LIVE HEALTHY by Gift Jonah

Another write up from my friend, if you missed her article last week, then do well to follow up every Tuesday and Thursday. You are sure to learn something new.

Hi guys... How has your week been?

An Arabian proverb says “He who has health has hope and he who has hope has everything”.

Today I will like to share some tips on how to live healthy and stay fit. It works for me and I am positive it will work for you as well.

Reduce Stress: Avoid being involved in too many activities. Spend at least 30 minutes a day doing something that helps you relax. You can watch a funny movie or comedy, listen to soothing music, meditate, take a deep breath intermittently etc.

Move More: Find more ways to move your body. If your job keeps you in one position for too long, endeavour to take few minute break to walk around and stretch. Walk instead of taking a bike, chase your kids etc.

Eat for tomorrow; not for today: Cut your fat intake, drink an average of eight glasses of water per day. Control what you eat; don’t be controlled by what you eat. There’s no law against leaving leftovers in your plate.

Sleep some more: Give your body adequate rest. If you spend long hours in traffic, get someone to drive while you sleep.

Keep a positive outlook: Whatever happens, maintain a positive attitude. There’s a connection between healthy living and having a cheerful outlook. A cheerful disposition is good for your health. Choose to see the good side of everything that happens to you.

Laugh more: Laughing helps you feel better about the future. So as often as you can, pause, take a deep breathe and laugh.
