Hey guys, in this, you're going to learn the ten habits of a healthy and
long-lasting person. Now these habits have been through a whole "bunch" of books
that I've read that I've read and even studies that I've looked
at reports from, and these are habits of people who do live a very long life and
are also quite healthy, so we're going to take a look at them and see if you can
break them down and implement them into your own life so that you can be
Healthier and hopefully live longer.
1- Habit number one is that these people move around for at least thirty minutes a day.
Now physical activity has all
kinds of benefits from psychological too physiological to all kinds of even your
friendships the quality of your friendships can increase just by moving
around for 30 minutes a day because it increases the healthiness of the neurons
In the brain. Now I would suggest these 30 minutes of movement is a bare minimum
and if that bare minimum is a struggle, make it something that you enjoy doing
Like playing a sport. If you like lifting then go and lift if you like running
then go and run if you like running, do not go and lift if that's not what's
Going to motivate you to move around for 30 minutes a day.
2-habit number two is that they have a favorite sport.
Now personally I'm not much of a sports guy, but I do enjoy playing basketball
with some friends, and I think this helps a
lot and moving around for 30 minutes a day, In fact when I go out and play
basketball with my friends, I don't even realize 30 minutes has passed, it's
usually an hour or two hours and then the gyms closing, and it's like wow I did
Not realize. I spent that much physical activity, enjoying the time with my
friends having number three is that They educate themselves about the food that
They put in their body. Now, this is something that a lot of people struggle
with because there are a lot of myths and bad information on the internet but what
you can do is sort through it, so just read as much as you can, and you'll mind,
of start to understand all right this is a myth I don't need to believe this
is a bad article, this website gives out horrible information it's just something
that you do over time, you just have to continually educate yourself about the
food about macronutrients about calories, even technical stuff like how to build
Muscle on how to lose weight that stuff super important and being healthy.
3-Habit number four is that they have a meal plan.
Now this isn't something that I've really implemented in my life, but I do kind
Of have a schedule and what it is.
I have certain meals that I go through my day and I know
These are healthy enough. They don't have any major carcinogens and if I eat them
at throughout this time of the day but I generally feel great afterwards so
having a meal plan or at least a meal schedule is something that a lot of
Healthy people have in their life.
4-Habit number five
Now I know a lot of people might actually get offended about this but loving intimate is what
This means not a fling or a weekend thing.
It's just that loving intimate produces way more total beneficial
hormones in your brain than a weekend fling does and if you do weekend flings
one-night stands every week you can actually start to form an addiction and
the dopamine quality in your brain will start to reduce and that can actually
Become a negative.
5-Habit number five that you'll have to get rid of later on.
So try to form loving intimate relationships
found that people that are super healthy and live a long time have intimate relationships quite
Often anyways on to the next habit.
6-Habit number six is to drink at least 2 liters of water a day.
Now I have carried around a two-liter bottle of water one day for
so me people it's going to be a ton of water, especially if you're used to
Drinking pop or soda throughout the day. When I was little, I drank a lot of tea
so switching from tea to water was quite a challenge but now for the past like 6
months I have not drunk in anything other than
specifically water or milk, and I have noticed that one I pee an awful lot and
Two, my mood is way better.
7-Habit number seven is room temperature.
Now when I wake up like when I if I go to bed right before
I go to bed I chug usually like 8 ounces of room-temperature water and what
happens are is for some reason that helps me get to sleep better and when I wake up
boom I'm ready to go usually because I have to pee really bad, but it wakes me
Up. It's like almost like a cold shower, so drinking tons of water is something
That a lot of healthy people do.
8-Habit number eight is that they are outside a lot.
Now I got all kinds of numbers on this, from two hours to eight hours of
sunlight but I do know sunlight, can cause skin cancer if you do not protect
yourself from it well enough, but your body will start to produce more
nutrients from the sunlight like vitamin D. I think is one of the main ones and
People can actually start to get depressed. If the natural sunlight is
taken away from them, it's called sad or seasonal affective
Disorder. So, there are proven benefits of having sunlight have a number 8 is that
They get at least 7 hours of quality sleep. Now there are all kinds of tips
that I could name here to help you have quality sleep and that's what's
Important because you can have sleep. But if the lights on and there's a weird
Noise in the background, you're not going to have quality sleep. Try to keep the
light off, don't have any caffeine for less than six hours before you go to
sleep turn down most of the light even on your phone there should be like a brightness
Think that you can turn down.
I don't recommend working out or eating an hour before you go to bed, there's just tons
If tips, I think. I actually review of one of the books called sleep
Smarter, this is amazing book anyways seven hours quality sleep. It will help
you become a more healthy and then another benefit is you'll probably live
longer sleep has been correlated to health over many years in many studies
And it's just I'm not going to doubt that I'm going to get quality sleep.
9-Habit number nine is that they meditate frequently.
Meditation is not something that I normally did grow up, but I have read
many studies and have had many testimonials of people who have
meditated that it actually improves the quality of their life from handling
their emotions better to improving their sleep quality to even feeling more
peaceful throughout the day, just a couple of minutes of meditation right after
You wake up or right before you go to bed can increase. I think it's called
gray matter in your brain and I think technically, don't quote me on this I
think technically can increase your IQ over time now that's not quoted so don't
Take that to the bank but.
10-Habit number ten is that they smile a lot of healthy people for some reason.
I don't know if it's correlation or causation but, they smile a lot maybe they're
healthy because they smile or maybe because they smile a lot they are
Healthy. I just know there's a correlation between this, so I'm going to
put myself in a lot of situations where I can smile where I'm happy where I'm
fulfilled and joyful and just motivated to do stuff throughout the day because
there have been times in my life where I wasn't like that, and I would choose the
happier joyful motivated moments anytime anyways I'm gonna review these ten
Habits of healthy and long living people.
