As most of you reading know, I’ve been on a journey to wellness for a while now. My mission in life is live the best life I can and to help others do the same. When I think about it, it truly does start with me. If you’re not taking care of yourself, how in the world can you take care of others or do good for others. As a busy mom running two side businesses from home, life can be overwhelming at times, but it’s all about your attitude and how you take care of yourself.
For the past two weeks, I completed the Activia Two-Week Challenge to help support my digestive health, and it was such a nice complement to my breakfast and as an afternoon snack. It’s a probiotic daily yogurt, and it is so good! In the morning, I would have it with my coffee before getting my mom shuffle on for the day, and in the afternoon, I loved having it as a snack.
On the little bottle itself, it says that consuming twice a day for two weeks may help reduce the frequency of minor digestive discomfort. And it worked for me!
Along with taking care of myself physically, I’ve really been trying to take care of myself mentally and spiritually. Life is such a precious journey, and I never ever take that for granted. The more I got to thinking about it, I rounded up my favorite 25 ways to live a happier life every single day.
