Healthy habits for physical & mental well-being🤍

In today’s world, it can be difficult keeping up with new research on what’s healthy and what isn’t. The good news is that living a balanced, healthy lifestyle isn’t too difficult if a few key habits are formed.

Since a habit typically takes 21 days to form, these 7 healthy habits can become second nature in 3 weeks; facilitating greater mental and physical well-being.

1. Sleeping schedule

A regulated sleep cycle with 7-9 hours of sleep per night is essential for mental and physical well-being.

You can also use the health app at your device to maintain you sleep schedule.

2. Making better food choices

A healthy diet is essential for keeping the mind and body in peak condition. Fruits, vegetables, healthy protein, avoiding harmful foods, low carbohydrates, nutrient rich.

3. Sweating it out

Elevating the heart rate for 20 minutes at a time each day is sufficient for reaping the rewards of this healthy habit. This could be a brisk walk, run, bike ride, or hobby that involves physical activity.

4. Hydrate

This is one of the most essential healthy habits as our bodies need water on a more consistent basis than food. So don’t forget to stay hydrated!!

5. Spend time in nature

It helps relieve stress, improves affect and focus, and provides mentally grounding benefits.

6. Get pet-friendly

Spending time with animals can have a positive impact on your mood and your health in many ways.

7. Practice the art of mindfulness

Mindfulness can be achieved by meditating, or focusing on being present in the here and now – without attention on the past or future. I personally do journaling for decluttering my mind, it can help you gain control of your emotions and improve your mental health.
