Needless to say that, in order to keep a healthy body, nurturing one’s mind is a necessity. However, putting it into practice and actually prioritizing mental health(and physical health) can become a challenge. Not only do we live in an extremely accelerated world, but also in one where money and social media are the top priorities. This way, it is easy to let it fall behind. The aim of this essay is to analyse exactly the importance of healthy habits. 

Physical exercise plays an undeniable part in a fulfilled life. A little bit of movement everyday brings countless benefits short term and long term. This habit contributes to an increased longevity, a better overall physical endurance and to a better mood. Therefore, it is clear that exercising should be a priority. 

Another crucial factor in a pleasant life are hobbies. Under no circumstances can one feel whole without creative activities with no monetary income. Apart from helping us forget our problems and slow down, hobbies also improve our ever decreasing attention span. This way, one can see the fundamental part hobbies have in our lives. 

To sum up, never can we overlook the importance held by balanced habits in our lives. Even though taking care of oneself in a hectic society is an immense challenge, we have to do our best to overcome it in order to live a fulfilled life. It is not an impossible mountain to climb.
