Being active and eating healthy is so much easier and more enjoyable when you are being motivated and guided along the way. My goal here is to help you challenge yourself towards daily activity and healthy eating! This blog is my community out reach project for the Nutritional Therapy course I will be finishing in October.

To start I have decided to post a challenge in order to create a platform for feeling healthy and fit as we leave summer and enter once again into the colder seasons! The challenge is “Git Fit August”! Listed below are 7 challenges that you can try out and personalize for your own schedule. I will be posting on my other PAGES; Yoga videos and other workout ideas, meal plans which you can use or take ideas from, recipes and other nutritional information I come across. 

Here is a quick summery of the 7 challenges for the month of August:

1. Rebalance your eating! Cutting back the Sugar and planning out well-rounded nutrient dense meals that do not include refined or packaged foods, as well as keeping a food Journal of it all. Weekly Meal Plan… Food Journal… Nutrition lowdown throw-down

2. Start the morning 30 minutes earlier. Wake up with a short devotion and morning yoga stretch. I will be posting a video hopefully by the 1st

3. Setting aside a certain amount of time to workout 6 days a week. Maybe it is 20 min maybe it is an hour but whatever the time amount is try to stick to it you can add on throughout the month if you feel inspired as you perspire ☺

4. Try something new once a week! Maybe a new hike, maybe a new farmers market or a healthy local restaurant. A new swimming spot or biking trail. Climbing, yoga, boating, ice blocking, golfing. Something you always wanted to try and haven’t.

5. Buddy System! Take the challenge with somebody that can: 1 workout with you 2 encourage you 3 keep you accountable

6. Do something NICE! Maybe there is someone that has been on your mind. Someone you keep meaning to call but haven’t. Pick a day to volunteer some of your time. Maybe a local summer program, Maybe at church. Maybe a young kid or a busy mom or tired dad. Do it just because.

 7. Day of REST Pick a day to Rest, Enjoy your family and count your blessings☺
