Mind-Body Harmony
We call this Light of Life Longevity® Exercises and this is not an exaggeration. These exercises have the advantage of really helping people move and adjust their energy in a proper way to enhance health and promote well being. In today’s world there are many physical activities one may engage in for health. But longevity cannot be attained only from physical movement. Of course it has relevance, but there are other elements pertinent to having a longer and healthier life. Whether it is sports or dance, just because there is physical exertion or required levels of specialized skill, does not necessarily mean it benefits the body in terms of health and well being. Some activities may strengthen one’s physical structure and musculature, but they do not have the ability to address the relationships in terms of the physical, mental, emotional and energetic harmony.
Light of Life Longevity® Exercises is an interrelated and unified system for Body and Mind Harmony. Rooted in The Light of Life® matrix, these exercises contain an energetic component that not only provide the benefits that come along with physical activities. They are also therapeutic and restorative as it addresses the deeper multidimensional energetic needs.
Light of Life Longevity® Exercises is a natural discipline. Through movements and postures these exercises engage the body through relaxation and the dynamics of subtle energy. Natural movements are relaxed and not rigid. Without creating undo stress to the body, flexibility, fluidity and balance is restored, providing not only levels of physical renewal, but also, this translates to one’s emotional and mental development as well. All of our physical gestures are always mind and body and the Longevity Exercises are grounded on this basic premise, thus enabling harmony and integration within them.
The Cellular Rejuvenation effects depend on each individual and how receptive they are to tap into this resource for themselves. Whether it is physical, mental or emotional inclinations, and the time in one’s life, the results differ from person to person. Even one who has limited physical abilities or is infirm, just by being immersed in this particular energy they will reap the benefits and regenerative effects.
Another wonderful attribute of this system of exercises is its convenience. They do not require much space and they can be practiced anywhere. Without the rigors of complicated routines or equipments, these exercises are not exhausting yet able to promote many levels of renewal and self-healing. Just by practicing a few exercises a day, one will gain benefits right from the start. One does not need to acquire any particular level of physical proficiency in order to begin benefiting from these Longevity Exercises because of its unique energetics.
The refrain “less is more” is quite true. This is a complete system. There are no additional exercises or advanced levels. Though the exercises are not really that difficult in appearance, it takes time to gradually learn the subtle nuances that produce the many benefits. And with these few exercises, if you spend the time and care to develop and “see” their subtle multidimensional nature you don’t constantly need new fangled things.
With any physical activity it is a matter of practice; practice to wear down resistance, physical and otherwise. Often it is not so much one’s lack of ability or flexibility on a physical level; it is mostly mental and emotional. It is really getting past your own resistance, wherever it may be coming from and being able to “see” yourself from an internal point of view. Being attentive and aware of the subtler qualities that will help one reach new levels. And, this resultant humility translates positively into everything you do.
Behind every activity there are many subtle aspects that are not apparent right away to an observer or beginner. Take gardening for example. To be able to grow something, it looks easy to simply put something in the ground and watch it grow. But it’s not that easy. There are those who understand the soil, weather, when to plant and water and know intuitively the many different qualities involved to cultivate something and make it bloom.
So it is not so much in “perfecting” the exercises, because there is no such thing. It is about developing a degree of proficiency that brings the benefits that come over time, through diligence, practice and experience. You get what you put into it, and again, this is true of every activity in your life. There are many levels of understanding in these few exercises, which can produce positive fundamental changes and, often, benefits which cannot be measured. There are multiple benefits that accrue to you which are individual in nature.
When you take the time and put the effort into integrating these exercises, they become part of your whole being and provide an understanding beyond the surface level. And this is Knowledge. More than just information, Knowledge comes by understanding and experience. Information can be bought and sold instantly, but “Knowledge must be claimed.” You have to travel the distance.
I encourage people to find work and engage in activities that they enjoy, and to realize and express their creativity. Activities that is also conducive to making positive relationships withfriends, family and loved ones, these are essential elements of longevity too. Light of Life Longevity® Exercises is integrated energetically and physically to enhance all aspects of your life. It crosses generational boundaries, so the whole family can practice together to engender communication and cohesiveness.
As with all The Light of Life® processes, I present these Longevity Exercises in its original purity, as a natural and rational resource, free of philosophical intrusion or dogma. Light of Life Longevity Exercises is something that enables you to truly help yourself and derive benefits for a lifetime.
