Halloween is just two short weeks away and that means Thanksgiving and Christmas are just around the corner! With the holidays coming so quickly I thought we could take some time to set a few health and wellness goals for the rest of the year.
Personally I find if I set attainable and short term goals throughout the year I am more likely to stick to it! So rather then saying I want to run a marathon in 2023 I will say I want to run 50 miles in all of January, then in February I want to run a 5k each week, March I want to run 5 out of 7 days of the week…and so on! That way I can adjust my goals without feeling as if I had failed.
So for the holiday season my health goals are as follows:
Prioritize movement each day, this can be a traditional workout, a game of flag football with the family, or a walk with the dog! Just make sure to get my body moving.
Prioritize fruits and vegetables, holiday food is amazing and I have no intention of restricting what I can eat (aka any sour candy my son gets during trick or treating) but I want to ensure my body is being filled with nutritious options as well as the 3 homemade roll and pumpkin pie!
Prioritize my time, I tend to over commit during the holidays, usually with fun activities but then the fun activities become a chore because we are bouncing between so many different places. This year I want to be intentional about our activities and make sure they are serving my family.
