If you are still unfit and upset about it, stop complaining and do something about it. For those of you who have successfully carried excess weight woes into 2018, it is time to get rid of both for good. Start today by setting goals to accomplish them. As far as planning out the whole course goes, we’ve got you covered. This week we spoke to Sreela Nair, wellness coach at Retreat Palm Dubai MGallery. She guides us through the ten steps to fitness, reveals how you can lose weight in winter and explains how mental and physical activity can create positivity and change.

10 Steps To Fitness

SET GOALS: Gives yourself some direction and build on your purpose.

BACK TO THE BASICS: Move your body every day and eat whole foods by filling up on veggies, fruits, healthy fats, and lean proteins.

STOP DEPRIVING YOURSELF: Focus on putting good fuel into your body by adding what you need and it will eventually push out what you don’t need.

STOP TRYING: Trying means you’re not committed. Commit to become fit. You either wake up to work out or not!

CONSISTENCY IS KEY: Be consistent with your diet and exercise routine. Every action either takes you closer to or further away from your goal

DUMP THE JUNK: If it is in your house it will eventually be eaten. Get rid of the all junk food!

ACCOUNTABILITY & SUPPORT: Share your goals and plan with people in your life.

PLAN: Failing to plan, is planning to fail. Plan and prepare your meals and workouts for the week.

Don’t wait until Monday or next month to begin. Start now, in whatever way you can. That might mean signing up at the gym after work today or attempting your first mediation tonight before bed.

Be The Example: Be what you want to see in the world. If it’s a healthier one.

Three Best Ways

To Lose Weight This Winter

Drink Plenty of Water-. One of the best, yet healthiest things can do to lose weight is by drinking more water. But the problem is that many people tend to drink less in cold weather, although drinking water, especially in winter, does your body good in a number of ways, including weight.

Outdoor exercises

The invigorating cold air can clear your mind and reduce stress, which can be helpful for weight loss. Stress can increase levels of cortisol, a hormone that may increase appetite and promote fat storage. Running is generally considered to be one of the best outdoor exercises.

Sample Detox Diet Plan. Detox drinks can boost your metabolism and energy levels, leaving you feeling fresh and light throughout the day. Detox diet are utilized mainly due to their claims to eliminate toxins, cleanse the body, and boost energy levels. However, their recent surge in popularity may also be attributed to claims of rapid weight loss in certain individuals.

Health Regimes You Must Follow

Totally avoid junk food- Junk foods tend to be very highly processed and are often made with refined grains and sugar. Junk food is high in fat or sugar. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, cooking meals at home, and reducing your intake of sugar and refined carbohydrates, on the other hand, may help to improve mood and lower your risk for mental health issues. Drink more water amount of water you consume everyday plays an important role in maintaining a healthy body. Recommend drinking eight to 10 glasses of water each day to maintain good health. Sleep well Physical Health Sleep plays an important role in your physical health. For example, sleep is involved in healing and repair of your heart and blood vessels. Most healthy adults need between 7 to 9 hours of sleep per night to function at their best. Children and teens need even more. Regular exercise helps prevent or manage a wide range of health problems and concerns. Make exercise a part of daily routine as much as possible

Relaxation

In fact, relaxation might be one of the most essential factors in maintaining a healthy body and mind. Relaxation is so important. Relaxation techniques help manage everyday stress but also the type caused by health conditions. Relaxation techniques can benefit both psychological and physical health. Yoga’s incorporation of meditation and breathing can help improve a person’s mental wellbeing. Regular yoga practice creates mental clarity and calmness; increases body awareness; relieves chronic stress patterns; relaxes the mind; centres attention; and sharpens concentration.

Positive thinking is very beneficial for our mental health primarily because it eliminates any form of paranoia and negative thoughts that can cause depression and stress. The process is actually a domino effect in terms of our overall health. Those who think positively feel happier and more contented with their lives.

Health Hazards to avoid in 2018

Avoid-Plastic

There is no denying that inexpensive In addition to creating safety problems during production, many chemical additives that give plastic products desirable performance properties also have negative environmental and human health effects. These effects include. Direct toxicity plastics have made many aspects of food and water distribution much easier (though I would argue that this is problematic as well), but emerging research and data from decades of increasing use of plastics suggest that we need to seriously revaluate our plastic usage.

Avoid-Long-term stress

Health problems can occur if the stress response goes on for too long or becomes chronic, such as when the source of stress is constant, or if the response continues after the danger has subsided. With chronic stress, those same life-saving responses in your body can suppress immune, digestive, sleep, and reproductive systems, which may cause them to stop working normally.
