If we lack sleep, you may get tired easily and you will feel uneasy. You may also be prone to diseases because your immune system is decreasing. As much as possible, have at least eight hours of sleep every day to keep you healthy and happy. If you have plenty of things to do, manage it or finish it early so that you will have the sleep periods that you need.
3. Eating healthy and having a healthy lifestyle is also a must but oftentimes because we have a lot of things to do, we forget to eat and sometime skip a meal. Well that is not a good behavior. Despite of the things that we are doing, we must allot a time for us to eat. A couple of minutes will do as long as we make sure to eat nutritious foods. And as much as possible, avoid some vices such as smoking and drinking alcoholic drinks because it is harmful for the body.
