"What have you done for YOU lately? Oooh oooh oooh yeah..."

I've got a new challenge for you to take on this month. The idea/theme came from the fact that Feb is known to be the month of LOVE & also because I've had Janet Jackson's "What have you done for me lately" song stuck in my head for over a week now. Go on and watch my video & commit to giving yourself lots of lovin' this month.

Not quite sure how to show yourself some love? Here are lots of ideas:

• Sleeping earlier (give your adrenals their beauty sleep)
• Mindfully eating
• Buying better quality food
• Ditch your fad diet, especially if it's giving you more stress than health benefits
• Get in touch with nature
• Floss your teeth
• Getting more physical activity but in a way that you'll enjoy like dancing or playing with the Kinect, which I LOVE!
• Take on less responsiblities - outsource/delegate
• Schedule 10 mins a day to just do NOTHING
• Engage in hobbies that you enjoy
• Connect more with good friends
• Draw, paint, write - tap into your creative side
• Deep breathing exercises (great for de-stressing)
• Give & receive hugs
• Stretching exercises in the AM
• Avoid watching the news before going to bed
• Gratitude journal
• Forgive yourself & others
• Create a "happy songs" playlist & listen to it while getting ready for work
• Paint your nails
• Take a bath
• Watch a funny movie/show
• Light a candle & snuggle with your loved one
• Read more books & watch less TV
