We all know that sleep is important… not to mention one of the greatest things in the universe!

I, like you, LOVE to sleep. We’re always looking to hit the snooze button and get just ten (or 20) more glorious minutes of sweet, satisfying sleep before getting up for work, or school, or whatever it is that causes you to be a called a semi-responsible person. Still, studies have shown that we are getting less and less sleep everyday.

We’re trying to do it all. Be every woman.

We want to go above and beyond at work; we want to give all the time and attention that our children can possibly ask for; we want to nurture our relationships with our significant others, family, friends, coworkers; and we want to look flawless doing it!

You might ask me, “What’s wrong with that?” Well, in a perfect world? Nothing. But, in our world, trying to do it all and be it all usually means shaving off a few minutes of sleep.

The average adult needs between seven (7) and nine (9) hour of sleep to function at our peak healthy levels. Yet, most of us get six (6) or fewer hours of sleep each night.

We have to do better. So, let’s start here and now!

The National Sleep Foundation (Yes, that’s a real thing) has a few tips to help you with your sleep hygiene:

  • Go to bed at the same time each night and rise at the same time each morning.
  • Avoid large meals before bedtime.
  • Avoid caffeine and alcohol close to bedtime.
  • Avoid nicotine.

Remember, sleep is directly associated to your overall health and well-being. Which means, the less sleep you have each night, the less energy and focus you have to devote to your work, family, friend, and, most importantly your general wellness.

So, get some more sleep. You’re body’s begging you for it!

 

You don’t have to wait for another New Year’s Eve to start thinking about a new you!

It’s July, which means that six months have come and gone since you made your New Year’s Resolution to take better care of yourself. We all start off great in the beginning. Then, life happens. We start making concessions and excuses, only to find that we’ve completely lost sight of our goals. Don’t stress. It happens to the best of us.

The great thing about it is: It’s never too late to start taking care of yourself! Your health and wellness are important! So, let’s start our plan for total wellness, TODAY! Together!

Summer is the perfect time to renew your commitment to both mental and physical health. And you don’t have to do it alone!

It’s time to start being a happier, healthier YOU!

It’s been two months since all those New Year resolutions were made.  Did you stick with yours?

We hope the answer is YES!

Sometimes sticking to your workout regimes and eating healthy can be a challenge. We’ve put together some motivational tips to help keep you on track to reach your goals!

The first thing you need to remember is you made this resolution for a reason. Whether you wanted to lose weight and get in shape or just live a healthier lifestyle, there are reasons behind your resolutions.  Keep those reasons fresh in your mind each day to keep you moving in the right direction.

  • Make the Commitment – Commit to yourself to make permanent changes in your diet andexercise habits and STICK WITH IT!
  • Take Baby Steps – bring ealthy foods into your diet gradually. If you quit ALL junk food cold turkey, you’ll have a better chance of cheating later on.
  • Understand that you won’t be perfect – You WILL slip up from time to time. That’s normal. Don’t beat yourself up over it. When it happens, just recommit and get back on track!
  • Be Social About Your Goals – whether you share your progress on Facebook or with friends and family, the more of a support system you have, the better!
  • Get pampered – With all the hard work and dedication you put in, you deserve a little pampering. Make sure you stop by your local Planet Beach and get a massage or facial on a regular basis.
  • Cheer Yourself On – stick post-it notes around your house and office with motivational quotes or pin motivational images on Pinterest to keep you motivated and on track

Remember, this is something YOU want. It’s up to YOU to achieve it. Make smart decisions, don’t give in to temptation, work hard and reward yourself (not with food) and you will see amazing results.

Hang in there! Bikini season is almost here!
