3 Habits That Are Better For You Than You Thought

3 Habits That Are Better For You Than You Thought

Bad habits sometimes have surprisingly good sides.

1. Flirting when you're busy Flirting innocently gives you energy, confidence and a great mood. And your own partner can also benefit from this. Just because you have feelings for someone else doesn't mean you love your own man less. Flirting innocently can make you feel like you're being seen, make you feel younger and extra sexy. But if you keep thinking about that other person or if you start comparing him to your own man, you are walking on thin ice.

2. Taking an off day
You may feel guilty if you 'just' take time off, but giving in to an off day every now and then ensures that the switch can be completely on again the next day. There are two times when an extra day off can help you:if you haven't been off for a long time, sometimes the stretch is off. An extra day off can give you just that boost. That can also apply if you always set the bar high for yourself. Always dutifully plodding along makes you perform and function less well, because you can think less sharply. Sometimes your brain needs a break to reset itself. And a relaxed pajama day can help with that.

3. A dollop of mayo every now and then Mayonnaise provides a lot of calories, almost 700 calories per 100 grams. However, there are benefits to eating it. Mayonnaise is made from oil, eggs and vinegar. It contains essential amino acids, vitamin E and it contains unsaturated fatty acids, such as omega 3. These have a preventive effect against cardiovascular diseases. So a lick of mayo as an upgrade for your fries? Have fun.
