B.E.D

Better Every Day (B.E.D)


I know so many friends that put off their health because they are just so busy with family, work, and other commitments. We know there are important things we need to address but because of time and often energy we put them off.  We all know what we should do, we just need to start doing it!

A key step towards any goal is visualization and planning.  A terrific easy planning step is to simply write your goals down.  Writing it down brings it to life makes it real. When you visualize you see yourself already accomplishing your goal, look at pictures and people that have accomplished what you want to accomplish draw inspiration from them. If they can do it so can you. 

Our health is too important to put off any longer. Especially, as we age and our bodies have longer recovery times. Start today and just make the commitment to yourself that you will get healthy. Try not overwhelm yourself with aggressive exercise routines or restrictive eating plans. 

The key is to begin. Look for easy ways to incrementally improve your health daily.  Look to add things instead of taking away.  Adding some veggies instead of a taking away ice cream.  Think of creative things you can do to eat better, perhaps simply add a vitamin.  Look for the big offenders in your daily eating is it fatty foods, is it soda, pizza, or sweets and look to make incremental cuts. 

The more good things you add to your nutrition the less space there is for the unhealthy stuff. 

Maybe walking instead of the elevator or car. Think of an exercise you enjoy and get back to it.  Stretching or jumping jacks is an easy way to begin.  One of my favorite things to do is the exercise band it's easy, cheap, and convenient.  You can carry it with you wherever you go and always get a few reps of exercise that will build muscle tone and elevate your heart rate. The exercise band is a fantastic way to start strengthening your body today. 

Simply taking small steps to get Better Every Day including a good nights sleep will have you living a long healthy life. 

To Your Health,
