Awareness of Physiological Signals

Developing awareness of one’s own physiological signals is crucial for better health management. Many people rely heavily on technology to monitor their health, which can lead to a diminished sense of their natural bodily cues. For instance, recognizing when you're genuinely hungry or thirsty can be overshadowed by constant app notifications. By minimizing external distractions during workouts or daily life, individuals can become more attuned to how their bodies respond to various stimuli, allowing for informed choices about nutrition and exercise.
