During the holiday season, physical health often takes a back seat. We’re so busy with family and friends that we neglect our normal routine. That can leave you feeling run down, lethargic, and uninspired. The holidays are a time of good cheer and celebration. The good news is you can experience that joy and still manage to take care of your physical health.

Choose to make your physical health a priority during the holidays. Take the initiative because you’re worth it, and your enjoyment of the holidays depends on it. A commitment to your health will lead you to find the time, and the time spent will provide enough energy and self-confidence to get you through the stressful parts of your holiday season.

 

Get the exercise that your body is used to and that it craves, so you can stay feeling alive. In the midst of all the holiday shopping, get-togethers with friends, and obligations, your workout must be a priority for you to succeed. Be flexible about the days and times of your workouts, but remain firm that you will get your workout in.

 

Make Time for Your Needs

 

Even when the holidays are in full swing, family and friends are around one another for only part of every day. You’ll have some time to yourself. Use that time wisely and plan carefully to get the most out of your holidays. If you do, you’ll surely be able to find time for your workout.

 

Remind yourself that you’ll feel sluggish if you miss your workout. Constantly visualize yourself enjoying the success that awaits you for attaining your physical goals. Take care of your body, and your body will thank you with the energy to take care of everything else over the holidays.

 

Family and Friends May Follow Your Lead

 

If you stay consistent in your workouts and enjoy taking care of your physical health, others in your family may follow suit. You can help them get healthy by showing them your goals and how you’re working toward them. Consider working with them on:

 

  • Getting some exercise each day so they remain energetic
  • Seeing that exercise can be fun and enjoyable so they’ll keep doing it in the long-term
  • Finding activities they like so that they’re more likely to keep exercising in the future

 

After all, you probably had to do all of those things when you first started working out. You might have had someone to encourage you, or you may have been required to figure it out on your own. Either way, you have the opportunity to set a good example for others while still keeping yourself healthy over the holidays. Take advantage of that chance to help other people.

 

If you’re focused and dedicated to staying healthy, you’ll find ways to work out during quiet times and schedule your exercise around family activities so that everyone wins.

 

Your body will thank you, your mind will be more alert, and the holidays will seem far less stressful when you take care of yourself first. Invest the time in your workouts to make the most of all the holidays have to offer you.

  • “Over the past few years, sound therapy—the practice of using frequency and vibration to sooth and stabilize the nervous system—made its way into yoga studios, therapy sessions, retreats, and meditation spaces across the county. As ancient as yoga itself with deep roots in cultures around the world, the more recent understanding of the science behind sound healing garnered a new appreciation and expanded audiences.”

  • “With spring around the corner and winter soon to be a distant memory, it is the perfect time to think about spring cleaning and new beginnings – not just in your space, but in your mind. Each season serves its purpose, with winter being the time of darkness, death, and rest before the new awakening and energetic rebirth of spring. As we move into spring, we feel ready to spark our energy, clear our minds, and welcome new beginnings. No matter how you  refresh, you will want to make sure you clear your mind and take time to meditate, ground, and spring clean.”
