Even the sparrows on the roof are chirping about the key ingredients of a healthy lifestyle. Let's eat more fruits and vegetables, consume less alcoholic beverages and coffee. Let's sleep, meditate and exercise. Although it sounds simple, we all know that living a healthy life requires a discipline that few possess. To make your way to this goal easier, we've found 10 realistic ways to live healthier.
Since a healthy lifestyle doesn't have to be drinking kale smoothies, eating quinoa and sprinkling a heaping tablespoon of flax seeds on everything every day, we've found 10 realistic ways to live a healthier life.
1. Let's eat mostly unprocessed food
Our diet should consist mainly of fruits, vegetables, lean meat and cereals. If we avoid all processed food, we will feel even better.
2. Let's go
Whenever we have a choice, we choose to walk. Lift/car/bus or walk? Let's not be lazy and choose walking!
3. Let's avoid alcohol
Let's limit alcohol intake. By doing this, we will do something good for our liver and budget.
4. Let's prepare a packed lunch
Since there is often no other option at work, too many times we walk to the vending machine with quick snacks. Why not be prepared and bring a healthy lunch and snacks?
5. Let's treat ourselves to a vacation
Every now and then you need to be able to take a day or a week just for yourself, away from e-mail and other daily obligations that bring stress and fatigue to life.

6. Let's avoid negativity
Both in real life and on the Internet, we come into contact with negative posts, people and comments all too quickly. Let's avoid them, delete them and not deal with them. We also break toxic friendships that do not bring anything good into our lives.
7. Let's be active
If we don't like sports, let's go for a walk or choose any other physical activity or hobby. If nothing else, let's clean up the apartment thoroughly, and we'll feel a lot better.
8. Let's read
Reading stimulates the brain, clears the mind and brightens many an hour when it's dark and cold outside.
