La práctica de yoga, pilates o cualquier otro ejercicio es, en principio, algo muy bueno. Sin embargo, a veces pasa que forzamos demasiado en una postura o en un ejercicio provocando contracturas o incluso alguna lesión.
Vivimos en un mundo con mucha distracción, prisa y estrés. Por eso hay una necesidad de relajarse, centrarse y conectar con uno mismo para que podamos conectar mejor con los demás y vivir nuestra vida con sentido. Para esta necesidad nació, lo que yo llamo, el Yoga & Movement Therapy.
Joseph H. Pilates es famoso por ser el creador del llamado Método Pilates. Poca gente sabe que en realidad su programa de ejercicios lo llamó Contrology. ¿Pero qué quería transmitir con el nombre de Contrology en lugar de poner directamente Método Pilates? En su libro nos da una pista al respecto: “...aprendes a controlar el cuerpo con la mente y no te dejas dominar por el mecanismo reflejo de los músculos”. ¿Pero qué significa exactamente esta frase? Para entenderlo bien, vamos a desentrañar su significado.
Kristine Weber, la fundadora de Subtle Yoga, explica las diferencias entre un yoga suave y un yoga de fitness. Tienen beneficios y objetivos diferentes. Mientras que un yoga de fitness tiene beneficios cardiovasculares, un yoga suave tiene un foque diferente, desarrolla la consciencia interna y la resiliencia del sistema nervioso.
El psoas es el músculo profundo que conecta la columna con las piernas. Tenemos dos psoas, uno en cada lado de la columna. Se originan en la vértebra torácica 12 (Th12) y en cada una de las vértebras lumbares (L1-5), cruzan la pelvis por delante de las articulaciones de las caderas y se insertan en el trocanter menor del fémur (la parte interna de la pierna).
La mejor manera a flexibilizar la columna, es cuando los músculos y los tejidos de la espalda están lo más relajados posible. Así la posición más adecuada sería tumbada en el suelo con las piernas dobladas, y con los pies en el suelo. Esta posición la llamamos la Posición de Descanso.
Hay un dicho que dice somos tan jóvenes cómo lo es nuestra columna. Así que tener una columna flexible nos mantiene jóvenes, nos hace sentir mejor y previene dolores musculares. Para mejorar la flexibilidad de nuestra columna a través del movimiento, sería útil saber cómo se construye la columna.
Hemos aprendido en la escuela que la sistema nervioso autónomo se divide en el sistema simpático y el sistema parasimpático. Para qué sirven? El sistema simpático nos prepara para correr y luchar, en otras palabras prepara el cuerpo para sobrevivir y genera el miedo. Por otro lado, el sistema parasimpático, ayuda a curarse, descansar y recuperarse. Éste último, controla los funciones de los sistemas digestivo, cardíaco y respiratorio a través del nervio vago.
¿Los problemas digestivos pueden tener un origen psicológico?
Angela Privin, una coach de nutrición, habla sobre los rasgos de personalidad de las personas con el Colon Irritable o Síndrome del Intestino Irritable (SII). Ella ha observado estos rasgos en si misma y en sus clientes.
Tienes malestar digestivo? Tu barriga se hincha por las tardes? Tienes diarrea o estreñimientos frecuentemente?
El sobrecrecimiento bacteriano del intestino delgado (SBID o SIBO en inglés) puede producir estos síntomas mencionados. También es el posible origen del síndrome del intestino irritable o el colon irritable.
Para evitar y curar el osteoporosis mucha gente toma suplementos de calcio y vitamina D pensando que ayudan a sus huesos. La verdad es que sin la vitamina K2 este régimen puede llegar a ser peligroso.
La vitamina D sirve para absorber el calcio, mientras que la vitamina K2 dirige el calcio absorbido a los huesos. Si la persona no toma vitamina K2, el calcio se deposita en los arterias y en los órganos blandos, causando arteriosclerosis y piedras en los riñones por ejemplo. El resultado es una combinación de arteriosclerosis y osteoporosis, lo que se conoce como la Paradoja del Calcio (“Calcium Paradox”).
¿Quieres tener dientes fuertes y prevenir osteoporosis y enfermedades cardiovasculares?
Los investigadores recientemente han descubierto que la mayoría de la población tiene deficiencia de vitamina K2. La vitamina K2 previene que el calcio se deposite en las arterias y en los tejidos blandos. Su mayor función es la de llevar el calcio a los huesos y a los dientes.
Hace años teniendo la experiencia de trabajar con un quiropráctico, aprendí que nuestra estructura corporal influye nuestra calidad de vida. Ahora, de nuevo, me ha llegado este mismo mensaje a través de una entrevista que he escuchado.
Así fue en breve: el cuerpo de un niño está en desarrollo. Su cara, su maxilar y su mandíbula necesitan ensancharse y crecer hacia delante tanto cómo la vía aérea que necesita desarrollarse para llegar a su tamaño adecuado. Sin embargo, puede llegar un momento en la vida del niño cuando su maxilar superior sobresale y sus dientes superiores frontales se proyectan hacia delante. Esto se conoce como maloclusión dental.
La respiración es la vida. No podemos existir sin ella. Existen casos cuando la vía aérea es más pequeña que el normal, oxigenando menos los pulmones y todo el cuerpo.
Cuando la vía aérea es pequeña, hay diferentes síntomas que se manifiestan. Los más evidentes son: roncar durante del sueño, respirar por la boca y un paladar estrecho. Es decir estas personas con una vía aérea tienen una malfunción que repercute todo el cuerpo.
