Dear Jimi,
Hello, Friday!
Somewhere between two and four in the morning, you wake up.
Not for any reason. You just do.
Your heart is going faster than it should be for someone lying still in the dark.
You check the clock, work out how much sleep is left, and lie there.
But your body is still on duty.
Somewhere along the way it stopped believing the day was over, and it has been standing guard every night since.
Heart rate up, blood pressure up, and none of the repair work that should happen while you sleep.
Night after night, your risk of getting a heart attack rises, regardless of what your cholesterol happens to say.
And nobody at any appointment has ever asked how you sleep.
The good news is that the body will stand down. It only has to be told, and the telling takes five minutes.
That’s why at Zonia we released a brand-new free guide called "7 Breathing Techniques to Save Your Heart."
It shows you the one you can use tonight, in the dark, without getting up or taking anything.
Get your free copy of this new guide: "7 Breathing Techniques to Save Your Heart."

Hi Jimi, it’s Sarah.
Most people think food sensitivities are about what they can’t eat.
“Dairy doesn't agree with me.”
“I can't do bread.”
But the foods you already avoid often aren’t the whole story. Sometimes they’re not even the real problem.
That’s because food reactions rarely announce themselves the way you’d expect.
They don't always show up in your stomach as bloating or indigestion. They can look like a headache, achy joints, a rash, or that heavy, tired feeling that drags you onto the couch by mid-afternoon.
On top of that, reactions don’t usually happen right away.
Symptoms of food intolerance often show up a few hours after you eat. By then, you've moved on to your next meal (or two), so it’s easy to blame the wrong thing.
Which means a food you think is perfectly fine could be secretly working behind the scenes to make you feel rotten.
It also explains why so many people cut out food after food and still don’t feel better. Their “safe” list keeps shrinking, but the symptoms stay.
Think you might have a food allergy? Or do you have food allergies and want effective, expert-recommended ways to support your health?
Then don’t miss the upcoming Food Sensitivity Summit.
⇒ Click here to learn more and claim your seat — it’s free!
At this online Summit, 15 experts — including Dr. Datis Kharrazian, Dr. Christine Shaffner, Angela Pifer, and more — will explain:
Most importantly, you’ll learn how to find what’s behind your reactions, so you can stop guessing and take back control of your plate (instead of letting it control you).
And when you sign up today, you’ll also get two free guides: The Ultimate Detox Guide and The Anti-Inflammation Playbook.

Yours for better health naturally,

A few years ago, one of the most influential Zen masters of our time, Thich Nhat Hanh, departed his physical body at age 95. Lovingly known as the "father of mindfulness," his wisdom lives on and continues to heal and inspire millions worldwide.
To celebrate his life, I've included a powerful Buddhist prayer below. But first, here is some advice from Thich Nhat Hanh on the "right way to pray."
When I first read these words from him, they blew me away...
“If you are standing on one shore and want to cross over to the other shore, you have to use a boat or swim across. You cannot just pray, ‘Oh, other shore, please come over here for me to step across!’ To a Buddhist, praying without also practicing is not real prayer.
"In a real prayer, you ask only for the things you really need, things that are necessary for your well-being, such as peace, solidity, and freedom... freedom from anger, fear and craving. Happiness and well-being are not possible without peace, solidity and freedom. Most of our desires are not for our peace, solidity and freedom.
"While you pray, you are deeply aware of what you really need and what is just the object of your desire. This kind of prayer is the light of God that shines upon you, telling you which way to go in order to obtain peace, solidity and freedom. In a real prayer, you also touch the wholesome seeds in your consciousness and water them. These are seeds of compassion, love, understanding, forgiveness and joy.
"If while praying you can recognize these seeds in you and help them grow, your prayer is already a deep practice."
I hope this deep reflection touched something within you, as it did me. Here is a Buddhist prayer for love and compassion that embodies Thich Nhat Hanh's words above.
The Nine Prayers
May I be peaceful, happy, and light in body and spirit.
May I be free from injury. May I live in safety.
May I be free from disturbance, fear, anxiety, and worry.
May I learn to look at myself with the eyes of understanding and love.
May I be able to recognize and touch the seeds of joy and happiness in myself.
May I learn to identify and see the sources of anger, craving, and delusion in myself.
May I know how to nourish the seeds of joy in myself every day.
May I be able to live fresh, solid, and free.
May I be free from attachment and aversion, but not be indifferent.
To honoring and nourishing the soul light that lives inside of you.

Hey JimiA brand new podcast is out now with Dr Jay Wiles, one of the world’s leading experts in heart rate variability (HRV) and the nervous system.HRV is the tiny change in time between each heartbeat. It can give us clues about how well your body is dealing with stress, recovering and adapting to everyday life.In this episode, Jay shares practical tools you can start using today to handle stress better, improve sleep and recovery, and train your nervous system to become more resilient over time.We also talk about what your HRV score really means, whether you can trust your Oura Ring or smartwatch, and why simply trying to get your HRV number higher may be the wrong goal. Jay also explains how slow and resonance breathing can change your HRV in the moment, and why regular practice may help create longer-term changes in the way your nervous system responds to stress. If you’ve ever wondered why you still feel tired, stressed or poorly recovered even when you’re trying to do everything right, I think you’ll get a lot from this one.
