Ok guys here is the first of a series I will post over here. I will start the boring stuff first, yet some of the most vital stuff we really ignore.

The first three basic needs we have are:

1. Air
2. Water
3. Light

1. Air ( Oxygen )

Somehow we miss the importance of breathing. We spend so much time worrying and therefore not breathing. We starve our brains of oxygen and even though we think that the air is polluted outside, the air is more clean than an indoor room, with or without air conditioning. People suffer more from house dust and allergic reactions causing sinusitus and with a blocked nose you are guaranteed bad circulation, irritability, poor erection and poor concentration. The brain uses 70 percent of all the air you breath to maintain its health. Getting outdoors is vital for your health. Even meditation helps teach you breath properly.

2. Water

Pure water is vital. If you are the one to grab a coke more than once or twice a week off the shelf then you are suffering with mood or weight problems. Try bottled water. I buy 5 litres at a time and it costs me R4 to refill the bottle every time. I drink a lot more water since I have started drinking purified water. Drinking water at the correct time maximizes its effectiveness on the Human body:

2 glasses of water after waking up
- helps activate internal organs
1 glass of water 30 minutes before a meal
- helps digestion
1 glass of water before taking a bath
helps lower blood pressure
1 glass of water before going to bed
- avoids stroke or heart attack

3. Light

We underestimate the power of sunlight and when we go outdoors we are permanently wearing sunglasses. All of us need sunlight to prevent joint diseases and to stimulate vitamin D. Recent studies show that the most important way of stimulating Melatonin ( A hormone that helps you sleep ) is sunlight entering the eyes. Notice how well you sleep after a day working outside in the sun. People who get little sunlight don’t sleep well or hardly sleep at all. Never use a sunblock with a factor higher than 15 or you are taking an artificial substance that
will cause blotches on the skin. If you are outdoors often, take a green food like Barley Green or Spirulina to keep the skin protected.
We will discuss the importance of green vegetables in a later chapter.
