In the spirit of turning 24, I wanted to do #17 on my list of “24 things to take the edge off of of 24” which just happens to be, “make more lists.”
I’m trying to incorporate healthy habits into my life, so I made a list of healthy habits that I need to accomplish every day. Yes, EVERY DAY.
You are welcome to check them off with me!
- Work out for 30 minutes – I am a HUGE fan of Kayla Itsines and I am addicted to her BBG program right now.
- Eat breakfast, lunch and dinner – skipping meals is just not good for you, and I find it makes me binge on another meal!
- Walk at least 6,000 steps – ok if I didn’t work full time at a desk job, this would be doubled, but right now I have been clocking in at about 9,000 steps per day on my FitBit! Are you keeping up?
- Pray meaningfully – if you aren’t religious, you should meditate. Religious or not it helps your mind reset, and take a break from thinking about the usual thoughts.
- Take your probiotics – these saved my life. I am NO LONGER lactose intolerant because of these. They also replace yogurt in my diet since I cannot even stomach the smell of it.
- Laugh with a friend – I put this here to remind myself to go make new friends or catch up with old ones. Good relationships can make you happier overall.
- Floss – my dad is a dentist, and has told me to do this all of my life, but I still fail to do so. It keeps you from getting cavities, gives you fresher breath, and prevents gingivitis (meaning your teeth will fall out when you are old).
- Moisturize – Currently I am using Nani Naturals, since I recently found out that the lotion I was putting on every day HAD CANCER CAUSING INGREDIENTS.
- Write down something good – Puts in perspective the great things that are happening in life, and will probably be useful on a rainy day.
xx always,
