Nobody wants to be tired and run down. And most of us would love to have the energy, stamina, and strength to keep up with the kids! Of course, we’re all busy people. That doesn’t mean you can’t achieve that, though. You simply have to prioritize your health over some of the other things you do each day. Sounds selfish?
It’s not selfish if it means you’re fit and healthy. Your kids want to play with you. You need the stamina to do that. Your boss wants you to work every day and maintaining good productivity. You can’t do that if you’re at home in bed with an illness. And your partner relies on you to do your fair share of the cooking, cleaning and maintaining the house. If you’re not well, everything falls to them. These are just some of the reasons why it’s not at all selfish to prioritize you!
Automate Your Appointments And Prescription Refills
One way to make sure you always have the medicines you need and the health checkups you should be getting is to automate them. Use your phone or computer to set alarms and reminders about appointments. Most scheduling or calendar apps allow you to recur those reminders. You should see your dentist every six months. You might see your doctor every year.
Prescriptions can also be automated in this way. Drugs like beta-blockers, asthma medication, and hormone replacement are required for the long term. You might be prescribed two months of this. You can use online stores like eDrugSearch to find and order your refills. It’s quick, simple, and can be mostly automated too.
