Zone-Tone method? Here is a way to compound your efforts with little or no additional time expenditure.
Remember what you did during your meditation and visualization sessions as you focused on relaxing each and every muscle in your body starting with the feet? Well, at this time you have an invaluable opportunity to implement the Zone-Tone method.
I MPLEMENTATION
Starting with the feet, as you begin to relax and focus upon your toes, slightly wiggle each toe and concentrate on feeling the slightest movement in each individual toe.
You might feel a strange tingling sensation as you may never have stopped to pay attention to the feeling of these individual parts of your body. You might wonder why we would waste time focusing on the feet first, right? We want to do this so that you become completely familiar and in sync with each and every part of your body. This will eventually give you the ability to isolate any muscle you desire at will. It is very important to remember and focus upon each and every part of your body without neglecting any specific part! As you move on from the feet towards your knees and up, zone in on every body part along the way. Now here’s where it can get tricky, so pay attention . Simply focusing on the individual muscles of the body is not enough. When you simply think about them you cannot truly get a feel for how they feel when they are in action. To help you hone in and experience the feel for each of these muscles you should do the following:
• As you get to each individual body part, stop and contract the muscle as best as you know how. Do this three to five times and then relax.
• Remember the exact area where you felt that muscle contract and now focus all of your attention and energy on relaxing that same area. Do you realize what you will be accomplishing here? You are giving yourself an amazing ability to become in complete control of your entire superficial muscular system and will have the opportunity to call upon their action for maximum muscular efficiency.
Here is yet another technique you should use to further enhance the effects of the Zone-Tone method:
After you complete each set of an exercise, stand in the mirror and flex the muscles that you were exercising as hard as you can and hold for a count of 3-5 seconds. What will this do for you? It will help you to create a stronger mind-to-muscle connection and help you to accuratelyidentify and call upon those individual muscles during exercise.
We can’t tell you enough how important it is to practice the Zone-Tone method both when you’re working out and also while at rest. As with anything, the more you practice the Zone-Tone method the quicker and more powerful the method will become. Soon you will realize, firsthand, the astonishing results gained from this powerful concept. Good luck!
LIFE’S DILEMMAS, SIMPLE SOLUTIONS; SOME PEOPLE MAKE EXCUSES, OTHERS FIND SOLUTIONS
In life we are bound to face adversity or dilemmas at one time or another. When this happens the key is to not freeze up. This is the problem many people have. Instead of doing something about their problems, they dwell upon them, feel sorry for themselves, and let the problems overtake them. In order to be successful at anything in life, instead of accepting adversity, combat it! Instead of finding a reason to be sad about a problem, find solutions for the problem! By finding solutions, you never give in to failure. You never admit defeat, and therefore are never defeated. It is only when you admit and give in to failure that you become a failure. The most successful people in the world have learned this philosophy and adapt it to their lives on a daily basis. Finding a solution to a problem is not as hard as it seems. You must use your imagination in order to achieve solutions. You must be willing to do what most people are not willing to do. Namely, you must create solutions by using your God-given talents. Brainstorming is one such talent, in
