It's that time of year where some of us can get a little blue. For me, I don't get outside as much, I feel like I'm developing a layer of personal insulation (if you know what I mean) and frankly I need something to look forward to.
Now is a good time to take a step back and revaluate a few things in your and my life.
1. Plan a warm vacation - this will guarantee winter workouts and positive daydreaming
2. Revamp the diet - Are we truly eating the colors of the rainbow and non-processed foods? I'm mean come on we all know that stuff is BAD.
3. Stay active - Make the heart pump darn it! Ask yourself how many times last week did I get my heart rate up? If the answer was under four it's not enough!
4. Factor in "me" time - Read a book, take a restorative yoga class, do art or just chill.
5. Look at your personal goals for the year and make sure they are realistic and obtainable - it is so satisfying to cross things off
