Whenever we think of urban life...what comes to our mind is good career, better education, swanky malls, modern facilities, etc. But there is also a flip side of it, where urban lifestyle takes heavy toll on the health. More Urban people suffer from disorders like obesity, increased stress level, depression, etc. than their rural counterparts.
Perils of Urban life are attributed mostly to stressful and longer working hours which results in body burnout, lack of sleep, eating at odd hours (and that too fast food), etc. All this together combine to form a deadly combo for the bad health.
So, what’s the solution? It’s easy said than done to adopt means for a healthy life. So here are few tips which one can adopt to be a happy soul while living an urban life:
- Take small but frequent breaks from work.
- Never skip breakfast as it’s the most important meal of the day.
- Try to keep lunch/dinner time fix as far as possible.
- Spend quality time with family and friends on regular basis.
- Don’t bring office work to home.
- Follow simple methods of workouts like using stairs, parking your car slightly away from destination and walk to reach there, etc.
- And remember, work will always be there. So don’t just work. Play too.
