Wellness Tips
A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP The holidays can be fun but also a busy time. We tend to stay up later and attend more social activities. This is the opposite of what nature suggests we do. Winter is about slowing down, hibernating, and having more introspection.

Fitness Tips
FIT IN 15 A 15-minute workout is better than a 0-minute workout. Try this circuit: 30 seconds each • 15 seconds rest between exercises • 2 to 3 sets Squats Push-ups Jumping Jacks Plank
Try using a meditation app to settle the mind and body after holiday celebrations. Using apps like Calm or Headspace can help you relax, so deep sleep comes easier, and you wake up refreshed and energized.

Gina Frank Group Exercise Instructor EVERYTHING IN MODERATION Give yourself the gift of holiday indulgences but do it mindfully. Be considerate of yourself!
Jessica Taylorson Personal Coach and Group Exercise Instructor BRING YOUR "A" GAME Poor range of motion and mobility can take away from your swing. Flexibility will allow you to perform your swing smoother and permit you to unlock parts of your body. Hips, lower back, and shoulders are key trigger areas that tend to be tight and lack the proper range of motion. All of which can be strengthened and worked on. Before beginning your range warm-up, take an iron and lift it above your head with both hands-on opposite ends of the club. Begin to rotate side to side to free up and loosen up your hips. Mike Horn Personal Coach
Make the room a comfortable temperature, avoid electronics 20 minutes before bed, and get enough movement throughout the day.
Plan your splurge on holiday appetizers, desserts, cocktails but be sure you fed your body nutritiously that day and hydrate with water! You will wake up the following day guilt-free and ready to resume your regular fitness and eating activities. Dolores Aaronson Group Exercise Instructor Bring a healthier side dish such as fresh veggies or salad if you are going to a party. You can also eat something before getting there, so you don't overeat. Just say "no" to food guilt and "yes" to the enjoyment and satisfaction of your well-being. Vanessa O'Brey Health, Wellness, & Life Coach and Group Exercise Instructor
