Building Healthy Habits
Building Healthy Habits
It is important to learn to build healthy habits to live a healthier life. There are 4 things to help you do this:
- Exercise a little bit everyday
- Eat healthy nourishing food
- Take a break and let your mind refresh
- Connect regularly with friends and family
Here is one challenge for you to try this week:
The ‘How Are We Doing?’ Challenge
Developed by Philip and Carolyn Cowan, two the University of California, Berkeley professors who have spent their careers studying children and families. To complete this challenge, take a quiet moment in the morning or evening with anyone who is important to you. Ask each other the simple question, “How are we doing?” Take a moment to think about what in the relationship has made you feel happy recently. Are there special memories you want to talk about together? Were there moments, happy or sad, where you wish you had spoken up, asked for help or shared your feelings? This challenge will help you explore your relationship, what’s working and where you can do better. Try it!
