Here are the 9 Secrets of Women Who Never Get Sick:

1) Catch those Zzzzzz’s

9 Secrets of Women Who Never Get Sick - Sleeping Kitten — Getting Enough Rest

Sleep is a priority for those women who can ward off illness.

Getting eight hours of sleep is not only necessary for your mind to rest, but its vital for your body to nurture its immune function. Studies show that women that don’t get enough sleep are more likely to get sick when exposed to a virus. They also have more inflammation in their bodies versus those that get eight hours of sleep per night.

It’s not only the number of hours you sleep that’s important, but the quality of your sleep also will determine how susceptible you are to illness.

If you’re not getting the quality sleep you need, I wrote a post on Cozy Hygge Bedtime Rituals to Try Tonight that will have you in sweet dreams in no time.

2) Good bacteria is your friend

You can do the same by including Kombucha, yogurt, miso, kefir, apple cider vinegar and kimchi in your daily diet.

A morning smoothie is a perfect way to add kefir, yogurt or apple cider vinegar to your day.

3) Eat a rainbow

You are what you eat, so healthy women load up on vegetables and fruits that give them the vitamins and minerals they need.

Don’t just eat your favorite fruits and vegetables over and over again. Make sure you consume an array of colors because you want the healthy punch they will deliver to your body.

Orange vegetables are rich in beta-carotene, which is essential for building a strong immune system. Carrots and sweet potatoes are a delicious way of including them.

Fruits and vegetables that are purple are loaded with antioxidants, which help prevent a disease from starting. Purple cabbage, blackberries, plums and purple onions are just some of the foods you should include more of in your diet.

Red vegetables and fruits aid in gastrointestinal health. Strawberries, tomatoes, red peppers, watermelon, apples, raspberries, and cherries are the perfect choices for premium health.

Green is good. Getting plenty of green vegetables and fruits rehydrates your body. The green color comes from chlorophyll, which is loaded with magnesium. Kale, green apples, spinach, peas, broccoli, avocados, kiwi fruit, and cucumbers are some of the fruits and vegetables that will give your body the vitamins and minerals it needs.

Yellow fruits and vegetables have an abundance of Vitamin C, carotenoids and bioflavonoids which will help your immune system. Lemons, corn, yellow peppers, and bananas are just some of the delicious choices.

4) Vitamin D

Women who take their health seriously make sure they get outside during the winter season. Cloudy skies and shorter days spell lower levels of Vitamin D, which is an essential vitamin for keeping your immune system in check.

There’s a reason why winter is cold and flu season. Make a conscious effort to go outside during the day and go for a brisk walk. Use supplements to ensure you’re getting the right dosage of this essential vitamin.

5) Wash up

6) Self-care

7) Exercise

Smart women don’t look at exercise as something they “have” to do, but instead, they look at it as a foundation for their healthy lifestyle.

Instead of taking part of the latest exercise craze, find a way to move your body that you enjoy. Would you rather dance your way to health, or would snow-shoeing keep your interest?

8) Simple Living

Stress is the unwanted gift that keeps on giving. Smart girls look for ways to simplify their lives to help keep emotions in check.

In our Cozy Living Group, we have have so many new members that catch a glimpse of how living more simply can transform our world.

Most members start by going through their things and release the things that no longer serve them.

Another way of simplifying their lives is to limit the time spent with people and activities that disrupt the harmony in their world.

For some, the answer is to downsize their house and expenses. They would rather spend their time living their lives, versus working to pay for a life they don’t have time for.
