What counts as living healthy?

We humans have to eat for the growth, development and maintenance of a healthy body.

We all tend to have different nutritional requirements as we grow older. We are mostly concerned about our physical appearance and staying fit that we neglect and starve our mental and emotional diet.

Are we watching what we eat? Yes. Do we measure the calories of certain foods? Yes. Are we pleased with people commentary about our physique? Definitely! But do we feel healthy? No! You don’t just need to look healthy,we need to feel it! All these don’t count if you aren’t happy. Certain research have revealed that our physical and mental health are closed linked. When you starve one,it directly affects the other.

We need to balance both,it’s like a single mom trying to juggle working two jobs to cater for the kids, having an occasional social gathering with close friends and spending time with her kids. Balance is what make it normal. It keeps us going.

You got to love what you do for you to keep going and be happy. Good health and a stable mental and emotional state is the core to a healthy lifestyle. I have met a lot of people who are stuck in this world of pleasing others and neglecting their self-love.

If you think someone is good looking, Great! You appreciate beautiful things, I love that! But you want to try out that enticing look, haircut,fashion style…. that’s not bad. It’s a great idea! But have you asked yourself if you would feel comfortable in this new clothing? If you are into something and you notice your usual comfort,confidence,care-free nature is lost,then you are neglecting something very important. Discover who you are today, live for yourself first and have an healthy lifestyle.
