Also, you should take other nutritious fluids such as milk, soft drinks, and other fruit juices.


6. Indulge in the food you Love

We have already said that you should eat healthy balanced food. But does that mean that you shouldn't eat the food you like? No, you should take the food you love but in moderation. While you have to eat balanced food, don't completely cut off your joy. Ensure that the fifth of your daily calorie allowance is allotted to your favourite food.


7. Have Good Thoughts about Others

Do you know you lose a lot of energy harbouring bad thoughts against others? Yes, to conserve your body energy, you should maintain a compassionate mindset. If you always find yourself negatively thinking about others, try practising positive thinking known as kind attention. For instance, you can practice this by making eye contact with a stranger and wish them well in your mind. Ensure that you are smiling while doing this.
