend more time in nature away from polluted cities. Got a relationship problem? Go somewhere where the air is clean, feel the earth under your feet, jump in the lake, walk in the trees, eat a meal made over a fire and you will be surprised at the clarity you experience. Internal energy exercises like yoga, tai chi and chi kung clear the brain and strengthen the internal body as well as the outer framework.

Food- Extreme eating patterns are the next factor in creating vital health. Do you eat enough vegetables? How often do you eat junk food? sugar? Choosing organic wholesome foods over junk food that tax the body will allow us to use our energy for making healthy decisions instead of eliminating chemicals hormones and antibiotics. Better yet, grow your own food in a garden or planters on your balcony- planting seeds yourself and taking care of your own foods permeates the plants with a complementary energy customized to heal your body.
