7 things to send your health skyrocketing through the roof!!!

The good news is, each is easy to do and totally free!

#1 SET YOUR BODY CLOCK

With the precision of a Swiss clock, birds migrate, flowers open, and roosters crow. Animals, plants, and humans all respond to changes in darkness and light. These changes follow the approximate 24-hour cycle and have a profound effect on physical and mental health. This cycle is also known as the circadian rhythm.

Science recognizes that a “master clock” in the brain coordinates all the other body clocks so that they are in synch. Circadian rhythms influence hormone release, body temperature, sleep-wake cycles, and hundreds of other important bodily functions. Abnormal circadian rhythms have also been associated with diabetes, depression, obesity, bipolar disorder, seasonal affective disorder, etc.

To be clear, the rewards for doing this are rapid and real. Fortunately, resetting your inner clock is pretty easy to do. Within the first few minutes of waking simply exposing your eyes to as much natural sunlight as possible. When our eyes sense morning light, the body responds by being more awake and alert. For that reason, be sure not to obscure the morning sunlight with sunglasses. If you find yourself stuck indoors be sure to turn on lots of bright lights.
