If you want to change something in your life the best place to start is your routines and habits. Habits we tend to do without thinking about them. This lack of awareness can be feeding triggers and programming that do not help us. For instance, during the winter months with less daylight, I had gotten in the habit of coming home and putting on comfy clothes and settling in for the night. I recognize, now that it’s summertime, if I want to lose the winter weight from less activity, I need to get out and move. I have to change the habit I created. Instead, when I come home, I will put on workout clothes and walking shoes and go for a walk.

Is there something in your life you want to change? View your life with a mindful awareness free of judgment, take note and then take action! We have all heard change your habits, and you can change your life. Let’s do it together!
