Back from Vacation - Setting New Routines!

Whew! Well July flew by..but I kind of knew it would! Disney, St. Louis, Vermont...We had all of our vacations, and work trips booked early in the summer so we could all get into a better routine before we all head back to school.
Now that the fun is done...here is where I can take a deep breath. I always find August filled with anxiety - I describe August as "the Sunday of the Summer!"
Routines always help me set those negative feelings aside as well as get me back on track to achieve my health and fitness goals. Summer is my reason for "letting go!" 

Here are three tips for creating healthy routines:

• Make it fun. If you're having fun, you're more likely to stick with it, whether it's going for a jog, lifting weights, or meditating every morning before work. It's all about finding something that works for you and making it into a habit.
• Don't take it too seriously or make it too complicated. It's all about building good habits over time so they become second nature (or first nature) for you. Don't stress about doing everything perfectly and don't beat yourself up if you slip up once in a while either! Just get back on track as soon as possible and keep going!
• Be patient with yourself. Everyone has their own pace when it comes to developing new habits or re-establishing old ones, so be kind to yourself if something doesn't seem to be working right away; just keep trying until it does!
