Microdosing is a great way to support the process of personal transformation, but in the meantime, it is also important to address your physical health. Often only mental development, spirituality and emotions are addressed. But there is a strong connection between body and mind. In this blog, you will read how paying attention to your physical health can actually boost the process of transformation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

We humans are thinkers and generally we see the brain as the basis of who and what we are. Our bodies are nice packing material and should of course stay healthy, but many people consider their personal development more important and therefore give more attention to it.<\/p>

But the fact is: it is the body that makes it possible for you to experience life. And the health of this body has a huge, perhaps the biggest, influence on how you think, feel and perceive. When everything is in balance, such as hormones, neurotransmitters and nutrients, you have the energy to do everything you want to do. And conversely, if there is an imbalance, it negatively affects your mood and motivation.<\/p>

Those engaged in personal development with microdosing may place all the emphasis on caring for their emotional and mental well-being, but attention to physical development is thus also important. Because if microdosing<\/a> is your car’s fuel, it requires even more to drive properly, such as engine oil, coolant and air in the tires. You can think of this as all the supporting activities necessary to change.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

It may be a good idea to address your physical health even before you begin using psychedelics. It can take years to resolve a psychological trauma<\/a>. But you can always initiate the process of personal development already through your body. And that can provide immediate change.<\/p>

When you improve your physical health before you start microdosing, it can ensure an improvement in your mental health. You have more energy, are more comfortable in your skin and therefore you can already start to make changes in the areas of personal development, spirituality and transformation. After all, if you have physical complaints, you don’t have the energy to work with them either.<\/p>

So you may want to look into nutrition, vitamins and minerals such as magnesium, zinc, vitamin D, B vitamins and the like before you start microdosing. And in addition, healthy activities such as meditation<\/a>, mindfulness and yoga are also good for initiating the process of change.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Supporting your physical health doesn’t have to be complicated. It’s all about the basics: energy, nutrition, sleep and exercise. Pay attention to the points below to get a handle on this and give yourself the best start to begin your personal transformation.<\/p>

Sleep<\/h3>

One of the best ways to improve your physical health is to get a good night’s sleep. This starts with following healthy sleep hygiene. Sleep hygiene includes everything related to sleep: a comfortable bedroom and all the rituals around sleeping.<\/p>

Establish a regular sleep rhythm. Go to bed at the same time every day and get up at the same time, including weekends. Don’t snooze when the alarm clock rings, but get up within a few minutes. Is your bedroom very bright or noisy? Purchase blackout curtains or wear a sleep mask. Earplugs are also a godsend for people who wake up quickly. Avoid using screens at least half an hour before you go to sleep.<\/p>

Healthy movement<\/h3>

Exercise is also very important for your body. Try to exercise for half an hour every day, such as biking, walking or swimming. Strength training is also a good idea: it helps drain stress hormones and is good for mental health. Regular exercise supports circulation, the production of important hormones, makes you tired so you sleep better and strengthens muscles.<\/p>

Nutrition<\/h3>

One of the pillars of a healthy body is natural nutrition. There are certain types of food you should avoid, such as:<\/p>
