James Clear reminds us: lasting change doesn’t come from massive overhauls. It’s the small, consistent habits that make the biggest impact.

His Four Laws of Behavior Change give you the roadmap:
Make it obvious
Make it attractive
Make it easy
Make it satisfying

Design your environment to work for you, not against you.

Wishing a happy, healthy, and love-filled Mother’s Day to all the remarkable women who mother in countless ways.

As a mom of three and someone who’s walked alongside so many women through their health journeys, I’ve come to appreciate just how many ways there are to be a mother.

To the moms by birth and by choice, the stepmoms, grandmothers, godmothers, and chosen moms—
To those navigating infertility, loss, or longing—
To the caregivers, nurturers, and women who hold others with love and strength—

We see you. We honor you. We celebrate you. Your presence is powerful. Your care is essential.

From my own journey in both medicine and motherhood, I know this truth: wellness begins with love—especially the kind we give to others and to ourselves.

I’m celebrating you today—for all that you are and all that you give, even when it goes unseen

With love,
Dr. Jackcy Jacob

Exercise has been linked to different neurotransmitters in the brain that bring a sense of enjoyment, and physiologically, it can change our body. Exercise has a direct benefit on our mental health.

Looking to boost your mood? You may want to go for a walk. A psychologist provides insight on a study showing the benefits of taking more steps for your mental health.
