Do you want to know what you need
to do to enhance a healthy living you have been craving for? This article is
written purposely to show you the right steps to take if you really want to
change your life for the better. The
modern age and all the intricacies associated with it have indeed made it quite
extremely easy to neglect our wellness and health without even noticing the
type of disservice we are doing to ourselves. We seemed to be busy throughout
the day racing through our day to day lives – family, friends, work, and social
engagements – that we don’t for once take time to look after ourselves. This
manifested in the way we go about our routine lifestyle and through this some
of us appeared tired and run down. Then, the question is “what are some simple
things that you can do to improve your quality of life?
1. Eat Only What Can Add More Nutrients To Your Life: Our daily life
has always been subjected to eating of highly processed food and this has
contributed in no small ways to the rate at which we consume so much impurities
into our body system. Reports have shown that heating food above 116°F destroys
much of the nutrient contents in such foods. Some nutrients are processed out
of some foods we eat nowadays and some don’t even care to know the type
problems this might cause for our body system.
And, at the same time some of us aren’t eating
enough veggies as being prescribed by the nutritionist for effective living. This
on the other hand constitutes a substantially eating problem. It is noted that Nutritionists
recommend five serves of fresh vegetables per day. How many of us are actually
taking that advice?
Remember, a
great way to get the nutrients found in fresh veggies without spending all day
at stove or eating raw celery sticks is to juice your veggies. Ensure that you
get a good juicer because some juicers expose vegetables to heat created by
friction during juicing, which breaks down important enzymes especially those
nutrients that are beneficial to the body. Ensure to grab some fresh vegetables
and drink your way to good health. However, the amazing part of this is that it
takes just a fraction of the time to get it prepared and doesn’t even involves
cooking at all and can equally be prepared at your own convenient time. Lastly, you stand the chance of taking your
juice to work and can even give some to the little ones for school lunches!
2. Drink
Some Cup Of Water But Do Away With All
Forms of Alcohol: It has been proven scientifically that drinking a lot of
water on daily basis can save you a great deal to enhance food digestion as
well as sending out of some impurities from your body. Think about it for a
second: The human body is known to be composed of 72% water. A 5% drop in
fluids creates a 25-30% loss in energy while a considerable drop in fluids up
to about 15% can cause death! And the agonizing part of this is that 66% of us
aren’t drinking enough water that can help them live a healthy lifestyle. So,
more than half of the world population isn’t running on all six cylinders for
effective living. You need to have a better understanding of the negative
impacts of bad air, bad food and stress can have on your life, especially if
you want to live a healthy lifestyle without being subjected to any form of
illness. You also need to know that it’s not all that difficult to remedy this
anomaly. Just ensure that you change your disposition towards drinking of one
glass of water every half hour or so, or presumably you can try to take between
10-12 glasses of water per day. As you do this you’ll notice a huge jump in
your energy levels and will be more invigorated to carry out your daily
activities without complaining of getting tired more often.
3.
Taking Part in Daily Exercise: Exercises have
always been prescribed as major contributors to healing process of some
terminal diseases and has been proven to be of highly beneficial in the
treatment of such diseases or illness. Though exercise is another dirty word
for most of us because of the inconveniences we might be experiencing while
doing it, but the most important reason why we have no other option than to exercise
our body is that, it is a life saver. You need to bear it in mind that exercise
doesn’t have to be horribly time consuming or mind-numbingly and boring. There
are quite a number of options you can choose from especially after you might
have studied yourself purposely to know which type of exercise is ideal for
your body system. In the times past gyms usually offered weight rooms, aerobics
classes and maybe a tydro-circuit to whoever wants to carry out one form of
exercise or the other. However, there are more options available for you to choose
from such as water aerobics, yoga, Pilates, step classes and a whole range of
new workout options to choose from.
However, if you don’t really have
the time or money for the gym, or prefer to spend your mornings/nights at home,
then you can try an exercise bike or walker. At times you may even be physically
unfit or tired and this can make it a mammoth battle to just do the most
minimal amount of exercise in a day. The danger associated with this is that
inactivity for a long time can lead to further loss of energy or ability to
carry out any form of exercises. This may become a self-perpetuating cycle
until you can barely get off the couch.
An excellent way to get back into a
physical routine is to start slowly. Ridiculously slowly, it may seem. For the
first couple of weeks, walk/ride for 5 minutes per day – exactly 5 minutes, no
more, even if you think you could continue. If you are able to do this for 2
whole weeks then you can increase to 7 minutes, then 10 minutes, 12 minutes… and
on and on like that. Just try as much as possible to gradually increase your
activity level until you’re at a level that you’re more comfortable with and
that nothing can make you stop what you are doing. Another thing you need to
know is that as you are starting out your body system may feel disjointed but
the simple truth is that the only thing that can solve the problem for you is
not to stop. DON’T STOP!
It may sound a little silly, but it
works. In effect, you trick your body into producing more energy. You’re
building your exercise time up so slowly that your body doesn’t really realize
what’s happening. Follow this method and, before you know it, you’ll be
comfortably exercising within your limits every day. And you wouldn’t regret
doing this.
Yes, that’s just the basics of what
you need to know for an effective and enduring healthy lifestyle. If you can
rearrange your life a little to allow for better eating habits, drinking of
more water and a little exercise in a day, you’ll be well on the way to living
a healthy life.
In conclusion, cultivate the habits
of taking some quiet time for yourself to meditate. Meditating is an excellent
way to minimise stress. You don’t have to sit around for hours, just give
yourself 5 minutes of quiet time every day – even in the shower, if that’s the
only place where you can get time out – and have a little catch up with
yourself.
You have to remember that a healthy
lifestyle is an option you can decide to choose if you want to live your dream
life that is devoid of all form of tiredness or sickness. Choose to be healthy
and live healthy. It’s your choice.
