Wellness Tip of the Week

Find a routine

Finding a daily routine that works well for you can be a great way to alleviate stress and anxiety, even if you have a busy schedule. Creating predictable moments throughout a chaotic day allows you to have some stability and regularity by eliminating the number of decisions that you need to make.

Routines can mean taking a walk or hitting the gym in the morning or preparing your lunch the night before. It could mean setting up a recurring appointment on your calendar to clean your house or choosing a consistent day of the week to tackle the mountain of laundry.

But remember to be easy on yourself when it comes to building these routines. According to WebMD, “…failing to follow your routine for one day doesn’t mean you’re off-track. If you let yourself take a day off, it can be easier to return to your routine than if you think of any break in your routine as a failure.”
