Tip #1 - Start Your Day with a Glass of Water

Think about it... the entire human body is made of 66% water. Muscles are about 76% water, lungs are about 90%, and most importantly, the brain is made of 95% water. It's very easy to see why water and hydration play such a big role in living a healthy lifestyle.

Your body goes quite a few hours without being hydrated while you sleep. Drinking a full glass of water in the morning will aid in digestion, help to flush out toxins, enhance your skin health, and give you a natural boost of energy.

Tip #2 - Mindful Morning Gratitude

Starting your day with gratitude will help you to have a more positive outlook on your life as a whole. You will begin to notice the blessings that surround you and be able to create balance in your day to day life. Studies have shown that incorporating daily gratitude practice can reduce depression and anxiety, relieve stress, and even improve sleep.

"A review of 70 studies that include responses from more than 26,000 people found an association between higher levels of gratitude and lower levels of depression." – UCLA Health

Tip #3 - Take Your Vitamins, Minerals, and Supplements

Vitamins and minerals will help to boost your immunity, improve your gut health, enhance your skin and hair health, aid in your brain function, support a plant based diet, improve your sleep cycle, and aid in healthy aging.

I noticed a massive difference in my health and overall mood when I started incorporating daily vitamins, minerals, and supplements. My personal favorites are probiotics, papaya digestive enzymes, collagen, vitamin C, vitamin D, magnesium and mushroom blend supplements. I noticed these vitamins, supplements, and minerals made a noticeably positive impact on my day to day life.

Tip #4 - Mindful Movement

Mindful movement allows for you to check in with your body and get moving in a way that will release stagnant energy, lower stress, improve your level of focus, and strengthen your mind-body connection. Research has shown that mindful movement can also improve your emotional wellbeing.

Beginners yoga is a great way to get started with mindful movement.

Tip #5 - Spend Time Outside

Lastly, spending time outside is an easy way to enhance your health and overall well-being. Time spent outside can generate feelings of calmness, joy, and creativity. Regular access to green spaces has been linked to improved concentration and attention, while lowering the risks of depression.
