Introduction:

  • Mind-body harmony is discussed as the fourth pillar to Live Long and Well (along with exercise, nutrition, sleep, exposure to heat/cold, social relationships).
  • Mind-body activities encompass meditation, controlled breathing exercises, yoga, and spending time in nature.

Part 1: The Connection Between the Mind and the Body:

  • The mind influences bodily functions such as movement, heart rate, and breathing.
  • Conversely, the body communicates with the mind, signaling when to breathe, sensing pain, and indicating hunger.
  • Chronic stress can disrupt the mind-body connection, leading to health issues.

Part 2: Impact of Mind-Body Imbalance on Health:

Part 3: Improving Mind-Body Harmony:

Where do we go from here?
As always, it is important to determine whether these activities will help you!

  • Start with a baseline assessment of your mood or blood pressure, or general wellbeing.
  • Then select a mind-body activity to begin/test
  • After several weeks, assess the same baseline elements--see if you have made progress in that area.
