Your Powerful Ah-ha Moment- Part Two of Four

There’s a common belief that motivation is the key to success… but here’s how I see it: when we remove the small roadblocks and focus on building one habit at a time, staying on track becomes so much easier and much more sustainable. If you struggle with staying consistent with your healthy habits, here’s a little tip: Make the healthy choice the easiest choice. When something is simple, visible, and within reach, we’re way more likely to follow through. When it’s buried in effort, even the best intentions slip. Here are a few small tweaks that make a big difference: ~ Put your water bottle where you’ll see it. ~Lay out your workout clothes the night before. ~Keep protein options prepped and ready. ~Leave a yoga mat out so you’re more likely to stretch. ~Keep walking shoes by the door. ~Stash healthy snacks in your car or bag. This isn’t about piling more tasks onto your day. It's about making the healthy choice effortless. When it’s easy, consistency is much more likely to happen. So here’s your challenge today: Pick one healthy habit you want to build… and remove one barrier that’s been slowing you down. You’ve got this! ~ Adria

Do One Thing Every Day to Improve Your Health We tend to think health has to come from big, dramatic changes … the new program, the strict diet, the perfect morning routine, the full reset on Monday. And while all of those things can help, they’re not what actually move the needle in real life. Real change happens in the tiny, almost boring choices we make every single day. That actually sounds like great news to me! It means that you don’t need a whole big production to make change. You just need one small thing at a time. Do it consistently and you are headed in the right direction. Why “one thing” works When you break it down, doing one thing each day removes the overwhelm. You aren’t expecting unrealistic dedication from yourself. - One thing feels doable. - And when something feels doable, you actually do it. - One thing builds momentum. Momentum builds confidence. Confidence fuels bigger change. And suddenly you realize you are making progress! What counts as “one thing”? This is where it gets easy to overthink it. Your “one thing” doesn’t need to be a workout or a perfectly prepped meal. It just needs to make your body or mind feel better than it did yesterday. Some ideas: - Drink one extra glass of water. - Get outside for 5 minutes and breathe real, fresh air. - Add one serving of protein to a meal. - Stretch for 3 minutes before bed. - Put your phone down during dinner. - Go to bed 10 minutes earlier. - Take a short walk (literally, it can just be to the end of the street and back). - Say “no” to something that drains you. - Do 10 bodyweight squats while your coffee brews. None of these feel life-changing… until you do them again tomorrow. And the day after. And the day after. Small choices lead to big changes! The truth is, you don’t need to overhaul your life to be healthier, you just need to take ownership of today. When you pick one small thing you’re able to say, “I can do this,” you teach yourself that you are capable. You keep promises to yourself. You build trust. And that trust is what makes the bigger steps possible later. One small daily action is like compound interest for your health. It adds up. It matters. And it works. How to start today Choose one. Just one. What’s one thing that would make you feel a little better today? Not starting Monday, or after Thanksgiving or for the New Year … Starting TODAY. And tomorrow, pick a new “one thing” or you repeat the same one. It’s a very simple formula: Small, consistent habits = big, long lasting results
