“Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.” A simple quote, but it has such a profound impact. The truth is that someone could be the most beautiful person alive but won’t consider themselves that because they don’t see it. On the other hand, someone could be as unconventionally special, but consider themselves beautiful. That’s the truth – for most people, they are the beholder. So, here are some beauty and health tips that will make you feel beautiful from the inside.
1. Nutrition, Nutrition, Nutrition
Starving is not the solution for fast and easy weight loss. Neither is working out mindlessly. So, what is the solution?
Nutrition. When you provide your body with enough nutrition it feels beautiful. Your skin glows, your nails shine a little brighter, and you naturally lose weight. It’s simple – if you want to feel beautiful, make your body feel that way first. Take care of it, provide it adequate nutrition, hydrate often, connect with your inner self. Be there for your body because it’s the only one you’ve got.
2. Workout!
The workout glow is real folks. And, the best part? You can see it immediately after a workout. Imagine what working out five times a week for a few months will do. Now stop imaging, and get out there. We’ll repeat it. Working out is good for you. It releases pent-up energy, clears up your mind, and helps you lose weight. This makes it great for all aspects of nutrition and wellness – mental health, beauty, and health. Plus, you don’t even have to grudgingly force yourself to go to the gym. A workout can be anything – running up and down the stairs, going for a jog around the block, or even playing with your kids/pets for thirty minutes a day. Do whatever you like, but ensure that you do it every day. It will certainly pay off.
3. Dairy: To Do or Not To Do?
The consumption of dairy is something that nutrition and health experts are tied upon. Some believe that dairy has life-changing benefits while others believe that it does more harm than good. You don’t need to listen to either one. Instead, listen to yourself. Listen to your body. Do what makes your body feel good. At the end of the day, beauty and health are all linked to one thing – being in harmony with your body’s desires. So, don’t punish it by strictly following one “ideal way of life”. There’s no such thing. Instead, consume what makes you feel good. If you enjoy a cold glass of milk in the morning or a hot beverage at night, do that.
4. Reducing Gluten
While this is also a controversial topic, studies suggest that reducing gluten (if your body permits) can have an umpteen amount of benefits. So, understand your body and see whether this works for you. Also, remember that we said “reduce”, not “remove”. You do not have to give up on every single thing to gain beauty and health. Even if you do choose to give up on gluten, you have the choice to eat it every once in a while. If you love pizza, why would you want to permanently give up on it? Remember that weight loss is all about a permanent lifestyle change, and not a fast and easy weight loss trick that often does more harm than good.
5. Turmeric: An Evergreen Superfood
Turmeric is one of the most integral and important beauty and health tips. Used extensively in Asian countries, turmeric comes with several benefits. It is good for your skin, it is good for wounds and injuries, it is good for weight loss, and a whole lot of other things. Plus, it is extremely versatile. You can use it in a DIY face/body mask, you can mix it with milk and have it hot or cold. You can also add it to protein shakes. So, go ahead and experiment. Figure out what you like and what your body responds to, and make it an integral part of your lifestyle.
Bonus: Skip the Make-Up
Okay, this may not be the most celebrity-ish tip because let us be honest. They put on a ton of it every day. But, here’s the thing – that is a part of your job. However, it’s an entirely different thing when they’re home. Tons of celebrities speak highly of the benefits that ditching make-up for a bit can do. Instead, invest in your skin. Get products that will suit your skin and prove to be beneficial. Follow a skin-care routine that will benefit you in the long run. That is perhaps one of the most integral beauty and health tips. Because it isn’t just skin-deep.
