We all know making changes to how we live is easier said than done.
Pick 1 change and make it a SMART goal.
Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time based.
Instead of I'm going to eat better.
I'm going to add 1 serving of vegetables to dinner three times a week.
Give it a Try

Muggy morning run... Honoring my commitment to self to be active. What can you do today to be more active? Find a way to incorporate exercise snacks! Short 10 -15 min bursts of activity during your day can have an impact.

Small steps matter... I challenge you to add in body weight training. Muscle mass matters and focusing on cardio exercise only is a disservice to your body. Strength and balance matter. 10 squats and wall or counter pushups is my challenge to you. Three times a week this month.

Commitment... To yourself not anyone else. What is it that you can do today to make your tomorrow better? Better health, better mindset, better situation. The world feels out of control. Commit to yourself for you. Today I went for my run to honor that commitment

STRESS.patients will claim they don't have stress, some admit to using substances to soothe themselves. The reality is everyone experiences stress both positive (eustress) and negative (distress). The key is channeling good stress to get into a flow state and working through or coping with distress.

Many people today are frightened, frustrated and stressed. As your stress levels rise, focusing on self-care is important to keep things in balance.
Self care includes so many things…. Drinking water, time in nature, creating things, time with your circle
What are you doing for self care this week?

Morning motivation... It's not about wanting to do it at 430 in the morning, it's about knowing me later today, next week, next month will be glad I did it. Cold but dry little run today. Move your body, it helps your mind, body and soul.
