These 3 disciplines will allow you to achieve peak mental and physical levels within days
Meditation
Meditation can have profound effects on your mental and physical well-being. Meditation reduces stress, controls anxiety, promotes emotional and mental health, improves sleep, prevents neuro-degenerative diseases and illness. Meditation also reduces symptoms of stress-related conditions, including irritable bowel syndrome, post-traumatic stress disorder and fibromyalgia just to name a few.
Practice meditation early in the morning to get the most out of your session. When you meditate early each morning your mind will prioritize and categorize the plans and activities you have upcoming throughout the day (in turn helping you becoming more productive). Use careful breathing techniques and/or recite a mantra. Meditation can be done at any time of the day. For best results, clear your mind of any thoughts and just be. Focus on breathing and relaxation. Try it out for a couple of minutes to start, gradually increase to 15-30 minutes, then 45 minutes and once you are ready try and aim for a full hour!
Yoga
As with meditation, yoga too can provide many benefits to your overall well-being. Daily practitioners of yoga find themselves having better posture, overall strength (bone and muscle), better immunity, lower blood pressure, elevated moods and the list goes on. Yoga can be practiced at any time during the day, however it is best when performed in the evening after work once you have time to de-stress and relax. When used in combination with meditation, the benefits of yoga are increased several fold.
Cryotherapy
