The first step in achieving wellness is to create a list of 10 rules you will follow every day. List your ten commandments on paper, realizing that the basic principle of success in wellness is having the self-discipline to stay true to your word. It doesn’t matter what philosophy of life you follow, but you must remain consistent if healthy living occurs. When trying to make a lifestyle change, the most important thing is to visualize what you want, with the possibility of failure. Don’t think each day can be perfect because it won’t be, and it’s not meant to be. Your wellness needs to improve over time — without fail. The list below is just an opportunity for you to discover some ways in which you can live a more balanced and healthier life that serves others as well as yourself:
This blog is about wellness and how we can achieve it in our lives. There are ten commandments mentioned to the reader, which are:
Do you know what you’re doing right now? You’re looking at your body.
So, do you like what you see?
Okay, I know that’s a loaded question.
Lots of us aren’t always in love with our bodies, and that’s not how it should be. We all have different shapes and sizes, so there is no one “right” way to look.
There are some things we can do, though, to feel better about how we look and feel. These 10 commandments focus on ways to keep your body healthy and strong and to live well every day:
Aspire to be well: Work toward a goal of feeling better about yourself and your physical fitness every day. How you look or feel today doesn’t have to be how you’ll look or feel tomorrow if you take the time to make positive changes.
Eat well: Make sure your diet includes many fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and healthy proteins. That has lots of water too! Most adults need about 8 glasses a day or more, depending on their activity level. Drinking water is important for taking care of your skin and getting rid of toxins in the body. Cutting back on sugar and salt can also help keep your body healthy.
When people think of wellness, they often think of weight loss, exercising, and eating right. But wellness is more than that. The word can also be used to describe your attitude towards life—your way of thinking, your outlook on the world, and the environment around you. Achieving wellness in life means living with intention. It’s about feeling good about what you do, making healthy choices, and knowing how your actions affect your well-being.
In a world that tells us to go for things at all costs, it takes courage to live with intention and to set aside what we’re told is important to focus on what’s truly most important to us. By learning to live with purpose, you will become more aware of yourself as a person and an individual. You’ll make decisions based on what you want out of life, not just what everyone else wants from you. And you’ll learn how to break free from the noise of social media, advertisements, and pop culture so that you can find yourself again to enjoy who you are and the life you have. Take time for yourself.
When you make a conscious effort to taste the food you are eating, you’ll be more aware of its flavor and texture, which will help you consume less of it and enjoy it more. This may sound like a small thing, but the little things often have the greatest impact. For example, you’ll find that when you put your fork down between bites or even take a moment between bites to register what’s going on in your mouth, your brain won’t be so quick to say, “I’m still hungry” and make you reach for more. Eating slowly has many benefits. It helps regulate your body’s insulin levels, which is essential for healthy metabolism and energy levels. It also allows your body to produce hormones that curb your appetite and control how much sugar is circulating in your bloodstream.
To savor the taste of food, try meditating on it before taking a bite:
You don’t have to work out every day to fit in, but you need to move. Five days a week, walk or bike to work or take the stairs instead of the elevator. Even when you’re not working out, get up and move every hour. Stretch, walk around your office, or find some other way to spend at least a few minutes every hour on your feet. When it’s time for your workout, try this circuit workout that only takes 6-minutes: Jumping Jacks (1 minute), Push-Ups (1 minute), Squats (1 minute), Trunk Twists (1 minute), Lunges (30 seconds each leg), Plank (30 seconds)
The food we eat is an important part of maintaining our health. Most of us are aware of staying away from fast food, processed food, and sugary items, but it is also important to avoid non-organic food. Organic or pesticide-free foods have fewer chemicals, which might adversely affect your health.
Watch your sugar intake.
Sugar, which is in the form of glucose, binds to blood proteins and can be a risk factor for diabetes. In addition, people with elevated blood sugar levels are at a higher risk of heart disease. Eating too much sugar can also lead to obesity, tooth decay, and other lifestyle illnesses.
Eat more protein
People who consume high protein levels are less likely to suffer from obesity than those who consume low amounts of protein. This is because protein helps you feel full for longer and helps increase muscle mass, thereby helping you burn more calories.
Eat breakfast every day.
Those who skip breakfast tend to eat more calories throughout the day. Breakfast boosts your metabolism, so you burn calories faster and gives you the energy to keep you alert throughout the day.
Chew slowly
Digestion starts in the mouth, where enzyme found in saliva breaks down food, so chewing your food correctly makes digestion easier on your stomach—chewing slowly.
The first step to wellness is a simple one: drink water. In the average person, the body is composed of 60% water. Of course, this number can vary depending on your age, gender, and level of physical activity, but it’s a good rule of thumb to aim for a minimum. Of course, the amount of water your body needs depends on many factors (such as how much you sweat or perspire), so you’ll need to take some time to know how much your body needs on an average day.
When it comes to drinking water, don’t just rely on thirst as an indicator—many people mistake thirst for hunger, which will lead you to eat when you’re not hungry. Some other good ways to track your intake are by noticing your urine output (a pale-yellow color indicates that you’re not drinking enough) or weighing yourself before and after drinking a glass of water. If you’re dehydrated, you’ll lose weight over the day.
By simply making sure that you have a glass of water with every meal and snack throughout the day, you can ensure that your body has enough water in it at all times. Don’t confine yourself to plain old tap water—it’s a good idea to use a filter or purifier.
Breathing deeply is a cornerstone of wellness. At the most basic level, it’s one of the things we should do every day to ensure that our bodies are functioning properly. Since we all breathe automatically, though, it’s easy to forget to focus on it consciously and deliberately. Taking a couple of minutes each day to focus on your breath can help you relax, center yourself, and return to your natural calm state. Find somewhere quiet where you won’t be distracted by other people or things for a few minutes each day. If you’re at work, try the bathroom or a storage closet; if you’re at home, find a room that’s empty or won’t be interrupted for a while (and where you can close the door if necessary).
You may want to sit upright with your eyes closed, but feel free to lie down or even walk around as long as you stay in the same place while focusing on your breathing.
1) Focus on your breath: Bring attention to your breathing. Feel it coming through your nostrils, going into your lungs and chest and filling them up with air. Let the air go slowly to empty as you breathe out before bringing more in. Don’t try to make yourself.
If you think positively, you’ll do things that will make you happy. If you’re doing something that makes you happy, it will radiate from your work and bring happiness to others. When you’re bringing joy to others, you’ll be seen as an important and valuable person. Attaining wellness in life is about more than just physical wellness—it’s about finding balance in all aspects of your life to enjoy yourself and be happy.
Negative emotions are toxic to your body—they can set off chemical reactions in your brain that trigger symptoms like high blood pressure and an increased risk of heart disease. The negative people around you can also hurt your health; avoid letting them drag you down with them by preventing negative influences (and, if necessary, keeping them out of your life).
Negative thoughts are just negative thoughts—you don’t need to take them seriously. You can choose to think positively instead. Remember that all things pass; whatever is going on in your life will eventually subside, so even if you’re going through a rough patch right now, it will be better soon. Focus on that instead of dwelling on the problems at hand and you’ll start feeling better about yourself and those around you.
Talk Positively
When you talk about something repeatedly, whether it’s good or bad, you make it real.
Health is a big deal to me. I’ve struggled my whole life with eating, exercising, and the way I feel. When I was in high school, I got sick, and my dad told me that if I didn’t take care of myself, I would die. After that, things clicked into place, and I started to take care of myself. Now here I am, at age 25, healthy and ready to help others do the same thing.
Self-healing is simple. It’s not just one thing that you do to get better. It’s a lot of little things that add up over time. To start, you need to set some self-healing goals for yourself. These goals should be realistic and achievable so that you can start getting results right away. The first step is clearing your mind and focusing on what your body needs from you to heal itself. Next, ask yourself some questions like:
What makes me feel happy?
What makes me feel sad?
What makes me feel good about myself?
What are my most enormous stresses?
How can I relieve those stresses?
What do I need from other people to help me heal?
Once you have a list of what your body needs from others and what you need for yourself, it’s time to take action.
Meditate. Even if it’s just a short session each day, meditation can profoundly affect your mind, body, and spirit. Just close your eyes and focus on breathing or choose something to meditate on (God, nature, art). Meditation can also be hugely beneficial in coping with pain or stress—take five minutes and shut out everything else around you. At the same time, you focus on inhaling and exhaling deeply and completely
This commandment cannot be stressed enough. We are social beings, and it is important for us to have friends and family to share our happy times and bad times. Socializing helps you become a satisfied, connected, and well-rounded person. You can even make your little community with people of similar mindsets. You can even take up a hobby class or join a book club to connect with like-minded people. This will help you expand your horizons and allow you to make new friends.
