What it means to lose weight naturally
Losing weight naturally means first and foremost do not force yourself with absurd diets that maybe also put the kidneys under stress, creating a fair amount of damage that is affected over time. It also means do not go towards fasting or suddenly increase your protein intake but try to eat a balanced diet without skipping meals and pondering how much we actually move during the day and what kind of training we do. An endurance sport requires a different diet than a sport that is practiced mainly with the aim of developing strength.
Taking these factors into account allows you to lose weight, obtaining results that last over time they do not “devour” muscle mass o they do not create blemishes on the skin. Obviously, sport must be practiced together with a correct diet; should be combined a ‘aerobic activity of low intensity and long duration (fast walking, treadmill, stationary bike, etc.) with one of power (weights, tools or free body) in order to burn calories and tone muscle mass.
7 tips
Let’s see together 7 useful tips to lose weight naturally and to avoid regaining it. These are small tricks that change the whole perspective on how we perceive ourselves and how we live our body.
Focus on breathing
Often the hunger pangs are a reflection of one mental and psychological state characterized by discomfort or an underlying problem. It must be borne in mind that even when we pretend that everything is going for the best in fact it could happen that we are holding back and venting into food. To bring presence and self-control (not excessive but balanced) we can at any time focus on breathing. Maintaining a long and deep breathing allows us to stay in contact with our essence, our sense of hunger or thirst.
Say it as it is
Holding back words accumulates and this also applies to weight. You shouldn’t keep what you feel inside and you shouldn’t upset your rhythms for other people. Thinking too much makes you mull over and does not allow you to release tension. It tends to accumulate and therefore it becomes easy to retain water and stress the cells, with consequences on weight. Being yourself means staying active and carrying out your essence in the right way.
The anxiety of being seen
Very often behind the accumulation of fat there is a real one anxiety to be seen, to know if we are considered. They can hide behind the weight of emotional wounds given by parents or childhood episodes and psychological support or family constellations can help a lot to understand each other better and better. Rediscovering one’s value means keep up with yourself and don’t make the way others see us too relevant.
To sleep
It’s okay to be active, it’s okay to resume running or walking at a brisk pace or to go to the gym or courses of various kinds but another really fundamental factor is in the rest. If you do not rest well and in the right hours for the internal organs, you risk compromising the construction of muscle mass and also the balance between lean mass and fat is affected. It could be safely said that the more you sleep, the more you lose weight. When you sleep, the synthesis of leptin, the satiety hormone, increases and ghrelin, the hormone that stimulates appetite, decreases. If you rest then the stop appetite signal comes at the best time. Sure the rest time varies from person to person but you should keep a pace of at least 7 hours of sleep.
Get excited
Try to do things you like, to find the right balance between the things to do and what you deserve when you want to feel good. Forbidding a trip to a country you’ve never seen before or an ice cream or a meal at a restaurant makes no sense. Always remember to choose associates that please you or even to enjoy your time alone. Emotions make you feel alive and you should try to move towards those they raise joy and lightness in every sense. Even the scale gives you less heavy results if you travel on waves of emotional lightness. Devote yourself to an art form, be it theater, painting, dance, etc.
Watch out for sweets
It doesn’t mean that you absolutely have to ban that cookie or that slice of cake, but simply observe what time you are consuming it and what dominant emotion you have in your heart. If you take refuge on sweets for sweetness, take a foot bath, pamper yourself with oil to spread all over your body and treat yourself to something you like. Sometimes the dessert is at the end of dinner, when it would be better to choose to eat it at the end of lunch. All the sugars we consume after 6pm in the afternoon they tend to create an accumulation of fat and are disposed of slowly, as well as slowing down the entire physiological rhythm of the body.
Two natural allies: honey and apple cider vinegar
There are two fundamental allies in our kitchens that can help us lose weight in an important way.
The first protagonist? L’apple cider vinegar. Contains lots of vitamins and minerals and dissolves fat deposits in an important way. If the flavor doesn’t disturb it, it would go taken in warm water in the morning and mixed with another great natural health ally, raw honey. If this drink it is prepared and ingested half an hour before breakfast you go to wake up naturally.
The honey also makes a great combination with lemon juice and hot or lukewarm water; this drink should be sipped throughout the day and returns a lot of energy as well as burning a lot of calories. You can indulge yourself in choosing the honey you love; that of chestnut has a lot of iron and antioxidants, that of acacia increases energy levels and strengthens the immune system, that of eucalyptus helps the respiratory and urinary tract and honeydew honey is an excellent natural antibacterial.
