In a recent interview on the &#8220;Say My Piece&#8221; podcast hosted by actress Lolo, Bello revealed his approach to avoiding potential addictions and maintaining a balanced lifestyle.<\/p>\n<p>Reflecting on his past, Bello recounted an experience with marijuana. &#8220;I tried weed before but it&#8217;s not my thing,&#8221; he began. &#8220;Very early on in my life \u2013 I mean not when I was a child, but it was just something that people did around me. I have a very addictive personality, so whatever I find pleasurable can turn into an addiction.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bello emphasized the importance of self-awareness in avoiding harmful habits. &#8220;You have to know yourself well. It&#8217;s very important because some people can indulge in some things and they&#8217;d get out of it, and some people would take that something and they&#8217;re not there. You have to know yourself so you don&#8217;t follow everybody,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>The singer also shared how his father&#8217;s smoking habit impacted him. &#8220;My dad used to smoke a lot of cigarettes, and as a child, he used to send me to get him cigarettes. I noticed he used to cough a lot, so I&#8217;d ask him, &#8216;Daddy, why are you coughing?&#8217; and he&#8217;d tell me, &#8216;It&#8217;s because of the cigarette. So if you don&#8217;t wanna cough like me, don&#8217;t smoke.&#8217; So very early on, he already planted something in my mind that this is something unhealthy, and I don&#8217;t want to be the kind of person who does that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bello&#8217;s commitment to wellness extends beyond avoiding harmful substances. He advocates for a holistic approach to health, encompassing physical, mental, and emotional aspects. &#8220;Growing up, I tried to be on the wellness spectrum \u2013 physical, mental, and emotional,&#8221; he explained.<\/p>\n<p>Through his experiences and reflections, Korede Bello highlights the significance of self-awareness and holistic wellness in leading a healthy lifestyle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Oratokhai Jesusemen O.
