Stress & your wellbeing

Official dgivens

I’m living with chronic pain and my stress level is through the roof. But you have to find a balance. Focus on your wellbeing.

We know that stress can have a significant negative effect not only on our mental health, but also on our physical health. It is first important to note that long-term exposure to stress can lead to various mental health problems such as anxiety and depression. Stress can cause us to feel overwhelmed, irritable, and unable to concentrate or make decisions. As a result of stress, we can also have trouble sleeping, resulting in insomnia or poor quality sleep.

It will come as no surprise to anyone that stress can have a negative impact on our body. It has the potential to weaken our immune system, making us more susceptible to illnesses and infections as a result. The effects of chronic stress can include an increase in the risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, and diabetes, including coronary artery disease and stroke. Physical symptoms such as headaches, muscle tension, digestive issues, and even chronic pain can also be manifestations of stress. In addition to that, stress is a significant factor that negatively impacts our behavior and lifestyle choices, leading to overeating, substance abuse, or a lack of motivation to exercise, all of which can have serious consequences on our health. Stress affects our well-being in a number of ways that cannot be quantified or ignored, and it should not be underestimated.

The following are some of the things that I do in order to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Although I don’t do all of these things, I am working towards including them all in my everyday routine as soon as possible. So check out these tips and work on improving your wellness habits if you haven’t already.

For a healthy, balanced lifestyle, maintaining wellness habits is essential to keep your body in good shape. There are many aspects that contribute to our physical, mental, and emotional well-being in our daily routines. We can improve the strength and energy of our bodies by regularly exercising, such as doing yoga or participating in fitness activities. As well as reducing stress and improving mental clarity, mindfulness and meditation can also be beneficial for improving your wellbeing.

Healthy eating habits, such as eating nutritious foods and staying hydrated, contribute to a feeling of well-being by ensuring your body gets the nutrients it needs. Aside from that, getting enough sleep, taking nature walks, and engaging in self-care activities are also important to nurturing our well-being and ensuring that it is in good health. As a result of incorporating these wellness habits into our daily lives, we can enhance our overall quality of life and achieve a sense of balance and fulfillment throughout our lives.

Hopefully some of these tips can be helpful to you, and I hope you can use some of them to improve your overall wellbeing.

Favorite fruits

Official dgivens

List your top 5 favorite fruits.

Among my favorite fruits, strawberries, apples, honeydew melons, cantaloupes, and pears are my top five. However, I also like blueberries & raspberries in my smoothie bowls. In addition, I also eat bananas but I do not consume a lot because they are starchy and they are high in sugar. Additionally, I enjoy grapes and cherries in moderation because they contain a high level of sugar. Apples are my go-to fruit.

One small step

Official dgivens

What’s one small improvement you can make in your life?

It is one of the smallest improvements that you can make in your life is to start a daily gratitude practice as a small but valuable change. Make an effort every day to reflect on the things in your life that you are grateful for and write them down in a journal as often as possible. This can help you cultivate a more positive attitude towards life, reduce stress and anxiety, and improve the quality of your life in general. Creating a habit like this is not difficult because it doesn’t require a lot of time or effort, but it can have a huge impact on the way you think and on how you feel.

Let me be the judge

Official dgivens

What’s a job you would like to do for just one day?

Just one day, I’d like to be a judge. There is too much stuff that is being swept under the rug that should be dealt with differently. The changes I would like to make will benefit our country in the long run.

Just lose yourself sometimes

Official dgivens

What activities do you lose yourself in?

In my spare time, I enjoy playing video games. It has been a part of my life since I was a child. There is no doubt that I can spend hours playing on my PlayStation. In my experience, the more action-driven the game is, the more time I can devote to it. As long as I am able, I will continue to play video games.

In addition to that, I am also able to lose myself in a great book. The pleasure of reading and expanding my knowledge is something I enjoy very much. My favorite books are those that are either self-help or business related. I believe that learning is the key to success.

There is one other thing that gets me in a zone, and that’s these adult coloring books that I find to be really relaxing. In the past few weeks I’ve started coloring in them, and each time I do it, it’s like I zone out. There is something so calming about it.

Dreams

Write about your dream home.

My dream home isn’t really a dream home. Honestly, I’m not too complicated. As long as it’s nice and warm, and keeps us safe, that’s all I need.

A few additions would be great for my house. The first thing would be a pool, the second would be a pavilion for family time. It’d be cool to have a fire pit and an outdoor kitchen. I’d be happy with a nice office and a game room.

The thought may have crossed my mind. Despite that, I’m really happy and content with the home I own right now. Our lives have been blessed by God, and we are grateful.

Stay blessed
