Your body needs good quality sleep to function properly so I recommend that you try and cut down on products containing caffeine, tobacco products containing nicotine, the use of toxic chemicals in the home and at work. In addition where possible take prescriptions drugs only where absolutely needed and take care when using over the counter medications. Most of these products contain chemicals which stimulate the body making it harder to get to sleep at night.

You should try and stop drinking any kind of soda’s, juices and hot beverages which contain caffeine after 8pm. Some poeple find that a cup of warm milk helps them sleep. You should also try not to smoke after 8pm and ideally start taking measures to help you quit smoking all together.

If you are new to walking for exercise I recommend that you don’t over do things it is all to easy to cause injury or worse if you push to hard at the start. Walking should leave you energized not collapsed on the sidewalk. Remember build up slowly and slowly and you won’t go far wrong.

So you’ve made the decision to start a program of walking but it can been really boring on your own. Why not ask a girlfriend or boyfriend along as well. You’ll be able to chat about things while you work on keeping your body healthy and staying younger.

After a brisk walk make sure you cool down and relax afterwards for a few minutes.Trainers of athletes refer to this period as the cool down or warm down. When walking at a steady up tempo pace your heart rate will increase and this time will give it chance to get back to normal. Just slow down and relax until you’ve cooled down and your heart beat is back to normal resting rate.

When you find you can’t sleep and your mind won’t relax after a busy day instead of getting up and turning on the TV. Sit in a arm chair and do some gentle stretching exercises maybe listen to some relaxing music or meditate.
