The holiday season can make it easy to fall off track with health goals, but you don’t have to start January feeling two steps behind. Here are ten simple, actionable tips to help you stay healthy while still enjoying the season. Follow these, and you’ll hit January three steps ahead!
1. Drink a Glass of Water First Thing in the Morning
Before reaching for coffee, start your day with a full glass of water to hydrate and kickstart your metabolism.
2. Drink a Glass of Water Before Each Meal
A simple way to stay hydrated, aid digestion, and curb overeating during those big holiday meals.
3. Take a 10-Minute Walk After Each Meal (or at Least Once a Day)
A short walk helps with digestion, reduces blood sugar spikes, and adds a little movement to your day without taking away from the festivities.
4. Join a Gym Before the New Year Rush
Getting started early means you’ll have support and a head start on your fitness goals. (Hint hint: Our Bring a Friend Week is next week! Simply respond to this email or book a free intro to secure your free week!)
5. Write Down One Thing You’re Grateful for Each Night
Practicing gratitude can improve mental health, reduce stress, and help you focus on what matters during the busy season.
6. Charge Your Phone in a Different Room
Make a “no screens in bed” rule for better sleep. Quality rest will help keep your energy high and stress levels low.
7. Eat Undistracted
Put away screens and focus on enjoying your food. Eating mindfully can help prevent overeating and improve digestion.
8. Write Notes of Gratitude to Important People in Your Life
Let loved ones know you appreciate them. It’s a healthy boost for you and brightens someone else’s day!
9. Add Protein and Vegetables to Every Meal
Balance indulgent treats with nutrient-dense foods like lean protein and veggies to help you stay fuller and fuel your body.
10. Take a Deep Breath Before Reacting to Stress
When holiday stress hits, pause and take a deep breath. Try breathing in slowly for a count of 6, hold for 2, and exhale for a count of 10. This simple exercise activates your body’s relaxation response, helping you stay calm and centered in any situation.
Try adding even just a few of these tips into your daily routine, and watch how it impacts your holiday season. Staying consistent with small, healthy habits now means you’ll be ready to hit January feeling strong, balanced, and already on track. Enjoy the season and stay well!
