Sustainable Health Routine for a Better Future

Greetings, fellow readers and activists! Today I want to briefly discuss the benefits of adopting a sustainable strategy for maintaining our health. This is beneficial for the environment as well as for our personal health. I have personal experience of how adopting sustainable practices and healthy habits will enhance our physical and mental well-being while also lowering our carbon impact. We have a chance to create real change by eating a plant-based diet, choosing mindful habits, incorporating eco-practices like bicycling instead of driving and using reusable products. Join on this journey as we explore how sustainability and wellness go hand in hand to create an Earth and improve our quality of life.

We have the power to make a difference in both our own health and the environment by supporting the consumption of plant-based meals and promoting sustainable lifestyle practices. So many studies have demonstrated that a poor diet can significantly increase the risk of developing respiratory illnesses, cardiac issues and also cancer when combined with environmental issues like air pollution and water contamination. As a result it is crucial to have access to clean water, sufficient sanitation accessbility and healthcare services in order to keep our overall health good. Furthermore, by including sustainable practices into our exercise routines like choosing environmentally friendly workout attire or considering alternatives to driving which can be walking or bicycling, we not only encourage physical fitness but also actively minimise harmful gases released into the environment. My own personal experience has shown significant changes when using mindfulness methods like meditation to reduce stress levels and establishing sustainable practices in everyday life choices. Feeling less fatigue and improved overall mental and physical health were the results of higher energy levels gained by switching to plant-based eating habits combined with sustainable decisions. By putting a healthy lifestyle first, we can achieve happiness, productivity and also contribute to a healthier planet.

This is the real fantastic news. We can reduce these worries while also enhancing our general wellbeing by following a clear health routine. By choosing to walk or bike instead of use a car, we are reducing the harmful emissions that contribute to air pollution which is a significant cause of the wide range of health problems listed earlier. Air pollution, water contamination and other environmental issues are very closely linked to respiratory illnesses, heart illnesses and also cancer. Global health is significantly impacted by the effects of climate change, which increases disease transmission, air pollution and make it more difficult to get clean water. To reduce pollution we must be aware of the importance of what we do to the environment. By addressing concerns such as climate change and its effects on disease transmission, air pollution and accessibility to clean water, sustainability practices play a crucial role here by enhancing global health. Choosing sustainable practices like cutting back on meat consumption and choosing eco-friendly forms of transportation like cycling can help sustain a clean environment that protects public health. It is high time for us to prioritise sustainable living by putting in action initiatives that promote a healthier world.

Making positive changes involves switching to environmentally friendly exercise equipment and sustainable gym practices. This not only reduces carbon footprints but also reduces resource usage and promotes healthier environments. Following sustainable practises goes beyond maintaining a person's physical health. It has the capacity to enhance our mental wellness as well. Our general state of mind can be greatly improved by engaging with nature, practising mindfulness, and implementing eco-friendly habits. By creating a closer connection with not just ourselves but with others and the world around us, religion and spirituality plays a vital role in helping us to move towards sustainability. True wellness comes from choosing a holistic approach that values both individual well-being and the sustainability of the planet we live in. We can successfully lower stress levels while also encouraging better mental well-being through mindful activities like meditation and choosing sustainable lifestyle choices, all while coexisting peacefully with our surroundings.

Through my personal journey, I have personally been a witness to the incredible advantages of maintaining a sustainable approach to overall well-being. By sticking to a balanced nutritional plan, choosing environmentally-friendly practices and nurturing my spirituality, I have not only achieved personal success and sustained a healthy weight but also made significant contributions towards promoting a sustainable future. As someone who has wholeheartedly enjoyed this transformative voyage by diligently attending the gym regularly over the course of the past year while adopting mindful eating patterns, I am absolutely thrilled for the remarkable transformations! Apart from achieving goals such as shedding kilos and enhancing physical appearance (cue heightened confidence), my commitment has played an crucial role in encouraging advancements pertaining to sustainable progress. It is important to acknowledge that little steps and gradual endeavors hold immeasurable importance when they are all diligently together! Since starting my gym routine approximately one year ago coupled with sticking to a nourishing diet rich in protein alongside cultivation of mindfulness and spiritual practices, I have experienced tremendous accomplishment with respect to weight loss maintenance, overall fitness maintenance whilst concurrently contributing positively towards endorsing sustainability on both local and global scales.

In conclusion, it is critical that we take advantage of this opportunity as a whole and make important decisions that will improve both our physical health and the health of our world as a whole. Multiple studies offer solid evidence demonstrating the connection between sustainable practices and better health outcomes, including decreased disease risks and longer lifespans. We shouldn't be intimidated by making sustainable changes in our daily lives because by implementing small changes like having a plant-based diet, walking or biking instead of driving, eco-friendly and sustainable workout clothes and gear, sustainable gym practices, meditation and religion, we can actually have a big influence. Let's promote eco-friendly practices and raise awareness in our communities as a team to nurture the earth and ourselves. Remember, every small step counts. Stay inspired, stay healthy, and stay sustainable as we embark on this transformative journey together!

You know what feels great? The first long shower after being sick. And the first good dental brush clean after being sick. Cuz when I'm sick, I can barely coordinate a toothbrush let alone brush well. I think I dropped my toothbrush like 4 times the day after I slept for the whole day and I just gave up and rinsed with salt water and went back to bed.

World Osteoporosis Day: Recognizing Conditions That Increase Osteoporosis Risk

World Osteoporosis Day is a crucial annual event that sheds light on the silent but debilitating bone condition known as osteoporosis. This condition weakens bones, making them fragile and prone to fractures. While osteoporosis can affect anyone, there are certain conditions that significantly increase the risk. 

Now we’ll explore these risk factors and their impact on bone health. Understanding these conditions is the first step in prevention and early detection, which are key to reducing the burden of osteoporosis.

1. Age:

Advancing age is one of the primary risk factors for osteoporosis. As we get older, bone density naturally decreases, which can lead to weakened bones. Postmenopausal women are particularly susceptible to osteoporosis due to hormonal changes that affect bone health.

I love having nieces and nephews under the age of four. Family dinner used to start at 6 p.m., and I'd be there until 9 or 10 p.m.

Now dinner is at 4 p.m. sharp, and everyone has to leave by 7 p.m. MAX to avoid disrupting bedtime, and my chronically ill, fatigued ass is like, say no more. I'm gone. I'm back in my bed by 8 with my dog and my safe foods and something quiet on the tv so I can recover.

Amazing. Incredible. No notes. Pass the potato chips and electrolytes.

anyone else have multiple traumatic memories associated specifically with holidays/family vacations? because that is a topic I never see discussed in all the So You Had A Shitty Childhood, Now What? self-help books i've been reading. but for me, it was a significant thing. and the more i think about it the more it seems like this would be an (unfortunately) common experience. would be grateful to hear if this matches other peoples' experiences...

🎀 The It Girl Lifestyle Guide 🎀

hi girlies! this guide is a part of the big series: The Ultimate It-Girlism Guide. in this mini guide i'll be including all things health, morning/nighttime routines, and more!

How to create your ideal morning / night / any other routine:

Here’s a mini step by step guide to curating a routine that works specifically for YOU, tailored to your own needs and wants. This can be for any routine u wanna create: morning, night, after school, after work, before school/ work, etc etc.

Apps / things needed:

ChatGPT (or an AI like that- it’s not completely necessary but it’s useful)

Notes app / docs app. (Or a pen and paper- this will be to write down the routine!)

Calendar app (optional tbh)

Ok so first off: decide what you want in your routine. Make a list in no particular order of what you need/ want in the routine.

Some examples:

Once you’ve created this list, you’re pretty much half way done. In this next part you can use chat GPT to make it easier, or use your own mind.

The next thing to do is: ask chatGPT to make a routine with the steps u wanted.

Make sure to mention what time your routine starts and ends. And if there’s anything you want to change, you can just ask the AI or make those changes yourself!

The last step is to write it down!

You can either write it down on the notes app, docs, on a journal/ piece of paper, anything that’s easily accessible to you. I heavily recommend writing it down somewhere, but if you dont want to you can…

Put it into your calander. This can help you be a bit more organised, but it’s not completely needed. As long as it’s written down somewhere- so you dont need to always remember it- you’re good.

Health and wellness

In this section, i will be talking about fitness, mental health and physical health. I will mention some useful tips to finally start, how to overcome procrastination, and how to take care of that area of your body.

1. FITNESS.

Numero uno: fitness! I’m not going to go yapping on about how fitness is so important- im assuming you all know that by now. But let me just remind you that staying fit is not only exercising or going to the gym everyday. It can be: running, going for a walk, playing a sport, yoga, pilates, dancing, cycling, and THE LIST GOES ON. DO anything that moves your body and gets you fit!

Here are some tips to help you get started:

Start small. Set small goals first. Set SMART goals

Choose the activities you enjoy. Like i mentioned earlier, there’s tons of ways to stay fit- cycling, running, swimming, yoga, dance, sports, etc. etc. (if you like, joining a class or working out with friends can help you stay motivated!)

Stay consistent. I know i know, this is said everywhere. But there is no progress without consistency. Even if you can’t do a whole workout one day, try and do 10 jumping jacks, or 5 pushups. Do whatever you can. Remember: 1% is better than 0.

Create a vision board. You can create one yourself, or find tons of them off Pinterest. Vision boards will make the process so much more fun and will certainly motivate you.

Set a reward system. Tell yourself: if you do this high intensity workout now, you can go to the spa later or watch tv.

Find a why. This goes for like everything tbh. If your why is big enough, you are capable of doing anything (even finding that lost book that you owe the library!) basically, are you doing this to get ripped? With tons of abs, or to get strong and impress people? Or are you doing this to boost your self esteem and improve your health?

2. FOOD & NUTRITION.

Balanced diet: eat the rainbow! Meaning- eat meals with a variety of different colours. Fruits, vegetables, proteins, carbohydrates, etc. it’s completely alright to eat a chocolate, but remember: EVERYTHING IN MODERATION.

Hydration: aim for at least 8 glasses of water a day. Trust me, drinking the magical potion that is water will help you SO much! It can help you clear your skin, have pink uncrusty lips, keep you fit and soooo much more.

Mindful eating: in the book IKIGAI it is said that you should only eat until you’re 80% full. Not 100%. Why? Because the time it takes for you to digest the food will have already made you extremely full. You may even have a stomachache. Studies also show that cutting back on calories can lead to better heart health, longevity, and weight loss.

Here are some tips to manage cravings:

Find healthier alternatives. If you are craving something sweet like chocolate, have something like a sweet fruit. If you crave something salty, try nuts. If you can’t think of any, search up some healthier alternatives to it!

Create more friction for junk, and less friction for healthy. This concept was said in the book Atomic Habits by James Clear. What does it mean? Make sure that it takes a lot of energy to get the unhealthy junk food. Maybe keep them high up in a cupboard so whenever you want it you have to go get a ladder, climb up, and then get it. And keep the healthy food in easy reach. Like some fruits open on a table, etc. (also remember to keep some actually yummy healthy food like Greek yogurt or protein bars.)

Distract yourself. Go do a workout or engage your mind in a hobby that you enjoy. Basically take your mind off food.

Yummy water. Make some lemonade for yourself. Or perhaps add slices of lemon, cucumber, mint or strawberries to it for some flavours. I’d do some research on this cus i know that some combos can rly help for things like clearing your skin, boosting energy, etc.

3. MENTAL HEALTH

Taking care of your mental health is just as important as taking care of your physical health. It affects how we think, feel and act and also determines how we handle stress, relate to others, relationships, etc.

Of course there will be ups and downs for our mental health. It’s not something that you can just fix once and it’ll be good forever. No, it’s a rollercoaster. But having a “good” mental health is really important for a successful lifestyle.

Here are some tips to help you improve your mental health:

Meditation / deep breathing. I can’t emphasise how important this is. Even 1-2 minutes a day is good. Start small. You dont even need to be sitting crossed legged for this. Whether you’re in class, on a vehicle or in a stressful situation; just breathe. Take a deep breath, and out. Do it right now.

Journalling. Write. It. Out. Writing your problems and worries out is SOO therapeutic, especially when you want to calm down. There are SO MANY benefits to journalling. But remember that once you’ve ranted on the paper, tear it, rip it, and watch it burn. (Don’t keep a journal for this unless you KNOW 150% that no ones ever gonna read it. Trust me, it’s terrifying knowing that someone’s read that.) other things you can do is create a gratitude journal, so whenever you’re feeling low you can just go to it or write in it.

Self careee!! Create time for self care in your week. Because if you do that, it’s gonna be that one thing which you’ll be looking forward to each week, which will make life SO much more fun and bearable. For me, my forms of self care are watching thewizardliz or tam Kaur, reading, watching a movie at night, etc.

POSITIVE. SELF. TALK. Need i say more? What you say to yourself, is what you believe. And what you believe reflects in your external life.

Sing your heart out to Olivia Rodrigo. I swear this is actually so calming and therapeutic. Basically: express your feelings. If you’re angry at someone, feeling grief or really hurt by someone, screaming to Olivia Rodrigo songs in my bedroom is my go-to (i just make sure not to do it when others can here hehe). You can punch your pillow, scream, cry, etc.

Remember honey: this too will pass. Repeat that over in your head. This will pass. This will pass. This will pass. I know you may be going through the toughest time ever, but this too will pass. Nothing is forever. You’ve gotten through so much worse. You’ve got this.

!! Girls, please remember that these are just some tips. I am NOT a professional. If you really feel horrible every single day, go to therapy or counselling. Also contact mental health hotlines or emergency numbers if needed.

Mkay thats it! I hope this was of some value to you, and stay tuned for the next guide in the it girl series!
