Signs you’re living in a healthy body
2 min read
Our bodies are quick to tell us when something is amiss, an ache here, a pain there. These can be early clues to impending ill health. But we also receive signals suggesting that the body we are living in is perfectly healthy. The problem is, we tend to take this good news for granted because the sensation of good health is often overlooked. So, what are the indicators of a healthy, trouble-free lifestyle?
Restful and consistent sleeping patterns
Sleep is a vital biological function essential for life. In fact, it is as important for good health as diet and exercise. A restful and consistent sleeping pattern is indicative of overall well-being.
You don’t need an afternoon nap
Living in a healthy body means you rarely need to crash out during the afternoon. This indicates healthy adrenal function, and stable blood-sugar levels.
You have good energy levels
Regular exercise is essential for maintaining good health. If you can carry out daily activities without any pain or discomfort, and are able to undertake extracurricular tasks without running out of steam, then your energy levels are pretty much at their optimum.
You experience healthy bowel movements
If you’re pooping at least twice a day and doing so comfortably, your bowels can be considered to be in excellent working order. Anything less could be indicative of a digestive disorder.
You have a healthy urinary system
Likewise, if your pee is clear and is passed easily and without pain, you have a healthy urinary system. It’s also a good sign that you’re well hydrated and that the kidneys are functioning properly.
Yours is a healthy skin
Skin is the largest organ in our body. It’s also the most exposed, and requires a lot of protection. The state of the skin of the face and the neck in particular says a lot about our overall health. Skin that’s hydrated, supple, and evenly toned is in optimum condition.
