09: New Year Reset The Trimester Bubble

    • 代替療法

It’s never too late to make great changes! 

On this episode of The Trimester Bubble, Dr. Katherine talks about her “back to basics” tips for the new year. Start small, make commitments you can stick to, and before you know it, you’ll be on your way to a year full of great sleep, balanced meals, and attainable exercise. 

Sleep

We often see patients in our office who are feeling the aches and pains of a poor night’s sleep. Set yourself up for success by:


Turning off electronics an hour before bed


Stop snacking a couple hours before bed


Take a hot shower or bath in the evening


Clear your bedroom from extra distractions



Diet and Nutrition

Rather than focusing on taking food away from your plate, focus on the ratio of food on your plate. Aim for:


Fruit and/or veggies on half your plate


Whole grains on a quarter of your plate


Protein on a quarter of your plate



Steer clear of fried and processed foods as much as possible, and try out prepping your meals for the week on Sunday or Monday to make healthy weekday meals easier. 

Exercise

Move your body every day! If structured exercise sounds inaccessible, try out:


Walking for 20 minutes a day


Taking a weight lifting class at your local gym


Playing pickleball with friends


Gardening


Try a yoga for beginners class



In this episode you’ll hear about:


What sleep does for your mind and body


Meal prepping


Balanced portions


How much water to drink each day


The two main types of exercise


Weekly exercise goals (and how to make it super accessible)


What exercise does for your mind and body
