The Basics - A Good Lifestyle

1) Get a good night's sleep - It is through sleeping that the body fully rests and repairs damaged cells. Sleep replenishes the body, so be sure to get at least 8 hours of steady sleep in a day. Having 8 hours of sleep but having very late still won't give you a quality rest. Start reshaping your body clock. Early to sleep, early to rise!

2) Hydration - Water is your basic need so be sure to have plenty of it! A person would require an average intake of 8 glasses a day. Water helps body organs work normally. Do remember, when you are thirsty, you are already dehydrated!

3) Eat right - A balanced diet would be best to go about your day. Eat at least three times a day. Each meal should have your "go, grow, and glows". Your body also needs to be served with fruits and vegetables to help it cleanse itself. Skipping breakfast is unhealthy and it MAKES YOU FAT. Breakfast is the most important meal and it is where most of your energy for the day comes from. Skipping breakfast forces you to eat more during lunch and dinner. The calories gained from those meals will not be entirely burned and will settle while you sleep! Cheat your way out to reward yourself once in a while to keep you going.

4) Make exercise a daily habit - Have proper exercise routines for at least 30 minutes a day to maintain your shape. Household chores are good ways to exercise your body, too. Studies show that doing household chores lengthens your lifespan by a few years.

5) Never back down - Most people just chicken out. Make sure you don't!
