GWD 7 STEP MANIFESTO

In order to make Wellness a lifestyle, Global Wellness Day aims to adopt the following seven simple steps.

What is important is not to implement all of the steps all at once, but to incorporate at least just a few of them into your daily life on a regular basis.

WALK FOR AN HOUR

You feel happier as you walk because the brain secretes endorphin while you are walking. Your muscles get stronger, you lose belly fat, the level of cholesterol reduces and it helps you overcome your weight problems.

DRINK MORE WATER

People who drink less water might suffer exhaustion, attention deficiency and memory problems. The more water you drink the less carbonated drink you consume

DON'T USE PLASTIC BOTTLES

The plastic bottles made of petroleum waste cause innumerable damage to our health and the environment.

EAT HEALTHY FOOD

Try to consume foods which are produced through natural methods by using appropriate fertilization and weed control techniques without using pesticides and certain chemicals.

DO A GOOD DEED

Do a good deed to break your prejudices, to make the world a better place to live. See how you will change your life by changing someone else’s.

HAVE A FAMILY DINNER WITH YOUR LOVED ONES

Eat a family dinner with your loved ones in a room where, if possible, there are no smart phones and TV. Talk about your day. Research shows that the family dinners with the loved ones have a psychologically positive effect on the children who suffer obesity.

SLEEP AT 10:00 PM

Sleep is a critical process during which our body regulates everything and repairs and heals itself. It slows down ageing and protects us from diseases. HGH (Human Growth Hormone) is released by the brain into the bloodstream during sleep and it’s release is part of the repair and restoration function of sleep. The major period of HRH release is in the first period of stage 3 sleep during the night.

Take care of your body. It’s the only place you have to live.
