Tips to Start a Healthy Lifestyle

September 21, 2020 Comments : 5

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of EpiCor. All opinions are 100% mine.

Living a healthier lifestyle is a great first step in being healthy and staying healthy. Even making small changes in your normal routine can help. Here are some tips on how to start living a healthier lifestyle.

Tips to Start a Healthy Lifestyle 

Rest Up

Get that beauty sleep. The majority of adults require 7-8 hours of sleep a night. I know, I know, being a parent means that sometimes 7-8 hours of uninterrupted bliss is a magical unicorn that you have never seen nor experienced. The beneits of getting enough sleep, when you can, are undeniable.

Health.gov shares that the body thrives on not only enough sleep but quality sleep as well. The benefits include healthier weight, improved mood, clearer thinking, as well as lowering your risk for serious health problems such as high blood pressure and diabetes. So do your best to catch those z’s.

Drink up

No I don’t mean alcohol. Your body is about 60% water and consuming enough water each day can help eliminate waste from the body according to the CDC. If your are in climates with a higher temperature or you exercise you need even more water. So drink up.

Improve your overall gut health

Want a healthy immune system and gut? Then make sure that you focus on supporting your gut microbiome. One way to do this is by using products that contain Epicor and probiotics like Align’s Kombucha on-the-go.

Epicor is a fermentate. By tapping into the natural power of fermentation, Epicor delivers immune and gut health benefits in an easy to take product. Currently, I am using the Align Probiotic Kombucha on the go packets. These are perfect to mix in with water and take on the go with you for a little immune boost and dose of Epicor.

You can also find Epicor Gut Connection by Country Life and Healthy Origins! To learn more abut exactly what Epicor is? You can check out all the details at epicorhealth.com

Exercise

Reap all the mood boosting, cardiovascular benefits of getting out and exercising. For me, I love spin classes and walking. For you, it may be yoga and ultra marathons; no judgement. Whatever exercise you enjoy, get out and do it. Also, don’t be afraid to mix it up you may find something you love in the process.

As a family we love getting out to hike and it is a great way to get the kids out as well to exercise! You can find lots of hikes in your area as well.

Focus on Nutrition

Processed foods and extra sugar is bad. We all know this, yet we continue to eat it. Focus on getting whole foods, think fruits and vegetables, into your diet and limit the high sugar items such as soda and cookies. Your body will thank you.

9 + years since my first was born and almost 3 sin 9 + years since my first was born and almost 3 since my second and I have to say I still have no idea what I’m doing when it comes to parenting. ⁣

The great thing is; these two have no idea that most days I’m just winging it. Now more then ever, it’s important we admit to ourselves this motherhood thing is hard and as long as we keep the small humans happy and fed we are totally winning at this #momlife ⁣

Grateful Warrior; a print from the lovely and tale Grateful Warrior; a print from the lovely and talented @lindsey.erin. A wonderful artist (for real check out her stuff) and person who inspires me daily with her creativity and positivity. ⁣
⁣
This print means so many different things to me in this season of my life. ⁣
It’s a reminder that I am a strong woman who doesn’t give up easily. Someone who aspires to do more, be more. As a partner, mother, friend. ⁣
⁣
It’s also a reminder to be grateful for the opportunities I have and the power of my light I send out into this world. I glance at it everyday, hanging in my office reminding me to be the grateful warrior that I am.⁣

We are officially closing out this year!!⁣ 2020 We are officially closing out this year!!⁣
2020 was a year full of many challenges but it held some amazing moments and opportunities as well. ⁣
⁣
We took a fun, much needed vacation at the beginning of the year with @carnival cruise line, got married @samosetresort on a whim, personally I grew my blog and met some pretty large goals I had set for myself this year and the kids stayed happy and healthy. So even with the bad, there was a lot of good.⁣
⁣
I’m hopeful that this New Year will bring even more opportunities and chances to grow and be a little less hard on others. ⁣
