Busy days, deadlines and worries are part of life. Small, regular habits can make everyday life feel calmer. Here are some ideas you can start with today.
Habits that help
- Move every day: even a 10-minute walk outdoors is a good start.
- Breathe slowly: take a few slow breaths in through the nose and out through the mouth.
- Sleep: most adults need 7–9 hours. Go to bed at about the same time every evening.
- Plan your day: write down your tasks and choose the three most important ones.
- Take breaks: step away from the screen for a few minutes every hour.
- Spend time with people: a conversation with a friend or family member, or a shared walk.
- Keep it simple: say no to a commitment you do not have time for.
- Eat regularly: balanced meals at regular times and enough water.
Nutrients and the nervous system
A varied diet provides the vitamins and minerals the body needs. The authorised EU claims say:
- Magnesium contributes to normal psychological function and to a reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
- Thiamine, niacin, vitamin B6, vitamin B12 and biotin contribute to normal psychological function and to the normal functioning of the nervous system.
Biostile products with these nutrients: Pure Magnesium 5 (375 mg magnesium per sachet) and Vitamin B Complex + Silicium (eight B vitamins and choline).
If you feel stressed for a long time, or it affects your sleep, work or relationships, talk to your doctor or another health professional.
