1. Practicing GRATITUDE
If we are beginning our days and focusing on gratitute, love and joy, it can drastically improve our health and immune system. It instantly reduces stress hormones that rises when we focus on negative thoughts. Its like a spinning wheel, the more we stress, the more prone we are to disease.
2. Eat Healthy
I know, I am craving carbs more than ever. Even carbs I don't like. Jump off the hamster wheel and prep some healthy lunch and dinners. If it's ready, we may be more apt to make that healthy choice. If you are like me, I NEED my routine, meditation, vitamins and walking. When I skip one of these steps, I usually skip them all. At this time, more than ever, it is so important to practice proper hygiene and exercise to optimize the well being of our bodies. Photo credit: Wikipedia
3) Rest
Put away the screens early so that you can fall asleep faster and try to get approximately 7 to 8 hours daily.
4) Meditation
Practice meditation, prayer, deep breathing, yoga, pilates, listen to
music, play the video in your mind of previous peaceful travels or whatever lowers your shoulders and quiets your mind.
5) Don't over medicate
I enjoy a glass or two of wine in the evenings, but we need to be careful not to deplete our immune systems by overindulging.
Sometimes we can forget that we have the power to elevate our joy, love and gratitude.
We CAN DO THIS TOGETHER and let's share these tips or other you think will inspire others.
One day soon there will be family gatherings, ballgames, school, graduations, weddings, travel, hugs, etc.
