Healthy Daily Habits Routine |

More and more people talk about the importance of self-esteem. It expands our awareness of the need to look at ourselves with a positive assessment, with affection, with care, with attention. In order to achieve a healthy condition and quality of life compatible with this, it is essential to develop a routine of healthy daily habits.

Although modern life makes us think that we need many things to feel good and happy, true happiness lies in having quality in the simplest things in life, which do not require money, technology or sophistication: breathing freely, eating properly, sleeping , drink water, move around and have healthy thoughts.

Awakening

To start a good day we have to take care of our awakening. A very unpleasant habit that many of us cultivate is waking up to the noise of the alarm clock. But how to replace it without running the risk of wasting time? A good option is the cell phone vibrator. When we already have the habit of waking up every day, the vibration of the device is enough to wake us up. But if sound is necessary, how about choosing soft music instead of loud and stressful?

And if you wake someone else up or are woken up by someone, how about talking about the best way to wake up? Some people prefer to be woken up by light, some by sound, some by touch. Everyone has their own preferences and although we would all prefer to wake up naturally, without having to schedule ourselves, it’s good to find ways to wake up that guarantee our good morning mood.

Still in bed, remember to stretch out, such an old and healthy habit that we have put aside in the rush of everyday life. How long can we take this? Not five minutes! And it will make a huge difference throughout the day.

Food

Up, ready for routine activities, be sure to have your first meal. If you don’t have time for this, try to get up earlier, but be sure to have breakfast before getting involved in your work. And even if you don’t have to follow a diet, try to eat something every 3 hours. In addition to keeping your body well-fed, you force yourself to take short breaks in what you’re doing. Take the opportunity to drink water – one of the fundamental habits for health. And if you work sitting down, get up and take a walk, even if it’s to the bathroom.

These are the times when you can also stretch, in addition to performing short breathing exercises, inhaling air slowly and deeply, holding your breath for a few seconds and blowing out through your mouth. A cycle of a few breaths will cause immediate relaxation due to greater oxygenation of your body, which relieves physical and mental tensions. These small breaks throughout the day provide an important increase in your productivity. You will notice that you return to your activity with more awareness of yourself, the position of your body and the tensions of your thoughts, being able to interfere more consciously in these factors from then on.

The main meals, breakfast, lunch and dinner can follow a very easy tip: variety of colors! A colorful dish, where the portions are balanced and without exaggerating quantities, will bring health, balance and well-being. Chewing well, eating slowly and avoiding subjects that annoy you during meals help in the process of absorbing and digesting food. And when you get back to activities, five minutes of relaxation and breathing will make a big difference!

Rest

Just as important as staying well during the day’s activities is rest and preparation for a good night’s sleep. Set a healthy time for you to go to bed and turn off all electronic devices in your bedroom, such as your computer, television or stereo. When lying down, try to calm your breathing and think of beautiful images, beautiful things, happy situations, real or imaginary. This positively influences your sleep and your dreams.

Other important tips

If you’ve read all of this, found it very interesting, but don’t feel capable of adopting some habit changes that you think are important for your life, try to focus on one single point at a time. Practice for a week or two and only after you manage to incorporate the habit, set yourself a new goal. And it is possible that some suggestions are impractical for you, depending on the type of activity you carry out. The important thing is not to lose sight of the objective and be able to adapt the routines so that they are possible in your day-to-day life. Ask for help from a professional Naturologist if you feel that you are not managing to incorporate the new attitudes that you think are important on your own!

Everyone is able to live with more balance and health. Try it, your self-esteem will thank you!
