It is simple
to look and feel more beautiful starting today.
You can even put away your pocketbook because
these tips are free.
1. Smile... it will brighten your day and others
around you will feel your energy.
2. Stretch... cats know that total body stretch
does wonders. Follow their example and roll up
slowly out of bed and stretch gently. (For more
tips on stretching here is a great book: AM/ PM
Stretch for Health.)
3. Exercise... at least 20 mins of any continuous
activity will boost your energy level and reduce
bad stressors. You don't even to pay a membership
fee. The key is continuous like a 20min walk or
even mopping your floors. You will look and feel
better.
4. Drink water. No other liquid is quite like it.
Clear your system. 8 glasses are recommended
daily. Your skin will radiate.
5. Rest... you need to take breaks during the day
and sleep at night. Takes breaks away from work
space to keep fresh and focused. Make sure you are
getting sufficient sleep at night since your body
regenerates while you are sleeping. If you are
constantly letting your mind wonder make a
conscious decision to put away thoughts till
morning. It is amazing how good your subconscious
mind listens to your conscious mind (so be careful
what you tell yourself)
6. Do good. When you do something for someone else
without expecting anything in return you benefit
in ways unimaginable. (the key is don't expect
anything in return)
7. Exchange... the money you spend on junk food
for food that will enrich your body and soul.
Start with a simple plan of exchange. Because some
think healthy foods cost more, find out your
spending pattern by making 2 lists:
. foods you like that are healthy that you
normally don't buy
. foods you like that are "junk food"
that you normally buy
calculate the cost of the 2nd list then use this
amount to fund your "healthy" purchase.
(of course you have to say bye-bye to the
"junk food")
8. "Stop and smell the roses". Look for
good in everything. This is a toughie because most
of us are "trained" to look for faults,
errors, shortcomings, defects, etc. Begin with
yourself. List all your assets (not just
physical). Then realize all the good in being you.
Move on to other things around you. Work on this
consciously every day till it becomes a habit.
There is something good about everything and
everyone. Once you realize this you will be
finding good everywhere without even trying.
9. Learn... something new every day. Pick up a
book. or search online. Learn to do something you
have always wanted to do. You can even start for
free by researching online. Search the subject and
start stimulating and enriching your mind today.
10. Reward yourself. Set financial and personal
goals and tag them with rewards for accomplishing
them. (this one may be something special you have
always wanted to do. and not necessarily a
purchase.. But if you have done all the above
maybe go ahead and splurge a little. You deserve
it!
