We recommend as a starting place just walking most days, whether in the morning or evening or both. Once you are walking most days, you can incorporate taking breaks throughout the day to step away from your work and &#8220;change your position&#8221; &#8211; walk, squat, hold a plank, do some stretches, or practice some movements. Notice I didn&#8217;t say anything about joining a gym or a dedicated workout. Although extremely beneficial, you don&#8217;t have to start there. If you walk every day and take breaks throughout the day to stay active and change positions, you&#8217;re doing SO much for your health, ESPECIALLY if you&#8217;re stepping outside:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You are stepping away from your brain intensive work\u00a0and redirecting your energy, which will make you more productive.<\/li>\n<li>You are constantly moving which means you&#8217;re constantly asking your body to make energy.\u00a0If you&#8217;re eating real food, especially our way, this means you&#8217;re constantly reinforcing body fat for energy.<\/li>\n<li>You are changing your position,\u00a0undoing the damage of stagnant positions.<\/li>\n<li>You&#8217;re using your body!\u00a0Which is going to strengthen your body no matter how you move.<\/li>\n<li>You&#8217;re getting fresh air and sunlight.\u00a0Fresh air dilutes toxins and pathogens that tend to build up in confined spaces. Sunlight neutralizes pathogens. Sunlight improves your mood. And sunlight improves sleep.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>3) <strong>Prioritize sleep.\u00a0<\/strong>The best first step is figuring out what your ideal rise and bed times are, and slowly increasing the time you spend in bed in small increments. BTW, if you&#8217;re taking breaks and getting outside to stay active, you&#8217;re naturally improving the quality of your sleep from the sun and brightness exposure.<\/p>\n<p>4) <strong>Cultivate a personal quiet time<\/strong>.\u00a0If you don&#8217;t block out some time for yourself, you won&#8217;t have any. When you have some personal quiet time to yourself:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>you have&#8221;own mind&#8221; time :) Time with your own mind, free of external inputs.<\/li>\n<li>you can think about what you want for your day and life.<\/li>\n<li>you can organize your thoughts and your to-do&#8217;s.<\/li>\n<li>you can include some devotion, meditation, book reading, or anything else that&#8217;s important to you.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Listen in below or wherever you listen to podcasts for more on how to accomplish all 4 of these important qualities on a daily basis!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none;\" title=\"Libsyn Player\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/21778538\/height\/50\/theme\/legacy\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/backward\/\" width=\"100%\" height=\"50\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>NOW.\u00a0If you need help, THIS IS WHAT WE DO.\u00a0If you&#8217;re looking for education with the the correct information, if you&#8217;re looking for guidance on how to put it into practice, and if you know you&#8217;d benefit from the support of others,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/community.superhumantransformation.com\/?vgo_ee=GMgM8gRxKk2zIsJtrwG6WYvy7T5YEJ8ohjC9vauJg30%3D\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/paulctijerina.lt.acemlnc.com\/Prod\/link-tracker?redirectUrl%3DaHR0cHMlM0ElMkYlMkZjb21tdW5pdHkuc3VwZXJodW1hbnRyYW5zZm9ybWF0aW9uLmNvbQ%3D%3D%26sig%3D9Fu3XLMBaVHgo38Q5hhQmuTXk87C2fh5Qz93v7UtM5cy%26iat%3D1641751087%26a%3D%257C%257C26075330%257C%257C%26account%3Dpaulctijerina%252Eactivehosted%252Ecom%26email%3DGMgM8gRxKk2zIsJtrwG6WYvy7T5YEJ8ohjC9vauJg30%253D%26s%3D3d4fd035d78329fcc53b709c2a09633a%26i%3D292A296A3A4464&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1641847167659000&amp;usg=AOvVaw0rwlpRFAd_2gKnfBAq1m8_\">come check out our community :)<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This podcast takes a moment to highlight what we consider to be the 4 most important things to focus on for your health.
