A Typical Day Of My Life
Hi folk,
Today, I am going to share with you a typical day of my routine and how I can stay fit and energetic to fully utilize my 10 hours daily. So please stay tuned with me because I am going to share how life can be so simple, yet healthy and enjoyable enough to make us happy and young ultimately.
In the morning, I will usually be up from bed by about 8.00 am and I will have one sachet of bifidobacteria, which is friendly bacteria that provide conductive intestinal environment with healthy microflora for our optimum immune function. I regard friendly bacteria important to defend our immune system better.
I then head straight for my morning walk and exercise in the park near my house and it is usually a brisk walk for about 20 minutes, followed by some breathing and stretching exercises. Sometimes I do some chiqong if I am not rushing for time and by 9.00 am, I would have finished and get back home for take my favorite manuka honey with royal jelly and propolis with a full glass of water before any other food or breakfast. Honey and its supplementary products are great nutrition especially early in the morning when our system is empty and hungry for nutrition and water. The essential of water is not the topic of today, so I will not be elaborating further.
My breakfast is usually some cereal or two pieces of toast. While having breakfast, I would glance through the newspaper and catch up with some financial and global news from CNN and Bloomberg.
By 11.00 am, I would have finished with the news and wash up and start sitting in front of my laptop to write my favorite articles or preparing materials for project work or any other job that comes along. By lunch, which I usually have simple meal like pasta or fried rice or even salad, I will take a break. I like going to driving range to hit some golf balls, if I am not going to the golf course for a golf game, which is normally once or twice a week. I am very passionate about golfing and this helps to keep me going for the day. As I reside between Sydney and Malaysia, my golf game will be either in one of this places. Of course I prefer to play in Sydney, all for the beautiful cool weather except winter. Irrespective of the condition of weather, I must have sunblock on my face, neck, arms and hands before I head off for the game. I also wear my favorite hat for further protection.
If I am not golfing, I would like to visit to drop in to see my mum. My mum is over seventies and I would like to see her as often as possible . Sometimes, we would go for lunch, on other time, I would just have a chat with her. I enjoy bonding and spending time with my loved ones as it leaves me with precious memory, now and future.
I would also like to meet up with friends once a while over lunch or coffee. Meeting friends is the best time to catch up with the latest development, be it the latest trend, family matters, sharing parenting skill or plan for holiday. The list is endless. As we progress to midlife, we value friendship more in particular those friends whom we have built over the years. But before meeting my friends, I would like to do a makeover. I like to at least have lipstick on, makeup for the eyes and protection for the skin. Looking good is important for me because it makes me feel good about myself, more confident, and of course to stay attractive even at this age!
By early evening, I will normally cook for dinner if I don't go for a game of golf. And cooking dinner is simple enough for a small family of mine; me and my husband. I don't cook well and not too passionate about cooking but I make sure I have a dish of meat and plenty of vegetables, which are stir fried. We would take time to enjoy our dinner, chewing and enjoying every bite of it. It is my habit to have a small serving but with plenty of vegetables and greens.
Evening is rather quiet, I will normally watch a movie and continue with some late TV news or live golf tournament on TV before I continue with my desk work. If there is golf tournament to watch, it can stretch for hours and that could be till the end of my evening. I wish to stress that cultivate at least one favorite game is important because that will help us to get away from our work and stress. Playing game with your friends allows you to catch up with friends and games with your family helps to foster better bonding. You may not have a favorite game now but it is never too late to start one. I started playing golf only about five years ago.
If I am not watching golf, posting blog is my favorite during evening when it is most quiet at night and also I would have new articles I wish to share for the day. Depending on how energetic I am for the day, my bed time can be as late as past midnight though I have been trying hard to keep to 11.00pm. At times when I started writing, I would find difficulty to stop at 11.00pm.
Before tiring for the night, a spoonful of raw honey in warm glass of water is my favorite as serves the benefit of; nutrients and enhancing my sleep.
Before I end this post, I wish to share with you some bad habits to avoid in order to maintain a healthy brain.
BRAIN DAMAGING HABITS
1. No Breakfast
If we don't take breakfast, we are going to have a lower blood sugar level which leads to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration.
2. Overeating
Overeating causes hardening of the brain arteries, leading to a decrease in mental power.
3. Smoking
Smoking causes multiple brain shrinkage and may lead to Alzheimer disease.
4. High Sugar consumption
Too much sugar will interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients causing
malnutrition and may interfere with brain development.
5. Air Pollution
Our brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our body. Inhaling polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing about a decrease in brain efficiency.
6. Sleep Deprivation
Sleep allows our brain to rest. Long term deprivation from sleep will accelerate the death of brain cells.
7. Head covered while sleeping
Sleeping with the head covered, increases the concentration of carbon dioxide and decrease concentration of oxygen that may lead to brain damaging effects.
8. Working your brain during illness
Working hard or studying with sickness may lead to a decrease in effectiveness of the brain as well as damage the brain.
9. Lacking in stimulating thoughts
Thinking is the best way to train our brain, lacking in brain stimulation thoughts may cause brain shrinkage.
10. Talking Rarely
Intellectual conversations will promote the efficiency of the brain
Have my facts above enlighten you on the best course of habits to care for your precious brain? And if you like my post, your comments are most welcomed.
Next week, I will share more facts on our next precious organ; liver
Staying young and healthy always,
