Feeling good about your body is the most
important factor behind feeling good about yourself. If you feel good about
your body, you will look good and also feel good about your mind. You will even
feel good about your personality. Assume you are dressed up for a party, and
looking yourself at the mirror you say – “not bad”. This means you look good
and you feel like praising yourself.
Feeling good about your body doesn’t
require you to be slim and thin. You need to be fit and healthy to feel good
about yourself. We all are beautiful within but we are often careless about our
body fitness – as a result, we become obese or overweight by following
unhealthy lifestyle and eating high calorie food.
Praise yourself
Praising yourself is most important to
boost your self-esteem. Always think positive, be positive about what you do,
and what you wear. Always get a positive body image. It will make you capable
to accept the changing lifestyles.
Exercise and fitness
Regular exercise keeps you fit, change your
appearance and let you feel good about your body. Exercise also reduces your
stress, promotes strength, balance, flexibility and general posture and a
general sense of well being. If you have scarcity of time, schedule your
fitness program beforehand and commit this with seriousness as you do your
business meeting.
Don’t stop eating
Food is a glorious and beautiful part of
our life and eating food is one of the wonderful activities. But don’t do
anything else while you are eating, since your foods deserve your full
attention. However, you should not overeat. It often happens that we overeat
while watching TV and eating. So stop watching TV at the time of eating.
However, you should follow a healthy and nutritious diet. Avoid junk foods.
Maintain right weight
It is unhealthy to be too thin or too fat.
It is also wrong if you are eating less food to become thin or eating more than
your body requirement. You should have a balanced diet - eat the amount of food
your body needs. You should keep a balance between the food you eat and the
calories you use. If you eat more calories than you use, you cannot maintain
your weight, and will soon become overweight. For example, you are eating more
but spending your time in watching TV, reading storybooks. Then there is a
chance of increasing weight. But if you spend your time in playing, skating or
if you go for a walk, you will use more calories and that will keep a balance
between what you eat and what you use – and you can maintain your body weight.
Friendship – good for your health
Friendship makes your whole life better, as
you get support and companionship from good friends. They just not make you
happy but also make your life beautiful and healthy. Researches have found that
friendship has importance like regular exercise. If you have good friends you
will experience less stress, will recover quickly from illness, and will even
live longer than people who don’t have good friends.
