Are you concerned about maintaining your health this winter, but are feeling overwhelmed or don’t know where to start? If so, check out these 3 tips for staying fit during the holidays.
1. Make sure you’re getting enough sleep
3. Don’t skip meals
With everything that goes on during December and January, it’s understandable to search for more time in the day. Sacrificing your sleep, however, will end up doing you more harm than good. Sleep is how the body recovers and recharges. Poor sleeping habits are linked to an increased risk of heart disease, reduced cognition, and mood shifts. Aim to get 7-8 hours a night, every night.
With big Christmas lunches and dinners to look forward to, it can sometimes be tempting to eat less food during the day to save room for later. However, this can actually encourage you to make less healthy choices and have an unbalanced diet. Eating one big meal a day can also increase your blood pressure and cholesterol. Instead, try to eat regular meals with servings of lean protein, fruits, and vegetables.
