What You Should Really Know About a Healthy Lifestyle

It’s time to change the way you look at health and the role wellness plays in your life. But here’s the good news: if you think you have to meal prep weeks in advance and do yoga every day to get healthy -think again. A few simple adjustments to your lifestyle can actually have a tremendous impact

“Consumers are constantly looking for new and better ways to live a healthy lifestyle,” said Lauren Bonetto, Lifestyles and Leisure Analyst at Mintel.

Unfortunately, many people never get started because they find healthy living intimidating. In fact, according to Mintel research, 43% of Americans think it’s too difficult to live healthy in our modern age.

In our modern landscape of Instagram body pics and online diet fads, it’s easy to burn out before getting started. With so much information available, it’s easy to jump into some intense diet plan or workout routine without paying any attention to the most vital aspect of creating a healthy lifestyle: mindset.

To be healthy, you need to think healthy.  You have the power to live healthy, feel happy and confident, and it begins with a shift in focus.

“Imagine healthy thinking as a chain, with each uplifting thought linked to the next until you’ve built a continuous cycle of positivity and self-love.”

It looks like this: Positive thinking→positive actions→healthy habits→self-care→more positive thinking, and the cycle continues.
