Spring is in the air – finally! Many of us are stocking up on cleaning supplies as the “spring cleaning bug” has bitten. Even though I live in a year-round-warm climate, this time of year always has me cleaning out cupboards and closets and planning a yard sale. But it’s not just our homes that need that annual thorough clean-out; it’s our bodies as well! After the Thanksgiving turkey, Christmas ham and goodies, New Year’s parties, Valentine’s Day chocolate, St. Patty’s Day celebrations, and then Easter, our bodies NEED a tune up! Here’s some great ways to spring clean your health!
- Clean out your kitchen! Ok, I know I’m stating the obvious here, and I’m not actually referring to scrubbing down the fridge and cupboards. I mean clean out the junk! Those Easter peanut butter eggs you stashed for later, maybe some Valentine’s chocolates hidden away for a rainy day, or goodness, maybe there’s even some leftover Halloween candy lurking if you look hard enough. Get rid of it! Toss it! If it’s GONE, you won’t eat it!
- Replace the junk with healthy snacks. So now you feel really good about tossing the bad stuff, but suddenly you hear that “rumbly in your tumbly”, as Winnie the Pooh would say. You know how easy it would be to make a quick run to Krispy Kreme. So avoid setting yourself up for failure by going ahead and stocking that freshly scrubbed pantry and fridge with healthy snacks. Fruit, raw nuts and seeds, veggies cut up with hummus, cacao nibs, Greek yogurt, protein powder and frozen fruit for quick smoothies, and any other favorite healthy snacks you may have.
- Find a partner to spring clean your health with! Accountability is one of the biggest factors in determining your success or failure in making healthy lifestyle changes. Finding a friend or family member to help keep you on track can make all the difference!
- Consider joining one of our Challenge Groups – we have a new group starting the beginning of each month. These group members will challenge and motivate you like never before! By committing to a workout program and Shakeology for 30 days, you’ll be on the perfect track to perfectly spring clean your health!
- Commit to the Ultimate Reset! Want to take your spring cleaning to a whole new level? Then the Ultimate Reset is for you! What is it? It’s the ultimate cleanse and detox to remove toxins from your system that have built up over time. I first gave this a try last spring and was amazed at the results! In just 21 days I lost 10 lbs, lowered my cholesterol, triglycerides, and sugar levels, and felt amazing! Our family learned a whole new way of eating, which we have continued to this day an entire year later. We’re looking forward to spring cleaning again in just a few weeks as we’ll be starting another round of the Ultimate Reset in April. Join us!
