Realistic Rituals

Why They Matter-How They Can Help

We’ve come to understand & appreciate how vital it is to mark & celebrate the milestones that matter to us. From birthdays & graduations to anniversaries & holidays, acknowledging events that are important to us is the very hallmark of feeling accomplished & grateful.

Harnessing the same concept is a great tool in your kit as you create new habits & routines, transitioning to a healthier lifestyle. It’s one of the ideas we’ll be exploring, not only in next Thursday’s podcast, on the PJ Wellness Show, but also in our new year’s course-”28 Days To A Healthier You”.

Just as you feel confident & happy when you’ve celebrated an important event, so you can recapture that feeling of accomplishment in your everyday lifestyle by creating rituals tailored to celebrate your healthier lifestyle routines & achievements.

Using the same accoutrements you would for any celebration, begin to establish habits that mark the healthy milestones you want to achieve, & celebrate your success when you have mastered them.

For example: You’d like to walk every night after dinner, to get some exercise, burn some calories & wind down from the day. Try putting an inviting lamp in the window, or an electric candle, that you turn on to signal the beginning of the event.
