Quick Intermittent Fasting Tips ⏲️

Intermittent fasting is a lifestyle change that, with discipline, can have profound effects on physical health.

  • Do's and Don'ts: Harvard studies suggest that timing your meals within an 8-hour window can improve health markers like blood sugar levels. Eg: You only eat food from Noon-8pm, 8AM-4PM. In order to reach protein goals, some intermittent fasters fit 3 or more meals in an 8-hour window.

  • Benefits Beyond Weight Loss: Enhanced brain health and longevity are among the top reported benefits.

💊 How To Take Your Dose:

Tracking your fasting and eating windows can help optimize results.

  • Consider setting specific fasting goals and tracking your progress to stay motivated and informed.

  • Prepare your body by gradually increasing the fasting window.

  • Stay hydrated and prioritize nutritious foods during your eating periods.

  • Monitor how your body responds and adjust as needed.

Embrace The “Twice Rule.” 💸

This simple yet powerful spending rule can transform your financial health and decision-making process.

  • Financial Freedom: Embracing this rule can lead to greater savings and investment opportunities.

💊 How To Take Your Dose:

Before making any significant purchase, assess your finances to ensure you can comfortably afford the item twice. This practice encourages saving, mindful spending, and financial security. Reflect on your spending habits and identify areas for improvement.

The Foundation Of Happiness = Positive Relationships ❤️

Positive relationships are foundational to personal happiness and well-being, as evidenced by extensive research.

  • Key Findings: Studies, like this longstanding research project at Harvard, underline the critical role of strong relationships in achieving life satisfaction.
