There is a new normal upon us and it’s time to adjust accordingly. What’s that new normal? It’s learning how to effectively care for ourselves in the comfort of our own homes.
It’s no secret that I’m a huge advocate for exercising, getting healthy and fit in the comfort of your own home. I’m not necessarily against going to the gym, or using any other useful resources, I just have a much more positive experience coupled with longer lasting results with the at-home method.
That’s not to say that this will work positively for everyone, but if you’re someone who is not motivated by the gym this may be an option you may want to consider. Before we dive into the many different ways you can get fit while practicing wellness at home lets first discuss the importance of both.
What is meant by getting fit? For me this isn’t about having a slim waist, flat tummy, or weighing a specific weight. Getting fit is all about building your endurance, strengthening your muscles, tightening your core, and building your confidence, all while becoming disciplined in knowing how to effectively take care of yourself physically.
Practicing wellness is how we balance it all. Wellness is very much like self-care and they go hand in hand perfectly. With all the exercising you may or may not be doing, self-care is going to help your mind and body reset, as well as prepare you for all the work you will be putting in physically to achieve your goals.
This essentially means that you can find the energy and motivation to live your life the way you want with no limitations of any kind.
Before we move any further, I want to make an important note that being physically active and consistently practicing wellness is not about how you look on the outside. It’s all about how you feel on the inside, how you perceive yourself and appreciate your natural beauty, that you want to be reflected on the outside.
This is why it’s important to care for yourself through exercise and wellness. When you feel great, you’ll look great and vice versa. So here are a few ways you can accomplish both in the comfort of your own home. [Read more…]
