JOIN OUR NEWSLETTER- https://colossusfitness.lpages.co/motivation-monday-newsletter/Summary of episode:(0:00) - IntroIn this episode we go over 7 SIMPLE healthy habits that will change your life. Key word here being SIMPLE. No cost involved, no need to spend hours doing it, these are things you can and should do DAILY.1 (01:19) - Schedule time for exerciseWith everyone’s busy schedules it can be easy to skip out on that workout you were considering doing after work. Rather than planning to exercise when you “have the time,” schedule your workouts into the calendar.2 (03:13) - Develop your magic morningThis can look different for everyone. Maybe for you it’s practicing yoga every morning, maybe it’s journaling while enjoying a cup of coffee, or maybe it’s carving out time to sit down and enjoy breakfast with your family.Whatever it is, creating a morning routine will give you time for yourself to ease into the day with the right momentum and energy. This also may be the only time for the rest of the day you can have a bit of solitude, so enjoy it.3 (05:19) - Express gratitude/meditateExpressing gratitude has been shown to change your brain chemistry to focus more on the positive things in your life, become more mindful, and be more giving to others.You can’t be grateful and angry/upset at the same time.We live in a world where we are constantly stressed and activating stress hormones in our bodies, which can have a negative impact on our health. Taking the time to breathe and meditate helps you de-stress and signals to your body that you’re safe.Just start with 1 minute if you’re new to it.4 (08:16) - Get a daily dose of natureSpending time in nature can instantly restore your energy and lower stress. There is nothing more peaceful and natural than spending time surrounded by trees and soaking in a bit of sunlight.5 (09:15) - Make time for downtime/things you look forward toAs the saying goes we were’t put on this earth just to pay bills and die. So remember to carve out some time for yourself to do the things that bring you joy.Give yourself permission to enjoy life.6 (10:49) - Consistently read & learnWhether it’s regular books, audiobooks, podcasts, courses, etc, constantly investing in yourself will always pay off.7 (11:37) - Keep your space tidyA tidy space=a tidy mind. Keeping your space clean and organized will leave your mind in a calmer state. Keeping your space tidy also makes it easy to know what resources you have, and helps to save you time in the long run.Thanks for listening!
