It’s no use working your butt off every day to get the perfect body if you don't devote the same attention to your mind too. Here’s everything you need to know about how meditation can take your fitness game to the next level.
It’s been a challenging year with lots of change, which has impacted our daily lives and health routines. Now with winter fast approaching, we are going to be faced with even more restrictions: cold weather and staying indoors. The colder weather deters a lot of people from staying active. Changes that happen during this time of year affect our mood, weight, and energy. It’s best to be aware of these changes and work with our bodies and minds to counteract the negative changes.
We really had to pivot this year, didn’t we? After seven months into a global pandemic, we have had to revisit what health means to each of us and our families.
We’ve had to shift the way we live our lives in every way.
less socializing and interaction with people
no more gym time
no more commutes to work
no more going out on Fridays
canceled events, weddings, birthdays
But we did it. Some of us went home. Some of us made more phone calls. Some of us took the time to get to know ourselves again. But you know what we all have in common? All of us had to take our health into our own hands and work with what we had available to us. We took responsibility for our own mind and body.
IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A GYM-LEVEL BURN IN YOUR ABS WHICH YOU CAN ACHIEVE AT HOME, LOOK NO FURTHER THAN THE NW METHOD!
Your core is home to the third chakra, called the Solar Plexus. It works to connect your upper body and lower body. When I created the NW Method, the waist was and is always an issue for many of my clients. That is why during a NW workout, your core is constantly being challenged in each section. Your core is the middle ground between connecting your upper and lower body. Working this area is key to keeping the flow of your chakras open since it is serving as the connector for your lower and higher chakras. NW Method strengthens the core and back, helping to strengthen the foundation of our mind, body and soul.
The impact of our bodies’ movement needs to work WITH our bodies, not against them. Each activity found in an #NW Method workout is carefully crafted, chosen, and positioned for maximum results. The low-intensity movements allow your bones, joints, muscles, tissues, and organs to be protected. LISS is a cardiovascular exercise method in which you do an aerobic activity at a low to moderate intensity for a continuous, often extended period. The NWMethod movements are designed to use more that one body part at a time, increasing the caloric burn and forcing the brain to work with the body to complete the move. The increased heart rate burns calories throughout the entire workout because the pattern of movements must be completed in the allotted time. LISS cardio workouts are the most effective for fat burn because it forces the body to use stored fat as energy.
