Monday morning NEW

It's monday....I know, why isn't the weekend just one more day? Alas here we are, soooooo what have you planned for today to get you through on a high of taking good care of yourself? Sure you have made a big To Do list of work projects, family, house, groceries....but wait where is your personal list? You can't get everything else done without taking care of YOU first! In fact you will ....we repeat....WILL have a meltdown if you forget that personal list. Burning that candle stick at both ends is not helping anyone, especially YOU. So guess what?! It's not too late to jot down a list of only personal things you WILL accomplish this week, on top of your other to do lists. Mine this week? 10 minutes of mediation each morning before I get out of bed, exercise each day, at least 15 minutes or more if time allows, watch my sugar intake (oh I have a fierce sweet tooth, gotta keep that in check ;) ️So how will you start your list? 3 things, personal choices to BFIT4U :)

Try something NEW :)

It's Spring! The earth wakes from its winter slumber and all things renew! So what are you doing to renew your spirit? Has your workout routine become stale? Are you still eating your Easter chocolate for breakfast, lunch and dinner this week?;) Hey, we all have our two steps forward, three steps back moments....but guess what?! Mother Nature is here to remind us that each day, each season is a chance to start again! You are one thought away from the best version of you, now isn't that a great thing? Yes! Yes! Yes! Right now you have the choice to do something for you to improve your overall health, just by trying something new! Ditch that old exercise class you've been doing since last year, and shake it up with a new one! Put on those sneakers and walk, run or hike that trail you're always wanting to try out. Go to your local grocery store and pass ye olde chip aisle for a direct route to produce and savor the fruits and veggies of the season! Spring is your time to shine, blossom and grow with all the beautiful foliage all around you! Try something new, be consistent in your new choices, creating a new habit by doing something everyday or every other day, and in one month you will see that change your body craves~your soul wants, and your smile deserves~ B-FIT4U :)
