10 Easy Tips For a Long And Healthy Life.
Here are ten tips on how to live a long and healthy life. In addition, the same lifestyle that helps you to avoid illness also helps you to lose weight:
1. Get Enough Exercise.
Regular exercises will improve the energy systems of the body, resulting in a finely tuned stamina level which will help you in performing your daily tasks more efficiently.
2. Eat healthy Food.
Eating regular meals and avoiding frequent gorging on snack foods is yet another healthy habit. The logic is that if you eat regularly, you will crave less for eating fast food, ensuring that your body is free from toxins, which invade the immune system slaughtering all white cells which come in their way.
3. Drink Water.
Staying hydrated is essential for good health. It helps the body regulate itself and stay viable.
4. Get enough SLEEP.
This may sound simple, but many people stay up late even when their body is telling them that it is time to sleep. Yoga and Ayurvedic doctors also say that it is better to sleep in the night and be active during the day.
5. Keep your weight under control.
Keeping your weight under control can help you live longer, and healthier, by helping you avoid the conditions that play havoc with your body. Keeping your weight down will lower your risk of diabetes, which in turn, can lead to high blood pressure, blindness, the loss of limbs, kidney failure and ultimately, death.
6. Exercise your Mind.
keeping your mind stimulated with reading and interesting projects is a great way to find context and satisfaction in life, as well as keeping things exciting for you.
7. Stop smoking and limiting alcohol.
Smoking pumps nicotine in your body, to which you eventually get addicted to. Nicotine acts as a stimulant which increases blood pressure and the heart rate thereby causing you to breathe fast, at the same time constricting the arteries. It also suppresses your diet. Alcohol contains ethanol, which again has harmful effects on the body's cognitive functioning. Thus, avoiding the two will help you in staying fit always.
8. Get up early every day.
Once again the old proverb, “Early to bed, early to rise makes a person healthy, wealthy and wise.” I don’t know if it will make you wealthy, but it will certainly make you healthy. Your body needs just enough sleep, not too much and not too little.
9. Be positive.
Good mood and attitude play a big role in how you feel. Approach things at a more relaxed pace to live a longer life. Laugh and don't worry. You'll feel better and may just live longer
10. Meditation.
Your body is linked to your mind. Many of the diseases of this era are psychosomatic. Stress and anxiety take their toll on our physical health. Meditation is a mental exercise which, among other things, allows you to detach yourself from the worries of life. Learn a simple technique and do it regularly.
