In as much as we need to get our hands on deck, it is expedient we stop a while to run a personal going-over on our health, safety and environment (HSE). It is spread across the above three; each of them can have a direct or indirect impact on us, thereby retarding our pace to fulfillment. just as the saying; Health is Wealth.

It promises to be invigorating, enriching and of course practicable. You are welcome to make your inputs as comments in this regard for others to learn the importance of having a healthy lifestyle.

I urge that we avail ourselves for projects and visions like the #BecomingAWoman ideology… we are pacing tenaciously and gracefully. 

We are surely progressing to the focus of our discussion. Please, redirect your attention to your priority which is being here at this moment. Bravo! You just did! that is why you obviously noticed a break after the word ‘moment’. Permit me to crave your indulgence; in addition, my page is aimed at encouraging and inspiring as much women that are ready to key in passionately to the vision of my 3D’s. #BecomingAWoman is packaged for women but equally welcomes men who understand that when a woman is developed both in health and in wealth, she becomes a better helpmeet to the man and to the society at large. We welcome not just men but their reasonable inputs as well. On that note, I do refer to women as “we”. Thank you! I thought this paragraph was necessary.

Every woman of varying status often struggles with mix emotions on how to start up her day, with astonishing anticipations or magical enthusiasm depending on her mood. Time and again, when we ponder over moments between getting on deluged duties of the day and probably heading out of the door, we get either perplexed or hopeful; depending again on our Perception.

So I tell you now to tell another woman to tell another woman and together we may just tell the globe of women how essential it is for “the woman” to live healthy.

In our ideology, we strongly believe there won’t be a motivation to discover, develop and deploy our capabilities if our health is not in proper check. Guess we do have a better outlook on what we should expect. Didn’t know I have been talking and haven’t yet hit the nail on the head. I finally introduce to you 5 simple, healthy and most effective ways to start up the days of this month. You sure will enjoy the process all the way. Please endeavor to comment, as you know is very important for others to draw motivation, and do express your sincere appreciation by liking and sharing on any of the social platforms. Thank you!

1. Activate your senses and visualize your goals…

To achieve this, you could draw some inspiration from your space (thoughts, bedroom, home etc.), by filling it with soothing illuminations, most auspicious breath, colours with radiance, admirable decorations with a well conducive atmosphere, where your senses are awakened for the day. As much as I know finding your muse varies with women and could be worrisome. For me, I always get motivation from the quintessential Bible character and person of Queen Esther, studying her life is a reminder to emulate her unparalleled courage and chutzpa. For another, it could just be gazing at the ceiling or recounting some hilarious moments. All these and more are what we engage in to garner momentum to pull through a successful day. Activating your senses goes a long way to keep you expectant.

Try to have a written or imaginative plan; visualize and try to get it replicated in reality by implementing as stated, or at least attempting what you have in the plan. If that is done successfully then, other tips would only keep the fun going.

This cannot be overemphasized as it is duly needed to mark promising days in this month. Having done the mental exercise try to do this physical exercise as you read... Stretch your body slowly; this loosens up your joints and surges flexibility. This is exciting as you are thinking right now. This is practicable.

Next you mimic the way a cat wakes up by extending your spine and stretching out your arms and legs, one at a time. Slowly stand up, inhale as you stretch, and exhale as you contract. Interestingly, you didn’t see that coming but I want to believe you enjoyed the experience.

2. Focus a minute on your dreams and goals while you indulge in a water massage since it’s been a mix of mental and physical exercise. Remember they are feasible else I won’t recommend you try them for the rest of the days of this month. Here you make a promise to yourself to achieve something substantial for yourself. It could be having to gaze at that project you had abandoned, finishing chores you had suspended, or preparing your favourite delicacy. Something of grave concern to you. 

There we go again, while pondering on this. Try to use your bath gel to cleanse your body and your mind with a warm water. Use the pressure of the warm water to stimulate your muscles, carefully massaging your skin. This can be done shower time. Most people get directions for the day during their shower time, where they pay wrap attention to their minds. 

3. Try to make it come alive.

This simply implies exercising your entire body, from the upper limb to the lower limb. It is not right to just wake your senses and not energize your body. Doing this as often as you can, demonstrates how importantly you prioritize your health, understanding that it helps you feel light and good about yourself. Choose your exercise wisely and stick to the practice. It could be doing some armature stretches or dancing to a boogie tune. Just try to give the body some current. Let us be readers and doers as well. We are almost there.

4. Derive pleasure in skimming through a book(recipe, motivational, devotional, entertainment, etc.) while you break your fast ; Allow your mind after refreshing it during bath to wander to an entertaining memory. You could envisage such memory by drafting thoughts and feelings about that memory. You could travel a while to the world of fantasy just in a bid to get your spark for the day, which could boost your morning wishes. Now the physical exercise, while you wander through fantastic memory lane, fuel yourself with a high-fibre breakfast, healthy lunch and dinner that would complement your exercises for this period. It should include whole grains, fruit and low-fat protein. 

Adding fruit to your daily diet is very essential as you already know. I encourage you to make a culture the inclusion of any fruit, particularly cucumber or better a whole fruit salad to your menu. All tips here are tested and recommended for best and profiting practice.

5 Fight that fuzzy feeling while you stride confidently to start the day.

Having said all that, it’s quite simple and again feasible to achieve and consistently follow these tips daily. We are able to build up courage and momentum in the previous steps, now it’s more like nothing can stop us from getting healthily fulfilled for the days of this month. Now we are ready to stride courageously this month and beyond. Be consistent, be innovative in your practice and please share your experience here.
