All of us want to have a good quality of life, but there are times when it seems to get complicated and that things go wrong against us. In reality, even when there are adverse circumstances, you are the one most responsible for being able to live better or worse. In the same way, people can have different ideas of what it means to have a good quality of life.

There are some factors that are quite universal in terms of happiness and life satisfaction in people. To have a good quality of life, it is worth knowing how to deal with stress and adversity . The good thing about all this is that once you know it you can decide without changing your quality of life or not, the decision is in your hands! That’s how…

Focus on relationships that affirm you as a person

The relationships you have define you in many ways. You can become more stressed when you spend time with people who drain you or rob you of energy. On the other hand, when you have a supportive social circle , you can enjoy a greater capacity to recover from stress, you will have more happiness and higher levels of well-being

Sleep enough

To have good physical and mental health, you should not skimp on rest and hours of sleep. If you do not get enough sleep or when your other basic physical needs are not met, you will be more reactive to stress and your quality of life will be lowered. Personal care is a must for good health in all aspects … But ironically, it is the first thing to do when you have stress or when you are too busy, essential personal care is left in the background!

In this sense, it is essential that you take care of yourself both physically and emotionally to guarantee a good quality of life … and you should start by resting with a good night’s sleep!

Exercise to enjoy

If you don’t enjoy exercise, then it won’t be helping you improve your quality of life. Exercise itself has many benefits that go beyond weight or physical appearance … although most people start exercising to look better. It is a stress reliever in both the short and long term. Also, if the exercise you do is to feel good emotionally, much better. Therefore, it is necessary that the one you do is enjoyable, that is, that it be an activity that you like and that you enjoy doing such as riding a bicycle, running, going to directed classes … etc.

You have to like your work

If there is something that can really deepen your quality of life, it is that you wake up every day without wanting to go to work. You may not like what you do or you cannot put up with your boss … But in any case, you need to find a way to earn a living that fills you up internally, and also allows you to live well! If you can’t switch to another job due to whatever circumstances, then you may need to find other ways to enjoy yourself outside of your job, such as spending time on perks and other activities that allow you to feel like what. you do, it’s really worth it.

Be careful what drains you energy

We all have things in life that can drain our energy … and many times, without realizing it. Maybe you tolerate those things that can be mild or moderate but accumulate too much stress that they reduce your quality of life. If you find that you have too many things in your life that drain your energy, then it will make you more vulnerable if you do nothing to remedy it. You may have gotten “used” to those factors that stress you out or are so busy in your life that improving circumstances is not a priority for you. The best decision you can make is to be aware of what takes your energy and change it! Remember to do things that you like to do!
