Many computer users around the world face the problem of back pain. Having your back against the wall usually means you’re in trouble. But for certain yoga positions, having your back firmly against a wall will aid health.In Hatha Yoga, the practitioner forms what Swami Gitananda calls body geometry–triangles, straight lines, circles and parallel lines. When you do a posture, always stretch your body to its utmost limit and then hold it there for a slow count of 10, gradually building up the time, until each posture can be maintained for 30 seconds. Holding a posture is essential to yoga because it gives the body a chance to settle into the stretch and loosen up. Then each time you stretch it will be just that little bit farther. Many of the sideways, or lateral, stretches in Hatha Yoga require that the body face forward, with hips level and back and spine tilting neither forward nor back. Beginners tend to lean forward to increase the stretch. But leaning forward is wrong and will actually detract from benefits and possibly cause harm. To perform these stretches properly, make sure to keep your spine firmly against a wall. The wall acts as a prop. Even those who have practiced yoga may find that they cannot bend as far as they thought they could when they do the postures properly. The extra time spent in forming careful postures will pay off: Your body will gain excellent flexibility and strength.

For thousands of years, yoga has helped countless people achieve physical and spiritual well-being through its unique exercise system that stretches and strengthens the body. Now promoters say it can also make you look younger.

That may be good news to those who shun Botox and other expensive cosmetic procedures. The question is: does it work?

Ask Annelise Hagen, a yoga instructor in Manhattan’s wealthy Upper East Side who teaches facial exercises, and she’ll say it does. Hagen is the author of “The Yoga Face: Eliminate Wrinkles with the Ultimate Natural Facelift.” She believes a yoga facial can improve your appearance since it improves the circulation of weak and flabby facial muscles.

“The face carries a great deal of tension and energy. As a primary mode of expression, the face may form into hundreds of poses a day reflecting anger, happiness, sorrow, or a range of other emotions. Most individuals have at least a few tense muscles in the face which could benefit from facial exercises designed to loosen and free the muscles,” said S.E. Smith in WiseGeek.com.

“It uses the same principles of exercise you would use for any other parts of your body. Facial muscles also become more toned, so it is a natural way of getting a lift,” Hagen added.

Hagen claims a yoga facial can help people find inner and outer beauty and her students seem to agree as they go through the exercises. In one called “The Lion”, the mouth and eyes are opened as wide as possible with the tongue sticking out. This supposedly improves circulation and releases tension.

In “Satchmo”, the cheeks are blown out like a saxophone player while in “Marilyn” you blow kisses for full and firm lips. These exercises may be combined with a gentle facial massage.

“Running through all of the exercises which comprise a yoga facial takes approximately 15 minutes, and according to advocates should be done once a day. Long term effects are supposed to include a reduction in tension, an increase in circulation, and less tension related headaches. A yoga facial will also tone and improve the general condition of the skin. In combination with a regular yoga practice, it could bring balance and focus to your life, especially if you rarely take time to take care of your body,” Smith said.

However, not everyone is convinced of their worth. Dermatologists said the face already gets enough exercise from smiling, eating, and talking so there’s no need to add to this burden. Furthermore, some facial exercises can cause wrinkles since they force the face into unnatural expressions.

For the most important part of the breathing is actually not that difficult. Simply picture a big circle running down from the crown of your head to the soles of your feet. Stand at attention with your head relaxed, and looking straight forward. Your feet should be shoulder length apart with your hands relaxed and pointing palm down at your sides. Slowly raise your hands while slooooooowly breathing in, continue breathing in picturing a circle starting at your hands and continuing down over your head towards your feet. When your hands reach the top of your head, start to exhale slowly lowering your hands at the same time. You should be able to make a 20 count both in and out. Start at 10 if you cannot. Work your way up to 20.

Do 10 repetitions 3 times a day. Morning, noon, and night before bed. You will start feeling more energy in just a week.

The next exercise we will do is another secret oriental technique called the 8 Section Brocade. This exercise is taught in a system of healing called Qi Gong by the Chinese. This incorporates the special deep breathing I taught you in the first section and adds 8 special movements that cleanse and detoxify all 8 major sections of your body, purifying and healing them. The Chinese believe that everything in your body is controlled by a central point called the furnace. It resides in a spot about 3 inches directly below your navel.

8 SECTION BROCADE

The 8 section Brocade is also called the silk thread. These exercises are healing in nature and help to detoxify and cleanse the body. You should do the exercises at least 3 to 4 times a day to get the maximum benefit. You will start feeling better within a week. After a month, even people who are virtual couch potatoes will be moving fluidly and easily, even with most forms of mild arthritis.

The main thing to remember is to RELAX and take it easy. Don’t expect to do everything picture perfect from step one. Remember the tortoise won the race, not the hare. If you can only do 10 reps, do 10 reps. If 5, then do 5. It isn’t a contest.

Just compete against yourself. Add one rep per day.

You need to practice the breathing above until it becomes second nature. Practice makes perfect! The 8 Section Brocade comes from an art called Qi’ Gong.

To understand Qi Gong, we will go into a little bit of history, without going into too much detail. The martial arts originally started with an Indian monk who travelled to China about 4,000 years ago, and taught his system of martial arts to the Buddhist monks at the Shaolin temple. Many traditional Chinese Medical arts started thereafter, and were combined with the martial arts into elaborate and detailed systems of training, weapons, and remedies.

Yoga and tai chi and Qi Gong are very similar, and that is no surprise. After many centuries, these practices became an essential part of the fabric of Chinese society and all of the people from the young to the very old practiced these arts for health, to prevent and cure diseases, to calm the spirit, and for longevity, and virility.

Qi Gong or Dao-yin, has obscure origins, but many ancient manuals of military drills and exercises depict similar movements that date back over 2,000 years. It is interesting that in 1973, archeologists in China found the tomb of king Ma who lived during the Western Han Dynasty dated 206 BC – 24 AD. In the tomb, they found scrolls depicting 44 people in various poses, or Dao-yin diagram, with the name of an animal or the name of a disease that the posture may help cure. Some of the postures are very close to those in the Eight Section Brocade.

Hua T’o who lived circa 110-207 CE is one of the most famous physicians of the Han Dynasty. In the History of the Later Han, Hua T’o wrote:

“Man’s body must have exercise, but it should never be done to the point of exhaustion. By moving about briskly, digestion is improved, the blood vessels are opened, and illnesses are prevented. It is like a used doorstep which never rots. As far as Tao Yin ( bending and stretching exercises) is concerned, we have the bear’s neck, the crane’s twist, and swaying the waist, and moving the joints to promote long life. Now I have created the art called the Frolics of the Five Animals, the Tiger, the Deer, the Bear, the Monkey, and the Crane. It eliminates sickness, benefits the legs, and is a form of Tao Yin. If you feel out of sorts, just practice one of my Frolics. A gentle sweat will exude, the complexion will become rosy; the body will feel light and you will want to eat.” – From: Drawing Silk: A Training Manual for T’ ai Chi, p. 6

Bodhidharma, the great Founder of the Shaolin temple styles, taught a set of 18 exercise know as the 18 hands of the Lohan. This Shaolin Lohan Qi Gong ( the art of the breath of the enlightened ones), ” is an internal set of exercises for cultivating the “three treasures ” of qi or chi(vital energy), jing(essence), and shen(spirit)”, according to Howard Choy. Sifu or Master Wong Kiew-Kit says that “the first eight Lohan Hands are the same as the eight exercises in a famous set of chi kung (or Qi Gong) exercises called the Eight Pieces of Brocade.”

There are various versions, both seated and standing, of the 18 Lohan Qi Gong movements. Some of the 18 Lohan have up to 4 levels and scores of movement forms. The only remaining full form of the 18 Lohan Qi Gong remains in the style of Kung Fu known as Choy Li Fut, which I was taught starting at age 10, by my Sifu, Master Ting Fong Wong, a student of the famous Leong Tin Chee, along with Hung Gar, and Toy Gar styles.

I obtained a 6th degree Black Belt from my Sifu, and bested the other instructors running the school on Great Arrow in Buffalo, NY which my brother, Kevin and I ran with Master Wong. Each degree in our style, demanded 3 degrees which means 18 levels once Black Belt had been attained. In China stripes are sewn on the sleeves of your uniform. Belts are not worn.

We were not taught T’ai Chi until we had attained Brown or one Belt level below Black. The same with weapons training. That is because the internal style is much more deadly and advanced than the hard or external style. A violent, undisciplined person should never be taught. They will just victimize others and disgrace their teacher.

I have trained in Judo, jui-jitsu, and Tae-Kwon Do. Also, 7 Stars Praying Mantis Kung Fu. I have recently started training under a Master of Sun style Tai Chi and Qi Gong. I have also contacted the last living GrandMaster or keeper of the Style who decended from the founder of Choy Li Fut, and am trying to find out about continuing my training in that style. So you can see, I am more than qualified to teach you these exercises.

Some instructors tell you to do the exercises at a moderate pace, others very slowly. Many say that you will only really see benefits after 90 days. I think they are correct that the greatest benefit is seen about starting then, but I think you will notice a difference definitely within a week, and dramatically, after a month. Here we go!

1. Pressing the Heavens with Two Hands

Use the Wu Ji position, and step out to the left. Shoulder width apart. Keep your knees slightly bent , back straight, butt in. Slowly and gently, raise your hands to your waist. Your palms should face upward and your fingers loosely together. The fingers of each hand should point towards each other, and be kept 2 to 4 inches apart. Raise both hands up until you reach your forehead. Inhale as you raise your arms. Relax your abdomen. When you reach your forehead, turn your hands so that your palms face outward. Press your arms upward and outwards in front of your body. Don’t press the arms straight up. Keep your wrists bent, and point your fingers toward each other. Keep inhaling while relaxing your abdomen. Gently stretch the whole body upward as your hands move upward above your head. Move up onto your toes slightly as your arms reach their maximum height. Imagine a circle from your Dan Tien or center of your being(3 inches below and in from your navel), up the middle of your body, and down over the top of your head, and ending at the soles of your feet. Breathe very, very slowly. Use a count of 20, if you can.

Just count the first time or so. Then you will know how to breathe without distraction. Once you hit the maximum height start lowering your hands back down to your side turning them palms outward and slowly exhaling to a count of twenty. Pretend you are breathing down through the soles of your feet.

Repeat Pressing the Sky 6 to 12 times. Breathe as above.

Return to the Wu Ji or empty stance, and breathe naturally a few times to cleanse the air, and normalize your breathing.

You can do the movements seated, standing, or walking and some teachers tell you to interlace the fingers and press straight up. Doing the Qi Gong outdoors in nice weather is always pleasant and advisable.

This exercise helps the Triple burner or the heart, lungs, and stomach, and improves the heart, lungs, stomach, spleen, and liver. All the upper trunk organs are stimulated. Chinese Medicine classes the organs differently than our anatomy. You can look up Chinese Medicine in Google and read to understand the difference.

2. DRAWING THE BOW

Begin in the starting “Wu Ji” Position. Lift up your left foot and step out to the side into a horse stance. Both feet should be facing forward and flat on the floor. The feet should be exactly shoulder width apart and and you should bend your knees. Your back should be straight and your head up and face forward.

Cross your arms your left over your right. Look to the left and pretend you are aiming and pulling the strings of a bow and letting go and releasing the arrow towards a target. As you draw the bow, inhale deeply and slowly. Aim the bow, and release the fingers of the right hand to let the arrow go. As you release the arrow, start to exhale slowly. Relax. Do the movement 5x to the left and then 5x to the right. Breathe slowly and rhythmically, concentrating on each movement so as to perform it correctly. Return to the resting position in between each movement.

As with all the movements, they can be done seated, standing, or walking.

You can increase the number of repetitions to 12 to each side or more if you wish.

This exercise exercise primarily the lungs and the kidneys while the horse stance tones the legs, waist, and back. The mind is helped by the oxygenation.

3. SEPARATING HEAVEN AND EARTH

Lift up and step with your left foot out to the side until you are in a comfortable horse stance with your feet facing forwards and about shoulder width apart. Your arms should be relaxed at your sides with your hands on your thighs. The right hand lifts up along your side and the palm faces downward. The left hand moves to the center of the waist, palm facing upwards. Inhale slowly and deeply as you turn your left hand over so that your palm faces your chest. Bring your left arm up so that your hand moves up the middle of your chest. Slowly lift your right hand to your waist, palm facing downwards. Inhale slowly through your nose. When your left hand reaches eye level, turn your left palm outwards. Start exhaling through your mouth. Press your left arm up at the same time and forward as far as possible, palm facing up. At the same time, press your right arm down and just a little ways back as far as you can, with your palm facing down. Watch your left hand with your eyes while keeping your head facing forward. Start inhaling as you move your left hand in a circular motion out and down. Follow the left hand with your eyes as it moves down. At the same time, while inhaling and moving your left arm out and down, bring your right arm up and out in a circular motion. Bring your right hand to your eye level, palm facing upwards. Bring your left hand to your waist level, palm facing down. As you slowly exhale, press your right arm upward and forward as far as you can, palm facing upwards. At the same time, press your left arm down and slightly back as far as you can, palm facing downwards. Don’t bend your neck to look at your hand. Look at your right hand. Repeat the movements, alternating from side to side, for 6 to 12 repetitions each side. Exhale as your press up and out, inhale as your arms and hands circle out and down.

Move your left foot back so you are resting in the wuji stance.

Again, you can perform the movements while you are seated, walking, or standing.

Most practitioners of Traditional Chinese Medicine, believe that this exercise helps heal the spleen and the stomach.

4. THE WISE OWL GAZES BACKWARD

Lift and step with your left foot and place your feet at a shoulder’s width apart. Look straight ahead. Your hands should be at your hips with your palms facing down. Press down with palms. Stand up straight and relax. Lift your head up, with your chin tucked in slightly. Hips and butt are tucked in. Don’t move your shoulders during the movement. Inhale slowly and deeply. Slowly and gently turn your head to the left side. Look behind you as far as you can. Exhale slowly and deeply as you look behind you. After you have completely exhaled, start to return your head slowly and gently to the front position. Look straight ahead. Then turn your head slowly and gently back towards the right side. Continue to slowly inhale as you turn your body to the right and look behind you as far as you can exhale slowly as you look behind you. After you have completely exhaled, start to return your head slowly and gently, to the front. Look straight ahead. Repeat the movement gazing to the front, left rear, and right rear a total of 8 times each side.

Pretend you are an owl, turning his head from side to side. Move your left foot back to a wuji stance.

Breath easily. Relax. Move slowly. Don’t strain yourself and only move back as far as you can comfortably. Remember, you can perform this movement sitting, walking, or standing.

This movement exercises the neck and eye muscles. Balance and brain are improved by the coordination practiced during the movements. Deep breathing oxegenates the body and kills toxic infections and viruses.

According to the Ancient Way to Keep Fit, written by Zong Wu and Li Mao , “Referring to the seven factors causing impairments by overstrain, viz., (1) overfeeding that impairs the spleen; (2) fury that causes adverse flow of Qi and impairs the liver; (3) forced overloading or prolonged sitting in damp places that injures the kidneys; (4) cold weather or drinking cold beverages that injures the lungs; (5) sorrow and anxiety that injure the heart; (6) wind and rain, cold and summer-heat that impair the constitution; and (7) great shock and intemperance that impair mentality.” p. 113-Regarding “Turn head to look back to allay five strains and seven impairments.”

5. PUNCHING WITH AN ANGRY GAZE

Step out with the left foot into a horse stance. Start as usual from a wuji stance. Look straight ahead and relax completely. Arms are at the waist and close your hands gently in a soft fist. Slide your right hand slowly forward along the body and when your hand leaves the waist, start turning your fist over slowly and deliberately and extend your arm until the arm is almost, but not quite completely extended. Your arm should be slightly bent and your fist flat forwards, with your thumb over your fingers and your fingers completely together and closed. Now, strike forward slowly with your left hand, turn over your fist as it leaves the body and slowly extend your arm, until your fist is almost completely extended. Leave your arm ever so slightly bent at the elbow. Do not tense your fist or strike hard. This is like tai chi. Slowly. Gently. Breath out as your fist extends out, and in as your fist returns to the body. Do the movement 8 times on each side.

Return to the wuji, resting stance.

This movement strengthens the muscles and improves the Qi, or Chi.

Again, this movement can be done walking, standing, or sitting.

6. BOUNCING ON THE TOES

Relax and assume the starting or wuji stance. Start the movement with your right foot forward and your right foot on your toes. Your arms should be at your hips, with your palms facing downwards. Press down with your palms. Bend your knees and move your torso down. Straighten your knees and move your torso up. Always keep the knees slightly bent. Raise your body slowly up and down.

Your back heel stays flat on the floor. This movement is exactly like what we called the “upper horse”. Others call it the “cat stance”. Stretch out your spine as you move up on your toes. Breathe in slowly as you move up on your toes, and exhale slowly as you return to the starting position. Do 8 repetitions on each side. Move slowly and don’t strain yourself. Imagine yourself on a sunny beach, or in a forest, on the seashore, move up and down like the tide and waves rolling in and out. Relax and hear the sound of the water. Or imagine you are below a beautiful waterfall, watching the water cascading down over the rocks. Use whatever imagery relaxes you. Some do up to 160 repetitions for an excellent whole body workout. Remember, the movements, like all the others, can be done sitting, walking or standing.

This movement helps the following muscles and parts of the body:

1. The calf muscles. To increase the workout, use dumbbells to really work the calf. Point your toes in, to work the outside of the calves, point your toes out to work the inside muscles of the calves. Finally, do the movement with your toes pointing straight ahead to work all sides of the muscles.

2. Again, the breathing helps to oxygenated the body and kills bacteria and viruses. Good for the heart and lungs. Great aerobic exercise.

This exercise helps to rid the body of disease and stimulates the immune system. The hips and lower back are also toned. The feet muscles are exercised and stretched. Leg muscles are strengthened, because one leg is worked more than the other. This exercise can be done either walking, sitting, or standing.

7. THE BIG BEAR TURNS FROM SIDE TO SIDE

Start this movement from the starting or wuji stance. Step out to the left into a horse stance. Your feet should be wider than shoulder width. Feet should be pointing forward or at a 45 degree angle. The knees should be bent as you squat down. The depth that you squat depends on your level of fitness. Try to squat lower with every repetition of this exercise. Rest your hands on the side of your thighs. Your elbows should be pointing out to the sides at a 90 degree angle from the direction that you are facing. If you are facing north, your right elbow should point to the east and your left elbow to the west.. Breathe slowly and deeply as you bend down exhale, and as you face to the sides inhale.

Face north. Keep your hands on your hips thoughout the exercise. Slowly turn your waist to the left until your chest is facing east. Your right elbow should be pointing noeth and you should have your head turned and looking north. Inhale slowly and deeply.

Slowly turn to the right as you bend forward to the front. Exhale as you move to the right side towards the west. When you are facing the middle, your head and shoulders should be at the lowest point bending forward. Turn your waist to the right and lift the upper torso. Slowly turn your waist to the right until your chest is facing west. As you turn to the right your left knee will bend more. Your left elbow should be pointing north, and you should have your head turned towards the north. Inhale slowly and deeply.

Repeat the movement, back and forth, from side to side, for 8 repetitions to each side. Get the feel of swinging from side to side. Keep the posture erect as you face east and west and bend the head and shoulders back. Hold the back and place your right palm on your back and and your left hand on your back palm side down on each hand.

This exercise helps heartburn. The horse stance works the thighs and legs. Bending and turning at the waist trims and tones the waist, hip, abdominal and lower back muscles. The upper back and triceps are tightened as you turn from side to side. The spine is gently stretched to help realign your body and relieve stiffness. Kidneys are strengthened, and Qi or chi are made vital and abundant.

8. TOUCHING THE TOES AND BENDING BACKWARDS

Start from the beginning or wuji stance. Step out to the left with your left fot bout 6 to 8 inches. Your stance should be comfortable. Inhale slowly and deeply and relax and push out with your abdomen as you inhale.

Bend slowly backward from the waist and have both of your hands extended out all the way over your head bend as far backwards as you can comfortably. Don’t fall. Then bend forward and exhale slowly as you reach towards your feet your fingertips should touch lightly at the bottom of the movement. Then clasp your hands 2 or 3 times together and release, while remaining in a bent forward position. Remember, inhale as you bend back at the beginning of the movement, and exhale as you bend forward and down. When you come back up to the starting position, start massaging your kidney areas on both sides of your back in semi circles for 30 seconds or so. This movement is called ” Rubbing the Court of the kidneys”.

Repeat the movement 8 times. Move slowly and carefully without jerking or bouncing up and down.

This movement can be done sitting or standing.

This movement strengthens the kidneys and waist.

You can move your hands to massage different pressure or Qi points or meridians on the body.

To end the set, perform the bouncing on the toes movement to end the exercise and close the Qi Gong set. You should feel relaxed and invigorated at th e completion of these exercises. This set is excellent for warming up and stretching for weight training or any other sport. It helps the body and blood flow increase and heals the muscles between sets of weight training or resistance exercises.

THE MOTHER, PONDICHERRY –“Never grumble. All sorts of forces enter you when you grumble and they pull you down. We find in others what is in us… If we always find mud around us, it proves that there is mud somewhere in us.”

THE MYSTERY PLAY –“God is in the details, after all. Or… perhaps, the details are in God.”

THE NATIONAL GEOGRAPHY –“A work in progress, the Earth still shakes with the forces of creation. Earthquakes occur when shifting pieces of the surface overcome friction at their edges and cause the ground to shudder — with sometimes disastrous results.”

THE NATIONAL GEOGRAPHY –“Seen from the safe distance of a satellite, it can be a thrilling spectacle. But as anyone caught in the middle of a hurricane knows, the place that poets call Mother Earth is not always such a gentle parent. Extreme weather events… are expressions of a living planet, still changing after billions of years of existence.”

Subhuti, those that do hold onto a timber, or plank, or other solid support will not drown in the water Happily unhindered, they may reach the shore, where they will stand safe and sound on firm ground. Similarly, Subhuti, a bodhisattva who is endowed with a full measure of faith and purity, of kindness and intentions, but without taking hold of the perfection of wisdom, can fall along the way Not reaching all-embracing knowledge, he remains only a disciple, or a pratyekabuddha.”

THE XIV DALAI LAMA –“We cannot learn real patience and tolerance from a guru or a friend. They can be practiced only when we come in contact with someone who creates unpleasant experiences. According to Shantideva, enemies are really good for us as we can learn a lot from them and build our inner strength.”

THE XTV DALAI LAMA –“Disregard for our natural inheritance has brought about the danger that now threatens the peace of the world…. Such destruction of the environment and life depending upon it is a result of, ignorance, greed and disregard for the richness of all living things. This disregard is gaming great influence.

THEODORE ROOSEVELT –“In doing your work in the great world, it is a safe plan to follow a rule I once heard on the football field: Don’t flinch, don’t fall; hit the line hard.”

THEODORE ROOSEVELT –“It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows I achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”

THICH NHAT HANH –‘Walking meditation is like eating. With each step, we nourish our body and our spirit. When we walk with anxiety and sorrow, it is a kind of junk food. The food of walking meditation should be of a higher quality. Just walk slowly and enjoy a banquet of peace.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“After you wake up, you probably open the curtains and look outside. You may even like to open the window and feel the cool morning air with the dew still on the grass. But is what you see really “outside”? In fact, it is your own mind. As the sun sends its rays I through the window, you are not just yourself. You are also the beautiful view from your window. You are the Dharmakaya.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“All of us have the power to change the situation if we care to practice mindful walking, mindful! breathing to encourage the energy of mindful- I ness and to practise looking deeply to understand. Because understanding when it comes, will liberate us. It will help us to get rid of our anger, our hate and so on. And love is something that can only be born on the ground of understanding. Prajna and karuna are words that point to the same reality Where there is understanding, prajna, there is love. Where there is true love, maitri and karuna, there already exists prajna. Where there is no understanding, there is no true love.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“All phenomena — the song of a bird, the warm rays of the sun, a cup of hot tea — are manifes- tations of the Dharmakaya. We, too, are of the same nature as these wonders of the universe.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“Dharmakaya literally means the’body’or kaya of the Buddha’s teachings and Dharma), the way of understanding and love.

THICH NHAT HANH –“Happiness is only possible with true love. True love has the power to heal and transform the situation around us and bring a deep meaning to our lives.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“If you look deeply into impermanence, you will do your best to make her happy right now. Aware of impermanence, you become positive, loving and wise. Impermanence is good news.

THICH NHAT HANH –“If you suffer, it is not because things are impermanent. It is because! you believe things are I permanent. When a flower dies, you don’t suffer much, because you understand that flowers are impermanent. But you cannot accept the impermanence of your beloved one, and you suffer deeply when she passes away.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“Keeping your body healthy is an expression of gratitude to the whole cosmos the trees, the clouds, everything.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“Meditation is not to escape from society, but to come back to ourselves and see what is going on.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“Nothing remains the same for two consecutive moments. The Buddha implored us not just to talk about impermanence, but to use it as an instrument to help us penetrate deeply into reality and obtain liberating insight. We may be tempted to say that because things are impermanent, there is suffering. But the Buddha encouraged us to look again. Without impermanence, life is not possible. How can we transform our suffering if things are not impermanent? How can the situation in the world improve? We need impermanence foil social justice and for hope.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“Opening the window, I look out onto the Dharmakaya. How wondrous is life! Attentive to each moment, my mind is clear like a calm river.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“People deal too much with the negative, with what is wrong…Why not try arid see positive things, to just touch those things and make them bloom?”

THICH NHAT HANH –“People today tend to take refuge in overwork so they can avoid confronting their inner turmoil.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle. But i think the real miracle is not to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth. Every day we are engaged in a miracle which we don’t even recognise: a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves, the .black, curious eyes of a child — our own two eyes. All is a miracle.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“That path is you. That is why it will never tire of waiting Whether it is covered with red dust, autumn leaves, or icy snow, come back to the path. You will be like the tree of life. Your leaves, trunk, branches, and the blossoms of your soul will be fresh and beautiful, once you enter the practice of Earth Touching.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“The empty path welcomes you, fragrant with grass and little flowers. Walk leisurely, peacefully. Your feet touch the earth deeply. Don’t let your thoughts carry you away. Come back to the path every moment.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“Water flows from high in the mountains Water runs deep in the Earth Miraculously, water comes to us, And sustains all life.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“When we come into contact with the other person, our thoughts an actions should express our mind of compassion even if that person says and does things that are not easy to accept. We practice in this way until we see clearly that our love is not contingent upon the other person being lovable.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“When we open the window and look out onto the Dharmakaya, we see that life is infinitely marvellous. At that very moment, we can vow to be awake all day long, realising joy, peace, freedom and harmony throughout our lives. When we do this, our mind becomes clear like a calm river.”

THICH NHAT HANH –“You are me, and I am you. Isn’t it obvious that we “inter-are”? You cultivate the flower in yourself, so that i will be beautiful. I transform the garbage in myself, so that you will not have to suffer I support you; you support me. I am in this world to offer you peace; you are in this world to bring me joy.”

THICH NHAT HANT –‘It is not by going out for a demonstration against nuclear missiles … but with our capacity of being peace that we can make peace.”

THOMAS A. EDISON –“Anything that won’t sell, I don’t want to invent.”

THOMAS A. EDISON –“Being busy does not always mean real work. The object of all work is production or accomplishment and to either of these ends there must be forethought, system, planning, intelligence, and honest purpose, as well as perspiration. Seeming to do is not doing.”

THOMAS A. EDISON –“Fail? I haven’t failed! I now know 3800 ways not to make an electric storage battery.”

THOMAS A. EDISON –“I have not failed. I have just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”

THOMAS MERTON –“And when the faculties are empty, then your whole being listens.

Fasting of the heart empties the faculties, frees you from limitations and from preoccupations.”

THOMAS MERTON –“At the centre of our being is a point of nothingness which is untouched by sin and by illusion, a point of pure truth, a point or spark which belongs entirely to God, which is never at our disposal, from which God disposes of our lives, which is inaccessible to the fantasies of our own mind, or the brutalities of our own will.”

Thus we must create and feel peace and joy in ourselves with no hesitation. When we have gained these benefits, we must share them with others, with the greatest joy.

Right this very second I’m in such a bad low depressive state that I have spent minutes off and on thinking about dying!! how nice it would be to get rid of this horrible dark crappy feeling and to get away from this state of mind. Thinking logically, all I want to do is curl up in my warm bed and sleep for ever! in other words die. This is how I feel right now, this day, this second, nice! and for some of you it will seem like I’m reading your mind where as for others I guess they wont have a clue what I’m talking about and will jump to the conclusion that I’m stupid or mad! yet I have a gift as such. Once you have this Bipolar disorder or mood disorder, you are able to understand many other people but sadly some people with never understand you, something I have experienced in my past.

Work is on my mind as once coming down I begin to hate what I do. The boss has no idea how to deal with me as a normal guy let alone having this to deal with. His fault? Well his wife has depression so yes you would think so but I cant hold my mental illness against him. I hate the words “mental illness” as its so umm mental!!  Not one person would raise an eyebrow at a guy with a broken leg or arm but say the magic words “mental illness” and lots of people get so worried and may even avoid you, yet I think I have more people skills and care for others than most! in my opinion.

I feel isolated and very very alone but in one way I need this as When your depression is bad you can’t face the world. I have had to go out for food as supplies were low, only to feel so bad while in a large food store that I left my trolley half full of food and walked out. Friends don’t really know what to do and I don’t want to afflict it on to them, but I so wish they could see the signs and not fall into saying all the wrong things to me that just winds me up and make me sink to an even further depth of crappy state.

Manic depression is a large issue for many people suffering with its conditions. Being depressed is bad enough and I mean real depression, not these people just saying they feel depressed as the rabbit has died!! There is no cause that the medical world can agree on other than it could be in the genes or a physical brain problem. There are trigger points that can bring this  on and these can be little things such as an argument with somebody or frustration. I last three years as a rule with an employer as after this time I get so frustrated with how things are done or not done or not being heard, that It starts my depression off. If you have an understanding employer! they could help, but sadly this is rare.

It does make me laugh and make me some what angry when I hear the words “I’m so depressed” when a person has just lost a £10 bet or broken a nail or has had a large bill from the garage!! Stop using this word “Depression” in the wrong place! You will get over it and dam quick I would think. There is organic and inorganic depression I think, organic being when you are born with it or develop it in time, where as inorganic is when you lose your wallet or the like. DONT use the word depression in this manner as it is so far from the real thing.

I know of a few people that suffer with depression other than myself and it is no joke, it takes over your mind and being and even knowing it will pass in time, it still makes you want to die! while your going through it.

Mania

Me though, I don’t just get the down side, oh no, I get to swing right up the other end with Mania!! oh yes a double bloody whammy of ups and downs and up and over and bloody down again! And this is when you are trying to work your job and enjoy friends and hold down a relationship! Still single at 41 and I cant see any girl wanting to manage a guy like me with emotional baggage! Can you? Even though I’m liked by many I just cant let anyone in as I feel my bipolar will drive them away at some point.

Bi-polar (Manic Depression) or any mood disorder is a thorn in anyone’s side and it has caused no end of emotional pain in my life since I was about 16, so I have been told by doctors. This explains why I think the way I do and why so many people get right on my nerves with the way they behave!! let me swap with you please….

Yes I’m well and truly in my depressive cycle so I had to take a week off work using holiday, no sick time left that is paid for and that is all my holiday gone now. Great way to spend it !! staying home wanting to die!! such fun I have I tell you its amazing… But even as I just wrote that line and am feeling sorry for myself, in popped the kids and wives of the dead British Army guys being repatriated at Wootton Bassett in Wiltshire. Now that makes me feel bad for feeling bad! Shall I sink lower………. arse bloody biscuits I hate this,where is the bloody sharp knife gone… ok ok will have a cuppa first. I have to joke for my sanity.

So there is a very very very small in site into how just the depressive nature of Bi-polar gets you. The Manic side is no better as it got me bankrupt, homeless and I lost friends and upset my closest family. I have had lots of sexual partners! So some sort of upside I guess some of you may think but Nah, not really when its just empty lust driven by the mania. Love is what we need but its hard to find.

Anyway next week I will be talking about my left buttock! Don’t miss out on the beauty Till then chin up and if you have depression right now like myself, just jump off a bridge or watch eastenders for a night!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh the thought of that… yes It was a joke about the bridge. Not funny to most but for me its a dig at how I feel.

On a positive note I’m trying different things to help these moods. Walking along my local river bank is great, fresh air and beautiful views helps me focus. I’m really excited about and have gotten into hypnotherapy in a few ways. Looking at the “Brain evolution system” and others, I will write more on it once I think its working.

This is a 15 min free download that I think is really good. Get some help.
