Q: How Can I Improve Myself This Month?

A: Make a point to get 7-8 hours of sleep every night.
Getting the proper amount of sleep every night can improve your health more than you might think. Not only can help you feel well-rested but it can also help you reduce stress and cut down on weight gain.

A: Make time for yourself to decompress each day.

Whether it’s 30 minute or 2 hours, you can do wonders for your stress level, just by simply taking the time to relax. That can mean different things for different people. Your relaxation time may mean reading a book, doing some yoga, going for a run, taking a hike, or swimming laps. Whatever your relaxation time may look like, there are so many healthy options and you should take time to do this regularly.

A: Eat out less, make your own meals more.

You may resort to going to your nearest fast food establishment for a quick meal because it’s convenient but just taking an hour every Sunday to prep your meals for the weak can do wonders for your diet! If you are trying to lose weight this year, this month could be THAT MONTH where you pull ahead. Just taking a little extra time to prep your meals may be the trick you need.
