Wanting to look your best isn’t vain. Our bodies are the vessels that we navigate life in, and it’s totally cool to want them to look and perform well – after all, you’d want the same for your car, wouldn’t you? However, making sure you look your best in the most natural ways possible will help you to feel even better. Below, we’ll talk about 6 super natural ways you can look your best. Take a look!
- Eat Lots Of Nourishing Foods And Focus On Micronutrients
We are literally made out of the things we eat, as our bodies regenerate so much. You should be eating plenty of plants and fruits and getting in lots of micronutrients. The following are just a few great foods that you can include in your diet to look amazing:
- Blueberries
- Pomegranates
- Acai berries
- Goji berries
- Spinach
- Raspberries
- Nuts
- Seeds
- Purple grapes
2. Stay Hydrated Daily
Staying hydrated is another important element of looking your best naturally. Water is so important. Carry a big bottle with you and remember to drink from it regularly – don’t wait until you’re thirsty. It’s a good idea if you buy your own filter, as some bottled water is similar to tap. You’ll know your water is perfectly clean, as well as save plastic if you filter it yourself.
3. Get Into A Healthy Sleeping Pattern
Sleep is also an essential element of looking and feeling great. Everybody needs different amounts of sleep, depending on their activities levels, age, and other factors. Pay attention to how you feel in the mornings to gauge whether you need more sleep. 8 hours a night is a good amount to aim for, but don’t forget – it should also be quality sleep. Make sure your room is perfectly dark and that nothing is disrupting your sleep.
4. Be Mindful Of What You Eat/Drink
We already talked about eating foods rich in micronutrients, but there are a few things you can eat and drink that will potentially damage your teeth. Drinking too much coffee and tea, for example, can stain your teeth. Make sure you keep up your DFY Dental appointments so you can make sure you’re not doing anything to damage your teeth in the long run.
5. Use Natural Products
Start paying more attention to the ingredients in the products you use. Natural cleaning products are a good idea, as when you use these products you inhale them and they can even get in through your skin. Natural skincare products are a must, too. Try to select products that contain natural ingredients rather than chemicals.
6. Find Ways To Relieve Your StressStress is something everybody deals with from time to time, but you should make sure you have a few ways of relieving it. Going on long walks can help, and even just breathing deeply can make a huge difference. Most people take short, shallow breaths, and this signals to the body that we are stressed. People do this even when not in a stressful situation, so the body is in a permanent state of stress! Remind yourself to take deeper breaths so you can relax.
