“Every choice you make has an end result. “ Zig Ziglar
Happy Independence Day! Today I recognize and celebrate your freedom to choose to look, feel, and be your very best. As Zig Ziglar reminds us, every choice has an end result. The good habits I work with my clients to create are just a series of choices. Here are some choices that could help you be well:
- To schedule your medical screenings (mammogram, colonoscopy, dental exam, etc.) in your smart phone
- To go food shopping every week
- To make sure you have someone spot you whenever you climb a ladder
- To get up early enough to eat breakfast and prepare something to bring for lunch
- To read a favorite book, call a friend, or write in your journal rather than turn on the TV
- To select a side salad rather than fries
- To have only safe sex (or even better, sane sex!)
- To stop drinking after one drink for women and two for men
- To choose prayer over despair and faith over worry
- To get a minimum of seven hours of sleep a night
- To quit smoking
- To schedule your exercise time: four out of five days during the week and one day on the weekend
- To appreciate how amazing your body is (healing itself, alerting you when it needs something, and so forth) rather than criticize it for not being perfect
- To ask for help, advice or support when you need it
I’m all about that last bullet. If you’d like help enhancing your wellness, make the choice to contact me today!
