Create New Habits that Stick
Welcome to the New Year where we look to create new goals. It is important for you to look at your goals and make them last longer than this week. Create a goal that is a little outside your comfort zone. Make it small enough to be doable. An example is I want to walk...

“Are you tired of starting your days feeling exhausted and unproductive? It might be time to reevaluate your morning routine. Incorporating sunlight and visualization into your routine can have a major impact on your mood, energy, and productivity throughout the day.
Exposing yourself to sunlight in the morning can help regulate your body’s natural sleep-wake cycle, also known as your circadian rhythm. This can lead to improved mood and energy levels, making it easier to tackle your to-do list with a positive and motivated mindset.
But that’s not all – taking a few moments to visualize how you want your day to go can also make a big difference. This simple practice can help you stay focused and motivated, and can even help you feel more in control of your day.
So why wait? Start incorporating sunlight and visualization into your morning routine today and see the benefits for yourself!”
