Sharing some of my favorite low-effort wellness habits that actually make a difference, because not everything has to be expensive or complicated. \"\ud83d\ude09\"\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Hi friends! How are you? I hope that you had a wonderful weekend! Ours was a busy one, but a great one. We managed to get in our first date night in a long time (the best!!) and had fun hanging out with the kids and pups. This week I have client calls, business mentorship calls<\/a>, and am working on my IHP<\/a> centurion modules.<\/p>\n

For today\u2019s post, I wanted to share some of my favorite low-effort wellness habits. To be honest, I love all of the gadgets and fun routines, but the reality is that a lot of them aren\u2019t realistic for busy lives or tight budgets. The best health hacks in life truly are free<\/strong>, so I\u2019m sharing some of my go-tos today with some of the fun *extras* at the end of this post.<\/p>\n

(Please keep in mind none of this is medical advice)<\/p>\n

Low-Effort Wellness Habits That Actually Make a Difference<\/h2>\n

Morning light.<\/h3>\n

Morning light makes a huge impact on energy and circadian rhythm. It tells your body, \u201cHey, it\u2019s morning!\u201d so that it can go on to produce melatonin at the correct time. Light in the morning = better sleep at night<\/p>\n

Walking.<\/h3>\n

Walking is one of the top three things you can do for your health. I like to walk at least once a day, whether it\u2019s walking Maisey (I can\u2019t wait to walk Lola soon), strolling on my walking pad, or walking around Target or the mall with the crew. It\u2019s great for overall movement and function, sleep, glucose control, core stability, so many things.<\/p>\n

Simple supplements.<\/h3>\n

You do NOT have to take a boatload of supplements to have amazing results. The best supplements are ones that were recommended specific for you after functional testing, but here is the baseline I like: Daily Nutritional Support<\/a>, Omega-3s<\/a>, Vitamin D,<\/a> and Magnesium<\/a>. That\u2019s it. (EquiLife<\/a> has these cool starter stacks now!)<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Sleep routines.<\/h3>\n

Sleep is free, and if you can get it, take it! It can be hard to make sleep a priority, especially if you\u2019re a parent and nighttime is your only quiet time. I try to remind myself that doomscrolling is stealing my sleep, so I shut it down, read a book and try to get as much as I can. My sleep tips are all in this post!<\/p>\n

Nervous system resets.<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s easy to underestimate the impact that nervous system support has on overall health. You can\u2019t heal in flight or fight, so if you\u2019re an anxious and stressed person (like me lol), here are some things that can help: meditation, box breathing, journaling, time with friends, eating outside, time to do NOTHING (I tell a lot of clients to watch a mindless TV show they enjoy), time outside, hiking, yoga\/stretching, etc.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

(Coffee +\u00a0Emily in Paris<\/em>)<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for *extras* here are some that I think are genuinely worth it:<\/p>\n

Magnesium. SO many people are deficient in magnesium, especially because we burn through it when we\u2019re stressed. This is my favorite one.<\/a><\/p>\n

Red light.<\/a> This one it a little pricey but you can use FITNESSISTA for a huge discount and it\u2019s like the Swiss Army knife of wellness devices.<\/p>\n

Electrolytes. These are inexpsneive and can help replenish the spark plugs of our cells. I recently switched to Trace eletrolytes from Thrive Market<\/a> and love the taste and ingredients.<\/p>\n

Blue light blockers. These are my go-tos.<\/a><\/p>\n

EquiLife detox.<\/a> I do this four times a year and always feel amazing afterwards. If you\u2019d like to join in our community detox, get your kit here<\/a> and then send me an email (gina@fitnessista.com subject DETOX). We have a round starting February 2.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for more, my top biohacking products are in this post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You don\u2019t have to go wild with gadgets and supplements to have a balanced routine. The best strategies are the ones that work for your budget and life. This is the foundation I build every client on before adding anything more advanced.<\/p>\n

So tell me, friends: what are some of your favorite low-effort wellness habits?<\/p>\n
