Tips and Tricks for a Healthy Life

by kevin in Healthy Living 0 comments
Although the term ‘healthy’ has been more often than not attributed towards the physical appearance of a person, it doesn’t tell the whole story. Sure, it is a PART of a person living a healthy life, but it certainly isn’t the whole and sole attribute which defines it. With that being said, here are some of the tips and tricks towards a healthy life (or living, whichever you prefer): 1. No addiction: Addictions are one of the major nasties which deteriorate your health on both your mental and physical. We agree that getting rid of the alcohol you drink every now and then or that cigarette you smoke every time you come home from work isn’t a walk in the park, it is necessary to get rid of that habit in order to progress towards a healthier way of living. Do not ditch the addiction entirely, since that has mostly led to failure. Instead, gradually reduce the frequency in which you use the substance you are addicted to. 2. Vaccines: It goes without saying that you should absolutely go for vaccines as it provides a lot of benefits for the money you are paying. In some cases, such as polio, […]

Fitness: Exercise can’t outrun a bad diet

by admin in Healthy Living 0 comments
The idea that some extra exercise can protect you from the consequences of dietary vices is a tempting one, but there’s little evidence to support it. We’ve all justified a deep dive into a big bag of chips or a pint of ice cream after a workout by telling ourselves we earned it. But did we really? The idea that spending a few extra minutes on the treadmill protects you from the consequences of dietary vices is a tempting one. Yet there’s little proof that an unhealthy diet can be mitigated by regular exercise — a theory recently tested by a group of researchers from Australia, the U.S., Italy and Norway. Using a large sample of British adults, the multinational team reviewed the impact of exercise and diet, independently and jointly, on all-cause mortality, cardiovascular disease and several types of cancer. Armed with the health history and self-reported diet and exercise habits of 346,627 study subjects age 40 to 69, the researchers cross-referenced the data against local death records over the course of a decade. The idea was to link the cause of death to baseline health records gathered 10 to 11 years earlier and gauge the impact of diet, […]

Mind-Body Connection: 10 Facts About How It Impacts Substance Use And Mental Health

by admin in Mind & Body 0 comments
How Does The Mind-Body Connection Work? The mind-body connection works by the feedback loop between your body and your mind. The way that you feel influences the way that you think and vice versa. The mind-body connection is the communication between your thoughts and your feelings. While you might think of your feelings as something that exists in your mind, the word “feeling” implies a physical sensation. Your feelings are a bodily experience. All of your feelings have bodily sensations that define them. For example, when you are nervous, you might feel it in your gut. Your heart rate might go up. Your posture might change from open to closed as you attempt to protect yourself. When you feel confident, you might feel relaxed, standing up tall and proud. Your breath and heart rate are controlled. You might feel calm and strong. Your thoughts will follow how you feel.   How you feel influences what you think. What are your thoughts like when you feel nervous versus confident? You might think the world is ending when you feel anxious. You might see yourself as weak or in danger. When you feel confident, you might have thoughts that you are powerful and resilient. Sometimes, you […]

5 Incredible Ways Exercise Improves Brain Function

by admin in Mind & Body 0 comments
When you think of exercising more, what trade-offs come to mind? A slimmer physique, improved cardiovascular health, maybe even the ability to turn heads in that bathing suit you’ve been dying to get into? But have you thought about what exercise is doing for your brain? Numerous studies have proven that exercise, particularly the kind that gets your heart pumping, has a whole host of positive effects on the brain, even to the point of enhancing its structure. Here are just five of the ways exercise improves your already miraculous brain.   1. Exercise Turns Your Brain into a Pleasure Powerhouse Exercise stimulates a rich concoction of feel-good chemicals in the brain, including dopamine, serotonin, endocannabinoids, and norepinephrine, according to the American Psychological Association (apa.org), each of which has different roles in managing stress, enhancing feelings of wellbeing, and promoting an active interest in life. If that wasn’t enough, exercise increases the number of dopamine receptors in the brain, meaning not only is your brain producing more of these happy chemicals, but it’s also better at enjoying them. According to the Greater Good Science Center (greatergood.berkeley.edu), exercise is so good at delivering pleasure to the brain that it’s successfully used […]

It includes the way you feel about yourself, the quality of your relationships, and your ability to manage your feelings and deal with difficulties. Anyone can experience mental or emotional health problems — and over a lifetime, many of us will. One in five Canadians lives with mental-health or substance-use problems. These tips can help you elevate your mood, become more resilient and enjoy life more.   1. Make social connection — especially face-to-face — a priority Phone calls and social networks have their place, but few things can beat the stress-busting, mood-boosting power of quality face-to-face time with other people.   2. Stay active Staying active is as good for the brain as it is for the body. Regular exercise or activity can have a major impact on your mental and emotional health, relieve stress, improve memory, and help you sleep better.   3. Talk to someone Talk to a friendly face. In-person social interaction with someone who cares is one of the most effective ways to calm your nervous system and relieve stress.   4.
