We all know that getting healthy takes time and commitment,
but what can you do right now that will jump start your journey? Here are 5
simple things that you can start incorporating into your daily routine to help
with your goals:
1.
Drink your water!
Whether you’re replacing a sugary
drink or just increasing your intake, water has so many benefits. From staving
off hunger to helping digestion to clearing up a foggy brain. As a general
rule, aim for 8 glasses a day.
2.
Park as far away as you can.
Heading to the mall? Have to work? Wherever
you go this weekend, park as far as you can from your destination. Adding extra
steps through the day helps you become more active and adds to your overall
health.
3.
Plan your meals.
This one is a bit harder than the
rest but probably one of the best things you can do. It makes grocery store shopping easier, it helps
avoid unhealthy grab and go meals and
4.
Aim for 5 servings of veggies
Stop trying to eliminate bad foods
and focus on adding some good stuff, which could leave less room for the bad! Toss
some veggies in your eggs in the morning, have a salad or a side of vegetables with
your lunch and fill ½ your plate at dinner with veggies! Done!
5.
Pamper yourself
This could quite possibly the
hardest for you. When was the last time you treated yourself to something? Buy
yourself flowers, get a manicure, take some time to read a book. When we
nurture ourselves, we create a sense of self-worth. The foundation of health
and wellness begins with knowing the importance of taking care of ourselves.
