Often, the hardest thing about getting in the habit of setting and working toward fitness goals isn’t the workout burn or the finding the motivation. Instead, once you’ve locked in those habits, it’s easy to fall into the trap of making decisions about your health that are unhealthy and obsessive, like making further weight loss, diet, or “gains” goals. These can start to take a toll on mental health. So here’s how to keep self-acceptance in mind when building your habits.

It’s important to remember that fitness is certainly worthwhile, but only to the point that it makes you happy and feel good in your body. In making workout plans, try to also plan rest and a little indulgence into your week. Everything is best in moderation. Yes, that means rich foods and binge-watching TV–but it also means pushing yourself in the gym and sticking to a specific diet. Finding the balance between health and happiness means giving yourself permission to be lazy sometimes.

It’s okay to set yourself fitness goals, but try to be wary of how you do so. At the beginning of your journey, it’s tempting to go all-in and begin an intense regimen of diet and exercise. Not only can that lead to burnout fairly quickly, it’s also a recipe for shame when you break that regimen or don’t reach your goals as quickly as expected. Rather than starting off too intensely, try instead to find a routine that you can keep up sustainably which includes enjoyment and mental health safeguards.

It’s also important to not set too high of expectations; instead, try to see each day that you stick to your routine as a victory and let each new day be an opportunity to feel your best, regardless of how that may look to others.

While physical fitness is certainly an element of a healthy lifestyle, genuinely feeling good and treating your body right sometimes means prioritizing even more basic wellness. In our busy world with sometimes-inaccurate images of “health” bombarding us through advertisements, there are certain important health habits and self-care we might forget or not realize are important. Here are three health habits that aren’t physical activity.

Getting Enough Sleep

Given that our culture celebrates business and “hustle”, sleeping enough is often not only overlooked but sometimes even denigrated. However, lack of sleep has been associated with stress, weight fluctuation, and lowered immune system effectiveness. If you feel sick or tired a lot of the time—you probably need to put down the weights and just go to bed earlier.

Drinking Enough Water

Hydration is super important and with the popularity of reusable water bottles, it’s become a little easier to maintain. However, dehydration is still pretty common and it can lead to headaches and energy loss. Invest in a water bottle, and make sure to drink at least one bottle’s worth of water a day.

Meditation

Meditation has been shown to lower stress and anxiety. It’s nearly impossible to avoid stress in today’s world, but stress can worsen heart health, cause weight fluctuation, headaches, and more. Practicing stress-lowering techniques can help you not just mentally, but physically as well.

There are few things more enjoyable than a foot massage, whether you’re on your feet at work all day or just want to relax after a strenuous workout. If you can’t make it to the spa or don’t have anyone around you willing to volunteer, it’s perfectly possible to relieve tension with a self-massage. Light a candle and turn on some calming music, find a comfortable place and unwind with a self-foot massage fit for royalty.

Find Your Oil

Any skin-safe oil will do; you can try oils like coconut, olive, or almond to start. Just be sure not to use anything you may have any allergy to. If you prefer not to use oil, foot cream or lotion will do. You just may need to add more from time to time. You may also want to wash your feet beforehand to avoid getting your hands dirty.

How to Massage

Begin by pouring a small amount of oil (about a teaspoon) into your hand. First, apply the oil in an upward motion along the length of the calf and then onto your foot. Use your thumbs to gently knead your calf from your ankle to your knee. Then use your thumbs to draw circles around your ankle and continue downward toward your heel. You can use your knuckles or the palm of your hand to massage the sole of the foot, spending a little extra time on any knots you may find. Finish up by gently massaging your toes one at a time before moving to the other foot.

Self-care is so much more than putting on a face mask and taking a bubble bath in your free night. There are many things you can do to focus on yourself and some of the most efficient ones are actually small habits you can change in your daily life. Here are three of them. 

Phone-Free Walks 

It’s amazing how walks without a phone can make you notice the world around you. Instead of listening to music or a podcast, you can take this time to disconnect and notice the weather, the fresh air, and the world around you. 

Tech-Free Mornings 

When it comes to disconnecting, it’s very important to allow yourself some offline time when you first wake up. The best way to do it is to leave your phone out of the bedroom and just don’t rush to it before you’ve completed your morning routine. 

5-Minute Tidying Sessions 

You don’t need marathon cleaning days if you keep your home tidy on a daily basis. Not only this will leave you with more free time over weekends, but it will also keep your head clear and yourself less anxious every day. You only need five minutes once or twice per day to make a difference and feel accomplished.

Do you really not have enough time for self-care, fitness, and preparing healthy food or are your priorities just wrong? Here are our best tips for those who’d like to make more time to do something good for their future self.

Wear Comfortable Clothes

Investing in workout equipment is a great way to stay motivated and to find time to work out even when you don’t think you have it. Simply thinking about the new chance to wear your beautiful new set of leggings and exercise top may bump the workout above some other things on your priority list, helping you stay fit and healthy.

Take Small Steps

This is crucial when you’re just starting. If you want to spend two hours every day going to the gym, working out, and going back home when your schedule is already full, you’ll give up in no time. Instead, it’s better to start with small changes that you won’t even notice. Take a lunch break outside and walk around instead of sitting in front of the computer. Walk up the stairs instead of taking an elevator. These things don’t require additional time but provide a lot of benefits.

Get Up Earlier

The simplest way to get more time in your day is to wake up earlier, but in order to get the most out of your mornings, you need to go to bed earlier and get enough sleep.

Are you tired of feeling tired and sluggish throughout the day? Do you want to make the change to lead a healthier lifestyle? We have gathered five easy steps that will help you become your best self.

Get Enough Sleep

Getting a good night’s sleep is important, especially when you are working out regularly. Sleep repairs your muscles, gives you energy to workout, and balances hormones related to hunger and fullness. You should be getting between 7 to 9 hours of sleep each night.

Stay Hydrated

It’s important to make sure you are staying hydrated throughout the day, if you aren’t then you may feel sluggish and tired. When you’re tired, it’s easier to reach for unhealthy, fatty foods. Be sure to carry a water bottle with you, no matter where you are going.

Change Takes Time

Trying to change all your bad habits at the same time, will make you want the things you are trying to avoid more. For example, if you drink soda all the time, completely stopping drinking soda, won’t work. Instead, try limiting your soda intake to once a day and when you have mastered that you can try drinking soda only on the weekends.

Eat Proteins

You may be overeating because you are not consuming enough protein; protein will keep you feel full longer. It’s easy to add more protein to your diet; start in the morning by having eggs with your toast for breakfast.

Schedule Your Snacks

Scheduling a mid-afternoon snack will keep you from eating everything in sight after you get home from a long workday. Hummus and carrots or nuts make a great snack that will keep you feeling full longer.

Many prioritize work and a social life which leaves taking care of yourself in third place, an exhausting task to think about. Taking care of yourself includes eating right, working out, and learning about how to better your well being. If you’re lacking in putting attention to this area in life, you’re not alone. But if you make time for yourself, you’ll be helping all of the other important areas of your life improve.

Save Money

How many times have you considered or actually purchased those “detox teas” or other fitness fads? How much have you spent on a dressing-covered salad? The money you save from removing band-aid trends and overpriced “healthy” meals will make your wallet happy. You can use that money towards a gym membership, personal training, or a trip to a new country.

Feel Energetic

If you swap out convenient burgers and pizza for your main meals with meal-prepped eggs, tuna, chicken breast, and vitamin enriched salads, you’ll have the energy to perform at work and in your social life.

Save Your Relationships

Working out is shown to relieve stress and other negative emotions. Pissed off by a coworker? Missed the bus and it ruined your day? It’s better to relieve stress on weights and machines than people you love or work with.

Improved Physical Health

It’s proven that working out regularly reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease, cancer, arthritis, and other diseases. Get that blood flowing, that oxygen in your lungs, and you’ll stave off that trip to the doctor.
