Healthy You‪!‬ Nelly Eanes

But what if you’re not stressed? What if your work isn’t particularly high pressured, your relationships are good and you have plenty of money? Does that mean you’re fine? Probably not.

We all know that stress is bad for us and this is something we get told very often. However, it’s all too easy to write this off as being a minor nuisance or frustration rather than anything to really worry about.

Good nutrition can have a lasting impact on our health and wellness, from preventing lifestyle diseases to reducing inflammation and supporting muscle growth and repair during your fitness journey.

Think of your energy as a limited resource, like money in an account. You begin the day with a certain amount to spend, which varies from person to person based on factors, such as age, sleep, stress levels, medical conditions and lifestyle.

Being healthy means more than just looking after your physical body positive thoughts and a healthy mindset are also key to your wellbeing. Whether you’re recovering from a fitness setback, or there are other areas of your life causing you stress, taking steps to cultivate a positive attitude can help to improve how you feel.

Physical fitness is not the sole basis of being healthy; being healthy means being mentally and emotionally fit. Being healthy should be part of your overall lifestyle.
