10 Healthy Tips in Summer

10 healthy tips in summer
1. Just say no. “Don’t feel bad saying ‘no’ now and then,”  a life coach and the author of Achieving the
2. Forage for finds. Lose yourself in a stroll around a flea market or neighborhood garage sale. The hunt for a one-of-a-kind treasure is a great way to snap out of your routine.
3. Listening musical. Can’t leave the house? Turn everyday chores into relaxing moments. Play classical music, or some other type of music that you find soothing, while you’re folding laundry or preparing dinner.  you’ll find yourself relaxing.
4. Join a “time off” team. Join forces with other busy parents and arrange playdates or sleepovers. Spend your night off unwinding with friends at a café or coffeehouse. “Just be sure to order decaf so you’re not counting sheep at midnight!” says Brogaard.
5. Clear your head. A half hour of meditation or yoga can clear your head and relieve stress, helping you feel more relaxed and calm. “These activities regulate the brain waves responsible for our conscious states,” says Brogaard, “and literally make the brain less busy.”
6. Bury yourself in a book. The quiet atmosphere at a library encourages relaxation, and the cool air can be a welcome relief when the temperature outside is climbing. Spend an hour flipping through your favorite magazines or looking for a fun summer read. “Just make sure you leave the kids at home so you can truly immerse yourself in the experience,” says Brogaard.
7.  Go green. Spending time outdoors resets your natural rhythm, says stress management expert Debbie Mandel, MA, the author of Addicted to Stress: A Woman's 7-Step Program to Reclaim Joy and Spontaneity in Life. Take a nature walk, eat lunch outside, or take a chore outside — such as balancing your checkbook out on the deck. “Any opportunity to get outside will help you feel like you’re part of the summer season,” says Mandel.
8. Talk to the animals. Sure, the zoo is a great place to take the kids. But feeding the ducks and watching elephants splash in their pool is a great way for grown-ups to unwind too. Playing with your pets at home is another fun way to enjoy some animal company.
9. Get schooled. Sign up for that ceramics or pastry class you’ve always wanted to take. Learning something new can fuel your creativity and give you a chance to make new friends with similar interests.
10.Stop by the silver screen. Spend a rainy or sticky summer day at the movies. “A comedy or romance is a great treat for busy, overscheduled parents,” says Mandel. “It’s good for your mental health to laugh and feel like you’re putting your interests first now and then.”
Balance Dream. It's important to free up time to take a walk, work a crossword puzzle, or watch your favorite TV show.
