Bowen Technique with Elizabeth Crawford Here is my condensed version of what Bowen has helped me with so far:(by Sheetal)
Part Two(continuation)
2. Lower back pain – After my delivery 9 months ago, I was having severe lower back pain which had made every day tasks very difficult for me. Something as simple as bending over and picking up my daughter would leave me with excruciating jolts of pain that would start out from the middle of spine and run through my pelvic area and coccyx. After the 02nd session which focused on my pelvis and lower back, my back pain has reduced considerably and I now find moving around so much easier.
3. Energy Levels – After starting out with Bowen, I’ve found my energy levels remain constant throughout the day. Earlier, I would be physically drained out by 6 in the evening. Now my body somehow feels stronger and also at the same time lighter. I now look forward to long walks after work and feel vibrant throughout the day.
4. Posture – Prior to Bowen, I used to walk around with a bad posture – droopy shoulders with my butt sticking out in the oddest angle. The centre of my balance was completely off and I usually would find my body tilting towards the left whenever I’d stand up to walk. With my treatment sessions, I now find myself walking and even sitting upright either in the office and / or at home. I walk with my head lifted high and my shoulders and back straight, which I never did earlier as I’d always felt this tight vice like band round my shoulder / rib cage area.

5 top tips for exercising in Ramadan.
Best times to workout:
Before breaking the fast
Your blood sugar might be low, so please practise caution during the first week of Ramadan.
After breaking the fast
2 to 3 hours after your meal. Do not do activities that require high energy expenditure
Just before suhoor
If you can, get in about 25 minutes of exercise right before suhoor. This way you do not dehydrate your body while working out during you fast, and you are able to fuel yourself right away.
25 minutes is adequate. 10 minutes of cardio, 15 minutes of strength training. Alternate between upper body and core and lower body and core, and this will ensure you are targeting your body overall. The duration is short enough to keep you from feeling thirsty.
Listen to your body
If you are tired or exhausted, then either shorten your workout, or change your routine. Change the time. Try different things to see what works the best for you.
