***Each time you swear that starting a new year will begin a new life? It is not easier if you didn't set yourself doable tasks. Start small. Here are 12 little things that you can do to change your life for the better.***

1. In the morning we take a shower, cleansing the skin, but our internal organs are also eager for a shower. On an empty stomach, drink 1 cup of boiled water, you can add 1 tsp. honey. 2. Include in your daily diet low-fat dairy products with bifidobacteria. A great option is kefir, drink it 2 hours before bedtime. Kefir with such useful fillers will not only improve the work of the stomach and intestines, but will not allow harmful microorganisms to develop and strengthen the cardiovascular system.

3. Replace sugar with honey. Of course, you will not lose weight from honey, but unlike sugar, it is simply crammed with useful substances: vitamins, potassium, sodium, calcium, iron, phosphorus, manganese, magnesium, copper, zinc, volatile, citric, and lactic acids. Honey slows down aging, restores tissues, participates in the formation of hormones, speeds up metabolism, fights pathogens, improves digestion, tones and soothes depending on the variety. If you are not able to refuse cakes and other sweets, choose or cook those made on honey, there are many of them now. However, remember that honey should not be put in hot tea or water: then the beneficial substances will disappear. 4. In the morning create a good mood. It only takes you a few minutes. Psychologists call this exercise "working with a mirror." Surely your home has a mirror in which you are reflected in full growth. After the morning shower, stand in front of this mirror more closely, smile, look at yourself and praise yourself, say, for example, the following: “How beautiful I am, how bright my eyes are, how thick my hair, what a seductive chest, what a sexy tummy.” If you do this exercise every day, then after a few days you will feel how you will become more confident in yourself, more fun and ready to fight any failures. 5. The boss shouted at you or your foot was squeezed in the subway, your mood is nowhere worse. Returning a good mood is very simple. Straighten your back, straighten your shoulders and smile. This is what a happy person looks like. The secret is that when you artificially accept the "pose of happiness", impulses from the muscles will go to the brain and it will really begin to produce endomorphins - hormones of happiness. 6. Buy arch support and insert them into your shoes. It is best to do this in a specialized orthopedic store, there a sales assistant will help you choose the right arch support. What are they needed for? Firstly, your posture will become better, secondly, your legs will not get tired, and thirdly, this is an excellent prevention of diseases of the feet and legs 7. Introduce olive oil into your diet. Scientists have found that the inhabitants of the Mediterranean are less susceptible to atherosclerotic diseases precisely because they constantly consume olive oil. With the help of olive oil, vitamins A, E, D are better absorbed, it nourishes the brain, prevents the development of tumors, has great energy strength and has a slight laxative effect. 8. Only start cooking when you are in a good mood. Otherwise, the dishes will turn out tasteless and will not bring the body any benefit.

9. Do you often have to ask what you are told? It may very well be that the deafness did not appear at all. After 40 years, people often have a secret of glands in their ears - sulfur plugs. They can only be removed by a doctor, so visit the otolaryngologist. And your hearing will improve immediately. 10. Make a faithful four-legged friend! A dog is a living source of joy. And also a real doctor. When you pet your favorite dog, the heart rate slows down, breathing becomes even, muscle tension decreases, and you fall into a state of relaxation. Remember that the main causes of an unhealthy lifestyle are lack of physical activity and lack of fresh air? Owners of dogs go for a walk in any weather and any mood. British researchers have estimated that dog lovers spend at least 8 hours a week in the fresh air. And they walk, as a rule, in squares and parks. On walks, they do not just walk, but also play with pets. And veterinarians noticed that 70% of dogs have the same diseases as the owners. This, in their opinion, confirms the theory that dogs pull on themselves part of the diseases of the owners. 11. This, of course, can not be called a trifle, but it is a very effective way to turn back the clock. Plan to have a baby at age 50. By this time, the female body is tuned in to fading, and pregnancy and childbirth will force him to change the program and switch to a rejuvenation course. Psychologically, you will also feel completely different: you will have to lead an active lifestyle for a long time to raise and raise a child. 12. Smile more often! A simple smile is an effective means of combating not only a bad mood but also colds, flu, infectious, cardiovascular and other diseases. Scientists have found that when we smile and because of this we stretch our facial muscles, they send signals to the brain, and that in turn activates blood circulation and the production of useful antibodies that fight viruses and bacteria. A smile relieves stress and sets the brain to work productively. Smiling is not so difficult. On the street, pay attention to children and animals; for most people, their behavior causes emotion and a smile. Review your favorite photos. Turn on the TV while showing comedies, entertainment programs, read jokes. Scientists say that even when you’re completely unhappy, and you stretch your mouth in a smile, the brain will still receive a positive signal, and the mood will really improve. Psychotherapists advise starting the day with a simple exercise. Stand in front of the mirror and smile for yourself.
