Feel like rubbish? Here are 5 simple things you can do to change that.
There's always that annoyingly healthy, glowing person at a party who says "I'm not drinking because my body is a temple." You laugh and roll your eyes, but really you're thinking: why are you like this. #letsbefrank, if you're not treating your body like a temple, how are you treating it? Like a tip? A halfway house? A bachelor pad? Are there half-eaten pizzas and a year's supply of 2-minute noodles lying around? Be honest, babe. If so, it's time for a spring clean.
1. You are what you eat
The more natural, nutritious things you consume, the better you will feel. Physically, you'll have more energy. Mentally, you'll be more alert. And you'll look good because you feel good. Keep these three things in your kitchen at all times: vegetables, avocado, water. No excuses.
2. Fresh air is everywhere
Yet most of us spend the majority of our time inside. Get outside, even just for a few minutes, and take a moment to breathe in and out. The power of fresh air on your brain, muscles, and skin is genuinely underrated.
3. Exercise is, well, exercise
You hate it or you love it, but everyone needs it. Those infamous endorphins make everyone feel better, and they only come from one thing. Go for a run, grab a skipping rope, or do a dance class with your favourite babe. You'll thank yourself for it later.
4. Look after your immune system
It's something you can't see, but you can feel. The more good things you're putting into it, the better you feel. Treating your body with love and respect all year round means that when winter flu hits, you're the babe bringing the soup, not eating it. Add these to your daily routine, especially in winter: vitamin C, echinacea.
5. Smile, please
The prettiest thing a babe can wear is a big smile. You often forget. Think of that feeling when you smile at a stranger and they smile back. Do that, more.
#letsbefrank, you're a queen not a rat. Don't act like the latter.
