Using the mnemonic LIFESTYLE, examine your own lifestyle and fill in words/ phrases that describe your best habits of maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
L - Log or track your time daily.
- Tracking your daily activities helps you to keep on track and helps to increase productivity. Planning out your day is essential to prioritize work, especially if you have deadlines that need immediate attention.
I - Increase "me time."
- I don't know, but having time for myself helps me cope or reflect for self-discovery, especially during rough days when everything seems wrong and odd. It helps me to unwind and to become free from any stressor.
F - Fill your circle with people who cares.
- Surrounding yourself with people who cares is important. Having a support system will help you boost your morale and also encourage you to do better.
E - Eight glasses of water or more!
- We must keep ourselves hydrated. Drinking enough water will help you replenish all the toxins inside your body, and by doing so, you can be the healthiest version of yourself.
S- Start a morning routine.
- A productive morning routine is the best headstart to start your day. Don't skip your breakfast, as it helps you to keep energized and focused.
T- Take a rest.
- Of course! Rest is crucial. Don't push yourself over the limits. Please know when to take a rest, and have enough sleep if possible. Your body needs to recharge after a stressful day.
Y - You're your person.
- At the end of the day, you still need to be independent. A healthy lifestyle doesn't mean you need to rely on everyone. Being independent increases your self-esteem and establish healthy well-being.
L - Limit screen time.
- Limiting screen time helps you to establish a healthy relationship with your friends or family. Studies have shown that individuals who spend most of their time on their phones are at risk for obesity and depression and are often sleep-deprived.
E - Eat healthy foods.
- They say that a healthy body comes from what you eat. Fill your body with the necessary nutrients to make your immune system healthy. Healthy foods like vegetables, fruits, meat, fish, etc., are enough to sustain your body with nutrients.
So this is literally based on how I lived and what I consider a healthy lifestyle. I highly encourage you to make your own and make this as your reference only. I hope this helps! ^^
