Abstract
The article deals with the scenarios and practices of healthy lifestyles in modern urban space, presents the results of the author's sociological study conducted to identify the opinions of citizens (on the example of Kazan, Republic of Tatarstan) about the most common practices of healthy lifestyles in urban space.
The results of the empirical study indicate the relevance of contradictions in the understanding of the main elements and principles of a healthy lifestyle and real practices for maintaining an active lifestyle and health promotion in the urban space by urban residents. Having a sufficiently capacious theoretical base concerning healthy lifestyle and understanding its positive effect, urban residents, nevertheless, do not implement this knowledge to the full extent in practice. The determining factors of this phenomenon are the lack of free time, finances and personal motivation.
