8 Easy Things You Can Do Today To Live Healthier Without Changing Your Lifestyle

If that's the case, no worries! You don't actually need to make drastic changes to your lifestyle in order to live a little more healthy. Small changes here and there can make such a difference to your overall wellness in the long-term.

It's true what they say, sedikit-sedikit, lama-lama jadi bukit ;)

As weird as it sounds, chewing your food has a lot of benefits. As you chew, the food mixes with your saliva, allowing your body to extract more nutrients. 

On top of that, studies have shown that when you eat at a slower pace, you reduce your overall food intake. Therefore you are less likely to overeat and feel uncomfortable afterwards.

If you rely heavily on eating out and food delivery, consider learning how to prepare simple meals for yourself. That way you can replace certain ingredients with healthier options, while still enjoying your favourite meals. For example, using yoghurt instead of mayo!

Psychologists have identified solid social, psychological, and physical health benefits that come from giving thanks. A popular way to practise gratitude is by keeping a 'Gratitude Journal.' They found that keeping this personal journal helped people get better sleep, get fewer symptoms of illness, and experience more happiness!

At the end of every week, write down at least five things you are grateful for. Add details and people that made your week.

Probiotics are good bacteria that help enhance immune response, improve intestinal health, and help relieve constipation.

Yoghurt is one of the best sources of probiotics. It naturally contains a lot of friendly bacteria that can strengthen your digestive tract.

Visit an escape room to test your teamwork skills, go hiking or rock climbing, organise a sports tournament... the sky's the limit!

Not only will you be physically active, you'll also be having loads of fun, both of which are so important to overall health. 

If you have a long commute to work, consider listening to a podcast or audiobook to pass the time. They both have loads of benefits!

Not only do you learn new things, audiobooks can even aid sleep, keep anxiety under control, and raise serotonin levels (making you happy!)

Meditation helps promote your emotional health, among many other health benefits.

To get started, set aside five minutes of your time at the end of the day. Sit or lie down in a comfortable position. Close your eyes and breathe naturally. Focus your attention on your breathing. If your mind wanders, return your focus on your breath.

Try it out for 5 minutes at first, and eventually for longer periods of time.

Not so interested in getting a gym membership? That's ok! The Harvard Alumni Study found that climbing an average of eight or more flights of stairs a day lowered mortality rates by 33%.

So take the stairs to your office every morning and after your lunch break. If you work on say, the 19th floor, take the lift to the 15th floor and continue up the stairs from there.
