Three critical elements of a healthy lifestyle are water, sleep and exercise. When we get tired of focusing on what we eat, lei’s try putting the emphasis on these three instead. We may just discover one makes a difference in our weight or hunger.
Drinking water is good for the body. It can suppress our appetite, help burn fat, stimulate metabolism, and even reduce stress by avoiding dehydration.
Sleep is critical to a healthy body. Sleep maintains a balance of hormones – even those that trigger cravings. Our bodies need a regular sleep pattern to stay healthy.
Exercise – oh, I had to bring that up! Yes, exercise is important to our bodies. Let’s try moving more each day. To reduce sitting is a great place to start. Walking around the house, cleaning, and performing daily tasks all help our bodies perform properly and that leads to good health.
“Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body.” (1 Corinthians 6:19-20 NIV).
