Relaxation: what if we tried the Mind & Body?
Between the black subway world, the pressure in the office and the children to recover after school, difficult to live in a "zen" way. Unfortunately, there are few that escape the stress a life at 100 per hour. The problem is that this stress is not only very unpleasant to live on a daily basis but it can also, and often is, the cause of muscle pain, especially in the back. And yes, when you are stressed or had a bad day, the back is often the first touched. Only one solution to put an end to this situation: take the time to relax.
Relax, but still need to know how to do it. To light candles, to take a hot bath, to listen to soft music, all that is pleasant but in general not enough to silence the anxieties and the stress and really relax the muscles. It is in this perspective that the Mind & Body was born. Inspired by different practices of relaxation such as pilates, yoga and stretching, the Mind & Body, the last of the Fitness First centers, aims at relaxation, both psychological and muscular. And yes, during Mind & Body, body and mind become one.
Here, unlike the courses of gym where the movements are repeated several times and very quickly, the atmosphere is rather the slowness of the gestures and the concentration on each of the movements that one carries out. The teacher, who is responsible for supervising the course, therefore indicates a single movement, targeted and to be done once. The essential thing is to concentrate and become aware of this movement, as well as to understand its usefulness. This awareness of the gesture is essential for the course to be effective and for the effect on the stress feel it. Once we have assimilated the movement, we learn to control it and maintain the position for a few minutes and move on to another.
The goal is both to relax and relax the back muscles that are too contracted because of the stressbut also to learn to tone and strengthen them to avoid future pain. The courses of Mind & Body will therefore also be very useful for all those who have scoliosis, a deformation of the spine, because the strengthening of the back muscles will help reduce this inclination of the spine.
The Mind & Body, for whom? You have understood this, this course is for all those who want to evacuate their stress and who prefer soft activities to sports intense, but not only. The Mind & Body is also particularly suitable for all those who have not done sport long time and who would like to resume smoothly. In addition, the teacher takes into account the participants' problems and adapts as much as possible to everyone's needs. No reason so not to try!
I want to test the Mind & Body : go to the rooms of gym Fitness First, from the month of January. To find a room near you, //www.fitnessfirst.com/.
