If you spend some time online, you can find out about different fitness trends that are popular in the new year. These may help you get motivated for exercising more often or even for eating healthier on a more regular basis. For some extra ideas on how to be healthier, here are some tips.
Do Yoga
Try heading 15 minutes or more of yoga into your daily routine.

Go get his fairly easy to do, and you can take it at your own pace. You don’t even have to go to a yoga studio, as you can find plenty of free yoga videos to follow online.
Meditate
Yoga is kind of a meditation and it’s off, but you may want to take some time out for a guided meditation, depending on your day. First of all start off each day with a short meditative., like 5 or 10 minutes when you wake up in the morning, and which you just sit in silence and clear your mind and let your soul feel free. If you’re having an extra stressful day, just want to visualize a better future, or you want to make some other kind of changes in your life, you can find guided meditations online that will help you do this.
Find Daily Fitness
While yoga is an excellent workout, you need to get cardio too. This gets your heart rate up, which is good for lung and heart health. Plus it will release endorphins in your brain which will make you happier and give you more energy.
Keep A Journal
Start a journal, making entries in it on a daily basis, or even more than once a day. You could write in it anything you want from your fitness routine that day, to how stressful a day you had at work, or even how great of a day you had, and how a stranger complimented you and it made you smile. Not only does journaling help you boost your memory and your mood, but it’s also just a great way to work through problems that you may be having.
Eat Your Vegetables
Last, but surely not least, make sure you’re eating your vegetables. Get vegetables of different colors on a daily basis to ensure that you’re getting all of the vitamins and nutrients your body and mind need to be super-healthy. Eat them for snacks, and them to every meal, and find ways to enjoy them so that you will get plenty of them each and every day.
