This came across my newsfeed, 12 New Habits to Try if You Want to Focus on Your Health This Summer: “Small changes to your lifestyle can make a big impact on your overall health. Here are the top ones you should consider starting today.”
It’s a pretty good list. Go read the article if you want details but here are the twelve recommended habits: prioritize sleep, walk more, read for 30 minutes, meditate, spend more time in nature, eat more plant based foods, drink more water, drink less alcohol, quit smoking, spend more time with loved ones, take a break from electronics, take up a new hobby.
It’s a pretty good list, right?
You could either just pick five and join us in our personalized version of the 75 day challenge, or try taking on all twelve at once.
Anything you’d add? I’ve got writing on my habit list. If I were going to six, I might add gardening.
Speaking of which, I did find a great new habit tracker. It’s free and open source. It’s also simple, which I like. I blogged about it here.
Oh, and thanks, Microsoft copilot, for help with blog titles!
