It's all about pink: October Awareness
We, the women are true survivors. Together, we can brave devastating disease like breast cancer. Being well-informed, being up-to-date and being watchful not only prevents disaster, but also can help restrict the extent of damage in our daily life --- be it breast cancer or just apparently usual stuff that we do every day. So, when we are all talking about things like breast cancer right now as October is the The National Breast Cancer Awareness Month (NBCAM)**; I thought why not talk about few simple things of a woman's daily life that can make a huge difference?
- 10 simple things that we, all women out there should pay attention to:
1. Healthy eating (and drinking):
I know it is tough (tell me about it, lol!), but there are plenty of scientific evidence out there that clearly shows that eating at least 3-5 potions of fruits/vegetable a day keeps our body healthy, full of necessary antioxidant/vitamins/minerals and other nutrients that are soooo vital for the well-being of our skin, hair and energy level. So ladies, select a number of fruit/vegetable items (say 15 of them) that you can see yourself consuming (I say that as I know some of you out there may simply HATE the idea of eating certain vegetable/fruits! For example, I hate broccoli --- I know, I know, I am so bad). Then make a rotating routine of which fruits or vegetable you are going to eat in next 10 days. If you stick to 3 a day, that means you can go 10 days without eating the same stuff again! Try it!


2. Healthy sleeping:

3. Dream it, Believe it, Work it: Impossible is Nothing
Our modern life is about problem solving, making choices in every walk of daily life and striving to be successful in different ways. Be it making a great apple pie for a bunch of guests who we don't want to disappoint or making sure we get the grade in school that is so important for our near future career choices. Tension, frustration, anxiety is part and parcel of our everyday life. But, what makes it more painful is if we always think about the negative side of it and keep dwelling in a world of negativity ... it is infectious, too!
So, all of us, please be mindful that making every little thing "the end of the world" scenario does not help us. Sometimes, it is helpful to be nice to ourselves! We should give our best in whatever we want to do but we never keep thinking about the outcome, we have right in our doing and honest efforts, but the result is not necessarily a guarantee! So enjoy whatever you do and do it whole heatedly --- be it preparing for exam, trying out a new complex recipe or writing up something for your blog! Leave the rest upto time. While nothing is impossible (or, in other words, impossible is nothing!), the undue expectations should not spoil our positive attitude. Whatever happens in anybody's life, happens for a good reason; it may not be apparent or even comprehensible but if we follow up with time, most of the time we will realize that it is true.
4. Exercise:
Free hand, aerobics, instrumental or yoga --- whatever our style is, we must do some exercise daily. While our usual day activity might seem like a lot of exertion and work out, there is not alternative to a routine of appropriate amount of physical exercise daily --- even if for few minutes. There are plenty of information out there on websites, Youtube videos etc. The common mistake some of us (including me!) may make is trying to do some exercise that might not suit our body structure, physical abilities or simply our daily requirements. So find a good exercise program, preferably find a mentor or instructor to guide you to start with and start! Be it for shedding some extra calories, keeping physical fitness or just simply feeling fit --- excising regularly has no second option. As individual goal and requirements can be very different, no one shoe fits all, so we should design our own schedule by means of available information on the web/other resources.
5. Reading a book:

6. Computer and IT health:
Smartphones, tablets, laptops, desktops are all part of our body now-a-days to connect to facebook, twitter, blog, email, youtube and internet in general which is part of our abstract existence on this planet. Many may argue that "life was better when apple and blackberry meant two fruits only", I beg to differ. While it is true that technology brings power to us and without the sense of responsibility, it can be destructive; we should not blame the advance technologies for our uncontrolled behavior. Maintaining a strict routine of maximum time on internet, in front of TV or on phone (except for calls related to work, unless can be helped!) per day should be adhered to. If we go reckless, we may hurt ourselves in many different ways. Too much time in front of desktop computer screen can damage our facial skin quality because of the bright light and heat from it. Try taking time facing away for couple of minutes in every 20-30 minutes, cold water rinse of the face and using a computer screen guard may all help. Mind our back, too. Computer users are the commonest people complaining of chronic low back pain. Remember to keep a straight spine and good posture while using computers. Excessive use of cell phones of a certain type gave birth to the term "blackberry thumb", do I need to explain further? The heat generated from laptops and tablet can affect our reproductive health, so keep these away from our "lap".
7. Microwave use:

8. Wearing protective gears:

9. Healthy skin care
10. Removal of make up:

I know! I know! I have written a lot this time!!!
All the best.

Great post. You look beautiful.
ReplyDeleteDrink so many water, pfff that's difficult for me. I thought 2 liters would be enough. Microwave i uses it everyday, but since a while i think 2 times a month. It's better for your food.
Have a nice day!

Thank you Jennifer for your comment! I know that's too much... Experts used to say it's enough if we drink 2 liters; however, I was going through few scientific articles recently and saw they are now talking about at least 2.5 to 3 liters of water each day.
