We all strive to live a happy and full life. We can help ourselves attain this happy state by making the following activities a part of daily living:
- Proper nutrition – include lots of fruits and vegetables in your daily meals. Eat just enough to keep you well nourished and hydrated.
- Exercise – may be a gym workout(includes strength training and cardiovascular exercise), a sport (badminton, cycling, etc), aerobic activities (zumba, dancing) or the mind-body discipline of yoga. Exercise will get your body moving to circulate newly-oxygenated blood in your brain – nourishing and stimulating it; make you perspire and remove toxins; stretch your muscles to keep it long, limber and toned. Also, exercise will cheer you up and improve your mood and outlook!
- Social interaction through regular social activities – keep in touch with family and friends by getting together with them on a regular basis. Be it drinks with colleagues on friday nights, sunday dinners with family, or regular exercise sessions with gym-mates.
- Intellectual stimulation (through recreational mind stimulating games/activities) – keep your mind exercised by solving that crossword puzzle (or sudoku),
- Vocational activities– may be in the form of a job or employment, devotion or advocacies to a cause thats close to your heart
