What’s Behind It
First of all, you need to know that, in order to achieve a healthy and fit life, you must be living a very healthy life with proper and healthy life style. There are some very important ingredients in making your life fit and healthy and without those ingredients; you will not be able to get that desired health and fitness. Most people think that without adapting to a certain tasteless diet
plan and working hard in gym, they cannot get a healthy and fit life. But this is not entirely true. Although doing exercise and keeping your diet healthy is important, it's not everything which you have to do to maintaining your health and fitness.
There are some other secrets which you must know and these secrets are also very easy to implement and execute. No matter how busy your life is, you can always find the time to execute these things which I am going to tell you now.
Secret #1 - Healthy Eating
This is well-heard word which almost every person tells you, that to get a healthy and fit body, you need to control your eating habits and make it healthier. But no one tells you some easy way to do that. When it comes to
healthy eating, it does not just include eating healthier food, but it also includes avoid eating all the unhealthy stuff.
You need to add natural elements like vegetables, fruit, unsaturated fat and unrefined carbohydrates. At the start you will find it difficult to integrate these things in your diet plan, but with time, you will learn about nutrition values of different diets. It will become a lot easier for you to pick up the best diet plan. You should avoid eating junk and fast food because these food items contain unhealthy fat, refined carbohydrates and other similar things which can be very unhealthy and can increase your weight a lot.
Secret # 2 - Regular Exercise
Another very important thing is exercise. You must include some sort of exercise in your daily routine. Some people have this misconception that only after joining a gym and paying some heavy fee for that gym will give them a proper work out routine. But this is not necessary and secondly, during these times of economic recessions and financial hardships, most people cannot afford that much money and as well, do not have that much time these days to go to gym daily for workouts. Office routines are very demanding and tough, and to survive and make ends meet, you need to work more than 12 hours a day. So you need to find some alternative to that gym.
You can add some light walk and jogging either in the evening or, you can get up 25-30 minutes earlier than your normal wake-up routine and go out for a walk. You can also add some walk in your routine by minimizing the use of your car. You often use car for going to grocery store as well as to other routine places. But instead of using your car, you can go on foot which is another good exercise added to your exercise routines.
Secret # 3 - Stress Management
Being stress free is another essential thing to take into account. This can give very positive effects in your life. Hectic work routines, family issues, relationships issues and financial problems coupled with no relaxing time can increase the stress level a lot. And in lots of cases I have seen people experiencing sleeping disorder, due to this constant stress. To avoid this type of stress and to minimize its effects, you can adopt some relaxation exercise like yoga, or you can consider going for a massage after every 2-3 weeks.
These methods will help you a lot in decreasing the effects of stress and will make your life peaceful and stress free. When you are less tense, then you will be able to concentrate even more on your work and will increase your overall productivity.
Secret # 4 - Alternate Health and Medicine Options
Traditional doctors and medicines also have some side effects on your health. You should avoid them as much as possible. If you happen to be suffering from some minor health problems like temperature, flu and
other similar problems, then you should not look for more traditional anti biotics, instead look for some unorthodox medicines. Identify side effect free medicines like homeopathic, massage therapy and other similar methods.
These methods will not also get you rid of that health problem, but these are also made from totally natural elements which make them even healthier for your body. In other alternate medicine options, you can look for;
herbal medicine,
massage therapy,
meditation,
Ayurveda,
reflexology, and
aromatherapy.
Secret # 5 - Sleep Well
Sleeping is another very important aspect of your life. It is the most basic thing which helps your body and brain to relax and get ready for work. If you experience problems in getting a good and proper sleep, then you must do something to make this state better. In my personal experience I have seen people going half mad just because they cannot get proper sleep. In order to make your sleep more proper and better, you need to make sure that you are not taking your work to your bed. Make sure that before going to bed, you have solved all of your office and work problems and even if there is something left, just forget about it for the night. Try to concentrate on getting a good
sleep.
Conclusion
To implement all of the above concepts in your life, you need some self control. You have to learn to live a disciplined life in the first place. You need to make a commitment with yourself that you are going to make your life better, and then follow that commitment to your fullest effort.
Use affirmations to believe that you are living that life of health and fitness (the use of Affirmations is covered in my other article). Believe in yourself and stay motivated. Do not procrastinate your health and fitness routines. Stay committed and get them done always as indicated on your schedule.
Some people try to adopt such schemes as proper diet plan, proper exercise plan but they tend to execute it just for very small period of time and then give up. This will not be very helpful because you need to be very consistent and stick to your plans for proper results. This is the reason that I have described some very easy to adopt things which you can continue doing no matter what your daily challenges may be.
