How can you modify your lifestyle?
Modifying the way you live your life and making it healthy isn’t as difficult as you might think it is. All you need to have is consistency and an urge to do and live better.
The pillars of this lifestyle are sleep, diet, and exercise. Lifestyle modification isn’t just about making your body healthier but also about improving your mental health. This can be achieved significantly through building and working on the 3 pillars.
- Sleep is directly linked to what and how you feel, physically and mentally. If you haven’t had enough hours of sleep, i.e. 6-7 hours, you’ll feel drowsy, tired, and annoyed all day long and with that emotionally you’ll feel low, confused, and chaotic. On the other hand, the fruits of a good night’s sleep are sweeter and much more fulfilling- you’ll be energized, happy, active all through the day and you will be able to get things done thereby leading to productivity.
- Having a good diet is really important and the quote- ‘You are what you eat’ jumps straight to the point of how important a role diet plays in your life daily and with the long term perspective too. Eating green vegetables, drinking in healthy fluids, drinking enough water are a few things that could really help you. You could adapt to the millet based diet, zero oil cooking diet, overall a healthy food routine. And it’s not just about eating healthy but also about avoiding excess junk food. This could not only help you stay fit, active, but could significantly improve your mood and not to forget- the skin benefits are uncountable.
- Moving is important. It’s so clear that just a 20 minutes of even a light workout could do wonders for you. It could help lift your mood, help you stay alert, and get your fitness journey going. It’s not about doing a specific set of heavy, mind numbing workouts and being harsh on yourself. The goal is to make yourself feel good about yourself and let out the stress and tension that keeps nagging. Sticking to a good 20-minutes workout session, could help you, your emotions, and your body feel balanced and healthy.
