To fully enjoy the Lunar New Year festivities, a balance is needed between savoring delicious food and taking good care of one's health.

Balancing nutrition and happiness

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated, which promotes healthy digestion, maintains energy levels, and also helps avoid overeating.

Before attending a party, consider having a quick and nutritious meal to avoid overeating foods that are out of control.

Snack wisely. Choose baked goods instead of fried foods, fruits and nuts, and be mindful of sweets.

Prioritize physical activity.

• Make time for exercise, even if you're busy.
• Combine this with outdoor activities for the whole family.
• Take advantage of a few short workouts throughout the day, even just 10 minutes, to help you stay active.

Manage stress and maintain a positive mindset.

Even if you're very busy, take time to relax. Practice deep breathing, mindfulness, and meditation to reduce stress and support your mental health.

Avoid setting overly high standards for yourself. Don't be a perfectionist; accept your flaws and enjoy life.

Prioritize sleep.

Even with a disrupted sleep schedule, make sure you get enough sleep, 7-9 hours each night, to keep your body and mind refreshed.
