5 tips
to boost living well
Life can lead us on a treadmill and can get out of control
and into a rut! We are busy with work family, children, work/ family life the
list goes on. You know what you can do, here’s some fresh ideas to put one foot
in front and head forward:
1 Breathing
Breathing in and out is one of the most fundamental reflex
you have naturally. Oh! You can be do it
anywhere, in the car at the lights waiting for them to change, anywhere you are
waiting just think, stop, breathe in and out. I use slow deep breathing method
when I can’t fall asleep, works a treat.
2 Eating
well
We all know it starts at home in our own kitchen. Cooking at
home saves you money. We do have to plan to stay on track and if we get off,
reset! Take away is a sometime food we are what we eat, its madness at times,
information we are inhaling on DIET verse HEALTH interesting when
something is underlined we can see more. Reset, refocus balancing and be happy
with what you know and learn. Menu planning is a great way to do your shopping
list minimizing waste, it also stops the double up in the pantry. Quick easy
meals and some that you can double up the recipe and freeze for later in the
week. Your body knows what it want’s and will let you know if its lacking
something. Foods vitamins and mineral sometimes are lacking and can be improved
when hitting your nutrient goals.
3 Sleep
Sleep is your
bodies recharge center! The benefits are being studied all the time. We
have heard I don’t get enough sleep! Think back of when you got the best sleep,
you know the kind you woke up a felt amazing. Reset! Oh my goodness, has it
been so long you can’t remember. You need sleep, having a bath or shower at
night, going to bed early, read if you like reading, watch tv, doing anything that’s
relaxing and maybe a little mind numbingly boring set a time to go to sleep. Clearing
the mind at the end of the day for the next, time is on your side.
4 Moving
We all know
this is so important. It’s a function the body requires any movement small or
big. You know your capabilities. Start with small steps if it’s been a while a
couple of squats while waiting for the kettle to boil or grad the dog lead (if
you have a dog) or someone who will motivate you. We can get into a
winter rut and it can be had to get out of it, we need to more for our body,
mind and spirit (insert you believe here). So many free tools are online you can do in your
home, yoga for something gentle, https://tiffxo.com
this is my choice now.
5 Look after you first.
It’s a really
hard thing to think to do! Showing the people around us how much we love them
is very important. Looking after ourselves in the little things we do. Take time
out for you, have your nails done sometimes or go to the hairdresser and have
your hair styled or a massage or running a bubble bath, the act of doing
something is self-healing. Our friends, partners, family will still be there
and will notice you looking after you! Being ahead in your life, doing
something that makes you happy, makes you the best version of yourself. Go do
it, feeling awesome!
