Wow!! Happy New year my
dear readers .its been so long since i last posted but seriously am back for
good and for the best and check out what have got for you today.
Today’s world just
seems to get busier and busier. It has been easy for me also from lectures and another
trying to balance everything to achieve
your goal for that day. Most of the time it probably feels like you’re just
jumping from the treadmill of work onto, well, a real treadmill! How are you
ever supposed to keep up a healthy lifestyle without running yourself into the
ground.
Well, I have good news!
Getting healthy and fit doesn’t have to be a big project. Most of the changes
you should make can be super small, everyday things. Try this tips below to get
started!
1.
Eat Healthy
These days there seem
to be new health food trends every day, but it’s really the basics that are the
most important. First, just focus on getting the right amount of fruit,
vegetables, and proteins on a daily basis.
A great way to do this
is by preparing meals in advance for the week. That way, you’re not adding
cooking a fancy, healthy meal to your to do list every day on top of a full day
of work!
2.
Get Your Nutrients
Even if you think
you’re eating pretty healthily, sometimes you might be missing out on important
nutrients without even realizing it. Things like zinc, iron and other vitamins
that are really important for your energy levels. To make sure you’re getting
enough, try taking a multivitamin. They’re pretty cheap and you can even get them
as gummies if, but I just have a problem with drugs.
I HATE THEM!!!!
3.
Hydrate
Did you ever learn in
school about how we’re all 90% water? Well, that probably explains why it is so
important for you to drink you 8 glasses (or more!) of water a day. If you’re
busy and might not remember to walk to the water cooler every hour, just fill
up a water bottle to keep at your desk. It’s convenient, good for the
environment and it might keep you from reaching for that unhealthy soda, too!
4.
Exercise Regularly
This am battling with
anything am in the walls of my school see some student always jogging both
morning and evening and I would be like
, Don’t You have Assignments to do? Or Are u just so free that Exercise
is the next thing to do.
You may feel like your schedule
is too jam-packed for you to fit in a regular exercise routine, but you’d be
surprised how easy it can be! Even adding as little as 15 or 20 minutes of
moderate exercise to your daily activities can boost your energy levels and
lower your risk of a number of health conditions.
There are even
exercises you can do at your desk or at home while you watch TV! This way you
can feel good about yourself and get that great endorphin rush without having
to spend a grueling hour at the gym watching other people sweat.
5.
Sleep Well
Sleep is hugely
important to your overall health. According to a recent survey 50 to 70 million
Americans suffer from a sleep disorder. Even if you are super busy, it is worth
making room for a full night’s rest. But getting the right number of hours
alone won’t do it, you also need to be getting quality sleep. This means
sleeping through the night, not tossing, turning and getting up ten times
during the night to jot down notes on your to-do list for tomorrow!
If you have trouble
falling asleep, consider a white noise machine, an eye mask, or upgrading your
mattress to make sure you are as comfortable as possible. Just think, you could
be waking up in the morning and actually feeling rested! With that kind of good
start to the day, tackling a crazy schedule becomes way less stressful.
6.
Prioritize
You’d better suck it up
and admit it right now—you aren’t Superman. That’s right, you can’t do
everything. So take a good hard look at all of the work you’re putting on that
never-ending to-do list of yours and figure out what is really important.
Do you really need to
repaint your dresser this weekend? I doubt it. Put it at the bottom of the
list! What about fixing the layout for that presentation you have on Monday.
Can your assistant do it? Great—delegate! By cutting your to-do list down to
the essentials, you can make more room for healthy behaviors (you know, like
breathing!).
7.
Limit Energy Supplements
While it’s easy to rely
on energy drinks or coffee on top of coffee to get you through a busy day, that
habit is a real problem for your health. Energy drinks or excess caffeine may
make you feel ready to conquer the world for an hour or so after you’ve taken
them, but you’re sure to slump later in the day and feel even worse than you
would have otherwise.
Thankfully, healthy
habits should restore your energy so you don’t have to rely on extras like
energy drinks anymore.
8.
De-stress
For some people that’s
yoga, for others it’s curling up with a good book. Whatever it is that helps
you de-stress, build time for it into your schedule. It may seem like a waste
at first, but by giving yourself time to relax you are actually lowering your
stress levels, which makes your body healthier and your mind less frazzled.
Trust me, you’ll get way more done this way than just by powering through your
stressful day with no break in sight!
9.
Maintain Your Support Network
Friends and family
aren’t just for fun and games—they are really important for your mental,
emotional, and even your physical health! People with strong support networks
are better at overcoming setbacks and problems in their lives.
It makes sense, because
having someone to talk to when life is tough just makes everything seem so much
more doable. So don’t feel like grabbing coffee with a friend or taking a long
weekend to go back home to visit your folks is being unproductive. Actually,
taking little actions like those regularly makes sure your support network is
strong and will be ready for you if times do get tough. That’s right, you have
to go grab some drinks with your friends—for your health!
10.
Take A Step Back
Is this really life and
death? Are you in the middle of saving the planet or being elected Supreme
Ruler of the Universe? If not, get some perspective. More likely than not, in
the grand scheme of things, your to-do list isn’t really that important. What
is important for your life in the long haul? Your health! You’ve only got the
one body, so think about that whenever you start to lose track of your health
and fitness goals
Remember, when it comes
to health and fitness, take it one day at a time. You won’t become the queen of
healthy cooking or an ace marathon runner right off the bat. That’s ok. Every
time you make a healthy choice, give yourself a pat on the back. You’re moving
in the right direction, and that’s progress worth celebrating!
