But let’s not overcomplicate things. This year, we’re keeping it simple with five easy habits to help you thrive—physically, mentally, and spiritually.

1. Begin Your Day with God

Before diving into texts, emails, or social media, take a moment to check in with God. Say a quick prayer, whisper some gratitude, or just sit in stillness. It’s like giving your day a holy reset button—because starting with Him changes everything.

2. Drink More Water

Hydration is underrated, but trust me, your body (and skin) will thank you. Keep a bottle handy and sip throughout the day. And while you’re at it, let John 4:14 be your reminder: “Whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst.” Stay hydrated—physically and spiritually.

3. Move Your Body

No need to hit the gym if that’s not your vibe. A 10-minute walk, stretching, or even dancing around your room counts. Bonus points if you throw on a worship playlist and turn it into a praise session. Movement isn’t just for fitness—it’s for joy.

4. Rest Intentionally

Listen, burnout isn’t cute. Make sleep a priority (7-8 hours is the goal), and permit yourself to pause during the day. Trust God with your to-do list—He’s got you (Psalm 127:2). Rest isn’t lazy, it’s necessary.

5. Eat Whole Foods

This isn’t about dieting, it’s about nourishing your body with the good stuff. Think more fruits, veggies, and whole grains. And when you eat, take a second to enjoy your meal and thank God for His provision. Mindful eating, but make it spiritual.

Make Wellness About Faith

Small, intentional steps lead to real transformation. This year, let’s honor God by taking care of the bodies He gave us—without stress, pressure, or perfectionism.
