Wie du dich in „dieses Mädchen" verwandelst: Gesunde Gewohnheiten für jeden Tag

Important points:

  • In recent months, the "that girl" trend has gained a lot of traction on social media like TikTok and Instagram. Being "that girl" means improving yourself, taking care of yourself, and ultimately becoming the best version of yourself.
  • Girls who want to embody this girl energy can start by adopting healthy daily habits that will help them become the best version of themselves.
  • Waking up early and seizing the day is the first and most important habit to live "that girl's" lifestyle.
  • If you're a night owl and find it hard to transition to being an early riser, you can take B・SYNC ON as a dietary supplement. Each capsule contains clinically tested, all-natural ingredients that will lift your mood in the morning and help you wake up with ease and energy.

If you're an avid social media user (who isn't these days?), you've probably come across the term "that girl" before. It's really hard to escape in the virtual world. You only need to quickly scroll through Instagram or TikTok to see every other girl (and her mom) posting videos of their quest to become "that girl."

But who exactly is "that girl"? When you hear the term, you probably have an image of Regina George in your mind. You know, the pretty, popular girl with perfect skin and an even more perfect life, whose presence is immediately felt in a room full of people. This is the girl who is sung about in songs.

Let's face it: we've all wanted to be that girl at some point. But what if we told you that this girl's enigmatic aesthetic isn't as perfect and elusive as we're used to seeing on our social media?

On the contrary, this girl has a certain aura that can't be easily captured in an Instagram post or a TikTok video. It's based on the pursuit of self-improvement, self-care, and ultimately the best version of yourself. This is something that any of us can achieve if we're willing to put in the effort.

Of course, every girl interprets this concept differently depending on the path she's taken in life. While there's no one-size-fits-all solution, we've put together a list of the basics on how to transform yourself into "that girl."

So put down the yoga pants (and the photos of you holding a matcha green tea while you're at it) and read on for a rundown of good daily habits that will help you embody this girl's energy.

Wake up earlier

Waking up early and setting an intention for the day is one of the ultimate hacks for girls who want to be in control of their lives (and not just pretend to be to their followers). It gives you priceless time to do things you wouldn't otherwise have time for, and you'll be surprised at how good you feel at the end of a productive day.

But if you're a night owl by nature, it's not easy to become an early riser overnight. Here are some useful tips to help you make the transition:

Go to bed early

Girls, sleep deprivation is real, and it's not pretty. Depending on your individual body clock, healthy adults need between 6 and 11 hours of sleep per night [1]. Of course, if you want to wake up earlier, you'll also need to go to bed earlier than usual to ensure you get enough sleep to maintain your health and cognitive abilities.

Try B・SYNC ON

Let's face it, everyone wants to be that girl, but not everyone has the time, energy, or discipline to make it happen. That's why we love a good shortcut! And there's a great shortcut that will help you wake up easier. B・SYNC ON is the first and only clinically tested nutritional supplement that supports and enhances the waking process, making that familiar feeling of restlessness, confusion, and dizziness in the morning a thing of the past.

With natural active ingredients like vitamins B5 and B12, zinc and caffeine, B・SYNC ON is designed to be taken before bed. The clever delayed-release capsule only releases the ingredients once you've had enough sleep, so you're wide awake and ready to take on the day. So carpe diem and order your capsules online today .

Don't hit the snooze button

As tempting as it may be to stay cozy in your bed, try to get up as soon as your alarm goes off. You could even strategically place your alarm clock across the room so you have no choice but to get up as soon as it goes off.

Take it slow

Let's say you've set out to wake up at 6 a.m., but you usually don't wake up until around 8 a.m. The most important thing is to slowly work your way up to your goal by getting up 15-30 minutes earlier each day until you can wake up at your preferred time without feeling tired. We girls are creatures of habit, after all, and changing your sleep routine so drastically will only make you feel worse, and that's certainly not what we're trying to achieve here.

Drink plenty of water

If you want to have enviable skin that glows from within (#nofilter), there's nothing better than starting your morning with a glass of water. And since our bodies are made up of 75 percent water, you should make a bottle of water your best friend that accompanies you throughout the day.

From promoting cardiovascular health and increasing energy to improving brain function and cleansing your body of nasty toxins, there are many reasons why staying well hydrated should be an integral part of your healthy lifestyle routine [2].

The amount of water you need varies from person to person and depends on how active you are during the day, but as a rule of thumb you should drink around 2 liters a day. If you're struggling to reach your water goal, do what you can to make it easier. Invest in a pretty bottle that fits perfectly in your Instagram feed, or mix your water with lemon, cucumber, strawberries, or whatever to add variety.

Go within yourself (before you ruin yourself)

Journaling, meditation, and practicing gratitude may seem like a flashy and pretentious "that girl," but you'll be surprised at how much of a positive impact they can have on your life. Honestly, don't put them down until you've tried them.

If you're waking up early in your quest to become "that girl," these habits can fit well into your extra morning time and are the perfect way to start your day.

Life is hard, and it gets harder as we get older. A journal is a great way to write down anxious thoughts to process and release them, find solutions to problems you face in life, or reflect on all the things you are grateful for in the midst of chaos.

Taking just five minutes to be still and at peace with yourself can help you release uncomfortable thoughts and emotions. Whether it's positive affirmations, visualizations, or just taking time to silence the noise in your head, meditation can give you the positivity and confidence boost you need to become "that girl."

Keep moving

Any girl who is "that girl" will tell you how important it is to take care of your health and fitness. This girl can be seen in a TikTok video putting on her Lululemon leggings and doing various yoga poses or sharing a sweaty selfie with the mirror after lifting weights at her gym.

The CDC recommends at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week, or about 30 minutes per day, five days per week [3]. But staying fit doesn't necessarily mean lifting weights or doing dog poses. Do what makes you feel good, whether that's going for a walk, jogging through the park, doing a HIIT workout, or taking a dance class.

Regular exercise not only keeps you in tip-top shape, but it also improves your mood, gives you more energy, and helps you sleep better at night - all elements that are important to maintaining a "that girl" lifestyle. Trust us, you'll continue to benefit long after the "that girl" trend has faded.

Eat well

Being hungry is no joke. If you've ever had to apologize for being in a bad mood and irritable because you were hungry, then you know exactly what we're talking about. As tempting and easy as it is to order a pizza in those moments, the key to satisfying your hunger in a healthy way (and, more importantly, keeping those dreaded food cravings at bay) is to feed your mind and body with nutritious, whole foods.

That means including plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, protein, and healthy fats in your diet. But who says healthy eating has to be boring? Get creative with online recipes that not only nourish your body, but satisfy your taste buds, too.

And before you say goodbye to takeaways forever, remember that this girl's life is all about balance, so don't feel guilty about craving fast food every now and then. After all, a cheeky Chinese meal on a Saturday night never hurt anyone.

Never stop learning

Just as the body needs food, the mind needs knowledge to nourish it. This girl knows that she is never too old or too educated to stop learning; she sees it as a lifelong pursuit and the key to growth.

In the technological world we live in, knowledge has never been more accessible than it is today; it's literally in the palm of your hand. So why not swap your Spotify playlist for a podcast that teaches you the secrets of running a successful business? Or how about taking a break from watching Friends reruns for the umpteenth time and watching a Ted Talk on YouTube instead? You could even read a self-improvement book that will help you develop better habits. The possibilities are endless, and who knows, you might stumble upon a gem that could change your life.

Plan ahead

You've probably heard the saying, "If you fail to prepare, you must prepare to fail." It's true. Nothing worthwhile in life can be accomplished without preparation, and a girl who has a plan is unstoppable.

Gone are the days of drifting through life without any real direction or meaning. Organize your life with a planner that includes your daily to-do list and long-term goals, and guide your days with intention. Whether you use a productivity app for your smartphone or prefer the good old hardback book, a planner will increase your productivity and empower you to live your life the way you want.

Pamper yourself

Self-care is the cornerstone of a "that girl" routine. How else are you supposed to put your best foot forward when life keeps throwing obstacles in your way? Treating yourself to a well-deserved pampering treatment on Sunday night is a great way to recharge for the week ahead and prevent the dreaded burnout.

So you don't need to feel guilty about putting on a face mask, doing a Gua Sha facial, taking a relaxing bubble bath or treating yourself to a pedicure. You deserve it.

In addition to the immediate feeling of relaxation, the more subtle side effects of regular self-care include improved body image, increased self-confidence, better stress management and an overall more positive outlook on life. It's a win-win situation.

FAQ

Is it dangerous to be "that girl"?

As well-intentioned as the "that girl" trend may be, it can easily become toxic because it sets an unrealistic standard for how you should live your life. It's important to remember that the romantic idea that girls always have to have their lives together is impossible, unhealthy, and far from reality. The most important thing is to slowly develop healthy habits that help you become a better version of yourself without comparing yourself to others.
