Do you feel like you’re stuck in a rut? I’m sorry if you do because that sucks. All I can say is that you need to fight to get out of it. Fight to get rid of the habits that make you feel worse about yourself.

Find things that make you feel alive again. Life is supposed to be fun. Create habits that make you enjoy life again.

Okay anyway, let’s talk about some simple health tips.

To all my tight friends out there, you need to stretch.

It may suck when you are doing it, but the benefits outweigh the suckiness of it. Stretching has many benefits to it. It increases blood flow, and helps your mobility…

There are many benefits to stretching, if you are not completely convinced, look it up and see all of them.

I know that I feel better when I stretch daily. My hips and knees don’t hurt when I am in a solid stretching routine.

Make sure to stretch your hips. Our hips hurt when they are stuck sitting in a chair all day, so we need to do specific stretches that help our hips!

If you don’t have the motivation to stretch, just think about how grateful you will be in 20 years if you start stretching now. You don’t want to have a hard time walking when you get older.

You’ll be able to go on power walks at 80 years old if you stretch (maybe).

I go through phases where I love to cook and then ones where I hate it. I think it really has something to do with what I am going through at the time.

Cooking can be so fun. Even if you live alone, I think cooking is so good for you.

Reason number 1 is because it will make you proud of yourself. Even if you make something that is totally not good, be proud of yourself that you tried. After I finish cooking it makes me feel better about my day.

You learned that you don’t like that thing, or you just messed up making it. Either way, you learn something.

If you get bored with cooking, research different recipes. Cook something that you’ve never cooked before. Cook something that is out of your comfort zone. When we do things that make us uncomfortable, we learn so much about ourselves.

Cooking at home can also be so much cheaper than eating out. It is also so much better for you. SO, if you cook at home, you will end up saving money and feeling good physically and mentally.

Cooking is a win, you just have to push through that laziness that tells you to go pick up Chic-Fil-A.

Our bodies do so much for us and stretching is the least we can do.

Have people in your close circle that build you up and want the best for you. Seek friends that speak truth into your life. Find people who celebrate you. My small group threw me a surprise party and it was so sweet. No one has ever done that for me and I felt so loved.

If you just moved to a new place, this is such a fun opportunity for you. Hang out with as many people as you can to find your people. I have almost been here for a year and I still struggle in this area. You have to go to be patient and trust God.

Don’t seclude yourself, I’m really good at that and it’s not good. Secluding can hurt you more than anything. God intended us to have friends and a community that we can do things with.

If you are in a relationship and you only really want to hang out with that one person, stop having that mindset. Push yourself to hang out with people other than the person you are in a relationship with.

We need to have friends outside of our significant others.

Before I moved, I only wanted to hang out with Ethan, so that’s what I did. It hurt my relationship with my friends and it hurt his too.

Now, doing long distance we can grow friendships outside of each other and it has been such a sweet thing.

Having a community of trustworthy people will help you get through hard things. They will be there for you when your significant other hurts you. This will also lead you to enjoy life more, giving you a healthier mind. Having a community that is there for you makes you feel better, especially if you are struggling.

Having good friends will make you feel better than ever…hopefully. You gotta be careful when choosing your friends.

Seek community even if you are content with one person.
