8 Weeks of Healthy Habits!
Welcome to week 5 of our #8weeksofhealthyhabits. Each week, I will post an overview of the upcoming week's goals with some helpful links and info. The purpose of this challenge is not to be stressful, preachy, or overbearing, just a fun way to incorporate some new ideas. If you like something that we do, please feel free to incorporate it into your daily/weekly schedule and really make it a new habit. If you're looking to really up your game, try the #DaisyDukeStrong challenge at the bottom of this post.
The fun part about these challenges is the sharing. See if you can post a thought or a selfie each day to the facebook page about what you're doing. If you're an Instagram user, you can also post there, using the hashtags #PIG and #8weeksofhealthyhabits
Week 5:
Sunday: Take some time to reflect on your day & the last week. Write in a journal, or share to your blog. Journaling on a regular basis can help you gain insight to your own humanity.
Monday: Try an AM yoga routine in the morning. A few sun salutations will get the blood flowing and your brain working better than coffee!
Tuesday: Have a monster salad for dinner. What is a monster salad? A salad as big as you can make it! Check out your local farmer's market & see what kinds of freah, local produce you can include! I'll post my recipe for my tempeh tahini salad on my blog.
Wednesday: Work those arms! I know I frequently forget to work the rest of my body, so I installed a pull up bar above a door in my house. I do a few pull-ups when I pass through the doorway!
Thursday: Add some fruits, herbs, or veggies to infuse your water. Try prepping this Wednesday night, and letting your water chill overnight. Yum.
Friday: Free Fitness! Post a selfie of you doing your favorite activity to the facebook page! Each Friday will be Free Fitness Friday. You get to choose the activity- just get up and do something and share it with the rest of us! If you post to Instagram, don't forget your hashtags, #PIG and #8weeksofhealthyhabits
Saturday: Meditate for 10 minutes. You can use one of the apps or programs I've previously mentioned, or just sit quietly for 10 minutes and allow yurself to be.
