Micro habits are small, everyday changes that can significantly enhance health. Key areas include:
Micro Habits: Water
- Always carry a water bottle to stay hydrated, aiding digestion and brain function.
- Drink water after sugary or caffeinated drinks to counter dehydration.
- Use flavored water packets if plain water is unappealing.
Micro Habits: Food Choices
- Include fruit with every meal for essential nutrients and fiber.
- Choose whole grains over refined grains for better nutrition.
- Reduce salt intake by opting for low-sodium options and seasoning with herbs.
Micro Habits: Physical Activity
- Aim for 150 minutes of moderate activity weekly, breaking it into short bursts.
- Increase daily activity by taking stairs and parking farther away.
Incorporate resistance training using household items to maintain muscle strength.
Challenge: Try to implement one microhabit at a time and begin to build a healthy nutrition and physical activity routine. Pretty soon, making healthy choices will seem like second nature to you!
