Health Hacks For Celebration With Amida Wealth
July with Amida is all about the season of relationships and celebration. We all know that July is a season of ultimate gathering, sunshine, and excitement! That being said, we also know the importance of health. In other words, health being one of Amida’s 5 elements of wealth. So before the big celebration, Amida wanted to share 3 simple health hacks that will encourage healthy habits throughout the month of celebration.
First, Practice Gratitude
Gratitude is a positive emotion or attitude in which a person acknowledges and appreciates the good things in their life. It involves recognizing and expressing thankfulness for the blessings, experiences, or acts of kindness received from others. Gratitude involves focusing on the positive aspects of life, rather than dwelling on negativity or what is lacking. Practicing gratitude has been linked to numerous physical, mental, and social benefits. Research suggests that regularly cultivating gratitude can improve overall well-being, reduce stress, enhance resilience, increase optimism, strengthen relationships, and promote better sleep. It can also contribute to a more positive outlook on life and a greater sense of happiness. Most importantly, feel grateful for the experiences that you get to share with the people around you. Feel gratitude for your circle of friends, and embrace the present moment.
Second, Spend More Time In Nature
Being in nature often involves physical activity, such as walking, hiking, or engaging in outdoor sports. Regular exercise has numerous health benefits, including improved cardiovascular fitness, increased muscle strength, better weight management, and reduced risk of chronic conditions like heart disease, obesity, and diabetes. Additionally, exposure to natural sunlight promotes the production of vitamin D in the body, which is essential for bone health and immune function.
Additionally, nature is beneficial for mental and emotional well-being. Nature has a calming and restorative effect on the mind and emotions. Research has shown that spending time in natural environments can reduce stress, anxiety, and depression. It helps to lower levels of cortisol, a stress hormone, and increases the release of endorphins, which are mood-enhancing chemicals in the brain. Being in nature can also improve cognitive function, attention span, and creativity.
Above all, use this season of celebration to encourage those around you to spend more time in the great outdoors. Perhaps, you schedule a camping trip with the ones that you love or simply take the opportunity to put away your phone, and bond with those you love at the beach. Embrace the elements of nature, be present, and honor time in nature with the ones that you love!
Third, Nourish Your Body With Healthy Fuel
Real foods, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats, are rich in essential nutrients like vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and dietary fiber. These nutrients are vital for supporting overall health, proper growth and development, and maintaining optimal bodily functions. A nutritious diet provides the energy and fuel needed for optimal physical and mental performance. Real foods, particularly complex carbohydrates like whole grains, provide sustained energy throughout the day, promoting better concentration, productivity, and overall well-being. Above all, emerging research suggests a link between diet and mental health. A balanced diet that includes real foods, particularly those rich in omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals, may help reduce the risk of mental health disorders like depression and anxiety, as well as improve overall cognitive function and mood stability.
During this season of celebration, opt for “nature candy” that comes from the earth. For example; choose fruits of processed sweets. Like; watermelon, berries, oranges, and grapefruit. Above all, choose to cook and nourish yourself with meals that fuel you and leave you feeling energized. Ask yourself, how does this meal make me feel after-the-fact? Am I energized or am I lethargic? Choose health, and encourage those around you to do the same.
