We all know that when absorbing the right amount of sunlight, which is UV light, we get a shot of vitamin D and energy. Though when our bodies absorb light, specifically in the red and near-infrared light range (600nm-850nm) it will also shrink fat cells and allow our body cells respond by performing their natural functions at an improved level. Red light therapy helps with fat loss while keeping you naturally healthier. Try these 5 simple steps and see the difference.
Step 1. Be happy by maintaining a positive attitude
Psychology Today says, “look at happiness as a love relationship with reality” – isn’t that good? There is a lot in the world going on right now, and it is important to prioritize yourself to feel good in your body inside and out.
Pathways to happiness
- Feeling good
Self-reflect and journal – making time to do this will help you feel better about yourself. Try this meditation video, it’s five minutes long. Be sure to spend time enjoying nature, breathing fresh air and exercising outdoors.
- Engaging fully
From the influential research by M. Csikszentmihalyi who explored people’s satisfaction in their everyday activities, he found that people report the greatest satisfaction when they are totally immersed in and concentrating on what they are doing — he dubbed this state of intense absorption “flow.”
- Doing good
Follow through with everything you say – this will improve your relationship with yourself. Live in alignment with your virtues. Change your bad habits – we all have them. Track tasks and also when you complete them in a daily planner. See your life transform when you complete a month of daily tasks and reflect on your accomplishments.
Step 2. Drink more water
According to Mayo Clinic: to prevent dehydration and to make sure your body has the fluids it needs, make water your beverage of choice by drinking 8 glasses of water each day. It’s also a good idea to:
- Drink a glass of water or other calorie-free or low-calorie beverage with each meal and between each meal.
- Drink water before, during and after exercise.
- Drink water if you’re feeling hungry. Thirst is often confused with hunger. It may help you eat less and feel less hungry.
Being properly hydrated boosts your metabolism, flushes unwanted toxins from your body and it can help reduce your appetite. When you drink more water your body stops trying to retain water for later, and those extra pounds of water-weight fall off.
Step 3. Nutrition – Shift to an Anti-Inflammatory Diet
An anti-inflammatory diet should combine a variety of foods that: are rich in nutrients, provide a range of antioxidants and contain healthful fats. Eating anti-inflammatory foods will make you feel more energetic. They fill you up without getting the bloated feeling and are much easier for your body to digest.
Foods that may help lower & manage inflammation include:
- Omega-3 fatty acids – found in chia seeds, avocados & brussels sprouts
- Fruits that promote antioxidants such as blueberries, blackberries, strawberries and cherries
- Raw or moderately cooked vegetables that assist with your digestion and roughage, including kale, spinach, broccoli, beans and lentils
- Fiber – steel cut oats, nuts and flax seed
- Spices such as garlic, ginger and turmeric helps your digestive system eliminate toxins
- Probiotics, prebiotics and green tea also help promote digestive enzymes
Step 4. Get Enough Fitness & Exercise
It’s important to exercise our body and keep it in movement. Our muscles, tissues, joints and bones require movement and strength training, otherwise, they will degenerate. We will likely gain unwanted fat cells if we continue to eat without exercising. Today most Americans are overweight putting unnecessary stress on our organs, bodies and mind. As we age, we put on pounds in our mid-sections, so below are some suggested exercises that may help you become more fit and healthier:
Exercises to Lose Belly Fat in Men
- abdominal crunches
- bicycle abdominal exercise
- plank
- walk or run
- leg lifts
Exercises to Lose Belly Fat in Women
- cardio exercise
- jumping jacks
- HIIT exercise
- plank
- standing belly press
Step 5. Whole-Body Red Light Therapy for Fat Loss
The Prism Light Pod has a “Weight Loss” setting that is optimized to help users shrink fat cells and lose unwanted weight gain. We recommend 15-minute sessions, 3 times a week for losing inches and improving body tone.
The National Institute of Health (NIH) has shown a study applying red light therapy for 30 minutes twice a week for 4 weeks on 40 healthy young men and women. The subjects were asked not to change their diet nor exercise habits. Results demonstrated that red light therapy achieved safe and significant loss of fat and girth at the end of the treatment period.
15-minute red light therapy sessions, 3 times a week in a Prism Light Pod improves your blood flow, increases your body’s metabolism and shrinks fat cells. Your body burns more calories during the day leading to more fat loss and even smoothing out cellulite.
