Relax. Such an easy word yet so hard for so many people. We as a society today are so stuck in the GO GO GO mind set that we forget to rest and take care of ourselves. This can (and does) cause so many issues in our minds and bodies. When something as simple as breathing could work wonders for our health, why don't we utilize it? The thought behind this is simple. We have our two states in our body.
1. Fight or Flight- sadly this is where too many of us live.
2. Rest and Digest- Where we should be the majority of the time
Now, when we are in this Fight or Flight state several changes happen in our body. Our breathing rate increases to send oxygen to our limbs to get ready to bolt, blood flow increases to these areas and away from our organs of digestion effectively shutting it down, and epinephrine is released to shut down our pain response. This all sounds pretty mild right? Well not when we are spending a lot of time here. Our body can't tell the difference between being chased by a bear and being on time for work. So our stress response immediately kicks in and sends us into Fight/Flight. Pretty hard to RELAX! Now this can cause huge health problems for us as our immune system takes a big hit. When our immune system is compromised we can't fight off disease and infection like we should causing us to be open to any number of illness.
Now this is where breathing comes in. When you are running from a bear, are you going to stop and take a nice deep breath? No Way! If you are fighting off a would be attacker are you going to stop and enjoy the fresh air? I Hope Not! Breathing deeply helps our body know that life is good. Breathing deeply is simple easy and free! You can't leave your body at home. Simply breathing increases oxygen in the blood, improves digestion (which is where a lot of your immune system lives), and helps you RELAX! So be healthy and start breathing. Become aware of what you are feeling and take control of your body. (unless of course you ARE being chased by a bear).

Believe in Success!
Hey There Everyone! I am going to tell you how I came to BELIEVE in myself and paved the way to SUCCESS! Now a little background info for you. I am a 27 year old Mom, Wife, and Student. Now ever since my first son was born I have given everything I had to be a stay at home mom. After the first year I felt so down on myself that I was in tears almost every night. I felt like I wasn't contributing anything to my family. I decided to go back to work. I started working in an assisted living facility and I LOVED IT! Unfortunately my pocket book didn't. Between worrying about child care and gas money, I ended up deciding that it wasn't worth it to commute to this job. Before I put in my notice, I ended up getting hurt. So now not only was I not working but I was hobbling around on a bad knee and trying to keep up with a 2 year old. Now let's fast-forward a few years, I am a stay-at-home mom of two boys, my Husband is working himself into an early grave to try and keep up with everything, and once again I am spiraling. I finally made the decision after a series of events, to go to school. This was my first step in BELIEVING IN MYSELF! So I am now in school, but this isn't helping my finances at all. I am driving an hour one way to get to class three days a week. In the meantime I am watching a dear friend start to make a boatload of money online, from home, with her kids. After weeks of seeing this, I finally caved and made her tell me how she was doing it. She told me about ZNZ. I was skeptical and asked her how she had managed to make as much as she had by advertising ZNZ while her kids were napping. Her response was simple " I BELIEVED IN SUCCESS". Now I was hooked. It sounded so insane that it just might work. I have been in the boat ever since. I know make as much money as my Hubby, working less hours and still attending school and being at home with my kids. Life has been wonderful for all of us. Now I know that there is a fear of work at home scams, I understand completely! I am still afraid of them and won't go anywhere near them! But ZNZ is the real deal. I have been so blessed to have found such an amazing opportunity. I want to help anyone who is interested accomplish the SAME SUCCESS! After being with such an amazing company I now BELIEVE IN SUCCESS! I want you to have the same satisfaction. If you are interested in changing your life, the time is now.... today ..... if you put it off you will always wonder what could have been. I am offering a $20 sign on for anyone who mentions this blog and finishes their ZNZ one, Two, and Big Cash steps. It is that simple. The money I am offering will cover the start up. I am not here to scam anyone, I am here to help people BELIEVE IN THEMSELVES! YOU CAN BE SUCCESSFUL AT HOME! So really, It is a no-brainer. If you are ready follow the link below to get started. If you aren't than I'm sorry for you. I hope you get everything you are looking for.
