HEALTHY LIFESTYLE TIPS
It's January and a new year, and there's no better time to start getting into lots of healthy habits to live your best life! I fully agree that we are all different, and that it might not be in your interest to get into healthy habits, I completely respect that. But, I do want to say that if you want to feel better, look better, feel more energised and productive and hopefully also feel much better once you get older - then these are some of the tips that might help you achieve all of that!
Here you go, some healthy lifestyle tips:
Get enough sleep
Preferably 7-8 hours each night, and the best is to get to bed before 10pm. Turn of the television and electronics at least 1 hour before going to bed since the electric blue light disturbs your body and makes it harder for you to fall asleep. Read a book, or have a good talk with a loved one instead.
Eat alkaline food
Eat plenty of vegetables and beans! Especially the green vegetables (broccoli, spinach, kale etc.).Highly alkaline food: - green vegetables- green salad and seaweed- potatoes- sprouts, nuts and seeds- sesame- and flax seeds- almonds and brazil nuts- pumpkin seeds and coconut- garlig, turmeric and ginger- avocado- herbal teas, green and white tea- olive-, coconut- and flaxseeds oil 
Avoid acidic food
Meat, sugar, candy, sodas. If your body gets too much acidic food it creates an unhealthy and inflamed environment in your body where sickness, pain and overweight can grow.Very acidic food: - meat- eggs- sugar and honey- artificial sweeteners- vinegar- dairy products - especially cheese- industrial processed food- junkfood- margarine- frying oil- candy and cakes- alcohol- black tea and ordinary coffee- sodas- fruitjuice- energy and sportsdrinks
Drink lemon water
When you wake up in the morning drink some hot water with the juice from half a lemon. This helps the digestion and it detoxes the body. After drinking this wait at least 1/2 hour before eating breakfast.
Drink lots of water during the day, but not while you are eating
Drink 2 litres of water or more during the day, but not while you are eating since this disturbs the digestion process and the absorption of the nutrients from the food.
Chew your food thoroughly and eat slowly
Chew your food until it becomes liquid before you swallow it. If you don't chew the food enough, acid will be created in the body.
Exercise - move your body
Move your body, get your pulse up and sweat out all the toxins from your body. Moving, fx through yoga, also massages your organs and makes your body function better and creates more blood flow and improves digestion. It also releases endorphins which is a "happy hormone", which makes you feel happier.
Drink herbal tea
Switch the coffee out with some herbal tea (fx green tea).
Mental health
Think happy and nice thoughts about yourself. Start to really love yourself and your body just as it is right now. Think that you want to take good care of your body by filling it with lots of healthy food, so it will be fresh and healthy all your life. Look yourself in the mirror each day and tell yourself that you love you <3
Do things that you love
Read, relax, go for a walk in nature, dance, talk, go to a spa a sauna - do things that makes you happy and spend your time with people who makes you feel good and who you love.
Take care of your body
Use natural products, and smear your body into oils. Drybrush your skin. Give yourself a nice oil massage on the body, in the face and your scalp Take a nice bath, scrub your skin. Just relax.
