Our routines hold incredible power to enjoy the multiplying effects of creating good habits
Here are some of the top habits that will have a positive impact on your holistic wellness, courtesy of Momentum Multiply.
We are creatures of habit. But that doesn’t mean that we’re destined to repeat the same rituals. Intentionally adopting health-conscious habits into your daily routine will ensure you reap longer-term holistic wellness benefits.
Practice mindful eating
Learning to practice mindful eating where you are truly present when having a meal, can go a long way in achieving long-term health. Pay attention to the taste, texture, and sensations of food, and listen to your body’s hunger and fullness cues. Instead of reaching for unhealthy snacks, consider incorporating nutritious alternatives that will help nourish and heal your body like fruits and nuts. According to studies, mindful eating can also improve weight loss by changing eating behaviours and reducing stress.
Get enough sleep
In the hustle and bustle of modern life, establishing a consistent sleep routine can significantly improve the quality of rest and overall well-being. Try incorporating calming nighttime rituals like a soothing cup of herbal tea, a magnesium-rich bath, or light meditation before you end the night.
The use of digital tools can help you monitor and track your sleep quality to know if your body is under pressure and needs more mental and physical recovery. The team at Momentum Multiply has created Recharge Dayz, which is a great way of helping members measure sleep recovery and stress upon waking. Members can also access a range of partner benefits such as Calm, to help take care of mental and physical stress.
Get moving
Introducing regular physical activity into your daily routine is crucial for maintaining overall optimal health. For example, if you are trying to get more steps in, schedule a daily walk and stack it with something enjoyable you already habitually do, like catching up with your long-distance bestie. Once established, the routine of regular physical activity can be self-sustaining as it becomes a natural part of your lifestyle.
Limit screen time
With the increasing reliance on digital devices, individuals find themselves spending extended periods in front of screens. Excessive screen time can contribute to eye strain, disrupted sleep patterns, and decreased productivity. Consider implementing screen breaks, setting device usage limits, and engaging in offline activities like exploring new hobbies, carving out regular meditation, exercise or selfcare sessions to strike a healthier balance.
“Small changes in behaviour such as paying more attention to your sleeping patterns, what you eat, exercise and how you connect with those around you, can promote better health. Incentivising these small gains through rewards or recognition can help motivate individuals to make healthier choices and sustain these habits over the long term”, says Márcia Eugénio – Head of Momentum Multiply.
By incorporating these habits into your daily life, you can build a strong foundation for lasting health and well-being.
