1. Pain helps you grow What doesn’t kill you – makes you stronger. The old saying encapsulates this truth but forgets to mention one thing; To be able to overcome pain, you must embrace it and allow it to pass over you. If you try to ignore the pain, you’ll end up losing a part of yourself, a part that is very difficult to reconnect with later. Accept the hardship, explore your pain, and once the waves of sadness die down, you will be given a new lease on life. 2. Fears are an illusion Fears will only get stronger if you let it. You are always in control of your fear, so don’t let it control you back. Fear can serve you, by keeping you alert in dangerous situations, but unless physical harm may come to you or your loved ones – you must let fear know who’s boss. 3. Nothing lasts forever Love, pain, troubles, success – it is all transitory. Take joy in the good times, and accept the bad times, for they, too, shall pass. 4. Struggles are nothing more than steps on the

1. Gradual Progress The key to building running stamina without facing the risks of injury and/or burnout is to “train smart”—it’s all about adapting the gradual approach principle. In fact,  if you are looking for one overreaching principle of stamina building, then look no further than the “Gradual Progress” rule. This smart training approach entails that you must aim to slowly and steadily increase mileage and speed while being consistent, patient the entire time. That’s it. That’s the essence of gradual adaptation. This is a universal principle and it applies to all runners, whether you are a beginner trying to make it around the block for the first time, as well as the 80-minute half-marathon runner who’s prepping for his upcoming marathon. Therefore, all of the training guidelines I’m sharing with you below should be approached with this mindset. Otherwise, don’t bother reading on. You will be setting yourself for failure and blame it on me! I’m warning you here.

Before Running: 1. If you eat a large meal before a run, wait at least three hours before you head out. Almost nothing you eat immediately before a run will digest enough to give you energy during your run. If you do have to eat, choose something your system can easily absorb, such as a banana, a few spoonfuls of peanut butter or honey, or a handful of dried fruit. 2. Drink at least 8 oz. of water a half hour before heading out to prevent dehydration. If you're going for longer than a 10K, you might consider taking a water bottle or planning a route that has a water stop along the way. Staying hydrated will keep your legs from cramping, especially in hot weather. 3. You may be tempted to do intense stretching to get warmed up, but try Chi Running Body Looseners instead. Ankle rolls, hip rotations, and knee circles are a few gentle exercises you can do to get your body loose and relaxed without straining cold muscles and joints. See the Chi Running book or DVD for a detailed

1 Remember how much you enjoyed being outside during winter as a kid. Children are less bothered by the cold and more excited about the prospects of getting out there and making the most of snow, rain, and even hail. Winter's weather excites children and enthuses them to make snow angels, sled down hills, and to learn to ski, skate, and snowboard. Follow their lead and become reinvigorated by the fun promised by winter exercising and outdoor play. 2 Realize the health benefits of exercising during winter. Staying cooped up indoors all winter isn't beneficial for your health and can leave you more exposed to illnesses doing the winter rounds. Getting out and about gives you a chance to breathe fresh air, to see new and varied sights (beats  cabin fever ), and gives you a sound mind and body workout. If you suffer from  Seasonal Affective Disorder  (SAD), getting outside and exercising will help to reduce the symptoms by introducing more daylight to your syst

For normal to dry skin Use a cleanser containing aloe vera, cactus and lemon. Aloe vera has the power to restore moisture and has potent healing properties too. It is an anti-oxidant that speeds up the process of cell-renewal. An aloe cleanser helps in softening and removing dead cells, accelerates cell regeneration and delays ageing. Keep the skin moisturised, always During winter, the outer layer of skin becomes very dry therefore it is important to keep the skin moisturised. Even those who have oily skin must use light moisturising lotions after cleansing to keep the skin soft. Use a sunscreen People like to enjoy the sun during winter but little do they know that exposure to the sun can hasten ageing. Therefore, one must use a sunscreen 15 minutes before going out in order to allow the skin to absorb it. If you stay out in the sun for more than 30 minutes, reapply the sunscreen. Skin nourishment Nourish the skin every night if you have normal to dry skin. Apply a skin
