Deprivation
of Rest & Relaxation May Contribute to
Weight Gain
Busy,
busy bees - it's the motto of the Modern Day World.
Progress equals success - success equals money.
It may also equal weight gain. How so? To answer,
we must first ask a question.
"When
is the last time that you took time out to simply
relax from the everyday world?"
Not
a vacation to the in-law's house, not a rushed holiday
spent entertaining friends and family - and
not just a few days away from work to get those
vital necessities accomplished, rather a true time
out - time out to chill and relax. It's the most
overlooked aspect related to weight issues and it's
as necessary to the body as a healthy diet paired
with moderate exercise. Because physical results
are noticed with the naked eye, the big 'D' (diet)
and the big 'E' (exercise) overwhelm rest and relaxation.
Although
there has been a bit of bustling about in the health
world regarding a connection between weight gain
and inadequate sleep, we're referring to something
totally different. Relaxation. In fact, just saying
that word sets a feeling of calm washing over us.
But relaxation is swiftly becoming a lost and forgotten
element in our Modern Day World. Just compare the
common consensus of 'relaxation' these days to the
Old World. Whereas knitting, reading a book, wildlife
viewing, moongazing, stargazing, pleasant conversation
and high tea were considered necessities of life
in the Old World, in Today's World relaxation is
generally construed as playing video games, golf
or other sports, attending entertaining functions -
and so forth. However, these all fall into the category
of 'Activities' rather than in the category of 'Relaxation'
as the body is put into motion and requires use
of skill.
True
relaxation allows us to get in touch with our inner
self. We need not even think. True relaxation allows
the mind to rest while the body is awake. True relaxation
regenerates not only the mind, but also the
body and the spirit. And when we don't experience
true relaxation, our bodies seek comfort in other
forms - such as in food. Deprivation of one vital
element contributes to our bodies seeking methods
of fixing the issue, and more often than not, comfort
foods fill the bill.
If
it has been forever and a day since you've took
time to relax - to clear your mind and simply bathe
in the spirits of life that live within, taking
time out may not only boost productivity in your
everyday life, it may also boost weight loss results.
