Your
health is your wealth. A healthy man is a wealthy man, literally. You
may think of a tycoon who owns so much material wealth but their health
troubles them. What is the point of all the material wealth if you
cannot enjoy it? The money spent on doctors could have been channelled
in other better avenues. Similarly, ever thought of how quick an
employee gets replaced at work? You probably fell ill or a colleague
passed on. The job vacancy goes up no sooner than the bad news leaves
your mind.
Therefore, it is important that you take care of your
health. It is with this in mind, we have noted down these health tips.
There are simply recommendations. We are free to do more or less, as per
what we desire.
1. Drink Water
This may sound cliché but it
is very important. Top of the list in good health tips to practise is
staying hydrated. The human body functions mainly on water. Take a
person who is fasting, they can do away with food but they are allowed
to take water. Water keeps you alert and keeps your body functional. At
times, people have headaches simply because of dehydration. However,
most people are quick to take paracetamol tablets. It is recommended
that you take between 6 - 8 glasses of water every day. Stay hydrated
and you definitely will remain rejuvenated.
2. Work out
Among
daily health tips that we should not compromise is working out. Now,
you don't need to have a gym membership. Life is not as complicated. We
all want to have the gym membership but what if you don't? You can
simply buy a skipping rope and put in the cardio at home. Get a
comfortable pair of trainers and have a morning or evening run. If
that's too much, walk. If you own a pet, this can be ideal timing for
you to bond.
3. Meditate
The career woman today has so much
going on in her daily activities. She ought to be a wife at home, mother
and deliver at work. It is very easy to lose yourself when so much is
expected of you. Among the health tips for women would be embracing
meditation. Most people say they don't have time for such but if it is
important, you find time for it. Take time alone and just get lost in
your positive thoughts. Visualize or even take part in yoga. You take
control of your emotional health particularly which is very important.
4. Sleep well
Sleep
is a very debatable subject. Some people prescribe 8 hours of sleep
while others prescribe 6 hours. In the same line of thought, you hear of
very successful people who sleep for 4 hours and are very functional.
Therefore, my recommendation is sleep well. It is not the quantity but
quality of sleep that counts. If you sleep for 10 hours and it's a noisy
place, you won't rest well. You can however sleep for 2 hours in a very
serene environment and get up very energetic. It is the quality that
counts, not the quantity.
A power nap in the afternoon is said to
keep one youthful. I don't know how true it is but there could be truth
to it. What I know is that when you feel sluggish in the afternoon, a
power nap goes a long way. There is no point of dragging through your
tasks yet you can just sleep for ten minutes and be rejuvenated.
However, do not be a serial afternoon sleeper and call it a power nap.
That is outright laziness.
5. Eat well
Among the good health
tips to practise on a daily is your diet. Having a balanced diet is
very important. Your body will not lack anything. Similarly, with food
it is the quality and not quantity that matters. You may eat so much but
your body will only take up what it needs. That roast beef can be very
tempting but your body will only take up the amount of protein needed.
Just have the appropriate serving for you. What is not used up ends up
being fat in your body.
6. Laugh more
As absurd as it
sounds, this is the easiest good health tip you can utilise. We live in a
world where everybody is focused on getting things done. People no
longer savour the taste of good food. People can't smell well brewed
coffee. It is sad. People's moods are at an all time low. To avoid this,
just afford a good laugh each day. Find humour in the little things. If
laughing is tedious, smile. You never know who you will smile at and
they will have a great day just because of your smile.
7. Socialise
Perhaps
you are wondering what this means? In the office setting, people don't
necessarily socialise. Everyone is doing what brought them there and are
quick to head home as soon as they are done. Not many people would say
they are close to their colleagues. We don't know what challenges our
colleagues may be facing at home. Similarly, people don't know if you
have challenges.
It is a great daily health habit to socialise
especially with your loved ones. Make time to be with your family. This
is perfect to get away from the hustle of making a living. Through
family and loved ones, you get to appreciate what life has to offer. You
count your blessings and just soak in each moment.
Leading a
healthy lifestyle is an option each of us can make. It can be
challenging however, since not many people appreciate healthy living. Or
maybe they do, they are just not willing to put in the work. Therefore,
be the agent of change. You can exemplify what healthy living is like.
If you don't practise any of the above daily healthy habits, there is
hope. Just practise with one. Increase your water intake or just sleep a
bit better. With time, you will reap the benefits.
