Alcohol & Smoking – It is always good to be a non-smoker any day as smoking gets you a lot of nicotine in your body, affects the quality and health of your lungs and consequently your heart as well. Heavy smokers get breathless while climbing up the stairs and feel uneasy and heavy in their heart. Most of the patients with cardio vascular problems are smokers or have been smokers in the past. Smokers are advised to quit the habit for good to have an overall good health and once they do that they will see the difference themselves, bubbling with energy if they add an exercise routine to it.
Same with alcohol consumption, one who consumes alcohol regularly is poised to often have hangovers the next morning, slowing him down and affecting his work routine which in turn makes him irritable and consequently affecting the quality of life. If on has to, it is always advisable to take in a moderate quantity and more so occasionally if and when an occasion requires where one cannot escape from it.
Screen Time
13. Screen time – In todays world there is no way one could avoid using a mobile phone, laptop, desktop or a tablet. And as more and more of work is now being done using these devices it is becoming a health hazard in itself. This adversely affects the health conditions of those who have to work long hours using a laptop or a desktop. The areas more prone to this are the eyes and the spine. These people more often than not complain of recurring back aches and eyesight issues and generally end up having to wear eye glasses. To maintain a good health, a good spine posture plays a vital role, so one should always take a couple of minutes break from the screen, walk around for 5 to 10 minutes or so to reduce the stress on the spine.
Positive Mindset
14. Positive mindset – A golden key to a good health is a positive mindset which makes one keep cheerful, happy and full of enthusiasm. Mind you, this phenomenal word ‘enthusiasm’ works miracles – the word itself is derived from the Greek word ‘enthous’ which means ‘full of God’. One who is always enthusiastic will never be depressed or sad, on the contrary he will be full of action and ready to put his best efforts wherever he is or whatever he is doing. Having a positive mindset is so stimulating that the brain starts producing chemicals which work wonders for the physical body and well being leading to an enhanced level of joy and happiness.
Remaining Socially Connected
15. Remaining socially connected – It is said that ‘Man is a social animal’ and cannot and should not remain isolated from the society leading to a disease like situation called loneliness. A person with a positive mindset will, as mentioned earlier, will always remain cheerful and being cheerful, he is bound to stay socially connected with his childhood friends (which is the best antidote for loneliness), his other friends and colleagues, his brothers and sisters, his relatives, and above all spend quality time with his own nuclear family. All this works as a concoction and a support system that keeps him mentally calm, having a peace of mind that invariably works allround to enable him to follow all the measures for having a good health.
CONCLUSION
Most of us generally are practicing and following most of the points mentioned above and all they need to do is to focus on the ones that they are actually not implementing and following. For example, one is taking a nutritious diet but at the same time is also consuming a lot of junk food with a lot of sugar content and unhealthy fats which offsets the benefits of a nutritious diet to a great extent. This can very easily be avoided or minimized. Or one is taking a nutritious diet but at the same time indulging in over eating as well leading to excess weight.
Many of us, mainly the younger generation, are spending a lot of time on social media and glued to their mobile phones till late at night so sleeping late and not getting the proper sleep of 7 to 8 hours which may not be much of an issue for them as the bodies are young and can presently cope with it but gradually with time this habit will start having its adverse affect in different ways without them even realizing the co-relation between the two.
Most of us are keeping a good health on the face of it but not doing any kind of daily exercise and it seems alright, but the beauty of a daily exercise routine followed religiously is that it builds on immunity and helps you in adverse situations when they arise, maybe in the form of a physical ailment, or a bad phase in life as exercising or meditating develops a positive mindset which helps you cope with the situation at hand.
