Daily Healthy Tips

When it comes to being healthy and fit, it's the little things you do every day that make a difference. Here are the things I try to do to stay strong, lean, and full of energy so I can live a long, healthy life. Some are harder to stick to than others (like exercising before work), but when I make an effort, I always feel better. I'm curious to know if you're doing them, too, and if you're not, you may learn some new tips to leading a healthier life.

There are a few healthy habits which can be followed in daily routine life. These habits will improve blood circulation in the body and also increases the energy levels and fitness.

Exercise

If you are planning to add a daily dose of exercise to your routine, this is the right time to start. There is nothing like an early morning walk to start with. A good brisk walk of about 30 minutes will recharge your batteries for the day.

Half way round you could also exercise your joints by gently moving them around in different directions. If you are in your 30s, you could also jog for a brief while. People with arthritis must avoid jogging or too brisk walk. Avoid polluted areas for a walk. A couple of rounds in a nearby park will pump your spirits up.

If you are game for company, motivate your neighbors to join. Some like walking alone. Such people can try taking a Walkman along and listen to some good morning ragas.

A good walk in the evenings too is beneficial for health. When exercising outdoors in the winter time, choose all weather, well cushioned flat-soled shoes and thick cotton socks.

Breathe Well

Did you know that the average person reaches peak respiratory function and lung capacity in their mid 20's? Then they begin to lose respiratory capacity: between 9 and 25% for every decade of life! So, unless you are doing something to maintain or improve your breathing capacity, it will decline, and with it, your general health, your life expectancy, and for that matter, your spirit too!

Be aware of your breathing. There�s a pretty good chance you aren�t breathing correctly. At rest, when sleeping, while running � you can probably breathe different and breathe better. Most people have unhealthy breathing habits? They hold their breath or breathe high in the chest or in a shallow, irregular manner. These patterns have been unconsciously adopted, accidentally formed, or emotionally impressed. Certain "typical" breathing patterns actually trigger physiological and psychological stress and anxiety reactions!

Eat the right food

While we eat what we like and relish, we also need to fulfill the desires of our tummies. Your digestive system needs some support and hence, try and consume as much raw vegetables and fruits as possible. 51% of every meal should be Raw food. While this is ideal, it is practically impossible for most. But those who follow this will definitely see a huge difference in their lifestyle within 4-5 weeks in terms of reduced weight, active and ability to think better.
