How to develop
healthy habits

Healthy habits are the best way to maximize your enjoyment of life and help prevent illness. Making healthy eating choices, staying active, sleeping well and managing stress are fundamental pillars for improving your quality of life.

Here is a practical guide to help transform your habits effectively.

1. Identify the habits you want to change

The first step in developing healthy habits is recognizing which aspects of your lifestyle you want to improve. Reflect on your daily habits and prioritize the changes that will have the most impact your well-being.

2. Assess your current condition

As a first step in the process, it is highly recommended to work with a health professional to assess your condition and suggest the best way to achieve healthy habits. With VUMI®, you can access medical check-ups, exams and appointments with specialists who will guide you on your path to a healthier life.

3. Set clear and achievable goals

Define specific, realistic and quantifiable objectives. For example, instead of saying, “I’m going to exercise more,” set specific goals such as “I’m going to walk for half an hour every day.”

4. Plan the process

Organize the steps to achieving your goals and create reminders to help you stay consistent. For example, you can set an alarm to remind you each day at the same hour that it’s time for your daily walk. That way, little by little, it will become a habit.

5. Keep track of your progress

Record your progress. Keeping a diary or using tracking applications will help you to be aware of what you’ve achieved and go a long way towards keeping your motivation high. Every step, no matter how small, counts.

6. Look for support

Surround yourself with people who share your goals and your determination to improve your habits. According to experts, publicly committing to something helps you achieve it with greater determination and makes it possible for others to support you on this path.

7. Be patient and consistent

Habits are not formed overnight. You must repeat them several times and integrate them into your daily life. Take heart – you’ll soon be on a new, healthier path.

8. Reward yourself healthily

Recognize your efforts with positive rewards, such as a day at the spa, a book you like, or an experience you enjoy. This reinforces the motivation to continue the process.

Regardless of your age, it’s always possible to adopt healthy habits. By doing so, you will improve your quality of life and enjoy more energy and well-being. Start today and become the best version of yourself!
