Summer is now in our rear view mirror and fall has arrived. School is well underway, vacations are a distant memory, and the summer sun has given way to an autumn chill. As the temperatures drop, you may find yourself spending less time outside and more time in the warmer confines of your home. This year, don’t let living a healthy lifestyle fall victim to the colder weather and shorter days. Whether it’s continuing your summer diet or starting one now, here are some helpful tips:
- Work while you watch: Fall is loaded with premieres of new television shows. Instead of sitting down, be active while you’re watching. From walking or running on the treadmill to doing exercises with resistance bands, make your TV time a calorie-burning event.
- Enjoy seasonal crops: Autumn brings a crop of seasonal, healthy foods. Winter squash, pumpkin, cranberries, and parsnips are all in season and can be found at your local grocery store of farmer’s market.
- Get outside and enjoy the foliage: Fall brings cooler temperatures and crisper air, but dress appropriately and you’ll find being active outside can be more comfortable than it is during the sweltering summer months. Try biking, hiking, or going for a walk to enjoy and enjoy the weather.
If there were things that you did in the summer
that worked for you, carry them over to the fall. However, you can also
use the season change as an opportunity to try new things and start
anew!
