Is February Your Month for a Fresh Start?

So, we all have goals for this year right? Whether they focus on your career, finances, love life, or your health, the simple fact is we all struggle at some point. So why not get yourself off to a good start? Wouldn't it be nice to refresh yourself? Give this a try:

Healthy Food Diet: 7 Day Clean Eating Challenge

The benefits of participating in this challenge go far beyond your diet. A good clean diet can refresh and re-energize your entire body and mind. It can allow you to clear your head so you can focus on the more important things in life. How are you going to accomplish anything if you are always worrying about something else?

I'm reminded of my 16-year old niece. She works so hard to be an amazing gymnast and outstanding student. She has great organizational skills and seems to do pretty well at keeping her priorities in order. I'm sure you're thinking: "She seems to have it all in order! Why would she need any help with goals?"

Well, as great as she is at organizing her life, most of the time she forgets to schedule some down time to just relax and enjoy life. Sometimes I wonder if she keeps herself so entirely busy that she is missing out on being a teenager.

The truth is, we all do the same thing at some point in our lives. We tend to get too focused on our goals and our aspirations, that we forget how we are going to actually get there. We get sidetracked by our busy lives and don't take the time to enjoy life and everything in it. And sometimes we just get so caught up in doing things for everyone else that we forget about ourselves entirely. Isn't it time for a little self-appreciation?

You can gain a lot by taking some time to just DO NOTHING. You heard me right, I said "NOTHING." Sit back with your favorite soothing music or just in silence if you want and just do nothing. If you let your body and your mind take a breather, you will function much more efficiently and effectively.

Give it a shot! See what a little R&R can do for you!
