Move
Climb stairs for 30 seconds, three times. This is super effective, ultra-simple work that improves cardiovascular endurance and lower body stamina. Link it with meal times, or set an alarm on your phone. Quick and easy.
Eat
Drink a glass of water before each meal. There’s plenty of anecdotal evidence to suggest that drinking water before meals might support feelings of fullness and lead to a decrease in consumption of excess calories. But even if not, it’s a good way to improve hydration.
Sleep
Take a short nap (less than 30 minutes). Naps have the potential to be amazing for improving alertness and providing much-needed rest. Often, naps of longer than 30 minutes can disrupt nighttime sleep. Generally speaking, shorter naps keep the benefits, but don’t result in difficulty falling asleep later.
Manage
Label your feelings with one word when stressed. Something well-known to meditators and therapists, and confirmed scientifically, is that naming emotions will often help to reduce their intensity. Read more HERE.
