Look After Your Teeth

First, you should make sure that you are looking after your teeth. Your teeth will always have a massive impact on your overall health, which could mean that you struggle with other health issues that tie into this. For instance, issues with your teeth could also mean that you struggle with problems related to migraines. This is because if the teeth don’t fit properly, they can lead to pain radiating to the head. Sites such as tokuyama-us.com can help ensure that you can improve your dental health. 

Get Some Sleep

Next, you should make sure that you are getting the right amount of sleep. A good amount of sleep will do wonders for your health in the long term because it will mean that you are happier about the way you feel when you wake up each morning. If you are struggling to get the right amount of sleep, then we recommend that you think about changing your sleep environment. For instance, if you live in an urban area, you should consider getting blackout blinds. These help eliminate light pollution issues that keep you up throughout the early hours after your head hits the pillow. 

Reduce Stress 

It would be best if you also considered how to reduce the stress you might be feeling daily. There are lots of different signs of high stress. For instance, you could constantly struggle with trauma or tension headaches. Or, you might always feel drained halfway through the day. If you are worried about high levels of stress, try something like meditation to get it under control. 

Kick Bad Habits 

Finally, you could kick bad habits that negatively impact your health and well-being. There are many examples of habits that could be causing you issues here. For instance, you might need help with your diet and eat too many sugary snacks. Or, you may need help keeping your binge-watching under control. Low periods of movement can be just as detrimental to your health as smoking every day. Once you change these negative habits, you’ll see a vast improvement in your health and quality of life. 

I hope this helps you understand some of the critical steps that you should take to improve your health and well-being. In doing so, you can feel better about who you are and your future. If you have children, you’ll also have more energy when spending time with them, leading to more positive interactions.

The great things about Fitbloggin 2016

My weekend was spent at blogging and social media conference, Fitbloggin, in Indianapolis.  I attended this conference two years ago in Savannah and was hooked.  This year I was invited back to the conference to speak about the highs and lows of weight loss.  Although I was speaking, I attended the conference to learn new things, to grow as a blogger and just become an overall better person.   Pre-conference excursions.  The early bird conference attendees could attend an outing to Lifetime Fitness.  My plane landed a bit late so I missed the facility tour but I still got to…

Meeting Dean Karnazes pushes me to set a good example for health.

I didn’t know that when I was searching for a charity for the Chicago Marathon I would find the cause that would change my entire attitude. I had no plans to run Chicago and to be honest I had no desire to ever run this race. But after a rough couple of months and a lot of deep thinking, I decided that I needed to run Chicago to make a statement to myself. I needed to show myself that I had changed, that I’ve grown and I’m no longer afraid to be united or stand alone. And then I found…

My mom’s breast cancer is a moment that changed me

This past weekend I participated in the Gift of Life Color Rush 5k in celebration of my mother who was diagnosed with breast cancer in June 2012. It’s not really something I talked about too much because it was hard and difficult. Also, the fact that my mom has cancer wasn’t something we wanted floating around time. There was only one thing that mattered and that she was getting the best treatment. Spoiler alert: my mom is cancer free! It’s a blessing. After spending some time with my mom, I realized I was the reason she got herself checked because…

Exercising is the LEAST offensive thing I’ve done to my body

A study by the American College of Cardiology came out suggesting the amount I run will increase my chance of death but it’s at the same rate of people who sit on the couch. The National guideline suggests 150 minutes per week of moderate exercise. For me, this isn’t a big deal. Teaching two of my classes is 90 minutes and we all know I work out more than that. I haven’t even made a dent into the 150 minutes with running. But even if I wasn’t running, would more than 150 mins of exercising be harmful to my health?…
