3 Healthy Habits to Build a Better You

It takes about 4-5 weeks of repetitive action for most things to become a habit. That means that if you put conscious effort in to forming 3 fitness habits every 4-5 weeks, by the end of the year you'll have 30-40 new healthy habits. That's A LOT of healthy habits banked towards becoming your best self!
I'm not talking all encompassing, change-the-world-in-one-day healthy habits. I'm talking small, super doable habits that won't take too much out of your day. By themselves they seem small. But together, they amount to a whole new, beautiful and healthy you.
Healthy Habit 1: Go for a 20 minute walk after I have my morning coffee but before I have breakfast.
Why this habit? Starting your day off with light exercise gets your blood flowing, boosts your heart rate and helps to put a healthy spin on the rest of your day.
How many times do you come home at the end of the day thinking "holy crap, finally I get a moment to myself"? It's good to give yourself a few minutes in the morning to clear your head and enjoy some quiet time that revolves around you. You have work, responsibilities, a daily routine that requires attention and energy. Take 20 minutes to get outside, breath in the fresh air and move your muscles. It's only 20 minutes, but it's YOUR 20 minutes.
