Menopause is not only a transition that comes with frustrating side effects like insomnia or hot flashes. The changes your body experiences during menopause may also increase your risk for severe health problems that you’ll need to watch out for as you age. One of these health risks is heart disease.
Everyone wants healthier hair, skin and nails. Not only are these features key in beauty and appearance, but you simply feel better when your hair is silky smooth, your skin is hydrated and supple, and your nails are hard and smooth. Unfortunately, that means overcoming many environmental detractors. Hard water, poor air quality and lackluster diet are all contributors to poor hair, skin and nail health.
Once the dust has settled from the busy holiday season, we can enjoy a change of pace and unwind as we start a new year. This is a perfect time to offer ourselves some self-care to recover from short-days-doldrums, seasonal stresses, and harsh winter weather. Since these factors can wreak havoc on the condition of our skin and hair, it’s a good opportunity to pay those areas some attention!
Inflammation is at the root of many health problems—especially chronic ones that people live with on a daily basis. In fact, as many as 350 million people worldwide deal with chronic inflammation each year, alongside the conditions it causes. This includes everything from arthritis to acne, cardiovascular disease to inflammatory bowel syndrome—just to name a few of the most common. Simply put, inflammation is a scourge on the human body.
When you hit the gym or go for a run, do you push yourself to your maximum limits? In most cases, probably not. Moderate exercise usually focuses on pushing you a little for an extended period of time, and this certainly has its benefits. But if you’re looking for a way to ramp up your exercise routine, something like high-intensity interval training (HIIT) might be the right choice.
One of the most difficult things to do is find the time to take care of ourselves. There’s always another email to send, another chore to do or another event on the calendar. Unfortunately, staying busy and taking care of others can leave us feeling drained—physically, mentally and emotionally—and this can end up harming our overall health.
The changing of the calendar year is a landmark moment, and never more than this year. It’s the ultimate fresh start, like opening a crisp new notebook. We can’t look forward to 2021 without acknowledging that, during the COVID-19 pandemic, speculating on the coming year may still be a little daunting! However, spending time setting our New Year’s resolutions with intention can still be a powerful act of resistance and hope for the future.
It’s common for people’s routines to change during the winter months. The colder weather makes it harder to get outside, holidays disrupt your schedule and add stress, and the shorter days can put a damper on your mood. Together, these things have the potential to impact your overall health and wellness.
The holidays are nearly upon us! At the end of such a turbulent year, taking time to spend memorable moments with our family and friends is more important than ever. However, as critical as it is to share those special moments, the holiday season can also take its toll on your physical and emotional wellbeing.
