The Importance of Consistency in Your Daily Life
Consistency is key to a healthy lifestyle. I know we’ve discussed this before, but that’s because it’s true. Consistency with working out, eating right, and sleeping help you maintain healthy habits and improve your quality of life. Keep reading to learn the importance of consistency in your daily life.
The Importance of Consistency in Your Daily Life
Choose Consistency over Intensity
Extreme diets and workouts often lead to burnout and failure. Consistency with your workouts and healthy nutrition is ultimately what leads to a lifestyle change that you can live with for the rest of your life. Therefore, choose well today and you will create a healthier tomorrow. Give your body rest days and allow your body to recover. Eat a small dessert every day to satisfy your sweet tooth. Don’t punish your body for overeating by working out until you puke. Consistency gives you the power to create healthy habits and regain control over your life.
Create a Set Sleep Schedule
According to an article from the Division of Sleep Medicine at Harvard Medical School, going to sleep and waking up at the same time, even on weekends, helps maintain the body’s internal clock. All functions of the body are interconnected in some way or another. Consistency with exercise and eating also helps your sleeping habits. Usually, people who exercise on a regular basis also get better sleep. The article from Harvard Medical School shares doctor recommendations for better sleep. Here are a few that stood out to me.
- Avoid caffeine, alcohol, nicotine, and other chemicals that impact sleep
- Create a comfortable sleep environment – I’ve found that when I de-clutter my room, I am able to sleep better
- Create a pre-sleep routine – shower, brush your teeth, moisturize, read, etc.
- Do not check the time throughout the night
- Exercise regularly, but not right before bed
- Eating and drinking enough, but again, not right before bed.
