The phenomenon of a healthy lifestyle is analyzed in terms of such methodological approaches as systemic, synergetic, personality-centered, hermeneutic and holistic ones. The pedagogical principles of harmony with nature, humanization and democratization, complexity and interdisciplinary integration, succession and continuity are defined. A conceptual idea of a healthy lifestyle is formulated including formation of cultural, social and economic reasons to preserve and strengthen the health of Ukrainians, consolidation of the efforts of teachers to develop a long-term educational technology for forming a healthy lifestyle, which will unite all periods of human life (pre-school, school, student, mature age), improvement of the health of people in the Ukrainian society, maintenance of optimum ability to work, improvement of the quality of life for healthy living and educating healthy children. The basic mechanisms of implementation of the conceptual idea are proposed.
