Healthy habits of the human rights trainer Luba Lissina

IN THE RUBRIC "LIFESTYLE" we ask different people about healthy lifestyles with a human face: we talk about the importance of taking care of yourself and pleasant ways to make life more comfortable. The heroine of the new release is Lyuba Lissina, a trainer of non-formal education and human rights education, a member of the board and the founder of the NGO Trajectory.

Wellbeing - it is a feeling of cheerfulness, energy, a desire to do planned activities and a good mood.

My day begins from a large glass of water, often with lemon; breakfast - cereal with fresh or dried fruit or favorite salmon toasts.

I love group workoutsbest in the morning. I go to the simulator when there is no other way out - for example, when traveling or when there is an injury, or if you want to work on something especially. High intensity is important to me in a short time. If time is short, first of all I remove cardio: strength is always in priority.

I usually have a week 5-8 hours of training: 2-3 strength, 2-3 cardio, 2-3 stretching and flexibility. I am a big fan of Les Mills classes, body pamp, body balance, body commander, CXWORX; sometimes spinning, pilates, yoga and more. I do not like all kinds of dances - it seems to me that I am wasting time.

I would also like to regularly run - I do it in the summer, when we leave for Estonia, and I do not register there in any club and then I train myself; I want to learn something from martial arts.

Up to 35 years old I didn’t train at all and believed that the sport is not for me - now they do not believe me when I tell it. Now I have the greatest weight in all my life at the same size (excluding pregnancy) and at the same time the best physical form in terms of strength, endurance and flexibility. It's great to be aware.

I LOVE AND CAN SLEEP A LOT. If the night is not enough, I try to sleep during the day. Ideally, I need 6-8 hours of sleep, starting at 11 pm. I would like to go to bed earlier and get up earlier - I tried to do that, and the effect was very good. True, there is not enough discipline, and the schedule of the day will have to be rebuilt. I think when the children become older, I will move to my preferred mode.

I NEVER DRINK COFFEE IN THE MORNING and periodically I refuse it altogether. If you want coffee, then cook it on the stove, in Turkish, after dinner. Alcohol is not very interesting for me, but I often drink it as part of communication, it is such a social ritual. The best drink is water.

Healthy food - An expensive pleasure that takes time and knowledge; it is simply not available to most. I believe that the way people eat can show attitudes towards ecology and economics and even express political views.

I am calm about the eating habits of others, I do not impose my opinion, I explain if they ask, and insist on respect; it's not easy to be a vegetarian everywhere — a lot of misunderstanding and sometimes cheating with food; quite often you can get into a situation when trying to convince.

Sometimes I get upset about overeating: after the holidays, when food is a social rite, or when I work late and automatically chew something. I am glad that since childhood I do not like sweets, chocolate, ice cream and all kinds of cakes.

I cook myself and stay in the supermarket for a long timebecause I read the compositions on the labels. I do not buy what contains palm oil and palm oil, sugar substitutes, cheap baked goods in packages, low-fat products, just where there are a lot of incomprehensible components in the composition. If possible, buy organic products: meat, milk, eggs and vegetables. True, it is quite expensive.

I haven't eaten meat since I was 18 years old. Then I began with veganism with periods of raw food, for ethical reasons, which, by the way, have not changed - but in the last ten years I have been eating fish and seafood. Children and husband eat meat, I do not impose my diet on them. I try to keep track of moments when I eat not because of hunger, but for other reasons.

A couple of years ago, I stopped drinking fresh milk. This affected everyone, and we drastically reduced the consumption of milk with the whole family. I have less desire to eat cheese and other dairy products - I am glad about it; although there is always yoghurt and different cheese in the fridge.

My children are 15 and 9 years old. I try to create conditions for a mobile lifestyle, but this is not easy: the older one has many school tasks on the computer, the younger one has a set-top box and a television set.

On weekends we often travel somewhere. on excursions and walks, where we walk and climb. I would say that we are not so much a sport, as just an active lifestyle. Children go to workouts at least twice a week, in addition to school sports. My husband likes to organize all sorts of activities that stimulate the cultural and social development of children, but often this includes all aspects simultaneously.

I always explain my position to children, for example, why I don’t buy donuts or coke or why I don’t eat this patty. I insist that the children do not miss training, but if, for example, the son wants to quit karate - I will not interfere and contribute to the fact that he finds another sport that interests him. The main thing is to have movement and desire to develop, including physically.

I would like to teach them non-violent communication., acceptance of oneself and others, respect, understanding of values ​​and culture. An active lifestyle and a balanced diet, I hope, will become a part of their life without thinking, whether it is necessary or not; just default.

I hope that children can learn our values. in relation to gender equality and respect for any diversity in society. My daughter in some ways is even more radical as a feminist than I am. Our society is still patriarchal, so it’s impossible to disregard gender stereotypes altogether. By example, one can develop greater sensitivity to situations where disrespect and discrimination occur. You can discuss movies with children, situations at school, relationships with friends and relatives - who agree with what or not and why. But the foundation is the relationship between the parents.

With age, I learned to love myself more and my body - we are with him for so long together and it has served me very well for all these years. I try to listen to the body, if something hurts, to reflex, that it is it that is trying to tell me what it alludes to. Recently, I have been paying a lot of attention to exercise technique and safety, I have got different shoes for different workouts. I try to follow the pose while working at the table or on airplanes. I had to completely stop reading or lying with a laptop in bed - this immediately affected my back condition.

I’m hampered by traditional unhealthy habits - for example, children's holidays in terms of food are associated with chips, soda, donuts, chocolate drinks, cheap juice and biscuits. And in general, the holiday is associated with food - it is very difficult to go against it.

As for skin careFor me, the need is sunscreen almost all year round.

Age is just a figure. I am against some criteria of who, when and how should look like. I feel young, and sometimes it’s not very comfortable for me to realize exactly the figure of my age - because society’s expectations are connected with it, which do not always coincide with the way I position myself. It would be desirable, that associates did not estimate behavior or achievements of the person, correlating them with age, even if it is positive estimations.

Relieve my psyche is great helps cleaning, fragrant bath or sleep. Training, too - they work like a meditation. Another good way is a movie or book that completely captures the attention.
