Spotlight on 4 trends that help you feel better

Do you feel the need to refocus ? Do you want to make your well-being a top priority ? These trends are excellent ways to help you achieve this goal .
1 . Digital detox
Spending too much time in front of screens or being too reliant on your smartphone can harm your health . To be healthier in this digital age , it ’ s a good idea to learn to take a break from your connected devices or limit the distractions they create .
You can do this by uninstalling less relevant applications , turning off notifications from messaging platforms and unsubscribing from newsletters that don ’ t interest you . You can also try implementing screen-free time into your schedule , such as at the dinner table .
2 . Intuitive exercise
You don ’ t always need to push yourself to the limit to stay fit . Instead of rigorous training programs and measurable objectives , listen to your body ’ s signals and move only for pleasure and well-being . In other words , rethink your approach to physical activity . Do what you feel capable of doing and what you feel like doing .
In a childlike way , give yourself the freedom to move according to your mood or needs and rest when you need to . However , regularly moving your body is essential to reap all the benefits .
3 . Anchoring or rooting
Often called grounding or earthing , this practice involves establishing a direct connection with the earth to take advantage of the electrical currents that run through it and balance your bio-electrical system .
It ’ s all about getting in touch with natural elements , such as walking barefoot , lying in the grass , swimming in the sea or gardening without gloves . Grounding has been shown to reduce inflammation , chronic pain , stress and premenstrual symptoms . It can also help improve your mood , energy levels , blood circulation , sleep quality and much more .

4 . Mini meditation
You don ’ t need to meditate for an hour to feel its benefits . Taking a break and concentrating on breathing for just a few minutes several times a day is enough .
It ’ s easy ! You can meditate in small doses while waiting in line or while your food is heating up in the microwave . It calms the mind , lowers blood pressure , improves concentration , encourages positive thinking , and slows brain aging .
Where will you start to take charge of your well-being ?
