How will the world of wellness change in the next 10 years? The answer is that it's about to get even more awesome. The following are some trends you should know about and pay attention to — so you can incorporate them into your life and reap the benefits.
DRINK MORE WATER
- Drink more water to stay hydrated.
- Drink more water to lose weight.
- Drink more water to improve skin health and appearance.
- Drink more water to improve brain function, including memory and concentration.
EXPLORE NEW PLACES
Exploring new places is a great way to get out of your comfort zone, try new things and be adventurous. If you're planning on going somewhere for vacation this year, consider doing something different from what you usually do. Taking trips or weekend getaways with friends can also help you stay motivated because it gives them an opportunity to see how hard work has paid off for you!
Drink more water to improve sleep quality and quantity. Drink more water to reduce the risk of certain cancers, including colon, kidney and bladder. Drink more water to reduce the risk of heart disease by lowering blood pressure and reducing cholesterol levels.
PICK UP A NEW SKILL
Learning new skills is a great way to stay young. It keeps your brain active, which helps prevent cognitive decline as you age. It also gives you something fun and productive to do with your time, so it's not just spent watching TV or playing video games.
If learning a new skill sounds like something that could help improve your life, there are plenty of options available! Some popular choices include:
- Learning how to cook healthy meals from scratch
- Taking up knitting or crocheting (which can be done almost anywhere)
- Learning another language like Spanish or French
Find a new hobby. If you’re feeling bored or uninspired, try exploring a new activity. It could be anything—from learning how to play an instrument to taking up a sport. It can also be something as simple as reading more books, watching documentaries and listening to podcasts.
GET OUTSIDE MORE
- Get outside more.
- Find a park or other green space you can visit, even if it's just for an hour. If your city doesn't have great parks, try to find one nearby that does.
- Take your kids to a playground and let them run around and play for awhile--it will do them good!
- Go for a walk with friends and family members, whether it's around town or through nature (or both!). This helps people get exercise while also enjoying each other's company; best of all, it's free!
- Go for bike rides with friends too--this is another way to get exercise while enjoying nature as well as having fun with others who share similar interests as yours!
If none of these ideas sound appealing but still want some time outside without spending any money at all? Then why not go swimming? Or, learning a new instrument like the guitar, piano or violin Learning how to make art like paintings or drawings Learning about different cultures by taking a class at your local community center
EAT HEALTHIER
- Eat more vegetables.
- Eat less processed foods.
- Eat less sugar, especially added sugars that are found in sweetened beverages like soda, fruit juices and sports drinks (which can add up to hundreds of empty calories per day).
- Eat more whole foods: fresh fruits and vegetables; eggs; seafood (such as salmon or shrimp); nuts/seeds/legumes (like chickpeas) - these are all examples of whole foods! They contain essential vitamins and minerals that help keep your body healthy by supporting digestion, keeping your bones strong and boosting immunity against illness like colds or flus.
MAKE TIME FOR ACTIVITY
- Exercise is a key component of wellness.
- Make time for exercise by prioritizing it and planning for it in your schedule, rather than thinking about it as something that's not important enough to make room for.
- There are many ways to incorporate exercise into your daily routine, from walking to work instead of taking public transportation or using the stairs instead of the elevator at work, to using apps that track your steps throughout the day (and help you set goals).
- Try different types of physical activity until you find one that suits your lifestyle--you might enjoy group classes or solo workouts at home with an app.
If you want to get started with exercise, try walking for at least 30 minutes a day. If that feels like too much or too little, then try setting your phone alarm for 15 minutes and see how it goes. You might be surprised by how much better you feel after just a short time spent moving around!
Takeaway:
- Improve your health
- Feel happier
- Improve your fitness
- Make new friends, or get out of the house and meet people in ways you haven't before (like joining a sports team, taking a class)
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but it’s also the most skipped. It’s not hard to see why people often skip breakfast; they don’t have time or they aren’t hungry when they wake up. But if you want to lose weight, eating breakfast might be one of the best things you can do for your diet! Research shows that people who eat breakfast are more likely than those who don't eat it at all or wait until lunchtime to start their morning meal.
