Get Healthy Before Spring Time!

With spring time just around the corner, it's time to get healthy and think healthy! During the winter it's easy to settle in and get used to a routine, but that routine may or may not include exercising, taking multi-vitamins, or eating healthy, for example. If you've struggled with some or all of these throughout the winter time, it's never too late to get back on track and come up with a regimen that you will stick with. It may seen challenging at first, but it will definitely pay off. Here are some ideas to get you going: 

Be Careful with Your Food Selections: 

It's easier said than done, but when you're at the deli or a fast food joint, don't pick the worst thing on the menu. Eat in moderation and go for healthy foods such as fruit, vegetables, fish/proteins, foods that will feed your body with the nutrition it deserves. Over time picking healthier foods off of the menu will become a habit and your body will thank you for it!

Take Your Multi-Vitamins: 

Do you take multi-vitamins regularly? Multivitamins are excellent vitamins to take and are also important for your body every day too. Of course taking multi-vitamins does not mean eating less veggies, fruits, whole grains, proteins. You should be eating healthy and also taking daily Nature's Best multivitamin supplements simultaneously so that you will receive the best benefits from both your food and vitamins.

Try a New Fitness Class: 

If you're getting bored with your fitness routine or don't currently have one, perhaps it's time to implement one. Find out which classes your gym offers and sign up for a few. You may find a Pilates class that you love, a Zumba class that allows you to have fun and dance, or a cycling class that hits the spot. Whatever it may be, get moving! Getting fit before spring time will improve your mood, help you cope with daily stress, and allow you to develop a positive fitness routine!

Don't overwhelm yourself with must-do activities. Learn to relax and enjoy the spring time while staying healthy. It will be worth it and your spring time will positive bloom both outside and in your life!

Easy Ways to Improve Your Daily Living when a Summer Slump Hits

If you’ve caught yourself slipping into a late summer slump, don’t get discouraged! As seasons transition so do you and sometimes it’s easy to get down and out due to work, friendships, or just life in general. However, instead of being overly frustrated and wanting to throw in the towel, think of ways that will lift up your spirits in time for the fall time to arrive (or sooner)! Here are some simple tips that you might or might not have thought about. Either way, actually implementing your goals and making them a reality will certainly help you get out of a summer slump in no time at all.

Keep Tabs on Your Health

 via Green Smoothie Girl

Have you been eating horribly and not paying attention to your health? It might be easy to let yourself go during the summer months, but the truth is that your health is important. Consider eating healthier or making an appointment with your doctor to schedule a yearly physical. It never hurts to make sure that something else is not going on, such as an over or under active thyroid or other health issues.

Another aspect of health that should be paid attention to is the health of your mouth and especially your teeth! If you haven’t gotten your teeth cleaned in a while there’s nothing more that will make you smile than sparkly and clean teeth! Find a dentist that you will love, such as WDental Dallas and have them check out your teeth to make sure that everything is in working order.

Get a Planner and Stay More Organized

Are you taking on too many activities? Perhaps the reason you are feeling down or swamped is because you’ve overcommitted yourself or you’re just not good with organization. Instead of giving up, buy a trendy planner and write down all that you need to accomplish! It’s a lot easier to make a plan and implement feasible daily goals as opposed to becoming frustrated and giving up all together.

Plan Out Practical Goals & Self Love

Speaking of goals, a huge part of improving your daily living is not only planning goals, but outlining practical goals. Not every goal is feasible right away, so if you’re feeling blue due to not achieving something you worked very hard for, keep trying. Start small but still reach for the stars. Also, if you don’t fulfill a dream right away, it doesn’t mean that you’re a failure. Cut yourself some slack and love yourself more. Instead of feeding into negative thoughts, transform your thinking and think of ways to improve your life. By improving your daily living now, your fall time will be one that you’ll never forget.

She's eating healthy this year

(she: meaning me)

My New Years goal.

Being an extremist with diet Dr. Pepper

(meaning first thing in the morning you can hear a can top opening)

I am done as of 3 weeks ago.

Have already been through the 3 day headache.

I'll show you what my daughter has taught me

about eating healthy for this year.

This drink:

oogave soda

all the flavor

all the fun

None of the junk!

gluten free, caffeine free, low glycemic and vegan.

The junk in Diet drinks were getting in my way of feeling good.

*so it's bye bye*

(not saying I'll never drink one again)

pretty sure.

Oh...and lots of water

This is another drink I really do not like.

It's as if you have gone to the forest and scooped up the ground

Smells and tastes like that too.

Of course its strained.

It's hideous though.

I don't think I can drink 3 cups a day.

It's not for everyone.

Not even me.

But I will

anyway.

I'll be showing healthy foods and recipes at least once a week,

my main shopping will be from Wholefoods at Trolly square salt lake.

(tea is not from wholefoods)

LOVE THAT STORE!
