Attitudes are more important than facts, once said writer Karl Menninger. Many years earlier, American author Dale Carnegie had already said, "Believe that you can change your life, and it will come to fruition."
Many homeopathic and allopathic doctors have already confirmed that patients with positive attitudes were more likely to fight serious illness. Another unanimity concerns preventive medicine, good eating habits, physical exercise that also elevates the quality of life, thus preventing physical illness and psychological disorders.
The American Journal of Epidemiology has published studies at Johns Hopkins University in the United States that indicate four beneficial habits for strengthening health. They are: exercise regularly, maintain weight, follow the Mediterranean diet and not smoke. Only these four attitudes, according to studies, can reduce the risk of death from any cause by 80%. The study was conducted over a period of eight years.
Cardiologist Daniel Ramiro Silva often points out to his patients social habits and antimonotonic exercises. Many diseases are a reflection of bad habits, many are linked to the psychological. Fear, resentment, low self-esteem, impatience, intransigence are not diseases, but they can turn?
Below is a selection of simple attitudes that can transform your life:
1. Make your bed
It sounds basic, or even silly, but starting the day in bed gives your brain a sense of organization and productivity. On returning home the bed will be well made to welcome you to another well-deserved night's sleep.
2. Stretch yourself
One time in an interview singer Adriana Calcanhoto said that one of her crazes was to stretch in the morning "so that the day doesn't start shortened", he justified. This habit is highly effective for awakening the body and giving mood and should be one of the things you do every day.
3. Praise someone
A compliment may be short, but if it is sincere it can improve someone's day. We like to be recognized, either for our abilities or for any choice of the day. If you have already received a compliment that changed your day, think that you can also offer that good feeling. Praise someone at least once a day and spread that good vibe.
4. Laugh
If you don't laugh at least once a day, there is something seriously wrong. Laughter is very powerful in the long run, in the short term it can take away pain, feeling sick, because laughter or a smile sends a message to the brain that everything is fine. Laughing is the best thing you can do in life, and it's free. Just find a reason every day and let yourself be infected.
5. Give yourself a gift
A new outfit, a perfume, is always good if you value yourself and respect yourself. Donate old garments that are not good or yellow with balls, the same goes for stained tablecloths and sheets and utensils whose lifespan has passed. Take a week off, take an unexpected weekend trip, or set aside 15 minutes at the end of the day to keep your mind free of worry.
6. Work out
It may be hard to go to the gym every day, but one of the daily habits you should cultivate is to exercise. Worth a bike ride at night, a lunchtime walk, a jog in the morning, as your metabolism accepts better. According to Daniel, exercise is a? Natural drug? and without risks, releases adrenaline and endorphin. It makes you feel good in the short and long term and is a great way to stay healthy.
7. Remember Good Feelings
The author of the book? Happier? (Happier) Tal Ben Shahar suggests an exercise: look at a picture in which he smiles and ask himself what made her so happy. A date with friends or relatives? The beautiful scenery? Then imagine what you can do to repeat the same feeling or situation in the future.
8. Try something new
Every day try to discover a new flavor, make a new way, try another combination. They can be little things like a new popsicle flavor, a new coffee brand or hitchhiking or walking. These little things stimulate creativity, stimulate the brain. They give you other perspectives on life, put you in a new angle. By trying something new every day, you are living a little longer each day.
9. Make a? RAK?
As in the classic movie "Chain of Good", try to make one RAK a day. RAK represents a "random act of kindness," done anonymously to someone you don't know and expecting nothing in return. They can be minor or major acts, take advantage of the opportunities life gives you to help.Taking a daily RAK will not only make you and your recipient feel good, but it will make the world a better place to live.
10. Say? I love you?
Surely your parents, siblings, or children would love to receive a call just to say that you love them. This short and meaningful phrase should be spoken every day, if not with words, with gestures. Just don't let a single day pass without telling those you love how important they are to you.
11. Be Grateful
The best way to get rid of anguish and annoyance is to give thanks for what you have. You must be happy because not everyone has the same opportunities in life as you. Before going to sleep, waking up or in an extreme situation, lie down (as it is almost impossible to get stressed while lying down) and mentally list 10 things you are grateful for. Can it be from your iron health, your achievements, the presence of the people you love and also the small joys of everyday life like the warmth of your bed, a friendly hug?
12. Make plans for tomorrow
In a popular parable a teacher presented a glass to his students asking if it was full or empty. At the answer that it was empty, he replied that the glass was full of air. Then he put stones in the glass, his students said that now the glass was full. The master then threw sand between the stones and this time the students said without a doubt that the glass was full. Then the master poured water that filled the voids between the stones and the sand. The lesson behind this metaphor is that no matter how busy your schedule is, you can always make room for things, or people we like. By planning the next day, you can make room for the things that matter.
