Want to loose weight, sleep better and boost your immune
system?
1 Have a lie down
Back pain can be avoided and the damage repaired with one easy
exercise, which is lie down on the floor with your knees bent,
hip width apart, feet on the floor. Do this daily for about
five to fifteen minutes to release and lengthen your spine.
2 Note your nibbles
Crash diets don't work for long enough; instead maintain a
food
dairy to note your daily eating habits. With this you'll be
conscious of what you eat, and make healthier choices.
3 10 deep breaths
Our breath power our lymphatic system, which removes waste
from
cells. By taking 10 deep breaths, three times a day, you'll
clear more toxins and boost your thinking power by getting 20%
more oxygen to your brain.
4 Put your fork down
Put your fork down between every mouthful of food, it makes
you
chew your food properly, preventing digestive problems, and
also
prevents you from over- eating.
5 Make a list
The most effective stress buster is to make a list. Your short
term memory can only remember, on an average, seven things. So
when you overload it , your stress level escalate. Making a
list clears out all the stress from your brain you feel
tension
free. This saves you from headaches, depression and high blood
pressure.
6 Massage your feet
Poor circulation could be robbing you of much needed sleep.
Your temperature needs to drop slightly before you fall
asleep,
so your body dispels heat via your face, hands and feet. But
many women have poor circulation, which constricts the blood
vessels in their hands and feet and prevents them from
dispelling heat. A hot bath before sleeping or a hand and foot
massage will increase your circulation.
7 An organic apple a day
If you buy one organic item a day, make it an apple. Research
found that pesticide residues in 71% of apples- the highest in
fruits and vegetables.
8 Change your tea bag
When it comes to tea white is the new green. White tea comes
from the same plant as green and black but is harvested
earlier
and undergoes less processing, which means it contains more
cancer fighting anti- oxidants.
9 Eat dried apricots
The most common nutritional deficiency is iron. Tiredness,
irritability and lack of concentration. Prevent it by having
two helpings of lean red meat a week, or three dried apricots
a
day.
10 Stop skipping meals
Eating three meals a day is very important for a healthy body.
It's the simplest way to balance blood sugar levels, which
will
keep your mood, energy and concentration balanced and
strengthen
your stress tolerance.
11 Keep it crunchy
Include some raw vegetables in every meal. Many of the
vitamins
and minerals are in vegetables are lost through cooking, so
raw
food is as good as it gets.
12 Focus on your feeling
Take two minutes to boost your resolve to do walk, jog or
aerobics class. The instant gratification of that exercise
high
is far more motivating than the promise of thinner thighs two
months down the line.
