题目内容:
Making these easy tasks part of your morning schedule will improve your nutrition, energy, and mood today﹣and beyond.
6:00 a.m.
STRETCH IN BED
Try this even before you open your eyes. Lift one arm and begin by stretching each finger, then your hand, then your wrist, and then your whole arm. Move on to the other arm. Then stretch your toes, feet,ankles, and legs. Finally, end with a neck and back stretch that propels you out of bed. You've just limbered up your muscles and joints and enhanced blood flow throughout your body, providing a shot of oxygen to all your tissues. Take up the entire length of the bed when you stretch. According to Harvard University psychologist Amy Cuddy, this display of power is typical of a bold person, making you feel more confident all day long.
7:00 a.m.
EXERCISE A BIT﹣ON AN EMPTY STOMACH
Working out before you eat, researchers say, encourages your body to burn more fat for energy rather than relying on carbohydrates from food. In a Journal of Physiology study, participants who exercised after breakfast still gained weight (as did a control group who didn't exercise), but those who exercised on an empty stomach did not. Moreover, research from the University of Vermont shows that the mood﹣enhancing benefits of a 20﹣minute workout can last for 12 hours, a boost you'll want to enjoy all day long.
BREAK YOUR FAST TWICE
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so why not have two? A study published in the journal Pediatric Obesity tracked the weight and breakfast﹣eating patterns of 584 students over two years. They found that frequent breakfast skippers showed increased odds of becoming overweight or obese compared with those who ate two breakfasts (one at home and one at school). The sensible takeaway: If you eat more in the morning, you'll be less likely to snack at night, when it's harder to burn off calories.
8:00 a.m.
SEEK OUT GOOD NEWS
In a 2015 study, researchers asked one group of participants to watch just three minutes of positive,solutions﹣focused news (such as a video of a 70﹣year﹣old man who got his graduation certificate after failing the test dozens of times). These participants were 27 percent more likely to report a few hours later that their day had been "happy" than people who watched negative news in the morning. Study author Gielan also cited substantial evidence that negative moods affect workplace performance.
Voila! You've improved your state of mind, your health, and your productivity﹣all before the weekday has even begun. Now you're ready to conquer your to﹣do list for today and every day.
