4 Healthy and Active Family Resolutions to Set For 2019
One of the best things you can do for your family is encourage them to work on their fitness and health this upcoming year. In fact, being physically active and eating well has been shown to have many benefits, including the fact that it:
- Promotes disease prevention
- Helps you achieve weight loss
- Reduces stress levels
- Results in improved school/work performance
Here are some easy and simple family resolutions to help you implement healthy habits for yourself and your family in the new year:
1. Take it Outside
Did you know that spending time outside can have a huge positive impact on your health? In fact, being outdoors has many benefits and can help:
- Increase your energy levels
- Elevate your mood
- Advance motor skills
- Lower stress levels
- Promote sleep
Tip: This year, why not make it a point to go outside more frequently and do activities such as a family walk, an outdoor workout, or playing in the park. Try to aim for at least one outdoor family activity per week.
2. Reduce Screen Time
Moving more and spending less time sitting is key to staying healthy and achieving your weight loss goals, which is why it’s important to limit activities such as watching TV, playing video games, and browsing the internet.
Tip: In 2019, consider setting limits on the amount of TV and tablet time your kids (and you) have. By sticking to 30 minutes - 1 hour of screen time a day, you’ll be setting a good example for your kids and encouraging the whole family to be more healthy.
3. Plan Adventures
One of the best ways to encourage your family to stay more healthy, and enjoy it, is by planning a few adventures, such as:
- Going on a camping trip
- Taking a short hike to a picnic spot
- Planting a garden
- Doing an outdoor scavenger hunt.
Tip: To get the whole family involved, take turns letting your family members choose the adventures.
4. Cook Together
In 2019, why not consider cooking as a family at least once a week? Getting your children involved in mealtime can encourage them to try new foods and develop healthier eating habits.
Share the work
Sometimes letting your kids help with meal preparation means more work, but getting them involved can get them excited to eat and has lifelong health benefits. Give them age-appropriate tasks, such as:
- Measuring ingredients
- Pushing the slow cooker button
- Setting the timer
- Setting the table
