Staying healthy can be a challenge nowadays. Long workdays, spending time with your family, and taking care of chores around the house can all become too much that you never have time to take care of yourself. But there are 4 simple things you can do in your everyday life to improve your wellbeing and health. You may be surprised by how much more energy you have and how better you feel by implementing these changes to your routine.
1. Drink more water
The human body is more than 70% water and for a good reason. Your body uses up a lot of water just to keep the organs going, and if you’re not regularly staying hydrated, then your organs will start to suffer.
Drinking water is the purest form of hydration, so even if those coffees and sodas are tempting, switch them out for water on a more regular basis. You’ll actually start to lose weight, improve the state of your teeth, and save more money.
2. More fruits and vegetables
It can be faster and cheaper to hit the drive-thru to get a quick meal at lunchtime, but what money you save now you’ll have to spend later taking care of your health. Adding more vegetables and fruits to each meal will make you feel full for a lot longer and keep you regular.
The addition of fruits and veggies also provides your body with the vitamins and minerals that it needs to function at its best. You can aid the process of your gut with some blue biotics to get the right flora conditions for digestion.
3. Sleeping better to improve your wellbeing
Staying up and reading your favorite book or watching a Youtube video isn’t the best way to treat your body or your mind. Just as your body gets tired, your brain needs a break too, and that’s what sleep does for you.
It provides it with the means to stop working for a while so that it can be more energized for tomorrow. Do your best to get enough sleep each night so that your body can properly repair itself and then you can be ready for tomorrow’s challenges.
4. Wash your hands
There are germs everywhere in the world, and you can minimize your risk of getting sick by washing your hands before you start to eat food, after you’ve used the bathroom (public or private), and as soon as you get home from running errands. Eliminating the risk of those germs being spread means that you have fewer chances of getting sick, even in your own home.
Try to wash your hands as often as possible if your kids get sick too, as you don’t want them to bring home germs from other children and contaminate your home.
Losing track of these tips to improve your wellbeing is quite easy if you’re not paying attention, which may end up jeopardizing your health in the long run. By changing your routine, you’ll be more accustomed to doing things differently so that these changes become part of your regular routine.

Your comment is lovely to read today, Marie. Cheers to good mental health!
Great reminders, Christy! All of these things should be part of our everyday routine, but I know I get so caught up in the busyness of life I don’t always think about them, especially getting enough sleep.

Hi Indira :D
Hi, dear. :)
Have a great rest of the week!
Great advice Christy and I agree with all of them. The last one with washing hands, I wish that all people would remember. This also keeps the house more easy to clean, no black marks all over and less risk for being sick.
It really is helpful to regularly wash hands, and glad you agree Irene! I hope you had a nice weekend xx
I had, thank you. Wish you a beautiful week <3
