City Living: How to Stay Healthy in the Crowd

By Genevieve Cunningham

Living in the Metroplex comes with its advantages. In Addison, you can both live in a quality neighborhood and have easy access to everything you could need. This kind of city life is the best life. But let's be real: Living in the city has its downside too. And sometimes these downsides can affect your health. If you love living in the city, but you'd like to protect your health, take a look at these problems and solutions for healthy city living.

The Problem: Traffic

Traffic is the worst! We sit for hours, suffer back and neck pain in the car, opt for convenience foods while we wait, and feel like we're never getting anywhere. Though we learn how to deal with the ramifications of traffic, we sometimes need help to stay healthy through the waiting, sitting, and constant traffic life.

The Problem: Lack of Time

When we're short on time, we make poor decisions more often. We swing through the drive-thru. We grab a soda to stay awake. We skip exercise because there's no time. If you don't have time to stay healthy, you soon won't have the time (or energy or health!) for anything else either.

The Problem: Cost of Living

City life is expensive. Staying healthy in the city can feel impossible because of this. Healthy food? Doctor visits? How can you afford it?! The good news is that there are options out there, as long as you know how to be creative and where to look. 

Solutions

  • Schedules - If you're short on time, schedules are so important. A schedule can help you leave for work on time, thus avoiding traffic. It can help you fit in appointments and gym time and appointments with professionals. Sometimes a schedule -- no matter how much we fight it -- is the best thing for us. So don't be afraid to give it a try.

  • Movement - The more you move, the better you're going to feel. Schedule some exercise. Walk more. Stretch every day. Movement is so important for staying healthy and pain-free, and adding more to your life is a step in the right direction.

  • Chiropractic care - All of these problems -- rushing around, sitting in traffic, etc. -- can lead to pain. And to deal with pain and stay healthy, it's a good idea to get chiropractic care. Regular care can help reduce pain, improve mobility, boost the immune system, and make you healthier and more comfortable overall. And living a healthier life is beneficial no matter where you live! If you're looking for a long-term solution, starting with chiropractic care is the perfect option.
