Some people don’t have the time or energy to go to the gym or to exercise. But there are some habits that we can incorporate into our everyday lives to help keep us well and healthy:
Take 10,000 steps or walk 5 miles per day. Walking burns calories and cut cholesterol, strengthens back muscles and bones, slims your waist, lowers blood pressure, shapes and tones your legs and butt, reduces risk of heart disease and diabetes, reduces stress, improves mood and sleep, and it’s FREE.
Drink adequate water daily. The most common rule of thumb people follow with regards to water intake is 8 8-ounce glasses per day. However, new research suggests that this varies based on the person’s weight, activity level and climate. The 8 glasses should be the minimum. What I personally do is I bring a water jug so that I always remember to sip water every couple of minutes.
- Adequate water intake prevents dehydration, cleans out the body, promotes healing processes and helps control weight. (www.wikihow.com)
A colleague of mine brought this from Italy. It's a really smart concept... take a closer look!
On one side are the pretzels and Nutella Ferrero dip. On the other side, there's the lemon juice. A straw is attached on the side of the package. It's a complete snacking experience in one handy package!
… your family? 
… your bestfriend? 
… your first love? 
… your favorite tv show that made you laugh and made you cry, made you think and made you giddy?
No, it's not an Ipod. It's a pedometer or step counter. Obviously, it counts the number of steps you take.
