New year: develop good habits and improve lifestyle

habit 1: keep running or walking every day

For a person who has no exercise habit at ordinary times, it is very difficult to suddenly ask for long-distance running every day, so if you start jogging and walking step by step, you can not only increase the amount of exercise, but also have better health effects. At the beginning of exercise, it is not recommended to directly take big strides and run. Starting from walking, after 2 weeks, 1 month and 3 months, the amount of exercise can be gradually increased, and the distance can also be gradually increased from slow walking to fast walking and then jogging. This way can increase the amount of exercise and endurance at the same time, without suddenly causing a burden to the human body.

Habit 2: eat less snacks and stick to a healthy diet

In the new year, it is ideal to adhere to a nutritionally balanced diet and reduce the intake of snacks. But even if you think so, it is also common to skip breakfast in the morning or inadvertently eat too many snacks after chatting with friends. So let’s start by changing these bad habits. Whether it is breakfast, lunch or dinner, we should pay attention to protein intake. When protein intake is insufficient, the body is easy to feel hungry, and the human body will choose snacks rich in sugar, resulting in excessive energy intake. Consciously increase eggs, meat with low fat content, beans and bean products, dairy products, nuts and other foods in three meals to supplement enough protein.

habit 3: spend every day in a happy mood

Although life is full of joys and sorrows, not every day can be in a good mood, but if you can, you should try your best to adjust your mood so that you can spend every day happily. It is recommended that you write a simple diary every day, even if you only describe your one-day trip. Write down the good things you think, the good songs you hear, the delicious restaurants and menus you eat with your friends, etc. when you look back occasionally, you will leave a lot of good feelings, which will make you feel full and happy.

habit 4: reduce the use of electronic products and stay away from electronic pressure

Today, with the increasing popularity of electronic products, people enjoy a convenient and comfortable life because of electronic products. But sometimes, excessive use of electronic products will lead to high pressure and even put the cart before the horse. For example, even in a very short time, I can’t put my smartphone in my hand. When I do things, I always think about replying to my friends’ messages, and when I get off work, I always think about using my mobile phone to receive emails… After I have formed a habit for a long time, I will have a kind of obsessive-compulsive disorder like pressure psychologically. The inability to separate work and life will also make me unable to have a good rest physically and mentally.

Therefore, we should try our best to limit the use of electronic products outside of work, or replace them with reading, listening to music, playing chess, sports, etc. on Saturdays and Sundays, so as to enrich life and relax both physically and mentally.
