TRY THESE SEVEN TIPS TO IMPROVE YOUR OVERALL HEALTH AND WELLNESS.
Each day for 1 week, carefully consider one of these “tips” and ask yourself how you can better bring it into you daily life.
1. Maintain nutritional eating habits- monitor and regulate your use of sugar and caffeine. Be especially careful of your alcohol intake, and if you smoke, stop!
2. Restful sleep- develop effective pre sleep habits and practice moments of relaxation during the day.
3. Get some exercise- especially cardio enhancing exercise. Go for a vigorous walk regularly, or get out your bicycle.
4. Plan activities for relaxation and fun. Be intentional, rather than passive, about playing. Children don’t just play because they have energy. They also have energy because they play.
5. Grow a support system – try to connect with friends who are emotionally encouraging and intellectually stimulating. Ask “doomsayers” to leave you out of that part of their repertoire.
6. Learn to say “NO” – limit your activities to a level that can be accomplished. Try not to over extend yourself to the breaking point and thereby expose yourself to exhaustion and continuous disappointment. Reach beyond your capacity when you have the physical and emotional reserves to endure the journey.
7. Consider new perspectives and ideas about the world around you and your place in it- being able to change your mind and your attitude is important to your resiliency. When we change the way we look at things, the things we look at change.
HAVE A GREAT WEEK!
