6 Tips for Incorporating Preventative Care into Your Daily Life
Prioritizing your sleep schedule is one of the most important and restorative activities we can do for our bodies and minds. Most adults need 7 to 9 hours of sleep per night consistently to maintain good health.
2. Meditating or engaging in a mindfulness practice for as little as 10 minutes per day can have a significant effect on your mental health. While sleep replenishes your energy levels and heals the body, meditation is designed to reduce stressors and improve emotional well being.
3. Investing in natural health care treatments, from supplements to Salt Therapy, can help fill the gaps in your diet or your wellness routine in a safe, natural, and holistic way.

4. Participating in 30 minutes of activity each day can reduce your risk of stroke, cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes. Additionally, it can help reduce stress, boost your mood, increase productivity, and provide a boost in energy thanks to improved oxygen delivery to your muscles.
5. What you eat is what your body has to work with to fuel your activities and properly function! Additionally, diets that are high in sugar or processed foods can lead to health problems like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and diabetes. Don’t worry, eating healthy doesn’t have to be hard! Starting with simple changes ( like replacing butter with olive oil or reducing the amount of sugar in a recipe) can be the easiest way to start your journey to a healthier diet!
6. Receiving regular health screenings from your primary care provider is an important part of preventative health care. Many preventable injuries and conditions can be reversed with early detection or even avoiding completely by detecting warning signs.
