Do you need to create healthier habits? Of course, you do, so do I, because we're all human!
Some things I do to stay my healthiest:
1. I rarely drink my calories. Meaning I don't drink sugary coffee, or sugary soda. I only drink soda sweetened with Stevia. My favorite is Zevia brand soda. If you can't do black coffee, I recommend Sweet Leaf's Sweet Drop Caramel sweetener. It's a liquid, you can get it on Amazon and it's amazing!
2. I eat very little ultra-processed food. Do I eat granola bars from time to time or other packaged snacks? Yes, but for the most part, I try to eat whole foods. A banana can be eaten on the run, so can an apple, etc.
3. Make your sleep a priority. Your body heals when it's at rest. This keeps your immune system healthy. If you think you "don't have time" for sleep, try to reframe that as "Getting enough sleep helps me safe time, since I won't get sick."
4. Move your body in a way you like. Maybe that's turning on a playlist and dancing around the house, or walking around your driveway, or just adding movement to your day. There is no "one best" exercise. The best one for you is the one you'll want to do on a regular basis (or at least not dread).
5. Pencil in some time for yourself to relax. I know, you're busy, I get it, we're all busy...and, there are 1,440 minutes in the day. You can spend one minute, that's 60 seconds, taking a few deep breaths in and out, to help reduce stress. Even better, if you want some free meditations of mine, and they're all under or around 5 minutes, you can check them out on Insight Timer (they have a free app). My favorite one is
