Now that we are heading straight into the cold season, it is important for us to take a good look at our health and make some improvements. Winter is a time when harsher conditions force our bodies to work hard to be healthy, and often we need to facilitate our own health by taking up better habits.

If you are looking to be healthier and happier in time for Christmas, here are some of the things you can do every day to stay healthy and strong.

Improve your posture

Posture is an important thing, and during our lives a lot of us sadly develop bad posture for a number of different reasons. One of the main reasons is sitting either on our phones or computers for hours on end and slouching in our seats. Posture is important because it keeps us standing tall and prevents us from suffering with back pain later on in life. To improve your posture you should consider practicing yoga now and again. Stretching often is great for flexibility and it will ensure that your posture stays balanced.

Get some sleep

Sleep is so important, and not many of us really get enough of it. When we go to sleep, our bodies are able to rest and recover from a hard day. Getting enough sleep allows the body to repair tissue and muscle, flush out toxins from the body, and fight bacteria. If you often struggle to get a good night's sleep consider switching off your technology an hour before bed and instead reading a book to wind down. This will help your body chill out and promote a healthier sleep.

Wear compression socks

Many of us have issues with the circulation in our hands, feet and legs during winter. If you are one of these people and you often find that your hands and feet are freezing - consider investing in Dr. Motion compression socks. Compression socks not only help promote healthy circulation but they will also reduce swelling in the body as well as reduce anxiety. Compression socks can be a great tool to wind down after a long day and you can even sleep in compression socks for a good night’s sleep.

Buy better footwear

Footwear is more important for you than you think. Our feet are some of the most hard working parts of the body and carry our entire weight with them every day. Sadly, a lot of the time feet are also forgotten about and taken for granted. Look after your feet this winter by investing in footwear that actually helps your feet. You can go to a footwear store and have your feet measured and tested to see where you lean on one side or if you have collapsed arches. Once you learn more about your feet you can get inserts for your shoes and keep your feet standing strong all winter long.

Eat healthier

Healthy eating is the easiest way for you to stay lean and fit during winter. Eat a balanced diet with plenty of fruit and vegetables, and be sure to get those greens on your plate everyday if possible. The more healthy food you eat the happier you will be!
