What is Hygiene?
Hygiene is the practice of maintaining personal cleanliness to support overall health. This includes daily habits like bathing, oral care, hand washing, and grooming. Good hygiene prevents the spread of infections and contributes to a person’s physical, mental, and social well-being. In addiction recovery, establishing or restoring hygiene practices is often emphasized as part of overall health and self-care routines.
Practicing good hygiene can improve self-esteem and aid in physical recovery.
