1. Improve Your Posture

Always keep good body posture. Keep your spine as straight as possible.  It will help your muscles to avoid straining and contracting unnecessarily. Also, energy circulates freely throughout your body, only when the spine is straight and nerves unhindered.

 

2. Breathe Mindfully

Mindful breathing is a great way to get more oxygen into your blood and tissues. If you pay attention to your breathing, you will notice that your breathing pattern is quite shallow. Shallow breathing is not a healthy breathing pattern. You can start out by just inhaling completely and then slowly exhaling completely. If you do this focused breathing for even few minutes, you can immediately notice the better feeling and refreshment it gives. If you are stressed or tired, take a minute out of your day to breathe mindfully.

 

3. Get Better Sleep

In the morning, if you wake up not refreshed and feeling sleepy or foggy during the day, it is a sign that your body is not getting the right amount of sleep it needs. If so do your best to correct your body’s wrongly conditioned sleeping pattern. Avoid being stressed or exerted within an hour of your bed time and ensure that you get seven to eight hours of uninterrupted sleep.

4. Maintain Healthy Sleeping Habits

Good sleeping habits are something you have to learn and implement on a daily basis. Poor sleep can be the outcome of bad habits learned by nearly everyone during the teenage years.

Use your bedroom solely for sleep and rest. In today’s busy world, there is a tendency to turn the bedroom into a home office and multipurpose room. Keep your bedroom as a place solely for the purpose of relaxation and restfulness.

Try setting aside eight hours for sleep each night, getting into bed no less than half an hour prior to the time that you want to be asleep. If you do this for a few weeks, you will find positive improvements in your sleep patterns, overall health and productivity.
