This month is a reminder that it is important to take care of yourself.

It’s easy to put health and wellness on the backburner, and research has shown self-care can help increase happiness by up to 71% when we manage our stress and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Here are some easy things to do this month (and onward) to boost your self care habits:

  1. Increasing your water intake.
  2. Adding more fruits and veggies to your meals.
  3. Monitoring your sleep and making adjustments for better sleep habits
  4. Joining a yoga, walking, or aerobics class.
  5. Learning to meditate.
