Stay Hydrated

You might think you are drinking enough, but chances are you could benefit from a few more glasses of water a day. Keep a water bottle near you wherever you go to remind yourself to stay hydrated. Loading up on water is an easy wellness hack that keeps you satisfied between meals, improves your skin, aids digestion, and more. An additional Health Hack – Squeeze some lemon in your water to help flush the toxins out.

Sit up Straight

Are you slouching in your chair? Health hacks: Pull yourself up and reach up towards the sky. Straightening your back and correcting your posture helps you feel stronger and prevent tension. Get up, stretch and reposition yourself to reduce aches and help you get more focused.

Walk While you talk

On the phone? Move around and turn those phone calls into short workout sessions. Just moving your body more will improve your physical fitness. If you have a fitness tracker, aim for 10,000 steps a day. Getting steps outside is even better; it reduces stress, and you get to soak up some sun.

Take a Break Outside

A breath of fresh air and stillness can do a lot of good for your mental health. When you are getting overwhelmed, stop yourself and get outdoors to be close to nature for a few minutes. Take a few deep breaths and reset. You will feel calmer and focused when you get back to the task.

Chew Gum for More Brain Power

Chewing stimulates the trigeminal nerve, which stimulates part of the brain responsible for alertness. Health hack: chewing gum increases heart rate and sends more blood to the brain for about 15-20 minutes, which actually enhances our ability to think. People who chew gum report significant improvement in their focus and increased productivity at work.

Self Love and Positive Thinking

The power of your thoughts impacts all of our decision-making and how we feel. Own your wellness not just physically but mentally. Build your self-confidence with positive self-talk. 

Health Hacks

1. Start each day looking in the mirror and saying a few self-affirmations.
2. Praise yourself with phrases like “I am strong,” “I am getting better everyday” “I have it within myself to achieve my dreams,” “I deserve to be happy”, “I am the source of my joy”, are a few examples.
3. Customize your self-affirmations to fit your unique needs for each new day.

Busy schedules, stressful days, and sleepless nights happen to everyone. When you’re short on time, these daily health hacks can help you stay focused on what matters: your personal well-being.
