Basic Steps to developing a healthy lifestyle.



Basic Steps to developing a healthy lifestyle.

Written by R. A. Stewart

There are three key parts to developing a healthy lifestyle. You cannot have one without the other two. If one of these key areas is the weak link then it will undermine and affect the other two. It is imperative to pay close attention to each key factor and make adjustments as you see fit. As they say, “If you stick with the status quo then nothing changes.”  With that being said, let's take a look at these three keys to living your best healthy lifestyle and making the most of your abilities.

1. Mindset

This is an important issue to deal with. If you are not in the right frame of mind for training then all of your efforts to get fit will be all in vain. You may start out with good intentions, and your training is going well, then you have a bad day at the office, or a domestic issue at home and may not feel like training at all. It is important to carry on regardless of the circumstances you are in if you have set yourself a goal. Having friends who will support you on this journey will encourage and motivate you. Participating in the weekly 5k park runs on Saturday morning will motivate and encourage you because you will be joined by hundreds of others who share your interests.

2, Diet

A poor diet will undermine your efforts to get fit. In order for you to get the most out of your fitness regime it is important to eat healthy foods and cut out unhealthy ones. Replacing unhealthy food choices with healthy ones is the second step towards a healthy lifestyle. Buying junk food because it is cheaper is a false economy. You do not get much nutrition value for your money. You do not need to go cold turkey and make drastic changes all at once. If you made one change to your dietary habit per week then that is 52 changes which you have made in a year. It takes 21 days for a habit to be formed so by committing to each change for three weeks you have formed a new habit.

3, Exercise

Exercise is the third component of a healthy lifestyle. Lack of exercise will undermine the benefits of a good diet. Whatever form your chosen exercise takes, it will do you the world of good. Even someone with a physical disability can get involved in some form of exercise. We just need to see the Paralympics and how the athletes have overcame their particular disability to perform at the highest level. A negative person will find an excuse, a positive person will find a way.

Participating in sport is taking your exercise to the next level. There are clubs in your community which you could join. Most cities around the world run their own 5k Park run on a Saturday morning. If you are not up to running that distance then you could start training for it. 

It is important to run at your own pace and try not to compete with someone who may be several levels above you. Just run your race and when you are confident that you have reached a certain level of fitness that will enable you to compete with others who were previously at a higher level than you were then by all means go for it.

It is all about taking one step at a time, which will eventually lead to achieving your fitness goals which is good for your self-esteem.

Finding your why

Finding your why A why is what gives us motivation to do something. It is the fuel which energizes us and gives us the enthusiasm to lift us over the obstacles which stand in our way. Having a "Why" gets us out of bed in the morning. It is living your life with a purpose. How do I find my "Why"? Some people find it by a life-changing event such as a tragedy or other event which affects someone in their own family. In the 1970s a solo mother began campaigning for tighter restrictions and safer use of fireworks after an incident where someone was hurt by fireworks. She became known as the fireworks lady. She traveled around the country giving talks in schools for the safe use of fireworks. The laws governing the sale and use of fireworks in New Zealand are regarded as the most stringent in the world. During the early 2000s a university student in New Zealand was murdered by her professor whom she was in a relationship with. The student's name was Sophie Elliot. He...

Learning to accept yourself is the real key to success

Image
Written by R. A. Stewart Not being accepted by others is one thing, but not accepting yourself is another altogether.  You may not have any control over people who do not accept you but you do have control over whether you choose to accept yourself; in other words, accepting yourself is a choice, it has nothing to do with your circumstances, how you are treated, or the body you have. The weight loss industry and the self help industry are worth billions. People are spending a fortune in the hope of becoming something other than who they really are.  For so many people this is an unrealistic goal.  Wouldn’t it be far better if these people made the most of who they are rather than try to change something which is not within their nature. All animals have their own nature; some like to run such as race horses and greyhounds, some kill other animals, others fly or swim. Try changing the nature of any kind of animal species and see how far you can go.  Some goodie Two s...
