Start taking a vitamin D supplement
We get most of our Vitamin D from the sun. ☀️ Since we passed most of our time indoors during fall seasons and winter, our intake decreases when the weather is colder. The supplements of vitamin D can improve your mood and your immune system. 👌
Get your flu shot
Avoid all the annoying side effects of having a cold or flu. No more coughing, sniffing and sneezing. 👊 This way you can avoid the symptoms of the flu, which are: muscle aches, fever, cough and cold. Although this illness lasts only a few days, it can be very annoying and can affect you on your way to losing weight.
Make some plans for the cold months
During colder weather, we are more likely to stay indoors and become less social. Plan ahead and try to keep your schedule full. 📖
Moisturizes your skin
Extreme temperatures can dry out the skin. Also, just because it’s cold, doesn’t mean you can take off your sunscreen. If the sun is out, it is best to apply sunscreen to protect your skin. 😉 The best time to apply them is after a shower. And even if your gel is moisturizing, you should also use a lotion or body milk.
Buy seasonal fruits and vegetables
Beets, broccoli, cabbage, squash, apples, pears, and grapes are all perfect for these months. 🤩
Do a deep cleaning in your house
Organize your closet and kitchen cabinets, throw away or give away things you no longer use, clean the windows, and tidy up the garage. 💪 In addition, having your home clean causes less risk of a sick family due to bacteria or dust. A clean house reduces the risk of illness in your family, gives more peace of mind and they can feel free in their environment.
Be kind to yourself
Cold weather and the holiday season can cause weight gain, shorter days can cause low mood, and flu season can cause illness. listen to your body and give it what it needs. Try to reframe thoughts negatives into positives.
