The message about The City of One has been forwarded to 100’s of thousands and there is great silence.

Truthfully, I was expecting it. Nevertheless, the seed has been planted and THE ONE is watering it, whether man accepts it for now or not, and it will grow into a gigantic new Tree of Life, superseding all others – for such is the Divine plan. I have no doubts about this.

If any one of you has even distantly been reading and watching the world’s news in recent years, you must have noticed that what was once considered by most as a conflict there-and-then in the Middle East is rapidly becoming an issue here-now-and-everywhere. So this message is about all of you, without exception – all individuals of One.

Let me explain a bit more this message from One. The idea is to gift the Holy City of One (Jerusalem), nexus of so many religious conflicts – as was always the original intent – to the One God creator of all mankind: Hebrews, Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, earth-based religions, non-religious humans, atheists, others etc… No exception is possible then. No elitism, or competition makes any sense, since One Created and keeps Creating and vibrating ALL.

One is not a name, but expresses the IDEA that God is the same for all and is One, and that we are within that Oneness, whether we recognize it or not.

Although we proudly claim, since Abraham, to often preach monotheism (belief in one God), mankind seems to wants to own the Deity and therefore call it by the name(s) of its choice. We have yet to even start manifesting that very notion which in itself could save all of us and bring eternal happiness, peace, harmony, and prosperity to all. Sadly enough, the notion of One Eternal Energy/Intelligence pervading All and Everything has not yet been integrated by the many parts and often hijacked and misconstrued by the human spiritual hierarchies. Names and restricted visual or conceptual representations are still trumpeted, worshiped, bowed to, and fought for. The One has no implied connotation to any religion, and at the same time is the Supreme and only God of all. In reality, polytheism (the belief in many gods and/or sub-gods and hierarchies) and monotheism are not antagonistic. The many can and do exist within The One. Nevertheless, often enough, polytheism has lost the understanding that ALL of it is still a part of The ONE. We are all sub-gods Creating within the One, at all dimensional levels. So we do find that many humans find comfort in the sub-divisions and great un-easiness in the idea of the Unity of it all in One.

The message about The City of One was about introducing the idea that we are here for a fleeting time (called lifetime) not to own property, land, or “things”, but to experience life in the best interconnected and happiest way possible for all. Therefore making the Old City of Jerusalem an offering which will never be owned nor titled to any man, organization, or rhetorical theology, but offered to the One, would begin the process of awakening mankind to the Jerusalem (peace, perfection, completion) within all hearts, as mankind finally recognizes its truest purpose far away from the dark parts of the old matrix, which are now, as the small amount of feedback received shows, fighting for survival, by secretly negatively influencing many sub-conscious minds as they read this type of message so that they do not perceive how far reaching and liberating the idea of ONE is.

The dark side of our ancient and enslaving matrix is based on illusory structures, concepts, name calling, gods, sub-gods, spiritual hierarchies, man-infused religions, sectarian spiritual ventures, holographic projections/inserts (extra terrestrials etc…), distorted writings, scientific half-truths and theories, national longing and arrogance, divisions of land and property, class fights, its own illusory system of judgment and karma system, and the extreme exploitation and subjugation of the natural world outside and the inner nature within. It feeds and props up fearful situations, and anger. It supports, funds, and propels forward anything and any one or group of individuals that will imprison our minds into very primitive and idiotic beliefs. It is incredibly fearful of real change and true spiritual evolution. It is highly cunning and insidious. It is within all of us and outside of us as a gigantic thought form feeding on our support and energy to continue growing and existing. It hides under the disguise of all kinds of names, images, and concepts: all preaching national, spiritual or material elitism and separation. The only notion it never hides under is the notion of One, for that very notion is the only one which spells destruction and FINAL extinction to it.

It fears that recognition of One more than anything else.

We have suffered enough because of it. We have been repeating, in ever changing cycles, with different and ever more sophisticated tools, these very childish behaviors. The tools available now to the children in the playground of Creation have reached such destructive potential, that were it not for The One, we would have blown up each other to smithereens many times over.

Why would you think that the Hebrews, Christians, or Muslims would accept to cede what they perceive as a Holy ground to any other human group/organization? Should we introduce another Eastern religion (Gautama Buddha always warned against building dogmas and a cult of personality around him and not around the Infinite One) or a purely human matrix structure into the powder cake of the Middle-East to supersede and “control” the situation? Of course not. Don’t we have enough problems with the extant three present religions originating from the Monotheistic revelation of the patriarch Abraham, and all originating from the same One?

We should only welcome the presence of One within the walls of the Old city and trust in the feeling of One to infuse peace. This is about the unification of ALL humanity into One and to The One. As a matter of fact, the walls of Jerusalem would then come down very fast as a symbol of openness and an invitation to freedom.

Have we lost the belief in the All Potential and Creative magical Divine, and its miracles?

Don’t we understand that the One has been seemingly absent for so long, as a test to Himself as Creation/man, wanting to allow for the full creativity of Himself as mankind to operate for a while without perceived direct Divine intervention?

Within the glorious new Tree of Life, all men, women, and children, would be welcomed and feel the direct presence of the One as they enter the Holy city. They would not mainly intend – as is the case now – to worship in separated groupings, but rather to feel the Oneness of us all, show gratitude for being gifted life, sing, dance, and bathe in the sacred energy of the only place where man, no matter its origin, color, creed or not, and political orientation, would commune with the Oneness of feeling that we are all brothers and sisters and One with the One: Father and Mother to ALL. All prayers originating from all credos and segments of humanity would be heard and all voices and songs would resound in interconnected hymns claiming our Spiritual freedom and newly found awareness.

Is this something to shun from? Is darkness/fear that much sweeter than Light/Love? Have we totally lost it?

And then, this idea would sprout a parallel and higher level matrix/tree, superimposed on the old one and chewing away at it, made up at first of isolated and interconnected communities/places that would let go of the idea of power and control, and desire to bath in the same atmosphere of Unconditional Love and care. Hubs of interconnected learning and living centers, advanced clean technologies, and transcending societal structures would sprout all over the globe interconnected to the City of One, and no human could ever stop this movement as the City of One would be Eternally outside of the controlling structure of the old matrix of enslaving thoughts and concepts. The new Tree of Life seeded by the Unconditional Loving Feminine facet of the One would have then taken firm roots, and its branches and leaves grow into magnificence, reaching heavens and giving shade and comforts to all of us.

Mankind would have saved itself, by itself, and received the revelation of One in its heart.

There could be no turning back.

The idea of the City of One is that the direct and especially indirect protagonists (many who are hidden and use it for their economical, spiritual, or political agendas) when seriously confronted, could not afford to refuse this peace-full offering to the One God whom they claim to all worship and represent. This is because the idea of One God and their touted concern to please him/her is the ONLY and UNIQUE idea that unites them above all other ideas which separates them.

When one wants to bring peace to dueling factions, it is a well known fact amongst successful negotiators that one should make a list and only allow discussions of points that unite them and never bring focus upon the ones that separate them, as these divisions become eventually easily solved as tempers cool down, and the recognition of fraternity and common interests takes hold.

In this case, and in the case of most conflicts in our current world, the only idea which unites all, is the idea and desire to please the One God. So let us help manifest it soon, without and within, so that inner and eternal peace reigns forever. This would really please the One God, for It would not have to witness Its children destroying themselves and their happiness because they misunderstand what One means and expresses.

Why does it seem so hard for so many to understand what is meant by One, The One, the number One, Oneness, One Creator? I cannot believe the amount of people who sent me emails asking what is really meant by an entity called “One?”

Are we so disconnected that many have lost understanding of what our common One Source is? Or is the primitive programming so ingrained that we cannot think “outside of the box” about the simplest number, truest notion, concept, and reality: ONE?

Let me conclude by bringing you the Divine Song of Love originating from the Holy Feminine Facet of Eternal Love and Unity of the One operating deep within Creation – The Shekinah (Sakina, Mary, etc.. ): the Holy Presence of The One, up-to-now entombed within the Jerusalem manifested on earth and the Jerusalem present within the hearts of all.

The Divine Song of Love

This Song is about Her on-going release from exile from Oneness, the New Tree of Eternal Life, and is addressed to Her Beloved Creation and Light.

When the Red Sun sets on the dancing horizon

It is I who will be waiting for you

The Garden brims with life

Hidden behind its walls of stone

From love, Her seed was planted

In the beginning ~ within the Garden

The seedling ~ now a magnificent tree

Throbs intensely with energy for the world

Lying beneath Her ~ She comforts with her shade

Listening to Her ~ She whispers words of love and wisdom

Seeing Her ~ She is more magnificent than all others

Her massive trunk twists profusely

A sign of her power … a sign of beauty yet unfelt

Her roots will nourish the world

For they are grounded deep within

Tirelessly pumping the essence of life to an unknowing world

Much pain will be saved with Her coming

She is all that is divine ~ Compassion, Love, Truth

Forgive Her mistakes, and you will be blessed with the One that is True

She is life, itself, so powerful ~ so sensitive

Maintain the balance and

Show caution with your treatment of Her

She searches and finds those worthy

You will see the purity within her footsteps

Her understanding must not be overlooked

Her fruit has grown ripe and red

Her branches bending toward the earth,

Surrendering to the fruits they hold ~ unreleased

Her fingers long to touch the soil she is rooted to

The nurturing soil which is forever Her

The soil in which she sprouted long ago

How I long to taste the sweetness once again

To feel the juices dripping from my lips

Entering all that I am ~ Feeding life into my veins

The seeds of love sprouting all around me

The days of tomorrow taunt me ~

My mind swirls within its own existence

Yesterdays storms thunder within me

Lightning pierces the ground surrounding my feet

Still near is the memory of rain pelting down my face

I am naked ~ wrapped in a blanket of cold winds

Always threatening…piercing my soul…then retreating

The Light is my protector ~ warm me

The story played out above, untold below

Darkness and shadows….light and love

Patiently, I wait for the pages to unfold

To become wisdom ~ led by a light I cannot resist

Each verse a treasure to be carefully read

The story…in Truth…to be told to the masses

I dream of the sunshine warm on my face

The smell of the Earth after the passing storm

The Light’s rays penetrating the wetness, filling us completely

Listen…hear the sounds of life among the world once cleansed

No more dormant ~ the seedlings will reach for the stars

The breath of life blown into them

Within the light and the darkness

Their images lure me close

Like a glowing spirit

It is wisdom which flows through my veins

All knowing, all seeing

Electrical energy pulses within me

Unashamed and knowing, it penetrates

I am fragmented pieces from Others loyal to Him

Gifts from heaven above, my duty told

I struggle to surface from the depths of my ocean

Wet and gasping for the air, once so familiar

Trembling with the thought of needing it no more

As it was when I had wings

The sky displays proudly its gathering circle

I am One with those in flight ~ So white, so pure

Their innocence like mine

This moment never to be had again

The way of the story, two lovers having embraced long ago

Breathless, they anticipate their next encounter

Cautiously waiting in the atmosphere of love

Others, having danced with the Light

Their chance now gone forever

It is now the eagles who dance above

Their wings touching ~ caressing one another

In their existence, there is nothing else

As I watch ~ I am blessed from above

The message so clear

Dance with me ~

All I want is my Song of Love

The words written long ago ~ still unsung

Your love ~ is the question

I only know ~ love is the answer

As I stand on the road, I see you

You are so magnificent in all that you are

Your canyon walls ~ so high and twisted

I feel your thirst

Let me fill you with my waters

Let me lead you home ~ as a river does

My Song of Love will be for you My Beloved

When it is time, time for the dance

It is then you will see clearly

The Song of Love is beginning to play…

The One

In the name of Oneness in One

I've been dancing for 18 years. Just started a full-time job and want to dance at nights. Know of any summer programs/classes. Live in south shore area is MA.

Savaria Dance Studio, Route1, Norwood, (781) 769-9611



03 29th, 2009

I have never been to a ballroom dance class before and have no idea what to wear. I just want to look like I belong there/know what I'm doing.

I would suggest wearing a skirt or a dress that twirls. It may sound juvenile, but it makes it that much more FUN!! I usually opt for a skirt and cute top combo that is comfortable and twirly with a bit of class and gives your legs room to move. I'm not sure if that description is helpful…

As for shoes, opt for COMFORT over anything!! The first class I went to I left wanting to saw my feet off!! I didn't choose my shoes well:( I was a dancer for ten years before I took my first ballroom dance class, I should have thought about my shoe choice better! So be warned!! (Also, another user mentioned traction which is a great idea!)

Dancing with the Stars starts Monday the 19th!! So excited:):)

1. Yoga and Fitness
Thousands of years ago, yoga started off as a means of spiritual development in ancient India. Its health benefits are so many that it has become a popular exercise the world over. The exercises have wonderful stretching effects on the muscles and ligaments of the body. It provides both physical and mental relaxation. Apart from toning the body, it activates the mind too. Yoga is a complete exercise of the body, mind and soul.

By promoting flexibility, it facilitates blood circulation and muscle tone. The muscles, ligaments and joints remain supple, hence, pain-free. Suppleness in the body keeps you younger and healthier.

2. Asthmatics and Sports
Are you a sports loving person? If unfortunately you have asthma, you may feel robbed of the fun of playing. However, there is no need to be disappointed, as you can still enjoy sports. There are many asthma- friendly sports and they can help your lungs to become stronger. These are fishing, walking, cycling, swimming, and canoeing. But, before considering any of them consult your doctor, as it may be possible that your health may not permit you these activities. Moreover, a few sports must be avoided, as they can be harmful for asthma patients. Your doctor can guide you in these matters.

3. Ride a Bicycle
Bicycling is one of the best forms of exercise to keep fit. Most of us love riding a bike, but due to our laziness or lack of time, we do not take a ride. Bicycling has several advantages, such as it makes the cardiovascular system stronger. You will become fitter, if you go for riding a bicycle over short distances. Moreover, you will inhale fresh air and enjoy nature a little more closely.

4. Jogging or Walking
Do you know jogging and walking are one of the best ways to be fit? Using stairs instead of a lift or escalator is also a form of exercise. Walking or jogging tone your muscles and are helpful in reducing stress. Moreover, they also make the heart healthier and enhance the capacity of the lungs. You will be active and look great, as your circulatory system improves. So, prefer walking and look beautiful and smart.

5. Swimming
Everyone wants to be in shape and retain his or her great physique or figure throughout life. It is not a very tough task to be in shape; the only thing it needs is sincerity of purpose and dedication. Check out for a pool in your community or local gym or YMCA OR YWCA, or your own pool. Make it a point to swim regularly, as it will help you to be in shape. Swimming is the finest way to be in shape. Attend classes on water aerobics. These exercises will make your body tight and you can put off several extra kilos. It is more fun than exercise. So, do not delay take a dive in the pool.

6. Play Tennis
Playing tennis is also a great way to reduce stress and to stay in shape. There is no need to be an expert in tennis while playing it. Your running after the ball will do a lot of good for you. It enhances the cardiovascular system and is quite helpful in reducing weight. Check out the nearest tennis court and start playing tennis. Do you not think, it is the best way to do exercise along with entertainment?

7. Dance to a tune
We all love dancing, as it requires no special skill. Just swing along the music whether it is a slow number or ballroom dance, or the fast heart pumping techno. The main thing is the movement of the body, as moving the whole body is an exercise in itself. Most of the experts consider it as one of the best ways to be fit. Therefore, play the music and start dancing.

8. Workout CDs
If you are unable to get an expert trainer or do not have the time to attend classes then buy workout CDs. These workout tapes will be a change from the regular movies you watch on your DVDs. Just play them for a few minutes daily and start following the routines. You will be astonished to see the wonderful results.

9. Flatten Your Stomach
It is a little tough to get a flat stomach, but a little extra effort can give your abdomen nice shape. Most athletes go for crunches, as they are quite effective. Bend your knees, lie on your back, flatten your feet on the ground, cross your hands across the chest, and roll towards your hips from the sternum by curling your torso. Do this exercise slowly. Repeat thrice and each time do ten crunches. Once you start enjoying this, your number of crunches and turns will increase. Do not forget to check the flatness of your abdomen.

10. Squats
For glutes, quads, hamstrings and calves, squats are the best form of exercise. You can do it by spreading your feet apart, firmly place them on the ground and then gently bend your knees. Now, as you slowly squat, take care not to go all the way down. It is a little tough but soon you will get accustomed to it. You can achieve great results in a short time.

11. Triceps Press
While exercising many people prefer to have tight arms. Their main concern is to tighten up the loose arms. Go for triceps press, it will surely help you in attaining tight arms. Firstly, stand on the ground with your feet stretched apart around two feet, bend your knees a little and over the head stretch your arms. Lock the elbows and then slowly lower your hands towards the back. Use lightweights initially for this exercise – one to five pounds will be enough. You can also use pounds of vegetables, instead of weights for this exercise. Soon you will forget those loose flabby arms and enjoy the tightness and firmness.

12. Gym
There are several people, who need proper inspiration or motivation to start exercising. It will not be possible for them to work out at home, as they do not get the appropriate atmosphere. Many people enjoy exercises at home, as they are self-motivated. But, for others there are several gyms that can motivate or inspire them. Before opting for any gym, check out the trainer, equipments and the classes. So, spend a little of your money and gain a great body in the bargain.

13. Social Circle
Do not think that going to the gym only means having a great body. It also has one more advantage. There will be a considerable increment in your social circle. You will make new friends, who also fitness freaks. Therefore, you will get motivation and enjoyment hand in hand.

14. Fitness Program

Most of us perform aerobic exercises to be in shape. However, you can balance your fitness program by adding weight training to it. Appoint an expert or a professional trainer for proper guidance and see the wonderful results in few weeks.

15. Heat Therapy

Muscle pain is a common problem these days. Several ointments are available in the market to sooth the muscle pain. The main cause for muscle pain is overwork. Due to overwork, they tighten and result in pain. The best way to cure them is through heat therapy. Heat enhances the flow of blood and relaxes the muscles. Thus, heat therapy is a great way to sooth muscular pain making the joint more flexible.

16. Stretch your muscles

Sports day is coming closer and you are very excited since you are participating in it. Well, it demands a lot of hard work. During the practice sessions, you may suffer injury due to stretching. It would be beneficial to do stretching exercises before each event, as these will prevent injuries due to stretching. Moreover, your muscles will strengthen and you will be able to stretch your muscles properly.

17. Avoid running in the sand

Most of us love running or walking on sand. However, it has some bad effects also. Running on sand requires extra force and this extra force puts pressure on the joints. You may face several problems in the knees, ankles or even the back, due to pressure on the joints. Therefore, for the sake of joints try to avoid running on sand.

18. Importance of Quality

While purchasing your training or running shoes, do not fall for the price tag. It is quite possible that shoes having a lower price will be of poor quality. Never compromise on the quality, as it may cost you your health. The shoes made from poor quality material may cause severe injury to you.

19. Warm up your body

Finally, you have decided to start exercising. Wait a minute! Do you know that before starting the exercise program you must warm up your body? For Instance, before you start running, always jog for a few minutes to warm up. After warming up you can run or exercise much better.

20. Breathing problems

It is important for asthmatics to keep an inhaler with them. In case, you are a fitness freak then you must keep an inhaler with you. Caffeine provides temporary relief to asthma, as it temporarily relaxes the bronchial constriction. One may also develop breathing problems due to their running habits. Such kind of breathing problem is called “Exercise Induced Asthma”. You must consult your doctor and do not forget to mention about your running habits.

21. Resistance

It would be beneficial to add certain resistance during your isometric workout. While doing isometrics, use special rubber bands or other such devices that will be useful.

22. Minimize the exercise program

Due to excessive work pressure or a vacation, you may miss your regular exercise program. Try not to miss your exercise program completely, and do whatever little you can manage. Minimizing the exercise program will give you the much-needed break. Moreover, if you completely stop exercising, it would be difficult for you to resume it. Thus, minimal program would make easier to resume the exercise program.

23. Exercise and summer

Now, that you are strictly following the exercise program, you will feel that exercise is so refreshing for your mind and body. The body also needs to be replenished after exercise, as it loses fluids in the form of sweat. So, do not forget to take 16 ounces of water after every 30 minutes. One should drink enough water or any sport drinks to prevent dehydration.

24. Be realistic

Now since you have decided to attain great shape by following an exercise regimen, do not expect quick results. Start off your blocks slowly and add on the workload gradually. There is no need to hurry and worry. During the initial phases, never try a hard workout, as you will not be able to continue due to injury. Always start slowly and be firm with your determination of attaining a great shape. Just keep in mind ‘Slow and steady wins the race’.

25. Fitness

Only a fit person can be consider as a healthy person. Fitness and health are directly proportional to each other. We must take proper care of our body. If we ignore our well-being, we will be sick. To stay fit follow certain rules and see you will lead a healthy life.

26. Get Motivated

Visualize how you would look after putting in all the hard work. Fix a picture of your idol on the wall to draw inspiration from him. You will feel motivated to work harder.

27. Your pregnancy exercises

No point generally to think about exercises when you are pregnant. Consult your family physician who would form a line of exercises for you to do. There are certain yoga exercises that are safe. Practice leg extension, standing curls or some other exercise, which you can do freely.

28. Keep a Track of Your Progress

Keep track of your progress. Take all the related measurements before you start an exercise regimen. Compare your measurements on a regular basis to learn of your progress.

29. Consult Physician

If you are undergoing a treatment course prescribed by your doctor, check before you mix drugs with your exercise. This may lead to ill effects like causing your heart to beat faster.

30. Cooling Down

Cooling down is as imperative to maintain after the exercise as that of warming up before exercise. When you have completed your routine, a ten minutes walk or stretch will allow your body to cool down. This is most important for the muscles joints, heart and lungs.

31. Accompany Your Dogs

Take along your dogs for long walks on a leash. Enjoy the picture outside instead of simply opening the back door just to let them go out on their own. You too will have a fair amount of exercise.

32. Light Lunch and a Walk

Take light lunch to have more leisure during your lunch hour. Enjoy brisk walk while heading back to your office. This will make you feel refreshed and charged with new energy for the afternoon.

33. Bowling is Fun and Exercise

You can try to find out if you have a bowling alley near your home. Join a bowling league to have both exercise and fun at the same time. Bowling action gives you some exercise.

34. Plans and Goals

Chalk out a neat plan for setting your goal. Divide smartly the time at your disposal to complete major workload, which you may normally do through out the year. Keep a check on your progress vis-à-vis the goals.

35. Neurobics

Researchers in the United States have coined a new term called neurobics. This relates to the ways in which the brain gets activated with its own biochemical pathways. Positive thinking has been known to generate positive energies that help get rid of disease. It energizes the whole system including the immune system.

36. Training at Intervals

Training at intervals is a nice way to gain fitness quicker. You may also lose weight fast. Instead of having a steady workout pace, it is better to introduce intensity variations through intervals. This is good for your fitness and keeps your interest intact.

37. System of breath in-breath out

The point at issue is what breathing is to do with fitness. Precisely breathing has a lot to do with fitness. When you are exercising, you need to maintain a proper breathing pattern to help oxygen reach all parts of the body. A rhythmic pattern also ensures endurance during a workout.

38. Friends Circle

Motivate your family and friends to join and support your fitness program. This would mean to have full support from your family, where they need to respect you to reach your goal and not offer food, which clashes with your health program needs. You may try to explain what kind of encouragement you wish to have from your family and friends.

39. Age Limit

Most naturally there would be a vast difference between young people and old people. When you are not so young, you may not be able to overcome an obstacle, which is no big deal for a youngster. Do not be disappointed, you can substitute one activity for another that is compatible with your physical condition.

40. Diabetes and effective exercises

People with diabetes can think of aerobics exercises. These exercises help a diabetes patient to maintain normal health. Exercise and proper eating habits can help maintain normal glucose metabolism. Before embarking on an exercise regimen, it will be advisable to consult your doctor in the matter.

41. Injuries Caused by Golf

Golf as sport is not high impact, but injuries are a part of the sport. A golfer will normally suffer a torn rotator cuff. As a preventive measure, keep your muscles strong and flexible. Even some elementary stretching exercises can you help immensely. Practice a slow, smooth turn when you start to stretch, hold for 30 seconds and come back slowly to the point of origin. Stretching exercises are a must before and after a game.

42. Stretching the body and mind

Stretch your body before and after exercise to warm it up and cool it down. Simultaneously you may have to stretch your mind too. Your body performs better when your mind is in a relaxed state. Listening to soothing music, and doing relaxed deep breathing relaxes the mind.

43. Gym Equipment

If you have made up your mind to get fit, and are thinking of buying some equipment, you can survey the market. Make a list of things you require. Take an expert along with you who knows all about gym equipment because there are some sellers who would offer you a big discount on equipments just to pass on equipment that may not be in good working order. However, most people dealing in the sales of equipment are honest.

44. Beauty Lies within You

A universal truth goes like god creates the human body, and as a matter of fact everybody is built differently. When you talk about beauty it is within you, and you have to maintain the same in order. It is only you who can define how much you are in love with yourself. So long you eat the right food, keep all good habits, do exercises, you will remain healthy. Do not be carried away by star models of Hollywood, when you watch them in glamour magazine covers. Do the maximum you can do for the inside beauty than to think of outside beauty.

45. Let the Sweat Flow

Sweat is a very important eliminatory process of the body that gets rid of toxic wastes. It is your natural air conditioner too. As sweat dries, it cools the body down. You will find many advertisements in the paper and on TV promoting deodorant products for exercise. There is no point using them. Let your sweat flow freely and naturally.

46. Prevention is better than cure

When you are exposed to outdoor heat or are subjected to indoor suffocation, you can fall prey to heat related illnesses. The body at this point needs water to recover itself from water loss. Drink a lot of water, because the accumulated heat inside can cause heat stroke. Prevention is better than cure. Keep yourself away from outdoor heat and take a lot of fluids. Immediately consult your physician, if you feel ill.

47. Your Pulse Rate

While you exercise, it is desired that you keep a proper track of your pulse rate with the help of a pulse measure. If you do not have a pulse measure, use your first three fingers of one hand and place them on the wrist of the other hand just below the thumb along the outer edge. Measure the pulse beat for a minute. A rested normal body has a pulse rate of 72 beats per minute. While exercising the pulse rate goes up. The pulse rate quickly recovers in a healthy body when you stop the exercise.

48. Be Safe

It is better to be safe than sorry. Protect yourself with all the protective gear prescribed for the sport you are playing. Do not be careless in this regard. Head guards, groin guards, shin guards, gloves etc. are all examples of protective gear. You may be injured if you are not well protected. Fatalities do occur at times in rough contact sports. So, it is better to exercise caution.
