Too cold to exercise outside? Don’t let that be an excuse to not get up and get moving inside!
It’s hard to stay motivated when it’s cold outside and you haven’t seen the sun for few days. Believe me – I know! I’m not afraid to say that I’m a sucker for a good movie, my snuggly blanket and comfy couch on those cold winter nights.

So you’ve decided to start eating healthy this year, but have no idea where to start.
Honestly speaking, you may even be a little discouraged at the thought. Fruits and vegetables….ugh! Rest assured healthy eating does not have to be overwhelming or boring.
The first thing to remember is to start small. “Rome wasn’t built in a day.” Lasting lifestyle changes are most effective when done in small steps. For example, try incorporating or replacing one snack each day with a fruit or vegetable.
Welcome to the first Healthe Habits for Living (HHL) posting offering helpful hints and quick insights on how to become a healthier version of you.
"Hello, I’m Christine Schroeder, MOT, OTR/L, Occupational Therapist and Director of the HHL program, located at Ellerbrock Spine and Soft Tissue (ESST) in Bluffton."
