Book Signing with Steve! You Can Attract It, Saturday April 10th at 2pm. Barnes and Noble Ogelthorpe Mall, Savannah GA. Click here for directions.

Try to stretch on as many days a week as you can. The more regularly you stretch the more likely you are to avoid tight muscles, feel better and prevent injuries. But, if your muscles are tight, be patient, it will take some time to gradually restore the muscles to their normal lengths.

Stretching throughout your life, whether to perform better at running/jogging/marathons or to just feel better can reduce the effects of the aging process by reducing natural wear and tear on joints and muscles. Studies have shown that flexibility can be maintained and even restored to some degree through a well-designed stretching program that is implemented gradually and followed regularly.

Remember, stretching is not a contest, you shouldn't compare yourself with others, because we all are different. And sometimes you can be really limber on one day and feel a little tighter the next. Stretch comfortably, within your limits, and you will begin to feel the flow of energy that comes from proper stretching.

As it starts to get warmer outside (at least in this part of the World) many people find themselves wanting to be outside more. During this time of the year many people get the motivation to begin a running program whether for added exercise, weight loss, or to train for a running event.

Running has many benefits. It adds cardiovascular strength. Running can help regulate blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Running or jogging also helps you to lose weight. Running isn’t necessarily for everyone because it is high impact on your joints, but it does have many benefits.

If you are interested in getting outside and running more often, I encourage you to do so. And if you need an extra motivator, you can look into different options such as finding a running buddy, developing a training program, or getting hypnotherapy. All these will help you feel motivated and will encourage you to stick with running.

Here is a sample of the script used in this recording:

Running/Jogging/Marathon

And when you are running you are very focused, very focused. You are aware of what is going on around you and you are very focused, focusing on finishing. And you realize that you finish in a very calm mind. In your mind, every step along the way is as if you have already reached the finish line. Even during those times when you are simply running for pleasure it is as if you have already completed the run because you understand that for you running is easy and effortless. It is natural for you to run. So in your mind, you have already finished. You just allow a little time for your body to catch up, that’s right. In your mind, if you are racing, you have already won the race. It’s only a matter of time until your body catches up. Allows everyone else to see this. Running for you is very easy. You enjoy running. You love running. You love jogging. And you love preparing for any race you may be a part of. If for example, you are preparing for a marathon, you are very focused in your preparation. Allowing your body to rest, allowing your body to work hard, allowing your body to rest. You are in tune with what your body needs; you listen to your body. Your body responds to your desire to run faster, to run more calmly, to win if you are in a race. Whatever kind of running you are involved in whether running for pleasure or running a marathon or running a race of any distance. You are very focused in your preparation. You stretch appropriately beforehand and you reward yourself for winning if you are in a race. You reward yourself by allowing your body to relax, by giving your body proper nutrition. You always give your body proper nutrition. You always allow your body to rest when it needs to and then when you run, your body is able to produce the results you desire. Imagine yourself running now, that’s right. Imagine yourself running and understand that current research shows that even when you imagine yourself doing something your body reacts to your imagination in a physiological way. Therefore, you can imagine yourself running and derive a certain amount, a certain predictable quantity from just imagining yourself running. So when you relax, you imagine yourself running and your body reacts physiologically and this helps to keep you in the zone. This helps to keep you focused. This actually helps to keep you fit because when you imagine yourself running, your body stimulates those muscles, that’s right. So even as you relax you can imagine yourself running and derive a certain measurable and predictable amount of benefit. So when you imagine yourself running, imagine yourself running perfectly, having the endurance you need, having the stamina, having the will-power, that’s right, having the focus, having the focus, that’s right. You are focused on finishing and as you run it is as if you have already finished. You understand that you will win. You will finish in the amount of time that you want to finish in. And then you allow your body to make this happen. Running for you is fun. Exercising is fun. Winning is fun. You enjoy running. So relax now, relax as you imagine yourself running, relax, because running is so very relaxing.
