Sometimes, the beauty of living in the 21st century pales in comparison to all the rush and chaos that make you miss out on the perks altogether. We often live by busy schedules, too often letting this hectic tempo get the better of us. Whether we get sick too often or we suddenly find ourselves unhappy with what we see in the mirror, our health is often the first to suffer as a consequence of a fast-paced life.
However, even when you cannot slow down your quickly advancing career or balance between two jobs and a family, there are ways to make health an equal priority in your daily schedule.
Much like you would never ditch your dentist’s appointment, or your annual health checkup, it’s vital that you treat your health and fitness habits as equally essential in your schedule. You can use an app to keep track of your progress and see which milestones you’ve honored, or you can use a simple spreadsheet of your activities to make a schedule of your responsibilities.
Fitness is an important part of self-care, and regular exercise paired with a balanced nutrition will make sure you can give your best at work and with your loved ones – so it’s an overall investment that comes with a multitude of returns.
Few of us have the time or the energy to actually count all the glasses of water we have every day, let alone determine how many we should consume based on our lifestyle. Instead of allowing yourself to get dehydrated and compromise your immune system, you can use a simple water bottle to track your water intake every day.
A little effort can go a long way in building healthy habits, and it might as well start with a bottle of water to fuel your energy and keep your resilience strong.
When there’s no time to hit the gym, it pays to have a little version of it waiting for you in the next room. It doesn’t need to be as equipped or as spacious as your regular fitness center. On the contrary, very few items at your disposal can provide you with everything you need for a successful workout.
For starters, you can rely on exercise bikes to keep your cardiovascular health in excellent shape, while a power rack is more than enough to sustain your strength needs and give you a powerful physique. When the gym is literally a few steps away, there’s no excuse to skip your training sessions.
Getting used to cooking and storing your meals may take some time to adapt, but once you learn the ropes, it will keep your waist, wallet, and your watch happy. You’ll save hours in your day, eat healthier, and you’ll have a greater control of your caloric intake as well as balancing the right micro and macronutrients for your specific needs.
Whether you use a crock pot to cook overnight meals that can last you a week, or you opt for practical dishes such as boiled eggs, smoothies, oatmeal, and instant soups, you can keep your options open and your time in the kitchen under control.
Being swamped in meetings all day and heading home too late for dinner is no way to maintain a healthy eating regime. However, even when things get completely out of control and mess up your existing schedule, you need a simple, reliable backup plan to stay healthy.
For example, a quick homemade lemonade with a spoonful of honey is a better option than an energy drink or a fizzy soda, as tempting as they may be. Also, a handful of peanuts, almonds, walnuts or similar satiating snacks should always be within your reach to keep your energy, mood, and hunger under control while also giving you a decent vitamin and mineral punch.
Sometimes the smallest of changes can make the greatest difference in how well you live. You can begin by incorporating these little habits into your everyday life, and you’ll soon feel that your schedule is far less stressful than it used to be.
