How to Live Life and Love It!

by Genevieve Behrend

"Evolution is better than Revolution. New Thought Library's New Thought Archives encompass a full range of New Thought media from Abrahamic to Vedic reflecting the ongoing evolution of human thought. New Thought's unique inclusion of science, art and philosophy contrasts with 'old thought' Religion. Today's 'New Thought 3.0' teaches personal responsibility, self-development, human rights and compassionate action as essential spiritual paradigms." ~ Avalon de Rossett

Chapter 12 - EXERCISES FOR HEALTH - p.87

1. Breathing, Bathing and Short, Easy, Profitable Exercises for Health:

Note: (These exercises are given as a stimulant to your capacity, both mental and physical. Mind and body are one. When both body and mind are strong happiness and success usually follow, especially if one adds to them mental and bodily efficiency.)

Correct breathing is one of Nature's most powerful methods of building a powerful body, a perfect body. Let us begin now to breathe correctly and profitably. If these exercises are taken as intended there will not be any strain.

The first exercise is this:
  • Upon arising in the morning first drink two or three glasses of water. The effect will be better if you will take the water just as hot as you can bear to drink it, with the juice of one-half a lemon in it.
  • Then stand erect, or else lie flat on the floor.
  • Exhale completely. Whether standing or lying on floor bend knees slightly.
  • As you exhale contract both the chest and the diaphragm, pushing the latter OUT and DOWN as far as possible without causing strain. Naturally this will extend the abdomen.
  • Then without lifting your chest pull abdomen IN as far as you can.
  • Then without any attempt at correct breathing push abdomen OUT and IN rapidly at least twelve times.

After you have mastered the above exercise for the abdomen and diaphragm, take the next exercise -for not more than two minutes each time.

This exercise is:
  • Stand erect, or lie flat on the back.
  • Exhale completely, contracting chest.
  • Then slowly inhale through the nostrils, trying not to allow chest to move.
  • Let the diaphragm push the abdomen down, then hold the breath for three or four seconds.
  • Exhale slowly.
  • Then forget all about abdomen and diaphragm and inhale deeply, letting breath lift chest walls up and out to their fullest capacity.
  • Hold breath a few seconds and exhale all the breath.

If you will practice these two simple exercises each morning for ten days, you will note a great improvement in physical condition and vitality, the head and mind will be clearer and you will have a real zest for work.

No doubt you know that the right kind of bath is a splendid nerve-tonic, as well as a most important point in attaining physical and mental perfection.

  • When bathing for cleanliness the water should be of blood temperature, never hot or cold.
  • After the cleansing bath, fill the washbasin with cold water.
  • Scoop up two handfuls and apply to the forehead, and rub up and down the face.
  • Dip hands in cold water again and shake off all surplus water, then rub off balance behind the ears.
  • Repeat process on back of neck.

These things soothe and strengthen the nerves.

New Thought Day was declared by James Edgerton on August 23rd, 1915
During research while expanding the free New Thought Library, one of the ministers came across an interesting quote from early New Thought Alliance President James A. Edgerton: "'The truth, once announced, has the power not only to renew but to extend itself. New Thought is universal in its ideals and therefore should be universal in its appeal. Under the guidance of the spirit, it should grow in good works until it embraces many lands and eventually the whole world.' ~ New Thought Day, August 23rd , 1915."

The New Thought Tao

Explore the New Thought Tao and discover deeper wisdom. New Thought has many forms, Taoist New Thought brings insights to the table that are not so apparent in Abrahamic forms.

Principles in the New Thought Tao provide powerful processes which serve as keys to deeper happiness and inner peace from the inside out.
