The cosy bed, the comfortable blanket, the bed tea by Mom and hot water for bath due to geyser’s switch turned on by Dad. A monotonous yet adorable start of the day in the winter season while you are at home. But good time doesn’t last forever and life is all about struggle, isn’t it?
You are now placed in a terrific organisation and living in, let’s say, a flat for rent in Hyderabad or Bangalore. Gone are those comfy dates, and winter has forayed again in your life. Because you are away from home, it doesn’t mean you are prone to sickness. With some excellent winter tips, you can take care of yourself just like your mother used to do back at your place.
- Dairy Daily
Dairy products such as milk, cheese, yoghurt, etc. are a great source of protein, vitamin A, vitamin B12 and calcium. These nutrients keep your immune system in a top condition, thus, keeping cold at bay.
- The Colourful Delights: Fruits
The sweet dried fruits such as dates or raisin, apples, oranges, etc. are some of the winter fruits that you should not give up. Their frequent consumption bestows you with a healthy body in the Jack Frost season.
- Keep Alcohol Away
We heard the sound of heartbreak, but according to The New York Times and a study by Army Research Institute of Environmental Medicine, alcohol can make you sweat, even when it is chilling outside, which can lower your core temperature.
- Be Physically Active
Don’t make cold an excuse to skip physical exercise. Incorporate jogging, cycling, swimming and other exercises in your daily routine for your good health and wellbeing.
- Have A Heavy Breakfast
A generic advice but very effective in the white season. Have a bowl full of sugarless and salt less porridge made with semi-skimmed or skimmed milk and feel the boost of energy for the whole day.
- Strive for Snug Toes
Keeping your toes warm is essential in order to keep hypothermia far away. Wear warm socks and sturdy shoes to keep your feet dry.
- Minimise Your Stress With Meditation
The cold weather, the rush to your workplace, the jammed nose and a boss on your head. All these factors are sure to shoot up your stress level. Thus, calm down your mind with few minutes of daily meditation.
- Balance Your Figure
Food is digested easily when it is chilling outside. Hence, consumption of more food with no exercise at all could lead you to obesity that in turn invites a plenty of health complications.
A Winter Away from Home
