Every newborn child is incredibly flexible. Even at the advanced ages of one, two and four years of age most kids are still very limber. Then all of a sudden everything begins to stiffen and get tight.
Once most people hit their teens their muscles and joints have quite of bit of rigor mortis. And once you hit your 20’s and 30’s several areas of the body feel like they’re ready for the scrap heap.
So if you’re already beyond the age of 40 can you reverse this inflexibility?
Can you unwind your muscles, joints, tendons, and be born again? Yes you can. And as your body becomes more flexible so does your mind. There’s a reason why young children under the age of four test as highly creative and a few years later seem to have lost it. As the body goes so does the mind. And vice versa. So how do we become inflexible? Here are five ways:
1. We sit too long.
2. We eat too many toxic foods.
3. We swallow emotional difficulties and these get stored in the tissues.
4. We get injured and never learn how to remove the trauma from the tissues.
5. We do long distance cardiovascular exercise.
There are many other things we do that can cause inflexibility, but this list of five covers a lot. Take number 1, for example. If instead of sitting for hours at a time every single day, you got up from your chair and stretched for one minute, think what that can do for your lower back. Your lower back is so vitally important to your health and when it becomes stiff, painful and inflexible, your energy is short-circuited.
Having a loose, limber and flexible spine keeps you swimming in the fountain pool in youth. In my Combat Stretching program, I cover back flexibility like no one else. Many people think flexibility is all about doing the splits. Although doing the splits is an admirable achievement, the circuit breaker is not turned on from this stretch.
Knowing how to stretch your spine from your coccyx to your occiput is a hallmark of youth. Make sure you’re stretching your spine on a daily basis if you want to live life with gusto and enthusiasm. Order Combat Stretching today and find out how.
Best,
