Stay Healthy in an Unhealthy World
It is not that the world is unhealthy per se...but there is lots of unhealthy temptation around as well as unhealthy environments. There are many ways to eat better, exercise, avoid unhealthy places, and take care of yourself in simple ways.
The food situation is a big one. Must one purchase everything organic to be healthy? What are the most important products to purchase organic? Dairy products take front and center. Purchasing organic dairy products you are avoiding many unhealthy hormones.
When dining out stay away from the smoking areas, soon that won't even be an issue as everyplace will be smoke free soon. Make wise selections and give some thought to making those splurges. My favorite rule is always eat what you love or don't waste the calories.
Do some studying into supplements and vitamins and research what might be best for you in for any lacks you may have. Also talk with your health provider before embarking on a new regime.
Wear Sun Block when outside, and get as much fresh air as possible.
Exercise...just walking is your best bet. It is free and requires no equipment, and plan to do it everyday. Also stretch and use light weights for resistance training...All of this requires no gym membership.
Managing stress...First of all do not watch the stock market report daily...That will get anyone's heart racing. Don't put your head in the sand, and limit your news watching or listening as much as possible
Take time out for five minutes of meditation which just means breathing out four times and in a quiet spot. The show is a great place for this for busy people. This is a great way to start the day.
Develop a personal thought that is positive and loving, and let it run through your head as much as possible throughout the day.
Stay in touch with friends and family. Social activity and interaction keeps you alive and alert.
Brain health: Do something new today; learn something new whenever you are able, and do puzzles, games that are fun.
Breathe deeply often. This keeps you calm and centered.
We live in an imperfect world, and we all have our daily challenges. Take time out to give thanks for all you have.
