1. Practice Breathing & Meditation Techniques at least 10 minutes a day. Try using Youtube Videos, join online yoga classes, or simply plan some time for yourself everyday to focus on your inner thoughts.
2. Turn off the TV, Tablet,Phone, etc.- Do yourself a favor and unplug from all of your devices everyday for at least 30-60 minutes. Nowadays there is too much tech noise all around us. Take some time away from your devices and go for a walk outside and reconnect with nature.
3. Commit to Being Active Everyday- Set goals for yourself every week and try and reach them. For example, try going for a walk for 15 minutes everyday, or riding your indoor bike 30 minutes for 3 times a week. Be specific. This helps you organize your thoughts and focus more on the present moment.
4. Plan Local Excursions with Family- Try and get out of the house with your family a couple times a month. Plan some fun hikes, walks, or local road trips. Catch up with your family and do something everyone in the family would enjoy. Experience everything your local community has to offer.
5. Create a Supportive Team Around You- Make sure your surround yourself with positive and motivating people. With all the negative things happening in the world right now, there is no room in your life for people who don’t support your healthy lifestyle. Join online fitness communities on Facebook, listen to uplifting Podcasts, or start a community forum with like- minded individuals. Make sure you distance yourself from the naysayers out there.
