LIFE QUALITY ; LET STRESS DIE WITH GOOD SLEEP, NUTRITION, SPORTS & EXERCISES
The economic crises has swept not only the financial commitments of the people but has also gifted the swallow of sorrows. From the very ancient times, there is a big connection between the feelings and sleep. The more relaxed you are the more sleep you can earn is the basic thumb rule. If you see the industrial growth of last some month, it has developed drastically in the downside and see the stress growth it has crossed all the borders and probably all time high of many years.
This is a point of view, different in our times , like doing exercises means all that people can develop and work out for having a good healthy life .
For instance, it reduces the risk of developing dementia.Furthermore, anecdotal evidence suggests that frequent exercise may reverse alcohol-induced brain damage
Sport is an activity that is governed by a set of rules or customs and often engaged in competitively.
As stress from economic anxiety mounts, the Better Sleep Council (BSC) and the Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN) have joined forces for Better Sleep Month in May to help consumers enjoy a stress-less, good night’s sleep. In order to get the best rest possible and help relieve stress, the BSC and CRN say it’s essential for Americans to make a commitment to a healthy lifestyle.
Stress is a leading culprit that is robbing Americans of sleep, according to sleep researchers. While it is well known that stress can negatively impact sleep, new research from Oklahoma State University (OSU) confirms that cyclically poor sleep can elevate stress.
The OSU study, “Back Pain, Sleep Quality and Perceived Stress Following Introduction of New Bedding Systems,” published in the March 2009 Journal of Chiropractic Medicine, also suggests that improved sleep quality not only reduces stress, but also helps us manage everyday stress.
“When you’re stressed, and similarly when you are tired, every aspect of your waking life is affected, from work to personal relationships and even concentration,” says BSC spokesperson and lifestyle expert Lisa Coffey. “Controlling stress and getting a good night’s rest start by evaluating your lifestyle and creating a healthy daily regimen that you can stick to. This includes adequate sleep, balanced diet, daily vitamins and healthy exercise.”

The Sleep Escape
The OSU study also reveals that the mattress plays a critical role in the sleep-stress relationship and quality of sleep. In fact, the OSU study found that significant decreases in stress paralleled reports of a good night’s sleep on a new mattress, compared to one that is five years or older.

“People across the country are facing hardships from job losses and money woes,” adds Coffey. “A mattress that cradles you with comfort can go a long way to help reduce stress. It provides a good night’s rest so that you can perform your best during the day, even in tough times.”
The BSC advises consumers to take time during Better Sleep Month to evaluate their mattress for optimum comfort and support and consider replacing it every five to seven years.

Investing in Your Wellness
Getting a good night’s sleep on a supportive mattress is just one part of investing in a healthy lifestyle. Being active and eating healthy also play a large role. And with healthcare costs and unemployment rates increasing, CRN says that now, more than ever, it’s important to think about taking an integrative approach to preventive healthcare.
“Studies show that healthy individuals tend to engage in many healthy habits-eating a healthy diet, taking supplements, exercising regularly and getting adequate amounts of sleep-as an integrative approach to wellness,” says Douglas MacKay, N.D., vice president, scientific and regulatory affairs, CRN. Dr. MacKay, a licensed naturopathic doctor, says certain supplements, including melatonin, magnesium and calcium, may help individuals relax or promote healthy sleep patterns.

Herbals and other dietary supplements can be safe and effective ways to help individuals achieve quality sleep,” says Dr. MacKay. “You should consult a doctor or healthcare professional to determine which supplements are the best regimens for your lifestyle.”Getting a good night’s sleep on a supportive mattress is just one part of investing in a healthy lifestyle.

How important is doing SPORTS than exercises ?
This is a point of view, different in our times , like doing exercises means all that people can develop and work out for having a good healthy life .
But , there is a big difference when people can practise SPORTS , no matter how talent they are , but this implies many other aspects, that are significant : entertainment, socializing in groups not individual , different rutines, concentration , brain works in different way , play as game not as a rutine or like a hard work and the diversity of sports allows to open different skills and explore more about the insight and outsight of oneself , generating psicological effects that reduce the stress if it is taken as an entertainment .
Exercise is physical activity that is planned, structured, and repetitive for the purpose of conditioning any part of the body. Exercise is utilized to improve health, maintain fitness and is important as a means of physical rehabilitation.
Physical exercise is any bodily activity that enhances or maintains physical fitness and overall health. It is performed for many different reasons. These include strengthening muscles and the cardiovascular system, honing athletic skills, weight loss or maintenance and for enjoyment. Frequent and regular physical exercise boosts the immune system, and helps prevent the "diseases of affluence" such as heart disease, cardiovascular disease, Type 2 diabetes and obesity.It also improves mental health and helps prevent depression. Childhood obesity is a growing global concern and physical exercise may help decrease the effects of childhood obesity in developed countries.
Physical exercise is important for maintaining physical fitness and can contribute positively to maintaining a healthy weight, building and maintaining healthy bone density, muscle strength, and joint mobility, promoting physiological well-being, reducing surgical risks, and strengthening the immune system.
Exercise also reduces levels of cortisol, thereby benefiting health. Cortisol is a stress hormone that builds fat in the abdominal region, making weight loss difficult. Cortisol causes many health problems, both physical and mental.
Frequent and regular aerobic exercise has been shown to help prevent or treat serious and life-threatening chronic conditions such as high blood pressure, obesity, heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, insomnia, and depression.

Strength training appears to have continuous energy-burning effects that persist for about 24 hours after the training, though they do not offer the same cardiovascular benefits as aerobic exercises do.
There is conflicting evidence as to whether vigorous exercise (more than 70% of VO2 Max) is more or less beneficial than moderate exercise (40 to 70% of VO2 Max). Some studies have shown that vigorous exercise executed by healthy individuals can effectively increase opioid peptides (a.k.a. endorphins, naturally occurring opioids that in conjunction with other neurotransmitters are responsible for exercise-induced euphoria and have been shown to be addictive), positively influence hormone production (i.e., increase testosterone and growth hormone benefits that are not as fully realized with moderate exercise.
Exercise has been shown to improve cognitive functioning via improvement of hippocampus-dependent spatial learning, and enhancement of synaptic plasticity and neurogenesis
In addition, physical activity has been shown to be neuroprotective in many neurodegenerative and neuromuscular diseases
For instance, it reduces the risk of developing dementia.Furthermore, anecdotal evidence suggests that frequent exercise may reverse alcohol-induced brain damage
Physical activity is thought to have other beneficial effects related to cognition as it increases levels of nerve growth factors, which support the survival and growth of a number of neuronal cells.
Both aerobic and anaerobic exercise also work to increase the mechanical efficiency of the heart by increasing cardiac volume (aerobic exercise), or myocardial thickness (strength training). Such changes are generally beneficial and healthy if they occur in response to exercise.

Sport is an activity that is governed by a set of rules or customs and often engaged in competitively.
Sports commonly refer to activities where the physical capabilities of the competitor are the sole or primary determinant of the outcome (winning or losing), but the term is also used to include activities such as mind sports (a common name for some card games and board games with little to no element of chance) and motor sports where mental acuity or equipment quality are major factors. Sport is commonly defined as an organized, competitive and skillful physical activity requiring commitment and fair play. Some view sports as differing from games based on the fact that there are usually higher levels of organization and profit (not always monetary) involved in sports.
This genetic variation in improvement from training is one of the key physiological differences between elite athletes and the larger population.
The term sports is sometimes extended to encompass all competitive activities in which offense and defense are played, regardless of the level of physical activity. Both games of skill and motor sport exhibit many of the characteristics of physical sports, such as skill, sportsmanship, and at the highest levels, even professional sponsorship associated with physical sports.
Sports that are subjectively judged are distinct from other judged activities such as beauty pageants and bodybuilding shows, because in the former the activity performed is the primary focus of evaluation, rather than the physical attributes of the contestant as in the latter (although "presentation" or "presence" may also be judged in both activities).
Sports are most often played just for fun or for the simple fact that people need exercise to stay in good physical condition.
