Long screen days change the mirrors of your soul for the worse.

You lose the harmony of your eye muscles and the quality of their movements.

Train them daily for balance and focus
Headaches and neck tension after Zoom meetings are abnormal.

All the brainpower needed to supply our jaws and faces leaves a trail of tension along its passage.

This pressure can build up in excess, wreak havoc on your joints and muscles, then lead to pain and dysfunction.

Many are unaware they hold so much stress there.

Relieve daily. Image

The fine muscles of the face fill our words with life.

They are interwoven to do complex movements that mirror your thoughts as you express yourself.

The greatest Renaissance artists studied how these muscles worked together to better express their subject's emotional state.
These pictures show the many different muscles that light up to produce a specific expression.

Sleep is vital for the growth of a child, and night time disorders now affect nearly half of them.

You'll be shocked to find out how fast the tide can turn.

This thread presents what happened after 115 5th-grade students did breathing exercises twice a week for 3 months. Image
1175 3rd and 5th grade children from two Northern California school districts followed a modified PE curriculum including:

- Paced breathing
- Yoga and mindfulness practices
- Movement and Posture education

115 of them participated in a sleep study at the same time. ImageImage
The results after two years were exactly what you'd expect from such a protocol:

- 74 minutes of sleep added every night on average
- Deeper sleep
- Better stress awareness - knowing when and what was the source.
- Noticeable improvements after only 3 months
- More= better Image

My city Montreal hosted some of the CIA’s mind control camps 60 years ago.

They took children with psychiatric symptoms and fried their brains to a crisp with LSD, daily electro shocks, and sensory deprivation

Who knows what else.

Approved and encouraged by the government.
Some of the victims and their families are still alive today.

Chronic migraines or fatigue? Hyperactivity?

Bed wetting?

Your family member would have been eligible for the legal torture promoted by healthcare professionals and lobbied bureaucrats.

If you need a reason to exercise today, do it for the 100,000 miles of blood vessels in your body.

Let your life force flow from your brain to your toes and feed all your muscles.

You’ll feel a surge of energy and improved thinking for the rest of your day.
Vasodilation - the widening of your blood vessels by the relaxation of their muscular walls.

There's a type of sleep disorder where people go to bed with more energy than they've had all day.

Your mind starts to race when you lie down, even if your body is drained.

The spinning lasts late into the night. Your brain weighs 2 tons the next morning.

Tired and wired. Image
Your inner clocks are reversed.

The shot of energy meant to awaken you from your slumber occurs at night instead.

And your morning feels like the end of a long day.

Make sleep your priority if that's the case.

Tailor your workout/nutrition/habit decisions accordingly. Image
Here is a quick guide to set your inner clocks back in order:

1- Morning weightlifting to spike your awakening hormone cortisol and boost your testosterone.

2- Avoid inflammatory foods and blue lights as much as possible.

3- Night routine to shut yourself down manually.
