  • Walk for ten minutes morning, lunch and night
  • Have a dance party with your family or friends
  • Wrestle with your kids, spouse, roommates or friends
  • Try yoga, pilates, aerobics or martial arts either in a class or at home on a DVD
  • Go to the roller skating rink
  • Play tag with your kids or friends at the park
  • Go for a hike or bike ride
  • Throw the Frisbee around at the park
  • Play a sport or go for a run
  • Sit on a fitness ball at work
  • Take the stairs, walk more when possible

You may recall from our earlier post, that your internal sleep clock is strongly influenced by our exposure to light.
 
You can let your internal clock know it’s almost time for bed by avoiding bright lights one hour before you plan on sleeping. Try to mimic what’s happening outside. Begin turning off or dimming lights. Avoid bright light that comes from electronic devices (it stimulates your brain, keeping you awake). If you still want to use an electronic device be sure to dim the screen. And remember, the more consistent you are the better. Click HERE for more sleep tips.

Success in health & life starts with keeping commitments

Your success in life and health starts with being true to yourself. You do this by making and keeping commitments, first to yourself and then to others. Every day you make commitments or promises to yourself, “I’m going to get up at 7,” “I’m going to walk 15 minutes this morning,” “I’m going to eat a healthy lunch.” And your success is ultimately determined by your ability to make and keep these commitments to yourself. 

If you have struggled reaching yours goals, you likely don’t follow through with commitments to yourself and others. Take a minute and write down the commitments you made this past week and whether you followed through or not. Choose today to be different. Choose today to make and keep commitments to yourself and others. Be realistic, start small, and only commit to things you know you will actually do. By doing so you WILL be successful.

    Ground Rules

    No judging: we’re all on the same journey, just at different stages so let’s not tear each other down. 
    Be honest: let’s get real and let’s do it fast because we are running out of time. 
    Be open minded and kind: there’s no right or wrong answer (sure some may be better than others) but let’s be open to someone else’s viewpoint. 

    Accept responsibility: you’re an adult with personal control living in a free land; no one is forcing you to do anything. Assume responsibility for your own actions while we simultaneously work to make the whole system better.
