As we end 2023, I’d like to talk to you today about what I like to call the Health First Triangle. Not the Bermuda Triangle which has a whole sort of negative connotations behind it.
A regular triangle has 3 equal sides. Equal in length means equal importance
Side 1: Physical Health
Rest during the day and at night when you are asleep.
-Try and keep the same hours going to bed at roughly the same time and getting up at roughly the same time.
- It’s said average adult requires between 7 - 9 hours of sleep a night.
-Add a nap or 2 during the day 10min to help you recoup your energy
Physical Activity
-Staying active means consciously making decisions that will help you
Walk
Weight-bearing exercises, simply lifting groceries or a full bottle or package of flour if you don’t have free weights
Squats
Stretching
Yoga - which will also help with all 3 sides of the triangle
Proper Nutrition & Hydration - eat and drink in moderation
Side 2: Mental or Emotional Health
-Spending time, quality time with family and friends
Being present in conversations
-Meditation and Reflection (Yoga) - Spend time alone with your thoughts
-Active Reading
-Putting our cellphones away when we are interacting with people. Talk - listen
We have 2 ears and 1 mouth. Listen more!
Side 3 - Financial Health
-Create a budget
-Maintain savings
-Manage debt: There’s good debt and bad debt
Good debt is a mortgage, you pay it down gradually so you can fully own your real estate
Bad debt is credit cards and short term loans
Seek advice from qualified financial express and mortgage professionals. Ask questions!!
Dr. Sherry Cooper - Dominion Lending Centres
Shaun Hildebrand - President of Urbanation (during the recording I said "vice-president")
Benjamin Tal - Managing Director & Executive Chief Economist at CIBC
Have a great end to the year 2023 and an even better start to 2024!
