*drink shit loads of water*
you may have to pee every five minutes but you'll notice your skin will start to clear up, you'll feel more energized and awake and just have an overall refreshed feeling. it's all worth having to pee a lot, right? right.
*use a natural deodorant or none at all*
i've tried going deodorant less most days and its usually ok because i shower daily anyway so i don't create that much "stink" during the day. however, sometimes my job can be a little bit strenuous and i do break a sweat. so on those days it's kind of bad news bears but i'm not overly self conscious about it so it's all good. not using deodorant actually relieves you body of some extra somewhat unneeded chemicals it's exposed to on a daily basis. it gives it a break from these toxins. i haven't tried any natural deodorants like baking soda or lemon juice but i think i will, so i'll report back!
*don't shave*
this one kind of makes me laugh because this doesn't really make you healthy in any way but it's sort of liberating. highly recommend trying. ALTHOUGH i've noticed that when i take long breaks (and i mean long...like 4 months or more) without shaving, when i finally do shave them, they are smoother than i have ever felt them, the pores on my legs are hardly noticeable, and i never get any rash or razor burn which is something i constantly got even if i used a good razor and shaving cream. i've got super sensitive skin what can i say. anyways try it it's fun.
*eat vegan or vegetarian*
now i'm not recommending you jump right into becoming a vegan because let me tell you, it's extremely difficult, especially if you're a picky eater. being vegetarian is much easier. you don't have do it forever but even trying to be vegetarian or vegan for a couple of months will do your body so much good and in turn make you feel great.
*meditate*
you've got to have a healthy mind to go with that healthy bod! mediating and quieting your mind for a little bit every day is excellent for the brain. it will allow you to think more clearly and efficiently!
*no nail polish*
too many chemicals seeping into your body. yes, you can absorb things through your nails. let them breathe!
*no makeup*
no makeup makes for healthier, clearer skin. you're beautiful no matter what, don't listen to people who have nothing nice to say, they're sad, sad people. feel bad for them and feel happy for yourself!
*walk*
get some fresh air in those lungs, INHALE then EXAHLE. feels good.
*take a break from technology*
as i'm writing a blog post on my computer................i think our minds function better being in the real world, experiencing things first hand and communicating face to face. that's how we are programmed. we get so mesmerized by our technology that we forget to live. you can't bake a cake on the computer. if you are using technology, do it to call a friend or chill to some music, things that are good for you.
*be kind*
be kind to others, and be kind to yourself. only good comes from good. you are all loved, important, cherished and here for a reason, don't ever forget that.
