*-- 3 Simple Switches for Better Health --*

Boost Your Immunity. Change Out Walking Alone to Walking Socially

There is nothing wrong with wanting to head out for a walk. Sometimes you want quiet, we've all be there. But did you know that if you walk with someone in your bubble, or even chat with someone on the phone while stroll, it can make a big difference in fending off inflammation and the cold, flu, and other viruses. That's because socializing tempers inflammation, which helps your immune system function better.

Deeper Sleep Without Aches. Switch Out Advil for Tylenol

If aches keep you awake, swap out over the counter drugs like Advil for Tylenol. Some nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like Advil give issues with sleep by blocking your body's release of the sleep hormone melatonin. However, a long-acting acetaminophen, like Tylenol, doesn't affect melatonin, allowing for a non achy slumber.

Lift Your Mood and Feel Happier. Swap Out Old Favorites for New Pop Music

We all have our favorite songs, and there's nothing wrong with that, but if you want to elevate your mood, turn on pop music you haven't heard before. A study in Science, found that listening to new music elevates your mood more than songs you're familiar with. The surprise changes in beats and melody fill your brain with dopamine, which makes you feel good.
