People tend to think of January 1st as their ‘fresh start’ day but for many, the days after the September Labour Day Weekend are great for kick-starting your healthy routines back into gear. Those first few weeks in September provide a great opportunity to put aside the excesses and ‘lay-about days’ of the summer and get back into a steady approach to healthy living. This can include incorporating physical exercise into your DAILY living and setting up a meal plan that provides for healthy approaches to eating.
If you have children, this is also a great time to show them the value of regular exercise and eating healthy meals and snacks. Make it fun and enlist their help in family meal planning plus making up the grocery shopping list based on healthy food choices. Partnering with your kids and working with their input will encourage them to be an active participant in both exercise and smart food choices.
Use the next 30 days to get into a routine that will carry you through the winter. Remember to include both indoor and outdoor activities so that you have choices and variety based on the weather. Take advantage of that ‘going back to school’ feeling where everything felt new and was an adventure. Remember that summer’s long, sunny, aimless days are over, and it’s time to buckle down and get to work again.
