Healthier ways to enjoy TV time
Too much TV and sitting
Who doesn't enjoy parking off in front of the TV with some tasty treats... or even over suppertime?
For some of us, it's a fun way to unwind and switch off after a long day.
But, according to Harvard researchers, watching just two hours of TV a day can lead to an increase in health problems. Not to mention the negative effects of sitting for too long.
It's also a magnet time for mindless munching.
Make TV time healthier by giving these tips a try...
Tweak your TV time
-
Treat it like a reward. For example, treat yourself to an hour of TV after getting in a quick workout when you get home.
-
Create dinner table memories. Get creative with table decorations or settings and make dinnertime a special mini occasion every night. This is a perfect time for quality bonding â laughing and catching up, as well as mindful eating.
-
Stand and watch TV. This is a great way to squeeze in some mini exercises, get warm, and stretch tense muscles.
