2016 FITNESS & WELLNESS GOALS.

This post was sponsored by Nature Made^® as a part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central.

It is only mid February so it isn’t too late to set goals for 2016. This year I am really focusing on simplifying my life and making sure that I am taking care of myself. Fitness and Wellness are my big focus this year. I think that in order to be a good momma, I need to really take care of myself and make sure that I am in my best health and shape. I wanted to share some of my big focuses with you and hopefully inspire you to maybe make some of these your goals.

My first goal is to spend more time with friends. As a mom, I often find myself putting everyone else on the back burner so I can be with King all the time. This is good, but I also feel it is important to have relationships outside of family. Whenever I find myself spending time with friends and others, I am happier. Simple as that. 

Second, I want to make sure that I am taking my vitamins every day. I am not a big milk or dairy person so taking Calcium is a big thing for me. I also have been told to take an Iron supplement because of low Iron levels. Low iron levels can make you feel tired and I have found using this supplement has helped me to be more on my ‘A’ game and to be more energized in the day. I love that I can find my Nature Made vitamins at my local Walmart while I am grocery shopping. My other favorite thing about Nature Made is that they have an amazing Daily Boost program that you can sign up for. Every other week they send you information that will help you to feel great. I love their information because it is simple, but it makes big changes in the way that I feel. I also love that the emails come every other week so it doesn’t give me a ton of emails to go through when I am looking for the information. You can sign up to get the Nature Made Daily Boost emails here. I love that when I take my vitamin supplements it helps me to feel great and help me to achieve my other wellness and fitness goals. I also love using Nature Made Vitamins and Supplements because they are the nations #1 best selling brand for vitamins, minerals, and supplements.* I have used them for a long time and have always loved them, and their brand is always #1 recommended to me by my Pharmacist in 9 different categories.**  

Third, my goal is to take care of my skin better. I have a goal to wash my face every night and to make sure that I am exfoliating my skin once a week. This helps me to feel my best, take care of myself the best that I can, and take a little bit of time for me. 

My fourth goal is to make sure that I am taking time to be a mom, and not a distracted mom. King deserves one on one attention and I want to make sure that I am giving that to him. I don’t want any other distractions like my phone, emails, etc. I want to make sure that I am fully engaged with him and letting him know that I love him by giving him attention. 

My fifth and last goal I want to share is that I am going to work out every day and then give myself time to relax for a little bit. I often find that first off when I work out I feel so much better, but second, that I keep myself so busy all the time that I don’t take a second to take a deep breath and relax. I am striving to give myself 15-30 minutes every day to breath, relax, and have a little guilty pleasure whether it be a treat, watching a show, or taking a bath. Taking time for myself is something really important to me.
