Consider These

A bonus post for today. I wanted to share these tips that Amy W., a Wellness Coordinator at my employer shared today. 

Some things you might want to consider, or not…. Don’t overthink it

1. Floss. You know this one already.
2. Sell or donate your microwave. You’d be shocked how much healthier you eat when you must clean a pan after every meal.
3. Apologize if you were wrong.
4. Read books.
5. Drink chamomile tea. It’s good for nearly every part of your body. Drink some calming, honey-laden tea and think for a second.
6. Check your credit score. If you have a credit card or student loans, you need to check your credit score. I know it’s scary, but unlike your Netflix membership, it’s free and important.
7. Meet your neighbors. That way you won’t have to feel awkward when you are both out front avoiding eye contact.
8. Stop pretending you’re not on your cell phone that much. We all look at them way too much. Look up, you might like what you see.
9. Leave 15 minutes early for everything.
10. Get a physical and go to the dentist. Stop using Listerine/Neosporin/Cranberry Juice etc. to cure that infection.
11. Go to bed at a p.m. hour. Watch both a sunset and a sunrise.
12. Listen to a whole album. The digital sales market has returned music to the singles-centric model that worked in the 50s and 60s, but even then, the best work was the full vision of an artist.
13. Write something every day. Doesn’t matter if it’s a rant against your roommate or the philosophical ponderings brought on by an episode of  your favorite television show.
14. Learn this: They’re over there in their English class.
15. Finally, remember we all have 24 hours every day to do with what we will.
