Tapping To Neutralizer Anxiety 

The emotional freedom technique (EFT), or EFT tapping, is an alternative treatment that involves applying light pressure points to help reduce stress.

Tapping your way to stress relief may seem a bit “woo woo” at first, but folks often use it to help manage anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

How does EFT tapping work?

EFT tapping is similar to acupuncture, but there are no needles involved. Instead of using thin needles, EFT has you tap 9 of the 12 major meridian points, also called "pressure points."

People think that when you tap on these spots, you send signals to your brain that tell it to stop making stress hormones.

EFT also involves making a mantra that helps you recognize and accept the problems that are making you feel stressed or anxious. And rate how you feel before the process and after it.

Any Proof? 

A study from 2020 suggests that EFT could lower cortisol levels (also known as the stress hormone) by as much as 43%. It might also help your blood pressure and immune system, which can also make you feel less stressed.

This is supported by a 2016 study that found people who used EFT tapping techniques had a big drop in stress and anxiety. But this study didn't compare how well EFT works to other proven ways to deal with anxiety, like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).Next time you feel stressed out, give EFT a try and let us know if it worked for you :)

📰 Positive News Of The Day! 

The largest reserve in the world for larger one-horned rhinos had no rhino poaching last year, Indian police said this week.

In India's Assam state's Kaziranga national park, a wildlife refuge, no rhinos were killed for the first time since 1977.

The good news is a victory for environmentalists who have been putting up a lot of effort to safeguard the creatures. According to the local police, 58 poachers were detained last year, according to Reuters.

According to the International Rhino Foundation, the number of one-horned rhinos worldwide has increased dramatically from 200 to more than 4,000 since the start of the 20th century.

HOW DO I OBSERVE MY BREATH? Observing the breath is the main technique used by people who practice vipassana—“insight” or “mindfulness” meditation. This Buddhist practice translates to “see clearly” or “look deeply.” You can observe your breath by counting inhalations and exhalations as you would in pranayama practice, or simply by watching the breath come and go, without changing it. To focus your meditation on your breath, observe its nuances. Notice how it moves in your abdomen and chest, and how it feels as it comes in and out of your nose. Become aware of its quality and temperature without dwelling on or judging these details. Remain detached from what you’re observing. Simply allow yourself to be with the breath from moment to moment.

Yoga Flow To Cultivate Happiness

These balancing poses leave you feeling centered, calm, and ready to conquer the world.

AS YOU PRACTICE Rather than bearing your weight in your wrists, think of lifting out of the wrists and drawing energy up through the arch of the hand. When you stretch the hamstrings, draw the thighbones up and into the hip joints to isolate the stretch in the belly of the muscles.

Reflection: You are training your mind in “one-pointed attention,” with the surprising result of happiness. “Yoga aims for complete awareness in everything you do,” said B.K.S. Iyengar, founder of the Iyengar Yoga style.

Additional benefits: Releases tension in the wrists and forearms; strengthens your core; stretches your hamstrings.

1.      Cat-Cow Pose, variation- Come onto all fours with fingers pointing backward. Inhale, lift your gaze and sitting bones to the ceiling. Exhale and round your spine, bringing your gaze to the navel. Repeat five times.

2.       Adho Mukha Svanasana (Downward Facing Dog Pose)- Turn your hands so that your fingers point forward. Tuck the toes. Inhale, and lift your sitting bones up and back. Exhale, and lengthen the sides of your torso

3.      Uttanasana (Standing Forward Bend) variation- Step the feet together and roll forward. Soften your knees to relax the hamstrings; rest your chest on your thighs

4.        Malasana (Garland Pose), Wide Yogi Squat Twist variation- Step feet forward outside your hands. Lower your hips. Press your right upper arm into the inside of your right leg. Walk the right fingertips past the right toes. Reach the left hand up. Return to the center and do the other side.

5.       Plank Pose- Bend your knees, place your palms flat, and step back into Plank Pose. Lift the sides of the waist to engage your core. Lengthen through the spine, reaching the crown of the head forward and extending your heels back.

6.       Vasisthasana (Side Plank Pose), variation- Pivot to the outer edge of the right foot. Step the left foot in front of the right knee. Press through the right hand and left foot to lift the hips; extend the left arm. Return to Plank and do the other side.
