The story of Qu Ailing and yoga
Motivation for learning yoga
When living in the United States, Ai Ling, who has been working out in the gym, has been exposed to aerobic exercise, running, etc. When it comes to yoga, she thinks it is something that is so slow that it makes people fall asleep. She also has doubts about yoga. attitude, what effect can an exercise that does not seem to sweat achieve?
Five years ago, because she was hosting a travel program, she went to Nepal to interview a yoga master. She got a few simple movements taught by the yoga master. Originally, due to the fatigue of the long journey, all her tight muscles were relieved. At that time, Ai Ling had to admire the wisdom of ancient culture, and she came up with the idea of practicing yoga.
The changes brought about by yoga, you will think that artists are late birds! Judging from Ailing's busy work, she does have legitimate reasons to sleep until noon before getting up, but she likes to get up early because in the fresh morning air, through yoga, every day starts with an intimate conversation with her body. Through yoga meditation and breathing breathing, she deeply feels that yoga is not just a sport, but also a philosophy of life.
After practicing yoga, I discovered that some strenuous exercises such as boxing, running, weight training, etc. can cause muscle development and may not be necessary for women. However, the seemingly gentle yoga made Ai Ling, who was in formal class for the first time, unable to endure it. Because during yoga practice, the coordination of breathing and movements is very important. Ai Ling recalled that she was panting and following the teacher's movements. After a class, she was sweating profusely. After taking her third class, she gradually became accustomed to it and felt the wonderful effect yoga had on her body. In the past, due to hosting a program, there were often pressure from time lag, diet and time travel, which caused poor bowel movements in the long run. However, due to practicing yoga, gastrointestinal peristalsis was increased, and it was necessary to take lactic acid bacteria prescribed by a doctor for many years to solve the problem. The troubling chronic disease was cured without medicine. And through yoga movements, you can discover the discomfort on your body, because some parts of the body that do not move much may not notice the discomfort, and in every full-body yoga movement, the body will faithfully reflect the situation to you. This is how Ai Ling once discovered her throat problem.
Yoga sculpture curve women's pursuit of perfection is a lifelong homework. Even the thinnest woman will find that there is so much more flesh on her body, especially her flat abdomen. After sitting down, her stomach will be troubled. Small flaws, even Ai Ling, who has always had a habit of exercising, cannot escape such a fate. However, after practicing yoga, she found that the entire lines of her body seemed to have been sculpted again and became stronger, and her body fat also dropped significantly. Many of the "small swimming rings" that originally made people mind were also missing.
Environmental protection in the body."Environmental protection in the body" is to make a three-day dietary adjustment once a month. During these three days, drink 2500cc of water every day and avoid meat food, but you can enjoy all kinds of fruits and vegetables. Eat an apple every day. Try to boil, steam, etc. the food you eat, and reject excessive seasoning. During these three days, you must also reject the temptation of sweets, let your stomach rest completely, and reject the stimulation of greasy and strong flavors.
Ai Ling also feels that a "environmentally friendly" diet not only makes her body stronger, but also makes her more mentally calm. Her whole body "lights up", so she has been practicing this diet for more than half a year. Since practicing yoga for more than two years, Ai Ling has gradually paid more attention to the quality of her diet. She does not require or hopes that she can eat more delicately. Instead, she eliminates unnecessary seasonings and cooking methods to taste the original flavor of the food. The focus is on the freshness of the food.
Coupled with the physical sensory effects of practicing yoga, Ailing feels refreshed. Not only does she feel lighter in her body, but she can also experience the feeling of waste being expelled from her body! So now you can also start planning your own "Internal Environmental Protection Day". (Internship Editor: Li Bao)
