8 Simple and Effective Habits You Can Start Today
As we welcome a new decade, we can be overwhelmed by an endless list of lifestyle changes that we’d like to implement. Today on the blog, we bring you 8 easy and super effective habits to implement today for a year of positivity and productivity ☺️
1. Make your bed first thing in the morning.
Starting the day by completing a simple task can set it all up for optimal productivity. This small chore that often takes less than a minute to-do, makes you feel empowered to tackle the rest of your to-do list.
2. Create a to-do list the night before.
Organization is key! At the end of your day, gather your thoughts and prioritize what you need to get done. That way waking up doesn’t seem too daunting and you’ve already got a hold on things.
3. Meditate
Meditation has been proven to reduce stress, eliminate brain fog, enhance productivity and more! Start your daily meditation with 10 minutes a day and assess your progress. Here's a guide on how to create a meditation practice that will actually stick!
4. Schedule your self care in!
Whether it's an at home yoga session or a night in completed with a bath - make sure that you set aside the time to make it happen. Often, if we don't schedule it in the calendar along with our meetings and deadlines, chances are it'll continue to get pushed back. Commit to dates with yourself ❤️
5. Drink a gallon of water everyday.
Being on top of your water game helps to boost skin health, deliver oxygen throughout the body and improves gut health.
6. Journal.
Whether it's a bullet list of what you're grateful for, or a full page reflection - journaling helps to keep yourself focused, grounded and allows for you to have a healthy outlet for your thoughts and feelings.
7. Avoid screens during down time.
As hard as it is these days - try to avoid having your phone be the last think you look at before snoozing off or the first thing you look at when you wake up. Studies have shown that keeping the phone away from the bedroom can lead to better sleep, and therefore more productive days.
8. Don't forget to celebrate the wins!
Big or small - take some time to recognize the little milestones that build up to your big successes.
