Do you find your reflection in the mirror less attractive than before? Changing your lifestyle and altering your eating habits may help you change this situation!

This years has been rough and unpredictable. It still is. But there is something we can do. We can reflect on our everyday routine, try something new and listen to our body. Believe me, you are going to feel the change in no time.

Let’s start with few simple questions.

  1. Do you drink enough of water? Not coffee, tea, orange juice or soda. Just simple water? Make sure to include at least about 2 liters of wanter on top of your other drinks (and well, start drinking less other things!).
  2. Do you sleep enough? It is necessary to sleep not less than 7 hours for better skin, mood and overall well-being. It is proved that lack of sleep can influence your weight. If you experience problems, think about changing your mattress, doing some yoga or meditation or take some supplements (you can find some natural sleep aids at Ora Organic).
  3. Are you active? Before going into the healthy eating habits to change your life, we have to mention, that one of the golden rules is decent activity level! It doesn’t mean you have to do cardio every day. Listen to your body. Longer walks work great! Do some stretched (especially if you live a sedentary lifestyle). Later try to include jogging, strength routine or more intense yoga.

And finally let us talk about food! What can you change to make your eating healthier and your feeling happier?

  • Try to include more vegetables and fruit into your everyday meals.

We need about 3 portions of veggies and 2 portions of fruit everyday (ideally). Consider eating them raw (make a salad) as it is much better for your digestion! Vegetables and fruit are difficult to keep fresh for a long time and it is quite a pain in the neck to do shopping every other day. But these days it is much easier and cheaper to get fresh veggies and fruit delivered to you, see Farm Box for that! They also offer you a credit, if you tell your friends about their service 🙂

  • Do you have no self control?

What about clearing your house of all the possible food and just eating the healthy meals delivered to your according to the plan? There is a great UK service Balance Meals providing meals for your needs weekly!

Do you live somewhere around New York, Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Baltimore, Boston, and the surrounding areas? You are lucky to be able to order from Mosaic Food. They only deliver to the area not too far from their kitchen. You can choose 9 or 12 meals per weak (or every 2-3 weeks) and a meal can cost as low as 7 USD!

Do not fancy any commitment? Here is a great US service Top Chef Meals delivering amazing food as your order! The best thing is that they offer a wide range of different diets to choose from! Keto, Paleo, Gluten Free and so on.

  • Make it a ritual!

Enjoy eating and enjoy cooking! That is the next step of accepting food as not simply a product to eat, but also an “activity”. Make it a family event! Choose an exotic dish and experiment together. Get inspired by SNUK, they offer global and rare ingredients. They also have a nice blog with great recipes!

  • Do not torture yourself!

Saying “No” makes you sad. It is difficult to change your life immediately. What you need to do is to gradually transform yourself. If you used to eat a lot of sweets and pastries, do not deprive yourself of this pleasure. See our previous tip, and make a whole festival our of it! Check Foodstirs for some baking ideas and great high-quality ingredients, cook together with your friends or children. Do not forget to share 🙂

  • Care about others!

Do you need some help being more active? Care more about others! Go volunteering or get a pet! Dogs need to be walked with and this way you will be forced to be much more active!

Do not forget your pets should eat healthy. At Barking Heads UK they offer discounts for a subscription 🙂

 

We hope you found these tips useful. Soon we will post some content on the best diets for happy and healthy life. Stay tuned.

Improve Your Life Quality in 5 Steps https://lifestylearchitects.club/improve-your-life-quality-in-5-steps/ Wed, 01 Jul 2020 12:58:59 +0000 https://lifestylearchitects.club/?p=457

Do you find yourself feeling frustrated on a daily basis? Do you feel like a zombie, waking up each day to the same repetitive cycle that seems never-ending? Has the quality of your life decreased over time, resulting in a loss of energy, vitality, and enthusiasm for the future?

We all get frustrated from time to time. Life can be overwhelming, it is alright to feel down from time to time. But today we have some ideas for you to improve your quality of life and, thus, to improve you mood.

We advise your ro adopt some habits in order to significantly change your lifestyle. You will feel the difference! Some minor changes can better your state of mind.

Health Habits

These are daily health habits as opposed to yearly health habits such as visiting the doctor or dentist. You should institute at least these top 5 health habits each and every single day.

Be Active

Maybe you can’t exercise every single day. But you can most certainly ensure that you walk at least 10,000 steps. Walking 10,000 steps has extraordinary health benefits. Too often, we don’t walk even close to 10,000 steps. In fact, studies have suggested that daily physical activity not only helps with weight loss, but that it also helps to decrease your risk of heart disease and diabetes.

Does walking seem too boring? What about biking?

Check this website to get everything you need from bikes to gear and clothing in the UK!

Are you from the United States? You are active but also care about the environment just a bit too much? Here is your destination for a perfect modern ebike. It is expensive but it is worth the price!

Drink Water

Everyone knows the health benefits of water. Human adult bodies consist of up to 60% water, the brain and heart consist of 73% water, and the lungs consist of approximately 83% water.  But, too often, we don’t take in enough water. We generally tend to get our water intake from sugary sodas, coffees, and other unhealthy drinks.

Brush Your Teeth

And not just brush! Brushing and flossing might not seem like a must-have health habit, but it is. There are so many health benefits associated with brushing and flossing every single day.  Scientific researches have found the link between such conditions as, for example, Alzheimer’s disease and the dental hygeine habits of the patients. Make sure your teeth are healthy, go to the dentist regularly. Here you can find some Dental Plans which will make t affordable habit!

Vitamins and Minerals

There are so many health benefits to ensuring that you get the proper vitamins and minerals every single day, that they’re too long to list. Ensure that you’re taking at least one daily supplement to receive the essential vitamins and minerals that your body needs every single day. These are necessarily for all types of optimal mind and body functioning. Do not know where to start from?  Try here at Bulk! You can find all sorts of supplements to suit your needs.


 

Sleep Well

Getting at least 7 hours of sleep each night is critical to your vitality. So many important functions take place in the mind and body when we sleep. It’s our body’s chance to rest, unwind, and recharge. While we’re consciously out, so to speak, our unconscious mind and body are busy at work restoring, recharging, and re-energizing.

What if you do not sleep that well?

One of the problems might be in your bed or bed matress. Is the one you have comfortable enough?

Check here for a new comfy mattress, GDF offers free shipping regargless of your purchase cost!

Another great website is Brooklyn Bedding, they offer 120 nights trial and free returns!

Most people suffer from sleep deficiency, which has an overall effect on mood, energy, health, and mental well-being. Multiple studies have suggested that not only doe sleep help to improve things like memory, but it also helps to boost the longevity of life, increase awareness, and spur creativity.

We will tell you more soon!

Meanwhile start making your life better!
