Our bodies don't lie- Martha Graham |
Health and ballet go hand in hand because of the demands the ballet dancer gets from their body and because of the demands the
body gets from the dancer. Though a major part of staying healthy is what you eat and how you exercise a lot of health still comes from the inside,
the inside of you mind.
Though we hear the same basic things all the time somehow they never seem to get into our head enough to actually do them so below is a simple
checklist that will bring you to absolute perfection of health. Some of the things may seem meager but they all add up together to create
the healthy you. Try adopting one trait each day and at the end of 20 days you will be healthier than you have ever been.
drink lots and lots of water
drink black tea or green tea and defiantly no coffee
don't eat junk food (you be a good judge)
limit sugar intake
exercise once a day (weather it be a short walk or a ballet class)
get at least 8 hours of sleep
limit TV and computer time (homework on computer is okay) to 1 hour max
If you get stressed out meditate try it once a day when you get home
take a multi vitamin everyday
Wash your hands (you don't want to get sick)
get fresh air; try at the very least 15 minutes a day but even that is a very little amount (leave windows open)
veggies and fruits (think like a gorilla)
take a couple of minutes each day to write in a journal and leave your mind healthy
keep your environment (room) clean and comfortable
read a good book or music every night take some time to do this and just relax in a healthy way
pick a day; pick a de-stressing day once a week (Wednesday is good) where you just spend the night relaxing
be social; make sure you are being active in the world.
cry: it makes the world seem better
smile: it makes you live longer
