Get Some Fresh Air and Breathe Better..!

I woke up very early this morning, and my apartment in NYC was extremely cold. I knew I set the heater on before I went to bed. What went wrong and what in the heck does that have to do with health and fitness?

Apparently, in the middle of the night it was very hot, I couldn't sleep well, my nostrils were unhappy, the heater was blasting, and making a very strange loud noise. I got up and turned it off almost all the way and open the windows in my bedroom. Suddenly, the fresh, cool, breeze air came through the windows, and I was able to breathe better again. What a great feeling! Wait a sec.. I thought the heater must stay on and the windows must be closed during the winter time.

I used to believe this statement. Unfortunately, my lungs, and my respiratory system never like the poisonous and gaseous air I was supplying my body and my mind. So it's inevitable that I had to rescue them. You see, if you don't have a high hand, expensive, clean operating heater system in your house, you probably are inhaling a lot of carbon dioxide during your sleep, and foreign pollutants.

When you wake up in the morning, your mood will be affected, even your mind. Yes your thinking ability as well, so don't feel bad if you lose your memory for a few minutes and keep banging your head, feet, or arms in a few places before you're totally awake.

See, when you close your windows completely, the natural air (well it's not so natural since there are so many pollutants in the air nowadays, at least where I live) that you and I were born to breathe is missing. If you have experimented before in the past inhaling fresh air in a very clean environment or a clean park, you'll know there's a huge difference breathing that type of air then any city air.

The lesson is this: if you keep on inhaling bad air, polluted air, and don't forget the air you are breathing in your own house may be affecting you, your spouse and your children' health, and you're not even aware of it. You need to get your hands on a nice air filter, or even better, keep the windows a little open. Try to breathe as much as clean air as you can, your lungs, your respiratory system, and your mind will thank you for it, even your performance level throughout the day will thank you for it.

Okay..! I'm out, go get some fresh air.
