Rewire Your Brain and Recharge Your Body for the Holidays!
There are so many days I wake up to hear the news and end up feeling depressed or down and have an excuse not to work out. But I don’t fall prey to such thinking. I exercise. I eat well. I do the things that help me relax and make me feel good.
With the holidays coming and economy in such decline, NOW is the time to take care of yourself, to train hard and eat right to be in great shape for the New Year, and to keep the holiday blues away. Instead of that 5 or 10 pounds that people typically gain over the holidays, lose a few pounds, or keep your weight steady.
Keep those dangerous comfort foods out of your home. You can do without the cookies, candies and cakes. Surround yourself with healthier options, such as luscious fresh fruits.
Stay on course by eating some protein before going to holiday parties. That way you won’t be so hungry that you sample everything on the buffet. Skip the eggnog and mixed drinks, and sip red wine, which is full of antioxidants, or sparkling water.
Devote your energy now to staying positive. Don’t waste your thoughts on negativity. Things will get better, and when they do, you will be in great shape and ahead of the game! Involve your family in your health and fitness pursuits. You will all be healthier and you will have built a bond for all family members. It will cost the same whether you worry or focus on getting healthy. If your family is far away, connect with your friends. Don’t be isolated over the holidays.
Exercise every day. Work out hard enough to get those endorphins going and you’ll feel so much better. You’ll relieve your stress and improve your health. Get your family moving, too. Go to the park. Take long walks or runs, or ride your bikes. Spend more time playing sports, eating well and spending quality time together. You’ll be giving your family the most important gift of all--health and fitness. These are the moments your family will never forget. Treasure this holiday and focus on the positive.
Perhaps this is a blessing to all of us to focus on what is most important--family, friends and our health! ’Tis the season to be healthy and fit!
