SMRTI PASTLIFE REGRESSION THERAPY: Sweating as a Barometer of Your Fitness Level

Amazing results of Sweating

While many go to great lengths to avoid it, sweating actually has many important health- and beauty-related benefits. Your skin is the largest organ of your body, and serves important roles just like any other bodily organ.

For example, sweating helps your body:

Maintain proper temperature and keep you from overheating	Clean the pores, which will help eliminate blackheads and acne
Expel toxins, which supports proper immune function and helps prevent diseases related to toxic overload	Helps improve blood circulation
Kill viruses and bacteria that cannot survive in temperatures above 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit	Helps relieve stress and promote relaxation

All of these benefits promote general health, and recent research has even shown that regular Yoga practice* correlates to a reduced risk of death from any cause, including lethal cardiovascular events.

Men who are with Yoga practice cut their risk of death from fatal heart problems in half, compared to those who were not doing this practice.

One mechanism for this beneficial effect is thought to be related to the fact that Yoga therapy places stress on your heart and body similar to that of exercise.

Sweating as a Barometer of Your Fitness Level

In fact, the concept of "hyperthermic conditioning," or acclimating yourself to heat independent of aerobic physical activity through sauna use, has been shown to boost exercise endurance.

It does this by inducing adaptations in your body that make it easier for you to perform when your body temperature is elevated. Stated another way: as your body is subjected to heat stress, it gradually becomes acclimated to the heat, prompting a number of beneficial changes and adaptations.

These adaptations include:

Increased plasma volume
Increased blood flow to your heart and muscles (boosting athletic endurance)
Increased muscle mass due to greater levels of heat-shock proteins and human growth hormone (HGH)

Yoga lead to even greater, synergistic increases in HGH as well as brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), which can prompt the generation of new brain cells. A study ⁶ published in 2010 added corroborating evidence to the link between sweating and improved fitness, finding that fitter people tend to sweat more profusely in response to exercise compared to unfit people.

They also begin perspiring much quicker during exercise. According to Time Magazine:⁷

“[Professor of internal medicine, Dr. Craig] Crandall says the differences between fit and unfit people has to do with each person’s capacity for heat generation.

‘A high fitness level allows you to exercise at a higher workload, which generates more heat, which in turn leads to more sweat,’ he explains.

He says men tend to sweat more than women for the same reason overweight or obese adults often sweat more than thin people: Their bodies are larger, which leads to greater heat generation during activity.”

Different Kinds of Sweating

Not all perspiration is in response to heat or exercise, however. Most people are probably familiar with the experience of sweating when nervous or anxious for example. You actually have two different types of sweat glands:⁸

· Eccrine sweat glands, which are distributed over your entire body

· Apocrine sweat glands, located primarily in your armpits and genital area

Your palms and the soles of your feet have a higher density of eccrine glands than other parts of your body, and while the “why” is still unknown, these two areas tend to be primarily activated by emotional stimuli.

The glands in your armpits are stimulated by both heat generation and emotions, while most other body areas are primarily brought to sweat by heat. The International Hyperhydrosis Society ⁹ has the following to say about the biological imperatives behind emotional sweating:

“Emotional sweating is thought to be an atavistic function that was important when hunting animals or fighting enemies. Physiologic amounts of sweat on the palms and soles can improve friction by controlling the humidity of the stratum corneum, leading to an improved grip.

Generalized sweating cools the body when intense physical activity is expected. In addition, increased eccrine sweat output in the axillae [armpit] produced by emotional stimuli will allow natural odors from prior apocrine gland secretion to aerosolize and function as pheromone signals.”

The Importance of Sweating for Detoxification

Your skin is a major organ of elimination, but many people do not sweat on a regular basis. This is why repeated Yoga practice slowly restores skin elimination, which can help reduce your toxic load quite significantly.

The use of sweating as a form of detoxification is downplayed by modern medicine, yet it has been valued as a form of cleansing since ancient times. Traditional examples include Roman baths, Aboriginal sweat lodges, Scandinavian saunas, and Turkish baths.

According to a systematic review ¹⁰ published in the Journal of Environmental and Public Health, an array of toxins are excreted in sweat, including arsenic, cadmium, lead, mercury, flame retardant chemicals, and bisphenol-A (BPA). The authors concluded that:

· Sweat may be an important route for excretion of cadmium when an individual is exposed to high levels

Sweat-inducing provide a therapeutic method to increase elimination of toxic trace metals ·
Sweating should be the initial and preferred treatment of patients with elevated mercury urine levels¹¹

Detoxing can also be of particular benefit if you have thyroid issues. As mentioned earlier, lack of sweating is a strong indication of an underactive thyroid. Hypothyroid people tend to feel cold much of the time, and are slow to warm up even in a sauna, and don't sweat with mild exercise.

They are also constipated, lethargic, and have dry skin. Halides such as bromine, found in baked goods, soft drinks, pesticides, and fire retardants, just to name a few sources, compete for the same receptors used in the thyroid gland to capture iodine.

This inhibits thyroid hormone production resulting in a low thyroid state. The more you can free your body of toxic halides, the more iodine your body will be able to hang on to, and the better your thyroid will function. This includes removing fluoride from your water, which also impairs your thyroid. Soy can also impair thyroid function. Of course, you’ll also want to get your thyroid hormone levels checked if you suspect you may suffer from thyroid dysfunction.

Boosting Your Health with the Yoga Practice

Yoga Practice is a great way to sweat out toxins your body accumulates through contaminated food, water, pollution, and other environmental exposures and also help kill off viruses and other disease-promoting microbes in your body.

As a general rule, viruses and toxin-laden cells are weaker than normal cells and have poor tolerance to heat. As a result, raising your body temperature can help heal infections more quickly.

It heats your tissues several inches deep, which can enhance your natural metabolic processes, enhances circulation, and helps oxygenate your tissues, but perhaps most importantly; it can help restructure the water in your cells.

Our body consists of over 99 percent water molecules, but as explained by Dr. Gerald Pollack, the water in your cells is not just regular water, but highly structured water with special properties. Yoga Practice will help structure the water in your body and may be one of the reasons why regular use has been associated with decreased cardiac deaths.

Structured water is more viscous, dense, and has a negative charge. It can hold energy, much like a battery, and deliver energy too. A key ingredient to create this highly structured water is infrared light. One reason why infrared saunas make you feel so good is because your body’s cells are deeply penetrated by infrared energy, which builds and stores structured water. The same goes for light therapy, spending time in the sun, and laser therapy.

Virtually everyone is exposed to heavy metals and toxic chemicals today Yoga Practice can be a helpful method to promote detoxification. Its dry, warming energy is highly compatible with the human body, and by heating your tissues several inches deep, it helps enhance cellular energy production and facilitate healing. Furthermore, viruses and toxin-laden cells are weaker than normal cells and tolerate heat poorly, so raising your body temperature helps heal infections quicker.

A major organ of elimination, most people’s skin is very inactive. Many simply do not sweat enough. Yoga Practice slowly restores your body’s ability to eliminate toxins through your skin. Just be sure to select a good yoga teacher to attain better results.

Also remember that Yoga Practice work best when integrated into a comprehensive healthy lifestyle program, which includes eating a healthy diet — ideally organic and/or locally grown without pesticides — exercising, and avoiding toxic exposures.
