Improve Your Mind, Body And Heart In 25 Minutes Or Less

Tell someone how much you appreciate them and why, then wait for the magic to happen. You both will get a mood boost, which inspires more positivity and better self-care during the holidays. When you feel better, you’re more likely to set and stick to goals, from sleep to eating and exercise goals.

Go ahead and give thanks, hugs and kisses to those who mean the most to you. Looking for a new read? Try Janice Kaplan’s book “The Gratitude Diaries,” which details her one-year journey to live gratefully.

What Matters Most?

It’s the experiences we share with the people we love that bring meaning to our life, not things. Time is the most precious gift, and it can’t be bought. A meaningful life with flashes of joy you create is often an overlooked ingredient of health and happiness. As you gather together during the holidays, think of what each person in your life means to you. Share what matters most to you this holiday season by using the hashtag #whatmattersmost.
