We all want to feel our best, right? But sometimes it can be hard to know where to start. By focusing on three key areas – nutrition, exercise, and stress management – we can improve our overall health and wellbeing. At INHSTL, we’re here to support you in getting these things right!
Proper Diet
Our diet plays a huge role in how we feel. Eating enough protein and fat and getting a variety of fruits, veggies and whole foods provides our bodies with the nutrients it needs to function properly. On the other hand, things like processed foods and added sugars contribute to chronic health conditions like obesity and heart disease.
Regular Exercise
The next component is exercise. It feels GOOD to move our bodies for a reason. Regular exercise not only improves cardiovascular health, but it also helps to maintain a healthy weight and reduce stress. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise, like brisk walking or cycling, most days of the week. Not feeling up for it today? Pro tip: pull out the yoga mat and do a little stretching and mobility work. This gets your blood flowing and decreases stress. Which leads us to….
Stress Management
Last but not least, stress management. Chronic stress can take a toll on our physical and mental health, leading to conditions like anxiety and depression. To manage stress, find activities that you enjoy and that help you relax, like yoga, meditation, or reading. Also, make sure you’re getting enough sleep, because lack of sleep can contribute to stress and fatigue. Under more stress than usual right now? We recommend trying Cryotherapy. A few of these powerful 3-min sessions over the course of the month can reduce inflammation and stress (and it burns a lot of calories)!
By focusing on these things we can take control of our overall health. It might not be the most exciting thing to do, but trust us, it’s worth it. So, start small, make a few changes and see how you feel. If you’re looking for any supplement recommendations to support your health or want to finally try Cryotherapy, give us a call at 314-293-8123
