So, you’ve finally decided to act upon the long-delayed task in your to-do list, i.e., working on your health and fitness. Congratulations, you have won half the battle. Committing to a healthy lifestyle may seem like a very difficult and tedious task that you’ve to be a fitness junkie to do. However, essentially, it only requires you to make a few basic changes in your lifestyle.

Following are the four basic habits that are essential to staying fit and healthy:

1.     Eat Healthy but Do Not Deprive Yourself

It’s okay to give in to your temptations and have a little of your favorite foods that tend to be unhealthy as long as you’re eating right 80% of the time. You shouldn’t deprive yourself of anything if you want healthy eating to be a lifelong commitment. Just follow the 80/20rule in your diet. If you have a healthy diet and source your nutrition from the right foods 80% of the time, you can safely enjoy those unhealthier treats here and there.  Just keep track of your nutrient intake and digestive health. Many people experience digestive issues when they make major changes in their diet. Use our Flatus Relief Mix Tincture for digestive issues as well to promote overall digestive health. It will also help with those acid refluxes you may experience after big, hearty cheat meals.

2.     Get Physically Active

We bet you knew this would be coming next after food advice because deep down, you also know how essential it is to stay physically active for your health and fitness. However, if you’re like most people, you wouldn’t be acting on your knowledge. For most people, exercise is the most detested aspect of a healthy lifestyle because they believe it means spending hours in the gym every day doing strenuous exercises. While that is certainly one way of staying physically active, it isn’t the only way. You can go running or do sports. These are also forms of exercise but far more interesting than exercising in a gym, for most people at least. You can also opt for more engaging forms of workout, like Zumba.

Whatever form of physical activity you decide to incorporate into your life, our herbal tinctures can help you stay on track by providing your body with energy and helping to build your strength and stamina. Choose any of these to avoid being sidetracked due to lack of energy or strength and build your endurance level.

3.     Sleep Well and Enough

It may sound like the easiest thing you have to do when following a healthy lifestyle, but for many, it is difficult to maintain a sleep cycle and get enough good quality sleep every night. Our busy lifestyles and all the distractions around us often take a toll on our sleep, which then have far-reaching impacts on our health. Try to get seven to eight hours of good sleep every night.

If you experience problems in falling or staying asleep, try our Sleepix Tincture. The unique herbal blend will help relax your mind and body and promotes a good night’s sleep.

4.     Take Measures to Deal with Stress

Stress is a major contributing factor to a range of health problems, including but not limited to obesity, hypertension, diabetes, and heart disease. It also affects your sleep, eating patterns, mood, and behaviors.[1] Simply put, if left unchecked, stress can ruin your health, physically, mentally, and emotionally. Therefore, taking measures to deal with stress and anxiety (if you’re struggling with it) is an essential part of your health and fitness journey.

There are several ways to manage stress. You can do yoga, meditate, go on walks in nature, read, paint, or anything that can help break the stream of stressful thoughts, and make you relax. Along with these, do try out our Anti Stress Mix Tincture – it will help you deal with the negative effects of stress on your mind and body.

The Final Word

Committing to a healthy lifestyle doesn’t mean giving up on all good foods forever and munching on salad greens from morning till night, along with spending hours in the gym. You can get in shape and improve your overall health by making just a few basic changes in your lifestyle that we have discussed above. The earlier in life you adopt them, the better. Still, it’s never too late. You can start the journey to improving health and fitness at literally any stage of life. So, no matter what your age or health status is at the moment, don’t hesitate to begin this new journey and commit to a healthy lifestyle. We’re here to assist you with our organic herbal blends!
