No need to plan to run a marathon, though if you do that is great! Healthy habits can start with small changes. We have all been there, we start our days with big intentions, we hit the ground running and then get sidetracked, even stressed out. It can seem overwhelming and that just adds to the stress. The good news is that making a few small changes to your day can have a major impact on your health for the better. Understanding how powerful and personal our control center is (i.e. our brains) can really help select those things that contribute to our whole health. It is not complicated, in fact it quite simple. Let’s discuss ways to maximize our potential in easy everyday ways.

Studies have shown that healthy employees – physically and mentality – are more likely to perform well and be more productive than sick, unhealthy employees!
