Weekly Reflection: Less Is More

For this week’s reflection, we want to talk about simplifying things. Does it ever feel like there is SO much to think about when it comes to a day’s worth of action steps? Let’s talk about focusing on the basics. It can feel really overwhelming when you start a new health & wellness program or even if you’re in the midst of one and having a tough time juggling all of the daily habits and tasks that need to be done. Think about it - every day you’re encouraged to drink water, get 10K steps in, meal plan/prep, log any food or exercise, meditate, keep up with the supplements, develop a sleep routine, and the list goes on.….all on top of your regular, daily responsibilities. It’s a lot, right? Let’s look at this journey in a more realistic light.

Dial Back To Focus In:

  • Set one goal/focus on one habit at a time -- what feels most important?

  • Break this goal down & make it S.M.A.R.T. -- specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, time-based

  • Aim for consistency & progress -- not perfection.

  • Apply what works best for you & is most enjoyable -- this supports momentum & sustainability.

  • Be patient with yourself--change happens over time, not overnight.

Reflection Questions to Consider:
