AIR
Well, the best air to breathe for optimum health is oxygen-rich, negatively charged air. The negative charge in air is usually attached to oxygen. Air molecules can gain or lose electrical charges due to sunlight, cosmic radiation, and moving air and water. Negative ions tend to concentrate near rivers and waterfalls due to their movement. They also exist in places like beaches, forests, mountains, and interestingly enough, areas that have just been struck by lightning. All of these places have something in common, other than the profusion of healthy negative ions: they all seem to congregate in the outdoors; specifically, the wild and natural outdoors.
Negative ions are also referred to as “happy ions” because they contribute to better moods, more energy, and an overall sense of well-being. Have you ever noticed your mood after leaving a sunny day at the beach or after hiking to a grand, rushing waterfall? Maybe you noticed that you feel refreshed, calm, and happy. There’s a reason for that happiness: studies show that people who spend time in environments with a high negative ion concentration are less likely to be depressed. They sleep better and have more energy, too!
When we breathe, we don’t move nearly all the air in our lungs. An interesting way our body tries to remedy this is through a sigh. We sigh because our brains want to flush out some of the stale air in our lungs, and so we’re periodically triggered to take in a deep breath, i.e. a sigh.
it’s much more helpful to go somewhere we can find a higher concentration of negatively charged particles and intentionally take 3-5 very deep breaths of that clean air.
Afterward, bend over at the waist and cough at the end of the expiration.. The result of rising oxygen levels is a clearer mind.
! Take it a step further and grow a few plants indoors—they can be used to “grow” your own fresh air. Some of the best plants for this are plants with a large surface area, such as ferns, palms, and lilies.

Pointers to Powerful Prayer is an anthology of opportunities for prayer, each with a Bible text and a motivational response.
One of the paths to spiritual failure is a weak prayer life. Prayerless study, prayerless work, prayerless religious activity do not create an adequate relationship with God; they make a mockery of our spiritual wellbeing. However, powerful prayer has the might to make even Satan quake in fear. |
