Hi lovelies,

We all know and understand that it is important to live a healthy lifestyle. And, we all know and understand that part of this including eating right and exercising. However, not everyone fully appreciates or understands all of the areas that you need to look after in order to stay and look after yourself properly. 

Let’s have a look below at four areas of your health that you should never ignore: 

The Dentist
This is certainly one that for some, is something they will avoid until it is absolutely necessary. Which usually includes them making countless phones calls to try and find a dentist that will see them at short notice, on an emergency basis because they haven’t been in forever and aren’t registered. Needing to have an emergency appointment can be quite costly. As well as making sure you brush your teeth twice a day with the right technique, it is essential for you to stay on top of your dental health and visit a dentist every 12 months. Not only will it mean you don’t have to scramble around if you need an emergency appointment but it also helps you to prevent the need for them. 

The Opticians 
This is another that gets forgotten about and get left until there is a problem. Even if you don’t feel as though your vision has changed it’s best to keep an eye on it. You should see an optician at least every two years to ensure your eyes are healthy and that you don’t require glasses. With the way that technology is nowadays, it’s even possible to order your prescription glasses online which opens you up to a wide variety of options compared to instore alone. 

Your Hearing 
People tend to not think about their hearing until it has got to the point where others are pointing it out. However, this should be an area of focus to ensure you are healthy. Hearing loss & depression is linked, therefore, it is essential that you speak to a professional if at any point you notice any of the signs of hearing difficulties. 

Healthy Living 
This just couldn’t be left off the list. As well as making sure you visit the medical professionals that you need to, you also need to make sure you don’t ignore the basics. The basics are your food, drink, sleep and exercise. If you want to stay healthy and live a healthy lifestyle you need to be eating a well-balanced diet which includes variety, having at least thirty minutes of exercise a day (even if it’s just a walk at lunch), drinking the right amount of water (around 8 glasses a day), and getting between 7 and 9 hours of sleep each night.  

If you want to live the best healthy lifestyle that you can, you need to make sure you pay attention to all of these four areas. Is there anything else that you think should be included? Please share them in the comments below.
