Try not to overdress which can cause increased sweating. Moisture contributes to heat loss. Remove layers as your body heats up, or start out your workout a little bit chilly. Your body will heat up as you get going.
Don’t wear cotton next to the skin. Cotton captures moisture and as you sweat, it traps moisture next to your body. Your body loses heat four times faster when exposed to water at lower temperatures. Get workout clothes made of wicking fabrics designed to move moisture away from the body.
Small people have a large surface area-to-body mass ratio, which means they have a greater percentage of body in contact with the environment, which means a higher risk for hypothermia. If you’re small, layer up when you’re outside exercising!
The best way to de-stress and re-focus is to get outside and get some fresh air. Even if it’s chilly outside, a little light exercise will keep you warm for a 15 minute break. Another good way to de-stress is getting regular neuromuscular massages.
Studies have found that when we’re overloaded with information or thoughts our brains and bodies need a break. Regular deep breathing can help. Taking a walk or doing some yoga can help quiet the mind as well. Especially before bedtime, relaxing and letting your mind drift is better for sleep than ruminating over what has gone on during the day, or what will take place tomorrow.
Studies suggest that blueberries which have a wealth of anthocyanins, a powerful antioxidant that gives blueberries their color, enhance neuron-to-neuron connections in the brain which delays memory loss.
Play scrabble or do a crossword puzzle will not only build your word skills but will also protect you against memory loss.
So start eating like an Italian! Fish, fresh vegetables, a little meat and wine are not only delicious, but drizzle a little olive oil over the food and you may be saving your brain.
You’ll be at your sharpest after a full night’s sleep. For most adults, that means 6 hours or more. If you’ve got a big event coming up or something important at work, schedule a neuromuscular massage the day before. A good massage leads to good sleep.
