People who have ever been on any of our wellness programmes quickly learn that their typical daily routine is assessed before we customise a programme to meet their needs. This helps us to take a realistic approach to ensure that their needs are met.
To achieve a quality life, it is essential to have knowledge and understanding of what you do to bring balance and stability to you. This enhances productivity and reduces stress and anxiety.
Routines bring structure to you and give you an expectation of yourself, providing a sense of control, reducing anxiety especially around decision making and creating a calming effect. In this regard your overall mental health gets a boost.
With a routine, you can get intentional about your self care. You are able to consistently exercise, eat healthy, have a dedicated "me time", even improve your sleep patterns with consistent sleep and wake times. Burnouts are prevented in effect, as work and personal times are well balanced.
You get to grow personally and ultimately improve your relationships with others. Staying committed to your routine creates discipline and inches you towards your short-term and long-term goals everyday. You are also able to determine what your personal interests are and pursue them. As you discover and improve yourself, you identify who your people are. You tend to spend more time with family, friends and partners, particularly those with similar interests as yourself. A safe space for emotional and mental support is then created.

Self development owing to your routine leads to proper planning, budgeting and overall good financial practices for a healthy financial life.
Routines should not be seen as rigid, inflexible practices. Truth is that routines can be adaptible and flexible. With a solid foundation, it is easier to adapt when changes arise. You are prepared for unexpected events as having a routine instills in you a sense of preparedness and urgency.
Your quality of life is improved across all facets, including long-term health benefits owing to consistency in activities like sleep, exercise and nutrition. Your cognitive health is also not spared as mental and social interactions enhance cognitive function.
Always bear in mind that having a routine is a great tool for freedom and better health.
