6 HEALTHY HABITS
BREATHE
When do you take a minute to really breathe? Research says that listening to classical music and dimming the lights can help support your breathing. Taking a nice deep breath and yawning can increase the oxygen to your body and make you feel better.
EXERCISE
It's funny to me to think that exercise boosts energy. Exercise can be tiring but in the long run the benefits are amazing. With regular physical activity you improve your muscle strength and boost your endurance. And when your heart and lungs work more efficiently, you have more energy!
LOVE
Don't argue, love through your disagreements. A study by Ronald Glazer and Jan Kiecolt-Glaser, in which couples were observed during disputes showed that a more loving, positive interaction had higher immediate immune function. Dr. Gonzaga says, the key to positive conflict resolution is productively engaging in conversation.
LIVE
Live for today. Sometimes we get so caught up in our past that we aren't paying attention to our present day. Stop thinking for a moment and look around you at the many small blessings you have in your life.
PRAY
Good communication is essential to a good relationship. If we start with a simple daily prayer, it opens up our hearts. Some people pray in the morning to start their day and others finish their night with a prayer habit.
BELIEVE
"Changing habits is fundamental to changing your life. Everything you repeatedly do, say and think is as a direct result of your habits. To enjoy permanent, positive change in your life, you must change your negative beliefs and their associated habits," says Tania Kotsos. Believe in possibilities!
