Some of the you already have nailed, Congratulations.
Which one can you implement this week to have the biggest impact on your focus, performance and health?
7 most effective ways a drop of philosophy can make healthy decisions last:
Responsibility to be accountable - Taking responsibility for one's own health is a critical aspect of staying healthy. Research shows that individuals who take responsibility for their health have better health outcomes (1). For example, an individual who eats a healthy diet exercises regularly and avoids smoking is more likely to maintain good health than someone who does kid themselves on saying they try and do their best, knowing fine well... when no one watching...
Water Habit - Drinking plenty of water is crucial for maintaining good health make it a habit that's staged to your routine. A study found that "drinking water can help with weight loss, improve skin health, and improve cognitive function" (5). Start your day with at least a int of clear water cold or warm.
Philosophy of health - Following a healthy lifestyle is the foundation of good health as a core value is key. According to a study, "People who follow a healthy lifestyle are 82% less likely to die from cardiovascular disease and 65% less likely to die from cancer than those who have an unhealthy lifestyle" (2)
Nature, Air & Sun - Grounding in nature, forest bathing or a little while in the sun does the world of good not just to your mental health. Moderate sun exposure can be beneficial for health. A study found that "vitamin D, which is produced in the skin through sun exposure, plays a crucial role in bone health and immune function" (7).
Discipline of Fasting - A study found that "fasting for 24 to 72 hours can significantly reduce inflammation, improve immune function, and improve the overall health of the body" (3). Fasting can be a helpful tool in treating illness.
Injury - Hot and cold therapy can be an effective treatment for injuries. A study found that "heat therapy followed by cold ( under 10C) can increase blood flow, reduce muscle stiffness, and decrease pain associated with injury" (4).
Processed foods - Processed oils sugars and additives are addictive and can have negative health effects. Common sense, high integrity choices over shortcuts that do not pay off. A study found that "trans fats, which are found in hydrogenated oils, can increase the risk of heart disease, while oxidized oils can contribute to inflammation in the body" (6).
