Healthy Lifestyle Advice

Society these days controls our idea of being 'healthy' more than we know it. Each day we scroll social media and we see influencers with these amazing toned bodies claiming they have the 'Quickest ways to loose weight'. Society has painted the picture that to have a healthy body a women has to have toned muscles and a perfect hour glass figure.For a man they must have these big biceps and predominant 6 pack. Also that this can be achieved in a matter of days.

But I believe this is simply not the case. - These bodies are not realistic - They are not sustainable.
We cannot believe that after drinking these Detox teas or eating a protein bar and doing a 5 minute Abb blast that this is going to keep us healthy in the long run. We should be adopting healthy habits that are going to last for our whole lives - Not just for the 'Summer body'.

A healthy lifestyle is for me -

Is eating a balanced diet that fuels our body - Full of nutrients and energy - Enjoying the food we are eating and not restricting ourselves - Food should be enjoyable and we should love creating strong fuel for our bodies.

It is enjoying being active - Exercising our bodies should be fun and not a chore or simply a habit- But a time in our day in which we look forward too .

It is being happy with yourself - enjoying your daily life - eating nutrious foods and keeping active -but not feeling like it is a CHORE but something you ENJOY doing.

/This will all take time - To be truely positive within yourself does not happen over night but over a period you will see a change - A happy one.

A happy mind leads to a happy heart➹

A healthy lifestyle has to be sustainable for life - not just for a quick weight loss fix which in the long run will just catch you up again. So please dont compare yourself to those online. Create your OWN healthy lifestyle. One that is natural and works for you. - No one else matters

I hope you are all well and are staying safe. This time is difficult but we will get through it and the little things will matter so much more. Stay Positive. 1.

5 Chill Day Ideas

I am the WORST for feeling like I need to be doing something all the time. Feeling like everyday I need to be out exploring, living my quote 'best life' and also showing the world that I am. Staying indoors all day just having a lazy day just seems impossible for me, maybe this is just me that struggles with this haha! But I can't seem to find comfort in chilling out at home and taking a day to rest. Often if I have no plans one day, my head will start to wander into a feeling of worrying and self loathing. I can't sit still, I get panicked and fill will stress.  This constant need to be out somewhere and achieving something has got my into a horrible circle of spending money just to entertain myself.
