Dress for Health! Creative Ways to Make Wellness a Habit By Colleen Langenfeld
|
How about...
- Pants and shirt. These clothing basics are good reminders of the foundations in your fitness life. Habits such as good nutrition, regular exercise, and plenty of rest will support your healthful lifestyle for the long-term.
- Shoes. This vital piece of clothing keeps you moving forward just like motivation does in your wellness wardrobe. Figure out what motivates you and 'put it on' each day. It could be working towards a special reward, going over your goals' list, or simply listening to an inspirational audiotape.
- Coat We wear coats to help protect us from the elements and likewise we need the healthy protection of common sense and safety guidelines in our lives. Good habits like helmets and seat belts fit in this category.
- Hat Just as hats protect our head, so we also need intellectual and emotional protection. The power of knowledge and wisdom cannot be overestimated in our quest to stay healthy.
As the saying goes, the best defense is a good offense and a regular fueling of positive, growth-oriented material into our brains will go a long ways towards making us more accurate thinkers and emotionally fit.
- Accessories These wardrobe items function to assist and comfort us, such as a warm pair of gloves or a protecting pair of sunglasses. They also jazz up our outfits and help pull together our ensemble, like a fun new tie or a striking, elegant pin.
Likewise, we need similar fitness related items to help us feel good about our efforts and keep our enthusiasm high. Maybe it's an occasional new workout tape to keep our exercise routine fresh or the weekly new recipe to keep our nutrition and motivation topnotch.
- Purse/Wallet Purses and wallets contain all of the personalized, customized stuff we need in our everyday worlds. Our wellness world needs such a tool, also. For example, do you need to sleep in late once a week?
Then make sure it happens. Maybe your whole day goes better when you start with a quiet reading time or prayer. Then do that for yourself.
Figure out what helps you go the distance and incorporate those things into your regular wellness life.
- Tight clothes and spike heels! These can be fun once in awhile, but can also really get in our way. Likewise, we need to eliminate the obstacles in our fitness path that hold us back from being as free as we want to be.
Whether it's smoking, a high-fat/low-energy diet, or too many unnecessary toxic chemicals in our environment, these habits are the straitjackets preventing us from accomplishing our wellness goals.
So when you dress for success, dress for wellness, too. Then your healthy habits can reward you with the healthy lifestyle you've been looking for!
