Technology sure may have set the lazy bug in us, but there definitely are ways in which we can get technology to work for us, so we can get healthier.

The benefits of practising yoga not just for the sake of fitness but also to be able to let go of all the worldly stress that we see life as filed with, are well known to all.

With this application you will also be connected to various videos that demonstrate how yoga needs to be performed correctly, and also have access to a numerous yoga related music that is sure to calm you down and relax you.

Eight Glasses a Day

We've heard it a million times, we've tried to practice eve, but it just gets so hard to remember to drink eight glasses of water every day for a healthy body. Our forgetfulness usually leads us to drink about four or five glasses a day and that about it. What if you could keep a track of the number of glasses of water you've had in a day? Wouldn't that be s convenient? Now that is possible with the Eight Glasses a Day app that will do the job of reminding you! Once you get this app for your iPhone, you'll see eight full glasses of water on your screen, and as you drink a glass of water all you need to do is tap tone glass, which will then show as empty! If you do finish all eight glasses in a day, you'll get the benefit of some cool facts as to why drinking water helps us. Just what the doctor ordered!

Six Pack App

Being dying to look like that fab model? Want so desperately those six pack abs? Worry not; this app might just set you on the right course. If you download the Six Pack App from iTunes, you can enjoy the benefits of viewing different exercises, more than 400 pictures and detailed descriptions on how to target your chest, shoulders, back, legs, biceps and triceps. And the best part for all you fitness junkies is that this app comes for absolutely free!

Meal Diary

It is true, that most often our excess weight is put by binging on food and eating more than we have to. Isn't it hard to keep a track of all that you eat all day? It was suggested earlier to keep a diary that will help you monitor your food intake every day but with the iPhone age, that seems pointless simply because, you can now get better results with the Meal Diary app on your iPhone. With a mere two taps, you can now find out just how much your intake has been and how many calories you burnt. Meals can also be classified on the basis of small, medium and large, and it's no question that using this app can easily become a routine.
