Healthy Habits Monday

In honor of my 39th birthday, I've decided that I'm going to pick a new "Healthy Habit" each week for the next year. By my 40th birthday I hope to be more organized, healthier, and a better person overall. And maybe I'll have fewer UFOs on my list!

They won't necessarily all be related to physical health, since my spiritual and mental well being are just as important to me and, IMHO, interconnected. If you decide to make this journey with me (or even join me for a week) please link up and share your results.

For my inaugural week, I'd like to start with the obvious and choose exercise; however, the next few days are already shaping up to be a nightmare of logistics. I think I'll table that one until next week. If I rotate through a 4 week cycle of body, home, spirit, and mind, then next on the list would be the house. Let's start this week by digging out of the paper mountain that threatens to bury me on a regular basis and commit to 15 minutes every weekday of Paper Tiger Taming. And don't forget to recycle! Being more "green" is definitely on my list.
What are you going to do this week to improve yourself? Leave a comment and let me know.

  1. Are you aware of Flylady who is doing one habit a month? More related to getting a grip on your home, but also includes pampering missions, drinking your water, eating fruit and so on. www.flylady.net

  2. Hey =) good for you setting goals!
    I started doing something similar about 2 months ago. The first month I committed to walking everyday. I confess I missed a few days here and there but I've managed to keep it up and I actually miss it if dont do it.
    Then I invested in Wii fit, doing that every other day. Its tons of fun, and I reward myself after 30 mins with 1/2 hour of Mario Galaxy lol
    Organizing my house...meh, ive tried flylady and all those organizational techniques, sadly i am a complete failure at such things. Maybe Ill work on it harder...maybe.... =)
