Lifestyles are based on the interaction between living conditions and individual behavior patterns that are determined by sociocultural factors and personal characteristics. This study aims to analyze the dimensions associated with a healthy lifestyle and their relationship with demographic variables during the confinement as a result of COVID-19 in the Mexican population. A quantitative design with a descriptive and comparative scope was used, in which 313 residents of Mexico, aged 18 to 63 years, participated. The population was selected through convenience sampling. The instrument used contained a section for demographic data, the Lifestyle Profile Questionnaire and Health Promoter II (PEPS II), which obtained a Cronbach alpha of .934. Significant differences were found between the demographic variables of gender, alcohol and cigarette consumption, as well as a health-promoting lifestyle profile. Low scores were observed in the dimension of physical activity and stress in women, while in men in the dimension of responsibility in health and stress management. The dimensions of physical activity and stress were the most affected in the study, showing the least significant areas for Mexicans. Based on the results, a model of psychosocial intervention is proposed to promote a change of attitude towards healthier lifestyles.
