Making a positive change in your life does not have to be about making a huge leap. But we believe that those little things hold people back from improving their life and world. A simpler way that more often results in actual action being taken and new habits being established – is to take smaller steps but many of them. Take 45minutes per day and change your life!
20 minutes – Go for a Walk
This activity will melt away the pounds, tone your flabby bits and leave you on an emotional high. It is free, enjoyable and already a part of everyday life. All you need to do is correct your technique, walk faster and for longer and you will lose weight. Best of all, walking makes you feel good about yourself. “For people suffering from depression, walking three to four times a week for 30 minutes has been shown to enhance their mood.
Perfect your technique: To burn fat quickly and effectively, you should master power-walking. Stand tall with your arms by your sides and pull your navel towards your spine so that your core muscles are working.
Focus your eyes five to six meters ahead and keep your shoulders relaxed. Bend your elbows at a 90 degree angle and cup your hands lightly, rather than clenching your fists. Leading with the heel, take a step forward with your right foot and move your arms in opposition. Transfer your weight through the heel of your right foot. Vary the terrain & MAKE IT FUN!

7 minutes – Take your time to call good friends and parents
One of the best ways to create a happier life for yourself is to make other people happier. You’ll feel happier as someone’s face lights up with joy because you called him to ask how he is doing. Just listen. It’s sometimes all that’s needed to help someone out of a negative headspace. Encourage your friend. The world can be a tough and discouraging place at times. So encourage someone who is in a negative situation at the moment. Add your own perhaps more grounded and optimistic perspective on the situation to lessen his or her worries and perhaps exaggerated fears.

3 minutes – Breathing
Sometimes you just have to take a deep breath. And then another. And keep doing it until it becomes a habit. When you are under pressure, your breathing often becomes a shallow and ineffective, whereas conscious deep breathing delivers more oxygen to your brain and helps you to quickly refocus. Listen to running water and breath deep, this will calm you down and is a great antidote for stress. This will change your state of mind!
