What is the best health advice you have ever heard? I don’t know if I can quite pin down a specific health tid bit that trumps all, but I have found a wonderful quote that gives some sound health advice that anyone can follow.
“Sometimes the most urgent and vital thing you can possibly do is take a complete rest.” - Ashleigh Brilliant
It’s critical for your health to get enough rest each night. It’s one of those things that is just so easy, but many forget the real value of a simple good night’s rest. Prioritize your your day’s schedule and get the rest your body so desperately needs.

Too many “diets” and “new ways of life” start on Monday. If you have resolved to start exercising on a Wednesday, why wait until the following Monday to get started? Start now!
Here’s an excellent quote I came across this last week, and it should serve as a reminder to all of you who wait until Monday to start making positive changes in your life.
“A year from now you will wish you had started today” – Karen Lamb
If you need to start exercising or eat healthy, don’t wait until tomorrow. You have the ability to start right now. Start today, and continue on for the rest of your life. Don’t live your life continually thinking “I’ll start tomorrow” or “I’ll start someday…when I’m ready” or “on Monday”. If you continue thinking like this, chances are, you will never start and you will continue making excuses to start another day. I’m sure you’ve heard other people (or yourself!) say “I am going to start next Monday because of X, Y, Z…”. Again, don’t make excuses. Look how far they have taken you. Nowhere.
Remember that today is always the best day to progress and make your life better than it was yesterday.

When life gives you lemons, just add water!
Skinny Tip:
If you are looking for a healthy cleanse, a way to boost your metabolism, and a great afternoon “pick me up”, then just squeeze a little bit of fresh lemon juice into a cup of water and enjoy!
Not only does water with a bit of lemon taste great, but did you also know that lemons are known for a plethora of health benefits?
I suggest that you take advantage of them.

“Commitment leads to action. Action brings your dream closer.” – Marcia Wieder
I thought that this was such a great quote. So many people want to change their lives for the better, yet they aren’t willing to commit to themselves and really make it happen.
Unfortunately, you are not likley to reach your weight loss goals (for example) in just two weeks. It takes time.
Fortunately, the time and effort you put towards your health are going to be worth it in the end. Focus on the end goal and you will ultimately reach your goals. Fall back a couple of steps? That’s OK. That’s life! Just get yourself back on track sooner rather than later and keep moving forward.
Tell me what you have done to commit to yourself and reach your goals!

It’s OK to ask for help!
When it comes to getting into shape, do you need advice or motivation? Perhaps you can benefit from an “exercise buddy”? Maybe you need to find someone you can “report” to, when it comes to weigh-ins, exercise goals or even calorie (nutrition) consumption? Find someone that is reliable and will be a positive influence in your health goals!

You don’t have to do it alone - I encourage you to participate in our forum, which in on Facebook. The more people who join the conversation, the better it will be for everyone!
PS – don’t you just love this old school picture? It sure made my day! haha
