The Long Term Economics Of A Balanced Lifstyle

In todays fast pace society we are convinced that there are just not enough hours in the day to get the whole shooting match done. Well there are as many hours in the day as always. In modern times, we are blessed with all means of time saving technology, but still complain, the equation does not balance, is there not more time to enjoy the kind of lifestyle we desire? But it seems even in off mode people still rush seeking enjoyment, any disturbance from the harsh realities of life will do.
Just allow enough time to prepare a healthy meal and enough time to enjoy its flavour. Eating on the run is a major contributor to obesity and all its side effects, any doctor will advise. Are we forgetting how to eat properly? Consuming an average meal should take no less than 30 minutes. Chewing food slowly and wholly produces enzymes that break down the fats and lessons the burden on the digestive system further down the line. If you want to be a Sumo wrestler then eat a hearty meal and go sit in front of your desk or the telly.


As a trained bachelor, with a full time job in fashion , a transactional website to maintain, an avid blog ger, brand developer and very amateur author of odd fashion reviews, I have learnt to maximise time, beginning with the end in mind. Always keeping myself in check, ensuring a balanced approach to work, play and recreation is maintained. At this time I would like to point you to a passage in Stephen R Covey's best seller "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People", where strong emphasis is placed on putting "First Things First", e.g. Take care of your own well being first, then your family, religious activities and fourthly, work. This holistic epistemology goes a long way to avoiding a chemical imbalance due to overwork, poor diet and lack of exercise, which approaches you to all kinds of illnesses.

Life in general can be a continual impasse and no matter how resilient the slightest imbalance can give rise to diseases that lay dormant in our own bodies. Strengthening your immune system is like fortifying against attacks that can zap your stamina like a punch to the liver. Exposure to the elements, relying less on external methods of heating and cooling will go a long way to this end. Like religion is not something confined to a definite day, more so a part of your daily life, the morals and teachings that have been passed down become constitutional good habits, and reliance on these principles becomes foundational to your family and able activities. Taking care of your own well being requires a disciplined approach, things to do religiously, not dogmatically.

If you invest time money and effort into taking care of your self in youth, then you will save repairing the damage as you grow older, remembering inflation does not distinguish. This is a basic economic approach to lifestyle ; a long term plan for the rest of your life.

Like the old saying goes, "everything in moderation" We seem to be opposing this timeless aesthetics with extremism, extreme sports, over work, over exercise, eat too fast, jog too much, drink too much.

Detoxify the natural way through diet and exercise.

To escape the harshness's of reality, try a little shopping therapy, depending on the weather, either traditionally strolling down the high street or online in the comfort of your own home.
