My kids are back-to-school today. As a former academic, I absolutely love back-to-school time to reframe and reset my goals.
I really need to take some time to focus on myself this year. While we’ve had wonderful fun exploring Alaska and spending time on Cape Cod, we’ve also had some family stress to work through this summer.
Even if you’re not riding the struggle bus with me right now, healthy eating may have taken a back seat to summer vacation, back-to-school madness, and the fact your subconscious knows that January 1st was a really long time ago.
But have no fear!
This is the perfect time of year for a healthy eating reboot, leaving the fun (but not-so healthy) treats of summertime behind.
If you (like me) need help getting back to your healthy habits again, the folks at Ultimate Bundles have teamed up with Katie from WellnessMama.com to offer a free 7-day Healthy Eating Reboot Challenge.
I think it’s such a great idea that I want to share it with all of my Running on Balance readers.
Here’s how it works:
You register for the free challenge, which runs for 7 days (August 24-30).
Each day, you’ll get a motivational email, along with a mini-challenge. Think of it as your fun homework—way better than doing spelling words and math facts!
Most days include a free printable to make completing the challenge even easier. Having something to hold you accountable, where you can visually see your progress, is one of the keys to sticking to a jumpstart program like this.
By the end of the challenge, you’ll have:
- An organized, healthier pantry(you might be surprised at some of the things Wellness Mama calls unhealthy)
- Ideas to make everyday lunches a no-brainer(and super healthy, too!)
- Tips to make healthy meal prep faster and easierthan ever (as well as some secret weapons no mom should be without)
- A stress-free meal planso you can transition into your September schedule with ease
- Plus, so much more!
You can complete each challenge in just 20 minutes or less each day, but I think you’ll be surprised by how much progress you’ll make over the week. I’m looking forward to having some guidance myself!
I’ll be updating my experience with the Healthy Eating Reboot day-by-day in my Facebook Group Well Balanced Women. If you need extra support during the 7-day Healthy Eating Reboot Challenge, make sure you’re part of this awesome community of health and wellness seekers. Join us today!
