This week participating in @LadiesofHive - Contest #220; questions are:
1️⃣ What are your eating habits like? Do you have favourite self-care recipes? And do you tend to eat whatever you crave for?
~ 𝐀𝐍𝐃 / 𝐎𝐑 ~
2️⃣ Most of us are either working from home or in a office, sitting for hours to get work done. What are the hacks or exercises you do to reduce sedentary challenges?
Regarding my eating habits I have written about it before also and it does not change anything much from that, but yes, for the contest I will give brief about it once again. I like to keep my eating habits simple and clean. For me there are strictly just 2 meals a day. I follow the 16 hours intermittent fasting schedule. There are just very few days when my routine goes for a toss else my schedule is always on track. In these 2 meals, I make it a point to have a balanced nutrition so there is salad, 2 main dish which normally consist of one veggie and one non-veg and then some fruits, this is for lunch which is heavy and then dinner is one dish that's it. Rice is twice a week, on other days I eat food without chapati or bread. I am not into eating any junk food, no aerated drinks. The only bad habit I have is consuming Alcohol, which is also now cut to twice a month and only one drink.
I do have a favorite self care recipe, it's not any food, it's a drink. It's a mix of all the herbs, which I prepare everyday in the morning and then have 2 to 3 cups a day. It's my immunity booster drink. A mix of ginger, mint leaves, Basil leaves, Cloves, Cinnamon stick, Whole Pepper, all boiled in water and then a drop of Oregano oil in it. This recipe is very effective for any throat infection or cold and cough a very good immunity booster. I have been into habit of consuming it since many years and I see very good results of it.
Working from home sometimes you end up working longer hours. I work from home and there are times that for hours together I do not tend to get up from my seat and then suddenly I realize how long I have been sitting in one position which is not good. But I try to be mindful of getting up from my seat every hour and then stretch out a bit. I do some forward and backward bending and around 200 steps moving around in the house and then again get back to work.
I plan some kitchen and house work in-between so that it forces me to get up from the seat and move my body. If it's some work that does not allow me to take these breaks then I make it a point to take a half an hour walk at the end of the day which makes up on the mobility part.
Thank you for visiting my blog. 👼🏻👼🏻💖💖🌹🌺🌸

You have a healthy eating and living habits and I love it 🥰
I do routinely try intermittent fasting, after lunch at around 3pm, not eating till the next day at breakfast. Making it a habit will be really hard at this point but ironically these are the days I tend to feel most healthy lol.
Love when people recommended eating vegetables

Strictly two meals a day, that's interesting to know. I do take a drink similar to yours, I mean, with those ingredients. It's great you take good care of yourself sis.

There are some habits that do not go away but we need to get rid of them Drinking alcohol is harmful for health but you can quit it.Your recipe is very good because it gives a lot of relief from cough and cold, I also sit in the office the whole day but it is very important to take a walk in between as this removes the tiredness from our body and we can do our work better again. You should also do daily exercise in the morning, this will keep your body fit.
