"Each one of us is born with everything that we need in this world"

“ Hi, my name is Nordine Zouareg. I was born in the back of a French army truck in the North-African desert to impoverished nomad parents. I suffered from rickets and barely survived infancy. Hospitalized for the first two years of my life, I was a tiny and timid child, but as an adolescent 108-pound weakling I resolved to strengthen myself physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.

“ I pursued a vision of total health, and I turned my vision into reality by becoming an international fitness coach, and then Mr. Universe, in just a few years.... I realized my dream, and you can too! ”

The founder of Triple Impact, LLC, Nordine Zouareg developed and led the Body Mindfulness Center at "Miraval - Life In Balance", the world-renowned celebrity resort/spa in Arizona.

Mind Over Body Revolution Tip #3 (Night Anxiety)

Wednesday, May 27, 2009

Mindful Tip: Bedtime is a common time to get night anxiety because suddenly, all of our convenient distractions from our worries are gone and it’s just us, our pillows and our worries. The key is not to panic!

Mindful Wisdom: The mind is like a wild stallion; it must be held back.

Mindful Action: while in bed do not think about things you need to do the next day while trying to sleep. It helps me to write down everything that I'm worried about on a piece of paper, tell myself I will worry about it in the morning, and give myself permission to not think about it all until then. Also, with nothing else on your mind, just focus on your breath as you lay there. Imagine nothing else existing besides your breath. Breath in as deep and as slow as you can.
