Light and Colors


Introduction

Light is electromagnetic energy that can pass through transparent objects and empty space without requiring any medium for its transmission from one place to another. There arc different views about colors. Light in actual effect is a combination of different frequencies and various wavelengths. Feeling of a particular wavelength, having a typical frequency, by the retina and the mind is known as color.

Spectrum:

In 1666 Sir Isaac Newton expounded the Principles of Gravitation and Theory of Colors. When the sunlight or the light waves. according to this theory, pass through a prism, they disperse according to their frequencies into seven bands and we know this grouping of waves. as colors, All the other colors arc shades of these seven bands of colors This band of rainbow colors resulting from the dispersal of light waves is named as spectrum. 

 Violet. indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange and red, are the colors in a spectrum our eyes arc more sensitive for yellow and green colors and interestingly the sunlight also boosts yellow and green more than other colors.

 Colors witnessed in a spectrum are only the visible part of the spectrum. The waves, which have wave lengths shorter than violet waves cannot be seen by our eyes e.g. ultra-violet rays, x-rays, gamma rays etc. Similarly the waves of larger wavelengths than the red also cannot be seen e.g. infra-red and microwaves.

 It is not so that everybody can witness the colors other than the seven colors of the spectrum. there are people who can witness even the invisible waves of the Electromagnetic Spectrum.

Colors and optical system:

How do Vie see color? There are different views in this regard. The idea that is generally accepted is known as Classical Theory. Classical Theory was presented by renowned Physicist Mr. Young and anatomist Mr. Jlelm Holtz. This is also called Young Helm Holtz Theory. Hath these scientists were moved to see that only three colors are enough to form other compound colors.

 Three types of cones. according 10 this theory, arc there on the retina. One type of cones is sensitive for the wavelengths of blue color. other is sensitive for yellow color and third type of cones is to feel the red. The wavelength of the color falling upon the retina triggers the concerned cone and thus the particular color is sighted. All the colors arc witnessed because of triggering of two or three cones e.g, wavelength of purple activates the cones sensitive for red and blue. Resulting activation of these two cones we sec purple color.

 Why do we see colors? Color, in actual fact. is that quality of the light which it expresses after mixing with darkness. We see an object black because it absorbs all the waves of the light and we see an object white: because it reflects all the waves of the light. We see an object red because it reflects the waves of the red color only and absorbs all the other waves. And, the same is true for all other colors.

 Why are the colors? How do they form? What . . arc the primary colors? Exact situation is vet not clear. Some consider that there are four primary colors: some say these are three. And, according to few. black is the basic and primary color. 

Spiritual Theory of Colors


Man has so far discovered about 60 types of colors and people with very sharp vision only can distinguish these sixty colors, Man names the thing.

 which sight can perceive, as color. light precious stones and in the last stage calls it water. When we see in the space and the sight reflects back upon the screen of our mind. it creates an impression. This impression is conceived as sky blue color.

 After raining, when the atmosphere is clear of dirt and smoke. the rays of the sky blue color change their hue according to their position. Here 'position' means atmosphere, which man terms high. low down. vast, near or away from the earth. These things make the blue color deep or light and so much so that it changes altogether into different color or colors. Between the earth and our range of sight there exist innumerable types of rays. The type of ray's is sighted as colors. The atmosphere is filled with many things besides rays of colors. which are responsible for changes in it. The scene before our sight includes light. oxygen. nitrogen. and other gases. Besides these gases some shades of different intensity are also there. Some other components also include in the sky blue color. These very components produce different types of colors. Here this must be kept in mind that the light and dark shades also play an important role in the making of different types of colors

 What is the actual source of light? Man does not know it exactly The distance between the  source of rainbow and earth is reported to be ninety million miles, This means that the colors seen so closely are originating at such a far away distance. It is bit difficult to  understand that besides rays what other things keep on dissolving in the air exist in the atmosphere. The smallest particle of the rays reaching us from the sun is called photon. 
In Sufism. the word 'aariz' is used for photon, Even the word photon does not cover the exact meanings. which the word aariz carries. but it is the only closest term that can give an occidental reader some idea of aariz. It is one of the characteristics of aariz that it has no dimensions and these arc so swift and fast that they come back from where they start their journey in the very same moment after covering. the whole cosmos. We cannot say what the status of photon is in this regard according to the scientists, but it is certain that aariz: travels through the universe at such an incredible speed that it reaches back. from where it starts it journey. in the very same moment after traversing the entire universe. Since there are no dimensions in the aariz. therefore, when they scatter in the form 0 frays. they neither collide nor replace one another.

 Space. ill actual fact, is the contact aariz with anyone of the elements existing in the atmosphere.

 What is this atmosphere'? Atmosphere is the division of colors. This division of colors is not happening because of the aari: alone; rather it takes place because of the loops produced by the aariz, When an aariz strike against these loops it gives rise to things like space, colors and other things.

 Now the question is that how the loops are formed in the rays. We do know about the existence of stars in the galaxies: the stars which are considered to he the sun. The distance between two stars is estimated to be five light years at the least. Wherever the lights of the stars collide they form loops because 01 difference In their types. Our earth or other planets are also merely loops. which are formed in the colliding lights of the billions of stars in our galaxies. Wherever the lights of these stars collide; a loop is formed which. after accumulating more lights takes the form of a planet.

 First of all a mixture of blue color. combined with many other colors, is received by man through his head and hair. These mixed colors keep on absorbing and i influencing the thoughts and feelings in him. The more one accepts the influence the more one is affected by It.

 There- are billions of cells in the human brain. An electric current resulting from the frequencies of" rays of colors. flows through these cells. Thoughts keep on passing through the conscious and the subconscious and more through the unconscious mind. due to this current. Thoughts and feelings keep on changing continuously under the influence of the light and dark shades of the colors. A shade, after producing its effect, leaves its place so that another type of shade could take over. The replaced shades. if they are dark enough. transform into Our feelings and rest of thoughts dissipate into thin air.

 Gradually man learns to connect these thoughts with one another. The thoughts, which arc not entertained, are altogether deleted. And. the thoughts that absorb in our mind become our acts and deeds. These very shades are responsible for the sorrows and delight that we experience. These make us happy or sorrowful according (0 (heir intensity. Discarded shades are discharged from the body system and which are absorbed and adopted. form our nervous system.

 Since man being a biped, walks and moves around in upright position on two feel. therefore. these shades. first or all, affect his brain, Our brain has specific movements through which it causes our nervous system work for us. The hind portion of our brain: medulla oblongata, and the spinal cord play the key role in our nervous system. The sorrow and delight. which in fact. are a son of electric impulse, enters the nervous system through our brain and affects the whole of our nervous system.

 The waves that enter the brain or bipeds me earthed through the feet after passing through the whole body. The weight and effectiveness of these waves arc not uniform for all the places in the atmosphere rather it varies from place to place because of their dividing nature As a result of this division the brain absorbs few shades more than others and the others are altogether left out.

 If we look at someone's (ace intently. we can notice various colors on 11 and the most prominent of all is the color or one's eyes and that of the feelings which one experiences at that particular moment. Many a reflections from outside influence our feelings: some refresh us. some cause us to become pensive. some give us strength and some make us feel weak. All the brain work depends upon those much seen things. which gradually infuse in our nerves, sometimes it works correctly and at times it does not. The brain waves produce so many impressions on a face that virtually it seems impossible to read all of them but still a sort of film is displayed on the bee that informs us about the impressions transferring into the nerves.

next week ill post about "The sky blue color".

Introduction color therapy treatment

Tuesday, January 17, 2017 Posted by Saravanan V 0 comments

Hi,

yes. after long time,  today im writing about color therapy treatment. we are acupuncturist. we can use for patient or not.  but we must know about this color therapy. 

Columns. Articles and write ups to create awareness in the masses about theory of colors, their therapeutic effects and methods of treating diseases using colors.


  1. Violet, 2. indigo, 3. blue, 4. green, 5. yellow, 6. orange and 7. Red.

We cannot claim that 100% patients were cured but the fact is, that if the colors are applied and used properly up to 99% results.

The biggest benefit of this therapeutic is that the treatment is cost effective.. almost free. simple and hassle free. This treatment can be carried out using ordinary drinking water after charging it with colorful rays. When this charged water is used, the stomach does not check it and its charge passes over to the blood and the nerves directly. Another property of thus charged water is that it circulates in the body just like ordinary water circulates after merging into blood and is excreted after leaving behind its absorbed colors in the veins, arteries and flesh. Every medicament affects the body and is excreted leaving behind its effects.

Another property of thus charged water is that it circulates in the body just like ordinary water circulates after merging into blood and is excreted after leaving behind its absorbed colors in the veins, arteries and flesh. Every medicament affects the body and is excreted leaving behind its effects.

Color Therapy balances the excess or deficiency of colors in the body and the required color infuses in the nerves and muscles. the most important characteristic of this therapeutic system. This also is the quality of the charged water that after discharging the color, it washes down the nerves, veins, blood cells, heart and the brain and helps in excreting the toxic and poisonous materials from the body system.

What, in actual fact is the history of colors:

What do the wavelength, frequency and creation of colors actually means? The present scientific theories about colors. the spiritual point of view. the system of waves and colors in the cosmos, production of the senses due 10 distribution of waves and chemical changes in the cells of the human body because of increase and decrease of colors.

Whether it is Homeopathy. Acupuncture, allopathy, Ayurveda or Biochemic or any other therapeutic system, all have one thing in common: the effect of vibrations upon the body.

Vibrations are of two types; direct and indirect Vibrations affect the body indirectly in all the  therapeutic systems except Color Therapy where the vibrations affect the body directly. When doctors. homeopaths and other medical practitioners tried this therapeutic system, the results proved La be satisfactory.

Research on Color Therapy is still on-going  and it is hoped that this therapeutic system will cause the medical science to enter into a new era and man would be benefited from this cost free and simple treatment. It is not unlikely for this natural and curative treatment system to become very popular among the masses.

Acupuncture points for Brain Refreshing

Saturday, July 16, 2016 Posted by Saravanan V 1 comments
Hi,
How are you friends? yes after long time return back. 

today im writing about acupressure points for brain refreshing  :) 



 

GV26 (above the upper lip) with GV16 (in the center of the base of the skull).
Use gentle touch.

basically GV26 is very important points for emergency time. 
this point indication for 
1. Coma, syncope, apoplexy, sunstroke, shock, respiratory failure
2. hysteria, insanity, epilepsy, mental diseases
3. nasal obstruction, epistaxis, facial edmea, deviation of the mouth, toothache, trismus, and other diseases of the nose and mouth
4. acute lumbar muscle sprain.



GV16 relaxes the brain, relieves mental stress, neck pain, and racing thoughts.

gv16 indication is 
1. Apoplexy, insanity, epilepsy, hysteria, mental diseases.
2. headache, vertigo, neck rigidity, sore throat, motor aphasia, eye pain, epistaxis.


After using these points, follow-up with 5-minutes of Foot Reflexology.

It’s essential to keep your sessions short in the beginning (15 minutes total max) especially for trauma and injuries, but then you can gradually increase the amount of time a few minutes more each week.





GV20 indication is
1. dementia, apoplexy, aphasia, clonic convulsions, insomnia, amnesia, insanity, epilepsy, hysteria, mental diseases.
2. head-wind, headche, dizziness, tinnitus and other diseases associated with kidney prolapse.


Please do not under estimate how healing this simple flow pattern is for stabilizing after injuries or a trauma.

Also add the famous point LI 4, in the webbing between your thumb and index finger. This point brings the energy down, away from the head and decreases inflammation.

Note. Needle not necessary for GV 26. just pressure is enough. 

10 Tips to Wake Up, Refresh, & Energize Your Brain


Weekday mornings are never appealing to the brain. However, there are certain things you can do to ease the torturous time and effort to wake up, refresh, and energize your mind. Check out our tips below:

1. Drink Water — Drink a glass of water immediately after you wake up to kick up your metabolism and de-fog your brain.

2. Don’t “Snooze” — You’re setting yourself up to feel lazy & unmotivated throughout the day when you delay waking up and hit “snooze” multiple times in the morning. Pick a time that gives you enough sleep but also enough time to go through your morning routine without rushing, and wake up when your first alarm rings.

3. Open the Blinds — Sunlight has a direct effect on the activity in our brains. When we deprive our brains of light, we will stay in a groggy, sleep-like state of consciousness. Bright light helps shift our brain waves to higher frequencies and triggers the release of brain-happy neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine.

4. Exercise in the Morning — The act of exercising in the morning might sound horrendous if you’ve never done it, but besides obvious health reasons, it’ll actually give you more energy throughout the whole day. Try sleeping in your workout clothes to lessen the chances of making excuses in the morning.

5. Turn up the Music — Listen to some upbeat tunes as you get ready in the morning. Studies have shown that music is the one stimulus that lights up the entire brain on a PET scan. Music helps the brain release dopamine, a neurotransmitter that helps to regulate the brain’s pleasure and reward centres, as well as emotional responses and motivation.

6. Take a Cold Shower — No explanation needed. It’s horrible. But it works.

7. Don’t treat Coffee like a “Drug” — On days you feel more energized, try to forego the coffee, or at least try cutting down the amount you drink everyday. If you absolutely need a pick-me-up, try drinking some brain-healthy green tea instead!

8. Eat Breakfast — Take the phrase “breakfast is the most important meal of the day” seriously. Breakfast gives your brain vital nutrients that it needs in order to optimally carry out mental processes throughout the day. Think of it as fuel for your body, without it, you’ll run out of fumes! Try including some brain-healthy foods in your breakfast diet.

9. Talk to Someone — Engage in some light chit-chat with a family member, friend, or co-worker in the morning. Even though you might not feel like it, taking the initiative to engage in a conversation really helps to get your mind & body out of a “zombie-like” state.

10. Play Fit Brains — Prep your brain for a new day’s workload by spending a few minutes playing Fit Brains brain games. Fit Brains exercises help stimulate and entertain your mind. You can play Fit Brains on any web browser or train on-the-go with our iOS, Android, or Amazon app!

Source points

Wednesday, May 4, 2016 Posted by Saravanan V 1 comments

hi,
today i would like to share about source points.



A source point refers to the place where the primordial qi from the organs gathers and then is distributed throughout the body. 

 I. The Yuan Source points are where the Yuan Qi, the body's primordial Qi, pools.
II. Each of the 12 meridians has a Yuan Source point including the TH which is also the meridian responsible for circulating the Yuan Qi.
III. With their relationship to the primordial Qi, the Yuan Source points indicate the nature of Yin in the body and the Yin Yuan Points can be used to tonify the 5 Yin Organs (HT, LU, SP, KD, LV) a/or as diagnostic tools for the 5 Yin Organs.
IV. The Yang Yuan Points are not used to tonify yang organs but can be used to expel pathogenic factors a/or release excess patterns.

 LI 4 - expel wind heat
TH 4 - clears heat from the GB
SI 4 - treat pain along the SI meridian
ST 42 - acute facial paralysis from wind-cold
GB 40 - resolve LV Qi stagnation

UB 64 - resolve damp cold in the lower warmer.













Each of the 12 regular meridians has a Yuan (Source) point near the wrist or ankle joints of the four extremities through which the vital energy of the zangfu organs passes and to some extent accumulates. "Yuan" means origin, and refers to the source of vital energy through which the pathological changes of zangfu organs are manifested. The chapter on the Nine Needles and the Twelve Sources of the book Lingshu states, "The twelve Yuan (source) points are indicated in disorders of the internal organs." The vital energy of the twelve regular meridians is ciosely associated with the Sanjiao which generalizes the functional activities of the stomach, spleen and kidney and is the manifestation of the function of vital energy. Vital energy, originating from the congen ital qi of the kidneys, is transported all over the body. It goes to the exterior, interior, superior and inferior parts of the body, following the courses of the meridians and maintaining vital functions of the human body. This process is maintained by the Sanjiao.

Clinically, Yuan (source) points are of great significance in treating diseases of the internal organs. Puncturing the Yuan (source) points stimulates the vital energy of the regular meridians, regulates the functional activities of the internal organs, reinforces antipathogenic factors and eliminates pathogenic factors. This method of treating diseases deals principally with the root causes. The Yuan (source) point from the affected meridian is often combined with the Luo (connecting) point of the internally-externally related meridians in use.

This is known as the combination of the main point (Yuan) and the accompanying point (Luo), or simply the combination of the Yuan (source) point and the Luo (connecting) point. Functionally, the Lung Meridian of Hand-Taiyin and the Large Intestine Meridian of Hand-Yangming are internally-externally related. The Yuan (source) point from the primarily affected meridian is combined with the Luo (connecting) point of its externally-internally related meridian. For example, if the Lung Meridian of Hand-Taiyin (interior) becomes diseased, sore throat, cough and asthma will occur. Taiyuan (Lu.9) is chosen as the main point and Pianli (L.I.6) is chosen as the accompanying one in the prescription. If the Large Intestine Meridian of Hand- Yangming (exterior) becomes diseased, e.g. toothache, Hegu (L.I.4), the Yuan (source) point of the Large Intestine Meridian of Hand-Yangming, and Lieque (Lu.7), the Luo (connecting) point of the Lung Meridian of Hand-Taiyin are prescribed.
Clinically, research has shown that pathological changes of the zangfu organs are often manifested at the twelve Yuan (source) points. For example, tenderness at a Yuan (source) point often indicates pathological changes of the associated meridian and the internally related organ.

In researching the meridian over the last few decades, Yuan (source) points were used as the key points to detect changes of cutaneous electrical resistance and to examine the condition of qi and blood of the twelve regular meridians. It was discovered that a significantly accurate estimation of the nature of many zangfu disorders could be made by using these methods.

The 12 Yuan (source) points are within the category of the Five Shu Points. Each Yang meridian has its own Yuan (source) point which is located between the Shu-stream point and the Jing-well point. The 6 Yin meridians do not have separate Yuan (source) points, their Shu-stream points being concurrently the Yuan (source) points, i.e. the Yuan (source) points and Shu-stream points of Yin meridians are actually the same.

auricular treatment

Thursday, March 31, 2016 Posted by Saravanan V 1 comments
Hi 
Why not? today we will read about auricle (ear acupuncture) :)
Yes. This is Simple But Effective Treatment and also quick response.

The Theory of Auricle

The relationship between the ear and the internal organs was recorded over 2,000 years ago in the Yellow Emperor’s Treatise on Internal Medicine, the Nei Ching. Although ear acupuncture in the treatment of disease has been described in many works since then, it is only in the past two decades that it has come into common use throughout China.

A number of ear points are now considered effective for treating a wide variety of diseases, including obesity and drug addiction. Ear points are also being used for the relief of pain and for surgical analgesia. When disease is present elsewhere in the body, specific areas in the auricle may exhibit tenderness, changes in color, and decreased electrical resistance. Correspondences have been found between these points in the auricle and specific parts of the body. When the ear is viewed in an inverted position, its configuration can be compared to that of a fetus in utero.


Distribution and Location of Ear Points

Helix
The points along the helix are associated with the diaphragm, the lower segment of the rectum, the urethra, the external genitalia, the tonsils, and the apex of the auricle. Some of these points possess antiinflammatory and pain-relieving properties.





Aurical Points
Scaphoid Fossa
These points are associated with parts of the upper extremi­ties, such as fingers, wrist, elbow, clavicle, and shoulder.

Crura Antihelicis Superior
These points are associated with component parts of the lower extremities, such as hip, knee, ankle, heel, and toes.

Crura Antihelicis Inferior
These points are associated with the buttocks, the sciatic nerve, and the sympatheticus.

Antihelix
These points are associated with the cervical, thoracic, and lumbo­sacral vertebrae, the neck, thorax, abdomen, and breasts.

Triangular Fossa
These points are associated with the pelvic organs: the uterus, external genitalia, the upper segment of the rectum, and the urethra. Shen Men is located here, i.e., at the bifurcation of the crura of the antihelix.

Cymba Conchae
These points are associated with the abdominal viscerae: the stomach, kidneys, large and small intestines, bladder, appendix, pancreas, gallbladder, duodenum, spleen, and the liver.

Cavum Conchae
These points are associated with the thoracic viscera; they include points for the heart, lungs, trachea, bronchi, mouth, esophagus, cardia, and upper and lower abdomen (San Chiao point).

Tragus
These points are associated with the nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, adrenals, the external ear, and the apex of the tragus.

Antitragus
These points are associated with the head and include the brain­stem, occiput, vertex, forehead, mandible, parotid gland, subcortex, as well as the testes and ovaries. The brain point (see later) and Ping Chuan (anti­asthma point) are located here.

lncisura Intertragica
These points are associated with the endocrine organs and the eyes.

Auricular Lobule
These points are associated with the face. They include the tongue, palate, maxillary area, cheek, eyes, inner ear, and tonsils.

Retroauricular
Three points here are associated with the upper, middle, and lower back. There are also points in the groove behind the ear; these exert a hypotensive effect.

The Most Commonly Used Ear Points

Sub cortex: This point regulates functional body equilibrium and also exerts a sedative effect.

The Endocrine: This point regulates nervous tension and endocrine equilibrium.

The Adrenals: This point is useful for its anti allergic, anti inflammatory action and can reduce local swelling.. It also has an adrenocorticoid-like action.

San Chiao: This point regulates the functions of the viscera, the blood vessels, and the endocrine organs.

Sympatheticus: This point relieves smooth muscle spasm and decreases glandular secretions. It also has an atropine-like action.

Shen Men: This point has a sedative, analgesic, anti inflammatory and hypnotic action.

Kidney: This point exerts a tonic effect somewhat similar to that of Tsu San Li (1,7,8, ST 36).

Occiput: This point has a sedative, analgesic, and anti inflammatory action.

Principles of Point Selection:

1. According to visceral involvement: 
Ear points for the stomach and spleen are used in the management of stomach pain; heart and small intestine points are used for heart and lung disease; and large intestine points are used for cough.
2. According to local manifestations: 
The shoulder point is used for shoulder pain, the knee point for knee pain, and the stomach point for gastric problems.
3. According to local tenderness:
In such instances, the tender point at the site of tenderness is used. As an example, Lan Wei is used for appendicitis.
4. According to previous experience: 
The adrenal point is used to treat hypertension, and either Shen Men or the occiput point is used to induce analgesia. Ping Chuan is used for asthma; the subcortex point is used for neurological disorders; the endocrine point is used for endocrine disorders; and the sympathetic-us point is used for pain caused by gastrointestinal disorders.

Methods Of Point Selection

By Pressure Locate

The most sensitive or “tender” point by pressing around the selected auricular area with a probe or the blunt end of the acupuncture needle. The affected area is where the patient feels soreness or pain at the touch of the probe. This tender spot is considered to be the reaction point for therapy.

By Skin Appearance

Occasionally, the affected area of the ear may exhibit physical changes such as discoloration, excoriation, small black or red spots, and so on; these may be referred to as puncturing points. This is the least accurate of the three methods of point selection.

Technique

The technique is similar to that described for body acupuncture. When the ear point to be treated is determined, use local sterilization, then insert a thin acupuncture needle, 0.5-1.0 inches in length, 32 gauge, either perpendicularly or obliquely.

The needle should not penetrate through the cartilage of the ear. When it has been inserted, the patient is likely to experience the Teh Chi sensation of local soreness and distension. Use manual or electric stimulation and retain needle in position for at least 15-20 min. In most cases, treatment should be given either once daily or every other day.
Great care should be exercised when treating pregnant women. 

Ear acupuncture is contraindicated when frostbite or inflammation is present in the ear.
It is usual to select points on the same side as the disease to be treated. However, the opposite side may also be treated either simultaneously or alternately.

influential points

Thursday, March 3, 2016 Posted by Saravanan V 0 comments
Hi,

Today we will read about Influential Points. why mostly acupuncturist using this points? because these 8 points will stimulate particular tissue and cure the disease.




They are closely associated with the physiological functions of the above mentioned systems or structures, and thus are often used to treat relevant conditions, in particular for those of a chronic and for those in weakened states.

Cv 17 or Ren17 :  chest oppression, shortness of breath, hiccup, wheeze, belching, vomiting and depressed mood.




Bl 11 or UB 11 : Bone pain especially in the neck, shoulder, back and limbs




Bl 17 or UB 17 :  spitting blood, nasal bleeding, coughing blood, blood in the stools and urine, excessive menses and anemia; also for traumatic injuries and blood stasis conditions







Cv 12 or Ren 12 :  stomach and large intestine conditions






Lr 13 or LIV 13 : liver and spleen conditions






Lu 9 :  abnormal pulse, vascular inflammation and arteriosclerosis (blood veins)







Gb 34: paralysis of one side of the body, shoulder and arm pain, muscular spasm and weakness, limb atrophy and numbness. 







Gb 39 : Paralysis in the lower limbs, limb weakness and atrophy, anemia and painful conditions. (mostly using for Bone marrow)


Note: acupuncture trainee don't use needles. only gentle press for ren17, ub11, ub17, ren12, liv13, lu9. only use needles for gb34 and 39. 

Thanks.

Start jogging again

Wednesday, February 3, 2016 Posted by Saravanan V 0 comments
Hi. today im writing about 8 ways to "Start jogging again" topic.


When you’re on fire, you know it.
Running is all you can think about. Your workouts are hard, but they’re the best part of your day.
After each one, you feel unstoppable, and you can’t wait until tomorrow, so you can do it all again.

But when running is hard, it’s really hard. It feels forced, and you know deep down that even if it looks like you’re running, you’re really just going through the motions.

And though you give yourself a pat on the back after you get out there and grind out a workout, you can’t help but remember all the times when you didn’t need to play cheerleader — when you ran because running was all you wanted to do.

A few months on, a few months off, never really feeling that drive and passion that I did before when I was training to qualify for Boston and to run ultra distances for the first time. I’ve managed to run a few marathons and a 50K during this time, but the spark you feel when everything’s clicking just hasn’t been there.

Until recently, that is. I can’t say I’m fully back yet — running is still something I have to make time for, instead of it being the one thing that everything else takes a back seat to. But for the first time, I’m close enough to being back to my old form that I feel comfortable writing about how to get there.

If you’re having trouble getting yourself to run, no matter if it’s because of the winter weather or it’s inside your head, I know the feeling. Here’s what I did to finally get out of it; I hope you find it useful.

1. Have a goal that’s bigger than any one race.

There’s something to be said for living in the moment — savoring the joy of achieving one goal before you look ahead to the next.

But so many times now, I’ve made the mistake of finishing a race and then finding myself goal-less when it comes to running. This mistake never fails to result in a period of prolonged laziness.

I’m not saying that as soon as you cross the finish line of your half marathon, you need to start training for the next. What I suggest, instead, is that you have a bigger, longer-term goal to do the work of keeping you motivated.

So maybe your long term goal is to run a marathon. When you finish your half, go ahead and celebrate it with a massive champagne battle in a locker room covered in plastic wrap … but because you know your half was just a stepping stone to the bigger goal of a full, you won’t be tempted to take three weeks off.

Which easily becomes three months. Trust me, I’ve done it.


2. Run less.

It’s pretty cool that as you get stronger at running, you can run distances that used to seem crazy.

There was a period where I was running enough that the 7-mile trail near my house became my everyday run. It took around an hour, it was easy and peaceful, and I enjoyed it. And best of all, I was running 7 miles a day — I thought that was pretty badass!

But when my motivation fell, those 7 miles became my downfall. When I thought, “I really should run today,” what I would picture was that hilly, lonely, 7-mile run. Anything less seemed like a copout, and hardly worth it.

You know what got me out of the funk? When I allowed myself to just run for 20 minutes.
It’s so easy to get outside for 20 minutes. Instead of the long, slow hour, you find the urge to work in a few speed intervals, or a couple hard hills, because hey, you’ll be done in 20 minutes!

And by the time you’re out there for 20 minutes, you’re just hitting your stride. There aren’t a lot of times when I’d call running “fun,” but the end of a 20-minute run is most definitely one of them. You can either come in then, excited to do it again tomorrow, or ride the wave and stay out longer.

3. Track it.

I wrote a post a few weeks ago about the importance of tracking your results. Running is no exception — tracking helps reinforce the habit, especially when you’re trying to get back into it.

An interesting method of tracking I learned in a Zen Habits mini-course I’m taking is that of simply marking down a “1” when you run, and a “0” when you don’t. It’s a lot less intimidating to put together a string of 1’s than it is to have to write down every detail of every workout, especially when I’d be writing down paces that I would have scoffed at when I was in peak shape a few years ago.

Meticulous tracking has its place, sure, but if writing down “1 mile warmup, 8 X 400m at 1:30, 1 mile cooldown” isn’t doing it for you right now, try 1’s and 0’s.


4. Do something else.

If you’re not feeling the motivation to run, that doesn’t mean you have to let yourself get out of shape. I used my lack of excitement about running to do a weight-gaining experiment, and really enjoyed getting back into the gym again. I even took a few Parkour lessons.

And, as you can probably imagine, once you start seeing results in another area, it makes you want to run again. Instead of feeling totally lazy and weak, you get a lot of those same feelings running gives you. And that, of course, makes you feel like running again.

5. Change something about your running.

Running gets stale when it’s always the same. Much more than the physical difficulty of running, I think the fear of boredom is what made it so hard for me to get out the door.

So what can you change? Start with your route. Then your playlist. Your workouts. Your shoes.

Gee, I could list about 63 things you could try…

6. Train with a friend.

You always hear that it’s great to work out with a partner. They’ll keep you accountable, so the advice goes.

If you’re an introvert like I am, you’ve probably brushed it off and said to yourself, “That’s not for me; I motivate myself just fine, thanks.”

But if your running has stalled, like mine did, I suggest you make an exception. A large part of why I’m back to loving running is that I started running with a friend, and we’ve done a long run almost every weekend throughout the fall and winter.

On weeks when I didn’t do an ounce of running besides that, the 10 or 15 miles on the weekend kept me from getting so out of running shape that starting again became overwhelming.

7. Change what running means to you.

When running came easy to you, it was because it meant something important.

Maybe that was a huge goal of losing weight, and now you’ve lost it. Or maybe it was running a certain distance, and now you’ve done it.

If it isn’t going so well now, look at what running means to you. If it still means weight loss, and weight loss doesn’t motivate you anymore, you need to find another reason to run.

Instead of the old motivator, make it about breaking 20 minutes in a 5K. Or being able to run an ultra. Or being in shape to keep up with your kids.

Or make it about something that has nothing to do with fitness — make running your uninterrupted time each day to meditate, or to brainstorm, or to spend 15 minutes thinking of everything in your life that you’re grateful for.

When you see in it in a new light, it’s amazing how completely different you feel, even during the run itself.

8. Give yourself a (real) break.

I have some news that will come as a shock to many people. It is blasphemous, and definitely NSFW. If you have small children, you might want to ask them to leave the room. Ready?

It’s okay not to run.

Running means a lot to you, and it’s a big part of who you are. But that doesn’t mean you can’t take a month off and still be you.

But here’s the catch — you can’t look back over the past few months and say, “I sucked at running this winter; I hardly did it at all. Therefore, I took a break, and now I’m ready to start again.”

Nope. If you really are in a rut, your break needs to be deliberate, and if the whole time you’re thinking that you should be running, then the break doesn’t count. When you take a break, it’s for your mind, not just your body.

So take a real break, for a week or a month, and come back to running with a fresh perspective. Just make sure you schedule the end of your break in advance, though; that Xbox can be awfully seductive. (Kids these days still “do the Xbox machine,” right?)

Small steps

The more I learn about what it takes to make habits last (a recent interest of mine), the more I realize it’s about starting small, more than anything else.

Do the tiniest act possible — even 5 minutes — to get started, and be satisfied to simply repeat that act over and over until you feel like doing more. Each time you do it, you’ll be grooving the habit deeper — and when you restrain yourself from doing too much too fast, you actually increase your desire to do it again.

The weather’s warming up, so soon that excuse to avoid running will be out the window. Do what you need to do to get back to your old self now, and come spring you’ll be happy that, one day at the end of February, you decided to get outside and just run for 5, 10, or 20 minutes.
