How to Stay Active When the Weather is Bad

When the weather turns cold and wet, it’s easy to skip your usual exercise routine. However, staying active is important for your health and can help reduce stress. Here are some simple ways to keep moving, even when the weather isn’t great. 1. Try Indoor Workouts:  If it's freezing rain, bring your workout indoors. You can follow workout videos online, do yoga, or try simple exercises like push-ups, sit-ups, and jumping jacks at home. 2. Walk Indoors: If you can't walk outside, try walking in larger stores or other indoor spaces. Even just pacing during phone calls in your house can add up! 3. Make it Social: Invite family or friends to join you in your workout. Play an active video game, have a dance party, or go bowling to keep it fun. It can also help the conversation keep moving when you are suddenly hanging out with that cousin you have nothing in common with! 4. Set a Schedule: Make a plan and stick to it. Set aside time each day for some physical activity, even if it

Saving Money in November

  November is a great time to start saving money, especially with the holidays around the corner. Here are some simple tips to help you stretch your budget this month. 1. Plan Your Meals: With cooler weather, it’s a great time to cook at home. Plan your meals around what’s on sale, and use seasonal produce like sweet potatoes, squash, and apples, which are often cheaper. Cooking at home not only saves money but also lets you make healthier choices. 2. Host Wisely: When hosting a gathering, spread out the effort and cost by encouraging friends to bring something. Even simple contributions, like bringing a drink to share can help. This can also help ensure that picky eaters have at least one thing they are comfortable with. 3. Shop Sales Smartly: Black Friday and Cyber Monday offer big discounts, but don’t buy things just because they’re on sale. Make a list of what you need, set a budget, and stick to it. Look for deals on items you were already planning to buy. 4. DIY Gifts: The ho

  Having a simple morning and evening routine can make a big difference in your life. Routines help you start and end your day in a positive way or a negative way. Intentionally setting a routine that utilizes "autopilot" in a good way sets you up for success without having to consciously choose optimally each time. When starting out, keeping your routine simple can help make it realistic. Below is a sample jumping off point, but no one routine works for everyone. After reading, take a moment to think about what would be helpful for you. Morning Routine: Wake up at your preferred time : Get up with enough time to prepare for the day, but not so early that it prevents getting good sleep.  Stretch or exercise : A few minutes of stretching or light exercise wakes up your body and mind.  Eat a healthy breakfast : A good breakfast gives you energy and helps you focus. It doesn't need to be elaborate, it just needs to be a healthy option that works with

Taking Care of Your Mental Health During the Holidays

  The holidays are often seen as a joyful time, but they can also bring stress, loneliness, and anxiety. It’s important to take care of your mental health during this busy season. Here are some tips to help you stay balanced and enjoy the holidays. 1. Manage Your Expectations: The holidays don’t have to be perfect. Don’t put pressure on yourself to create the “ideal” holiday. Focus on what truly matters to you and let go of the rest. If you are going to do something very different, communicate to others so to help them manage their expectations too. 2. Take Breaks: With so much going on, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. Make sure to take time for yourself. Whether it’s reading a book, taking a walk, or just sitting quietly, give yourself permission to relax. Reserve some time for you, and unapologetically stick to it. If you don't feel confident in saying that this time is reserved, say you have a prior commitment or another vague but true explanation that does feel natural. 3. Stay
