Measures to promote a healthy lifestyle (HL) can contribute to the best way out of the crisis. However, systematic and holistic approaches to preserving, restoring, and forming an individual’s HL in the conditions of a full-scale military invasion of the territory of Ukraine have not been developed yet.
