Top 5 Fitness Apps Paired with the Top 5 Wellness Teas

An average human being spends around 2-3 hours daily on his phone. For those of us who are constantly running out of time, this knowledge can prove to be a boon. Won’t it be really beneficial if we could cut that time out altogether for our health and wellbeing? But, as we all know, in this era of technology, that is simply not possible.
However, we can use some time out of these hours for our benefit by using our phones intentionally. One way is by gradually replacing those unhealthy and distractive apps by some good ones. How about health and fitness apps?

Unfortunately, we are so much into distractive apps like those of social media that it is very difficult to hunt for some good ones. We can lose to these mostly meaningless apps because we don’t have enough willpower to fight and win over them.

A simple way to overcome this is by the ‘Strategy of Pairing’. It says that a new habit is created much easily when paired with a habit that is already established in our lives.

For us tea lovers, the established habit is that of drinking tea. So, here are some helpful health and fitness apps paired with some wellness teas that can help you get the most out of both the things, making the app + tea combo a part of your daily routine.

1. Runtastic Sleep Better App — Nidra Tea

This is a sleep tracker app that can help you monitor your sleep cycles and develop a better understanding of your light sleep, deep sleep and time spent awake in bed. Its Smart Alarm clock wakes you up at the ideal time during a sleep cycle. Moreover, you can keep a record of some variables, such as caffeine or alcohol consumption, stress levels, exercise info etc., to determine the effects of these on your sleep quality. You can also monitor moon phases and see if they affect your sleep.

All these features tell you how well you sleep. The monitoring done by this fitness app helps you take further steps to improve the quality of your sleep.
One such step can be consuming Nidra. It is one of ChaiSpa’s trending teas that can help you relax into a deep slumber quickly and easily. This way you will have less time spent awake in bed and more in your peaceful dreams.

2. 7 Minutes Workout App — Spoorti Tea

This is a highly rated fitness app with millions of users. The app asks for only 7 minutes of your time for your own fitness. This 7 minute workout, which can be done anytime, anywhere, is based on HICT (High Intensity Circuit Training). It is proven to be the “safest, most effective, and most efficient” way to improve your muscular and aerobic fitness, and make you healthier.

This workout consists of only 12 exercises to be done for 30 seconds, with 10 second breaks between each exercise. Thus, presenting a very simple yet effective solution to the problem which most of us face i.e. of not being able to find time for our bodies in our daily lives.

However, there’s still a problem. Our tired selves love making excuses, and the truth is, most of us do feel tired all the time. Gathering enough willpower to start the 7 minute workout daily can become a daunting task.
So, a quick energy boost is required to overcome this problem. But, in a healthy way. The best one would be Spoorti, the ChaiSpa tea well known for the vigour and energy it provides. What’s better, the tea also supports calorie burn. Thereby, providing you a double boost for your awesome workouts.

3. Yoga Workout – Yoga for Beginners – Daily Yoga App — Arogya Tea

This app helps beginners learn yoga the easy way. The fitness app also keeps track of workouts, weight and BMI. It uses 3D videos which creates the feeling of your personal trainer being physically present to help you learn.
This habit of yoga, if built, leads one to avail numerous benefits like weight management, improved cardio and circulatory health along with athletic performance. That said, just like every other fitness habit, this is also a bit difficult to build and maintain.

Arogya, ChaiSpa’s immunity special tea, can be a great friend to you during this phase of building a new habit. How? Well, its ingredients and herbs act as a catalyst and improve the quality and quantity of the benefits you get from yoga. For example, when you open your clogged arteries through Pranayam, the healthy ingredients of Arogya will be able to pass through, reach all distant parts of your body and kill every diseased cell they find.

4. Fooducate Healthy Weight Loss & Calorie Counter App — Shuddhi/ Trupti Tea

You can find out what’s in your food with Fooducate. This app scans and grades foods based on their ingredients. It also acts as a meal tracker with the help of which you can track your intake, in terms of quality of calories and macros like proteins, carbs etc. You can scan any product and the app will provide you analysed data on the added sugars, trans fats, MSG, GMO and controversial food colourings as well. Overall, it educates you about the food you consume.

This fitness app makes you realise that anything that is processed or available in tins and packets includes a lot of stuff that is harmful for our bodies. But we, in our busy lives, are now admittingly addicted to these processed foods. A tea like Shuddhi will help remove those harmful substances from your body.
Also, drinking Trupti, a healthy digestive tea, is a great way to put the right thing into your body. To consume the healthy and disregard the unhealthy, is exactly want the app wants to teach you.

5. Headspace App — Ananda Tea

This app is loved by many. In just a few minutes of its use every day, you’ll learn how to train your mind and body for a healthier, happier and stress-free life. It not only teaches you how to breathe and meditate mindfully, but also how to stay calm and focused and therefore, perform at your best always.
This mental fitness app is great for people who are just starting on their peaceful journey. Every meditation lesson is taught in an intuitive way which is loved by both beginners and experts of this practice.

So, which tea complements with this app? It is our bliss king Ananda. The polyphenols present in this tea help in a similar way as meditation does.
And as for some people, even the thought of meditation is scary. Ananda will calm their incited nerves and help them hack into this mindful practice. Thus, enabling them to have tenfold benefits.

All in all, these app + tea combos can help us grow fitter and healthier. Thereby, catalysing our potentials to lead a better and meaningful life.
