5 Things To Do For Your Health This Month - February
No matter where you live, February is a hunker-down month. Whether it’s the weather, or the realization that it’s going to take more than a New Year’s promise to effect serious personal change, or the fact that you’re emotionally hung over from the holidays (followed by the obligatory January dig-out), February is a good month to re-focus. So what five things can you do for your health this month?
1) February is National Heart Month - for obvious reasons! With heart disease, high blood pressure, and diabetes occurring in younger and younger people (generally due to obesity), Heart Month can be a good reason to boost your New Year’s resolve to live a healthier life. February is the plateau month for resolutions, when it’s crucial to assess what’s worked so far, what hasn’t worked, and to re-affirm your reasons to change. If you’re wavering - are you skipping days to exercise? changing your plans at the last minute to justify food/exercise relapses? thinking evil thoughts about how “ridiculous” your attempt to change is - then it’s important to recognize those warning signs and rally your cheerleading support systems.
