5 No-Brainer Health Tips that can Change your Life

5 No-Brainer Health Tips that can Change your Life

Yes, I am THAT confident! If you actually do these five things every single day, you will truly notice a difference.

 And there’s really no excuse not to… They only take a few minutes a day. Two of them are completely free, and two are pennies a day. And the most expensive will cost you one dollar a day.

So let’s get started:

Planks

Even if you have no time for any other exercise, hold a plank every morning for as long as you can. Use the stopwatch function on your phone to time it, and challenge yourself to hold it a little longer every day. 

Planks work your entire body and are especially effective on your core. Seeing yourself growing stronger every day is a great confidence boost.

Lemon water

Starting your day with lemon water has so many benefits. The vitamin C in the lemon juice is great for your immune system and helps to brighten the skin. It also supports the production of new collagen.

There’s something about the fresh taste and scent that is really uplifting. Take your lemon out of the fridge the night before and it will be easier to squeeze. (Also you won’t forget!)

Collagen peptides

This magical powder is life-changing for your nails, skin, and hair. Just stir a scoop or two a day into your morning coffee, tea, or smoothie. I noticed a difference in the firmness of my skin after using it for a month. I’m 54 and my skin is better than it was in my late 30s.

I love the Vanilla Collagen Peptides from Further Food. They are lightly sweetened with monk fruit so totally free of carbs and they also contain Tremella mushroom for additional skin benefits.

Daily raw carrot

Eat a raw organic carrot with the skin every day for better skin and balanced hormones. Sounds too good to be true, but so easy it is worth a try. Don’t get the baby carrots, they are peeled. 

There is something about this that helps to balance hormones in both men and women. I can tell you it has worked very well for me. In addition, the naturally occurring carotenes are beneficial for your skin.

Positive affirmations

I used to do all the things…eat right and workout. I looked great. But it wasn’t until I started changing my mindset that life really started to feel amazing. Positive affirmations were a big part of that. 

Positive affirmations are statements that challenge negative thoughts. To be effective they need to be in the present tense.

For example, I am open and ready to receive all the good and abundance in the universe.

Good things are always happening to me.

These are very general. You can create your own that are more specific. I post a lot of fun ones on my Instagram account @happyhealthyandhot_elizabeth

You can say them out loud, write them in a journal, or recite them in your head. I like to program them into my phone as an alarm. There are also some amazing videos on YouTube where positive affirmations are repeated.
