This year has been challenging and difficult for everyone and what makes it even harder is that what’s going on around us is completely out of our control. But, even though things are unpredictable, there’s one thing that you can control—self care. The latest health and wellness trend is micro habits that involve making smaller more sustainable lifestyle changes. These are the ones you should try out.
Be More Active
It’s hard to get the motivation to run outside or do an intense cardio session, so instead, try and move your body in any way you can. Aim for physical active three times a week and try and not go two days without any movement.
Make Your Bed
Start your day off right by making your bed. This will give you a sense of accomplishment even if you don’t end up doing anything remarkable the rest of that day.
Stay Hydrated
Try and drink more water throughout the day to stay energized. You should aim for 90 ounces and to make it easier, carry a water bottle with you everywhere you go.
Eat Your Greens
Eating more greens will help you feel healthier and it’s as easy as adding a handful of spinach to your breakfast smoothie. Starting off with this change in the morning will encourage you to eat healthier during the day.
Stay Connected
If you feel isolated during this time, know that you’re not alone. To feel more connected, call or text a friend or family member daily.
