¿Cómo puedes mantener un estilo de vida saludable como periodista?

The start of a healthy lifestyle is proper nutrition and effective fitness routines. If you want to maintain a healthy, positive and happy lifestyle you need to commit to better food, exercise and health choices. Stay away from processed foods and remember just because a label says all natural or healthy does not mean that it is, we as consumers have to educate ourselves on what is actually healthy for us, I have seen many people think that they were eating healthy and actually gaining weight due to processed food choices that claimed to be healthy, 68% of Americans are overweight or obese, the main reason more of us are developing diseases such as diabetes, and at younger ages. Educate yourselves now and feel healthy and fit tomorrow!

I'm not sure how you can sustain a long-term career in journalism if you're not eating for brain health. And let's face it - you have to think long term! Certainly, consuming a snickers may instill some smile in your story, and chugging a cerveza might increase your creativity, but it's not sustainable. The brain and the body will produce the best stories, the best writing, when it's fueled properly. I'm sure we all like to think we're more elegant than a hunk of metal barreling down the road, but we're not. We achieve efficiency in body function just like cute little Kia (and yes, Consumer Reports reported Kia to have one of the most efficient cars). Be efficient. Produce better work. Eat for your brain!

Every thing you consume is a chemically coded message to your body and brain. As a journalist being strategic with hydration and intentional nutrition can be a productivity tool. Intentional eating and hydrating will send chemical messages to your brain that improve focus, mood, energy and sleep.

Hydration = Life Food = Fuel.

A healthy body is one that is active. To live a healthy life, you need to be active and move your body! Have you ever noticed as a journalist that the more you sit around the more physically stiff and emotionally depressed you feel? Regular physical activity helps control weight, reduces heart disease and diabetes, it also reduces the risk of some forms of cancers, improves mood and mental health, strengthens your bones and muscles. Being active improves your ability to do daily activities, be it sports or just daily chores in older adults. Exercise increases all of our chances for living a healthy longer life and should be added to all of our lives, get up and move throughout the day if want to feel good and be healthy and fit.

Deep sleep is the biggest healer. If you are suffering from sleep disorders try the following 1. Infrared therapy: Lit a candle 🕯 before going to bed and watch it for 4 mins ad then go to bed. 2. Have deep breathing in and out

A few tips for better sleep. Limit screen time before bed. Studies show that exposure to blue light before bed can change brain patterns and make restful sleep harder to achieve. Create a restful environment by removing distractions from your bedroom to help you relax and achieve a more restful sleep. Exercise helps to make the body tired and ready to recharge in a healthy way, unlike fatigue from constant stress on the mind and body. You will sleep better and wake up feeling energized. Limit alcohol, which may seem to help you fall asleep initially but can disrupt the second half of sleep which is the most important because it interrupts REM sleep. Use lavender spray on your pillows, this is one of my favorite little rituals before bed!

Sleep is a superpower for journalists. Dehydration is a sleep thief. Hydrate: 8-10oz filtered water upon waking, sip 8-10oz of water hourly for 80-100oz. It takes 14 days to hydrate! Get off screens 1 hour before bed. Blue light stimulates the awake part of the brain. DO NOT look at your phone in the night, it resets your internal clock making falling back asleep impossible. Cool, dark and quiet = sleep. Cool: Between 64-68 degrees for restorative rest. Dark: Like really dark. Get a good eye mask or darkening shades to block light. Ambient light affects us even with our eyes closed. Quiet: Noise can wake us from a restful slumber. Use soft foam earplugs to muffle sound and improve sleep. Consistent sleep is a practice!

From my experience working in a private news agency of Pakistan normally there are no fixed time for work. You have to meet deadline of newspapers, Radio and TV channels round the clock. As a young journalist it looks attractive to work for 8 to 10 hours or even more in a day depending on breaking news. In order to keep yourself fit it is essential to have sound sleep for 8 hours every night to give rest to your body and mind. In the present era time is absolutely necessary to file or send news on TV and Radio channels and for this one has to work from home as well. It would be advisable to ensure that you get sound sleep to enable become freshen up in the morning. Take lukewarm water shower daily. Thanks Farooq Moin

How can you maintain a healthy lifestyle as a journalist? This depends on working in TV, Radio, newspaper and magazine - live coverage or on news desk. However, sleep is necessary to restore your body and mind. In a TV or Radio channel or early editions of newspaper, a reporter has to work in odd hours on which he/she has not control. It would be appropriate to have 7 to 8 hours daily sleep, light breakfast, light lunch, afternoon tea and average dinner. Avoid heavy drinking and smoking. For on the spot coverage of breaking news a journalist has to be mentally alert and well informed. For those working in the newsroom on shift duty, it is easy to ensure a sleep cycle. Rest for the body has to be ensured for desired results. Farooq Moin

If you already know that stress is inevitable, then why let it take your flow?! Why give in to whatever is being thrown at you?! Take that stress, convert it to creative energy, and DELIVER! Do not let that stress break you down - that only happens if you let it get to you! Refuse to let it in! As soon as you feel that door creeping open, slam it, bolt it and just take one step at a time to deliver what you have to deliver. Taking action step by step is the best way to convert your energy from focusing on stress to actually moving in the direction you need to go.

I can imagine being in journalism can bring about stressful stories to cover and tough deadlines to meet. Managing stress is so important to be healthy and well. Try to always find time for you and what makes you happy and fulfilled in life. Chronic stress has been linked to weight gain and many illnesses, such as heart disease, depression and stomach problems, just to name a few. Find a way to keep stress under control. Meditation, yoga and exercise has been proven to reduce stress in all of us. Some find it helpful to read a book, hike, take a walk or just sit in the sun for a few minutes a day. Whatever takes you to a happy place for a few minutes a day find it and do it!

Chronic stress can trigger the onset of clinical depression and journalists already experience enough stress. Many of the reasons for these troubling realities lie in habitual patterns of behavior that become ingrained in journalists early on. It's time to accept that being stressed out, not getting restorative rest and living off caffeine are not acceptable. Physical and mental well-being contribute to journalistic quality and productivity. Learn techniques to help manage stress because stress hormones wreak havoc on your endocrine system and contribute to inflammation of the body and brain. Meditation, breath work, prayer, walking, yoga, and hydration can all reduce levels of stress in your body. Manage Stress = Productivity & Health

A body and mind in alignment supercharges your life. Which is why continuing to learn and grow personally and professionally is essential for journalists. It creates a confidence cycle. The confidence cycle is powerful. 1. Take action on something challenging. 2. Master challenges to become more competent. 3. Increase competence to fuel a self-belief mindset. 4. A self-belief mindset builds confidence which leads to taking more action. Start small, go big, and build confidence every step of the way. Learning new skills creates a confidence cycle you can use over and over to accomplish more to be happier & healthier. Confidence is a series of behaviors that reinforce believing in yourself while motivating you to keep taking action.

Hydration can help journalists perform better. Mood, energy, sleep, a healthy weight, and staying focused all improve with hydration. Beverages like coffee, tea, soda, and alcohol can be dehydrating. If they contain added sugar or artificial ingredients, they are worse. Each dehydrating beverage consumed, requires 12-15oz water to compensate. What is dehydration? Our bodies use water for normal metabolic functions. like removing waste, regulating body temperature, and digesting food. An adult body is about 60% water, individual water needs vary depending on activity and lifestyle. Dehydration occurs when we use more water than we replace. Chronic low-level dehydration is a job risk that easily flies under the radar for journalists.

As a journalist, learning to say no, you don’t have to follow every story, and good enough is good enough are great self boundaries to help
