The ONE THING That Will Make the Biggest Difference in Your Health

For me, it goes back to sleep. It's the reason I did— I talked about sleep first, because really it comes back to being well-rested. If we aren't well-rested, we're not going to be able to make those healthy decisions throughout the rest of our day. So something that I talk about with my clients is having a keystone habit. And so my keystone habit is For sure, sleep. I would say that for anyone who doesn't struggle with sleep, they might not have that as their keystone habit because it might just not be something that they struggle with. But having that in place, having 7 to 9 hours of good quality sleep is for sure the most important thing for our health.

All right, another question here is, let's see, Let's see, there's a couple of them. Oh, how can I exercise when I have such a busy life? How do I fit that into my days?

Yeah.

Or what's your recommendation on that?

Yeah. So it's tricky because we want to be able to fit all of these things in our day. And this is a question that I get asked probably most commonly, where people are already feeling overwhelmed. They don't want to add something else to Their plate. And that's where I would say start with 1 minute or 2 minutes, something that is going to be so doable that you can't say no, so easy that you can't say no. Having it be something that you also enjoy is probably going to be helpful as well so you actually do it. But I would just start, okay, I wake up in the morning, I drink my water, and I do 1 minute of Jumping jacks or 1 minute of pushups and sit-ups and maybe some burpees or something like that. Maybe I just do 1 minute of stretching if that's all you can commit to in the moment. That's where I would start. And then as you build it up, you can start to build it up over time and you might start to see, oh, I can actually make some switches in these different parts of my life where I don't need to be doing this for this long during my day and I can kind of Shift that over into being able to work out a little bit longer and a little bit longer and a little bit longer and kind of building it up from there.
