Binge A TV Marathon

To some, it is a hallowed tradition to spend January weekends on the couch, watching TV and recovering from the "holiday cheer". Many channels have helpfully enabled this with daylong (or week-long) marathons of classic shows: Syfy usually hosts a Twilight Zone bonanza each December; WPIX often shows The Honeymooners; and BBC America sometimes does a days-long Dr. Who binge. If that doesn't suit your tastes, well, you can always watch shows on Amazon PRIME VIDEO. Since you and your family will be spending more time indoors... Now is the perfect time.

Resolution
Better Life Suggestion:

Get Cracking on That Resolution

You've vowed to stay motivated and eat healthy. To eat out less and cook easy meals at home. To take time to meditate or get organized or practice gratitude. Whatever you've chosen as your New Year's Resolution, if you take time out to do tackle it on January 1, you can boast that you have a perfect streak of doing whatever it is for 2021. And if you haven't picked one yet? Well, there's still time to be inspired.

Be sure to start your workout plan, start a new daily routine, like going for morning walks etc... Or take a 30 day challange of "no alcohol", "no junk food" etc.

As far as the meal planning and healthy eating goes, here is a small tip... Staying satisfied is key and healthy snacking will go a long way in helping you achieve that caloric deficit you need to lose the extra weight.

Amazing Healthy Snack: Air-Popped Popcorn!

Air-popped popcorn is, arguably, the purest, most user-controlled and most cost-effective way to make popcorn. It allows snackers to pop their own kernels and have full control over what ingredients go into the bowl, providing a healthier, low-calorie snack.

Popcorn kernels by themselves are actually a VERY healthy, fun snack. You can litterally eat LOADS & LOADS of it! Sadly, it’s the common addition of chemicals and artificial flavors (such as that butter flavor found in store-bought popcorn) that make this otherwise healthy snack a caloric trap.

Fortunately we have a choice! There is an easy way to avoid these harmful additives: by buying your own corn-kernels and popping your own popcorn. You can find cheap, corn-kernels in most grocery stores, usually in the snack, grain or bulk aisle.

Popping Instructions:

1. Pour in the bag ½ – ¾ cup of popcorn kernels.

2. Flip over the top edge of the bag.

3. Place flat in microwave with fold at the top for 2 ½ – 4 minutes on high

4. Simple, easy, filling and 100% healthy!..

Eco-Friendly
Better Life Suggestion:

Live A More Eco-Friendly Lifestyle

While disposable products may be a more convenient option when it comes to removing our make up, for the sake of the environment - and our skin - reusable facial cleansing cloths are a far better option than their less eco-friendly counterparts. Plus, they’re a far more cost-effective option in the long-run.

Face Pads

Ideal For a Plastic-Free Kitchen and If you pack your own lunch every day. If you're always adding "cling wrap" to your grocery list and throwing used plastic baggies in the trash. Definetly not the most environmentally friendly option. These beeswax wraps can be a viable solution. The pliable covers fold up around foods and cover bowls of leftovers. Rinse clean with cold water and mild soap and you can reuse them time and time again.
