Useful advice on beauty and health

Regular exercise.

Walk everywhere it is possible to walk by foot. Spend as much time in the woods as it is possible. It is ideal to practise fast walking up the hill. Do you sleep as much as you need to?

On average it is ideal to sleep 8 hours, best to fall asleep before midnight. If you are having troubles sleeping, you need to concentrate on rituals and stick to them.

Diet?

Reduce your caloric intake. I am trying to follow intermittent fasting 16:8, it suits my needs. The best time for me to eat is 11-19. Reduce the intake of red meat, sugars, salt and eat at least one apple a day. It is a little bit more complicated for me because I have food allergies, I do not consume gluten, eggs, garlic and I also watch my histamine intake, but I do love vegetables and fruits in all forms, so it is not such a big problem.

Don’t drink alcohol!

Alcohol is the enemy of healthy skin and health overall. Some do recommend a glass of red wine to refill resveratrol, I would rather eat grapes.

Don’t smoke ?

Reconsider taking supplements and vitamins, if you are not taking enough in your diet. Studies show amazing and positive effects of vitamins (D, C groups, resveratrol, melatonin, carnosine, EGCG). Study and find out what suits you the best.

Meditate.

I breathe as Wima Hoffa on YouTube.

Winterisation.

This year I did not get into a lake but I use cold water in the shower as a part of my morning rituals.

Take probiotics.

Healthy digestive system has amazing effects on our immunity and health overall.

Love yourself and spoil yourself.

This is a safe place to get creative. I for example like going into the forest, into the woods, moisturize, cook, clean, I find joy in learning and education, mostly when I am learning Spanish, but sometimes I just lay and don’t do nothing at all, other times I listen to podcasts and watch Netflix with Vilo.

Surround yourself with people that love you and you love them. Don’t get jealous, indulge.
