Yoga Nidra helps you maintain your vital life energy, improve your sleep, your mood, and even prevent illness. When you’re struggling with chronic pain, fatigue, or stress of any kind, any little challenge can make you feel like your going to collapse and crumble. It is at this time that you need to reconnect with yourself, your breath, and your environment. Yoga Nidra offers you a way to meet your everyday challenges with poise and balance, while reconnecting you to your authentic self.

In addition to the physical benefits of running, there are also many psychological benefits. The natural release of endorphins responsible for the euphoric “runner’s high,” makes running great for preventing and treating depression and anxiety. Not only that, but running can also help you sleep better and even improve your memory.

Sex and cholesterol
What you may not know, or have not been told is that 80% of cholesterol is mainly produced in the liver and is a direct component of your sex hormones (testosterone, estrogen, progesterone). The major roll of LDL, the “bad” cholesterol, is to transport cholesterol from the liver to the gonads to make your sex hormones.
What do you think happens when you take a statin drug, like Lipitor, to block LDL production? Now you can’t transport cholesterol to the gonads to make sex hormones. Say hello to Erectile Dysfunction!
