Health = Habits Weekly Wisdom

An inspirational quote in black letters on a white background surrounded by tiny red and pink hearts.

 Are you creating habits toward your health?

 Up until 4 years ago, I really was not aware of the concept of habits. I was doing a few here and there but nothing consistent. I had read a couple books and listened to a few podcasts and "creating habits and habit stacking" was an underlying theme. As I learned more, it started to just make sense. 

I have this mantra of "setting yourself up for success" with habits. Things you can doing daily to ensure you are living your most healthy life. What do I mean by healthy?  Sleep, nutrition, emotional/mental, physical activity, connection, and financial health. Taking into consideration all these bullet items and doing things daily to make sure I am taking care of my areas of health. 

Sleep:  creating a sleep routine (bedtime, wakeup time)
Nutrition:  meal planning/prep, packing my lunch, getting breakfast ready for the morning
Emotional/Mental Health:  breath work, journaling, prayer
Physical activity:  scheduling daily walks and a strength training routine
Connection:  scheduling time with family and friends, writing letters, phone calls
Financial:  saving for my future, limiting wasteful spending, less stuff/more life

Small little daily habits can lead to big things when it comes to your health. Just by me packing my lunch and prepping my breakfast the night before has forever changed my morning from hectic to happy. Once that stuck, it just helped me create more habit stacking to bring that much more joy to my life.

I challenge you to make a choice to start one habit for your health today and let the building begin.
