What's your daily routine?

Every decision you make in a day adds a little bit of stress to your life. That’s why creating consistent routines can improve both your mental and physical health.

Having a routine doesn’t mean your life has to be boring and repetitive. Instead, just completing a few tasks at the same time each day – like a morning cup of coffee, walking a pet, or journaling – can help give you a sense of stability.

The health benefits of having an established routine are far-reaching. Here are a few of those benefits:

1. Lower levels of stress and anxiety. Having a routine eliminates the stress that comes from unpredictability. Routines give you more control, which helps alleviate feelings of anxiety.

2. Better sleep. A daily routine will likely translate into a consistent sleep schedule, an important part of getting quality sleep and feeling energized and refreshed.

3. Healthier habits. Incorporating healthy living tips into your life is much easier when you plan ahead and make time for them. This includes exercising, eating healthy meals, and mental health practices.

4. Improved productivity. Routines get you into a rhythm of getting things done rather than switching from task to task and having to make last-minute decisions.
