A Healthy New Year

A Healthy New Year is all we could ask for and more. It is the best time to reassess what is most important to you. Focusing on healthy habits instead of a New Year’s resolution may work better for you. Choose a specific word for the new year like the word “Health”. From there you can focus on creating the best version of your life. And the best way to do that is to focus on healthy habits. This blog will show you the best way to build healthy habits and lifestyle for a successful 2020.

Create a Plan
As a parent and spouse, sometimes it feels like you are running 100 miles an hour and 100 different directions at the same time. On a Sunday, try sitting down with your family and review a plan for the week so everyone is on the same page with a goal. Then narrow it down and find ways to improve adding self care into the plan weekly.

Meal Plan
Staying on top of a weekly meal plan can ultimately relieve you from many chores during the week. Meal planning is notorious for being a lifesaver on a few different levels. First, it will help you feel better if you eat cleaner and incorporate more veggies in your diet. Lastly, you can involve the children in meal preparation and enjoy more bonding time at home. You can even go to the local market or farm to pick fresh produce and products.

Read More Often
When children begin learning to read, they may be a little unsure of themselves at first. The most amazing part of focusing on your little reader is sitting with him or her and helping them sound it out while praising them. It will help them develop a love for books and reading time with you. Trips to the library are always fun as they have incorporated so many different activities for children.

Volunteer
Volunteering can help you meet some incredible people, advance your career, learn new skills and become a happier person. Like the infamous quote from Winston Churchill: “You make a living by what you get, You make a life by what you give”
