Healthy lifestyle is the need of the hour. While it came easy to the earlier generations these days people find it hard to follow owing to the fast paced life. People are working hard, partying harder and doing everything apart from taking care of their health. It is time we must take our health seriously. A few healthy habits can help you develop a healthy lifestyle over a period of time.
Most people are unable to indulge in exercise, have breakfast and spend few quality moments with their loved ones in the morning because they do not wake up on time. Make it a habit to wake up early each morning so that you have enough time to accommodate all these tasks.
Since you have to wake up early, it is essential to sleep on time. You must ensure that you take at least 7-8 hours of sleep every day.
You can choose to go for a walk, swim, practice yoga, deep breathing or do anything that interests you. This helps in de-stressing.
Also keep your phone at a distance when you are at home and spend quality time with your family. The rays emitted by mobile phones are harmful it is thus suggested to keep it away especially when you sleep at night.Also socialise with those who follow a healthy lifestyle rather than those who regularly indulge in unhealthy habits such as smoking or drinking.
It is a good idea to squeeze in some time to follow your hobbies such as gardening, reading, writing or anything of your choice. These act as a good replacement for the unhealthy habits and also help in keeping stress at bay.
A healthy lifestyle is a way of living that lowers the risk of being seriously ill or dying early. Not all diseases are preventable, but a large proportion of deaths, particularly those from coronary heart disease and lung cancer, can be avoided.
