]]>If you’re keen to take up a new hobby, find ways to try it out for free to see if it’s a good fit first. Find free community fitness classes, borrow equipment from a library or colleague, or do a skill-swap with a friend.
Find things you already have lying around the house before splashing out on new equipment. If you want to take up yoga, wear an old t-shirt and leggings and do YouTube led yoga sessions before heading out to Lululemon and buying a studio membership.
If you want to take up drawing or painting, use your kids’ art materials before investing in expensive new paints.
Once you have proven to yourself that you have committed yourself to your new hobby, it’s time to treat yourself to the materials you need to really get stuck in. However, be sure to research first what you really need, how to get the best deals, and whether you can get it second-hand. Maybe you can find a yoga mat on Facebook Marketplace, or a set of skis at a yard sale.

]]>Most people set goals that are too unrealistic and end up disappointed when they simply can’t accomplish them. The whole point of making New Year’s resolutions is to make some small improvements in your life and feel good about yourself, so make sure that your resolution are realistic.
A detailed plan can help you achieve your goals because it will keep you focused and more accountable. For example, if your goal is to exercise more next year, a fitness diary can help you organize your workouts and track your progress.
We all need help sometimes, and there’s no shame in asking for support from family and friends. Other people can help and motivate you to work hard on your resolutions, whether you decided to read a book, lose weight or quit smoking.

]]>Pressing the snooze button is actually a very bad habit that makes it harder for us to wake up in the morning. If you’re having trouble waking up and getting out of bed, try placing the alarm clock far away from the bed so you’ll have to get up as soon as it goes off.
Hydration is very important, especially after a long night of sleep. Drinking one glass of water as soon as you get out of bed in the morning can help your body wake up and you’ll start your day refreshed.
Some studies have shown that waking up to sunlight is much better for us because light tells our brains that it’s time to wake up. Not to mention it’s much more enjoyable to wake up and start your day in a light and inspiring room.
Working out is the best way to boost your energy levels, so it’s always a great idea to start your day with a short run, light exercises or yoga.

]]>You don’t need any equipment and you can simply put on your favorite tunes and wear your ugliest gym clothes in the comfort of your own home. Here are 5 great exercises for you to do at home and feel great after.
Stand straight with your legs a little wider than hip-width apart. You want to make sure your knees are in line with your toes when you go down. Squat down and then straighten to start position, squeezing your glutes at the top. Do 3 sets for 15 reps.
Stand with your feet together and then take one leg back behind you. Bend the back leg and go up and down on that leg holding the core and squeezing the glutes on each rep. Do 3 sets for 12 reps on each leg.
This exercise works on all of your body but mostly your core. Go down on to your elbows, on a comfortable surface, straighten your legs and flex the feet. Engage your abs and glutes and keep the back straight. Keep the plank for 30 seconds-1 minute.
This exercise can be done on your knees if you find it too difficult to do with straight legs. Make sure the core is engaged at all times and the hands are slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. Start in a straight arm plank then bend the elbows back, not out, and go down with the chest to the floor. Push up through the arms and chest to start position. Do 3 sets for 10-12 reps.
Lie flat on your back with your knees bent and the feet flat on the floor. Squeeze your glutes and bring the hips up and down in a controlled manner. Do 3 sets for 15 reps.

]]>The biggest and most obvious advantage of buying in bulk is that in most cases it can save you a lot of money. Most stores offer considerable discounts if you buy things in larger quantities, which means you can save tons of money on things you can store for a long time and use on a daily basis.
Bulk goods come with less packaging which means that you’re doing a good thing for our planet by reducing waste. Plus, these goods require less transportation and you’ll make fewer trips to the store, thus reducing your carbon footprint.
Having a bunch of toiletries and canned goods stored in your home means that you’re prepared for any kind of emergency. You’ll never again worry about surprise guests coming in unexpected moments of running out of ingredients when preparing lunch.
