Maintaining a healthy lifestyle can be challenging, especially if you have a busy schedule. Here are some of my top healthy habits that you can adopt to stay on track:
1. Plan ahead
Spend a few minutes each week planning your meals and workouts for the upcoming week. This can help you stay organised and make healthy choices even when you’re busy.
2. Meal prep
Take a few hours each week to prep healthy meals and snacks for the week ahead. This can save time and ensure that you always have healthy food on hand.
3. Choose healthy fast food options
When eating out or grabbing food on the go, choose healthier options such as wholegrain sushi rolls, salads, wraps/sandwiches with lean protein and vegetables.
4. Keep healthy snacks on hand
Keep healthy snacks such as nuts, fruit, or veggies with hummus at your desk or in your bag so that you have healthy options when you’re on the go.
5. Stay hydrated
Carry a water bottle with you throughout the day and aim to drink at least eight glasses of water a day.
6. Practice stress reduction techniques
Find ways to manage stress, such as yoga, meditation, or deep breathing exercises.
7. Make time for exercise
Even if you have a busy schedule, try to fit in at least 30 minutes of exercise a day. This could be a quick workout at home, a walk during your lunch break, or a yoga class after work.
8. Get enough sleep
Aim to get at least seven hours of sleep a night. Make sure your bedroom is dark, quiet, and cool to promote restful sleep.
9. Take breaks
Take breaks throughout the day to stretch, walk around, or practice relaxation techniques. This can help you stay focused and energised.
10. Prioritise self-care
Make time for activities that you enjoy, such as reading, spending time with friends, or taking a bubble bath. Prioritising self-care can help you feel more balanced and refreshed.
