Top Wellness Influencers on the Daily Health Habit Changes That Have Had the Biggest Impact

From trying to eat a clean diet to sneaking in time for a workout, catering to your mental health, and finding time for self care, the idea of striving to “be healthy” can be completely overwhelming. But making one small change can have a massive impact in how you feel, think and operate. Just ask these wellness influencers who have found that implementing simple practices into their days sparked absolutely life-changing results:

Establishing a morning routine. “As a mom of two little ones, early mornings can feel chaotic. From being startled out of bed at the crack of dawn to hangry toddlers that need food yesterday, it can feel like the opposite of Zen. Recently I started doing some prep in the evening (like setting the kids’ clothes out, getting breakfast foods ready, and going to bed by 10 p.m.), and also giving myself 10 to 15 minutes of quiet time before starting the day. The new routine has had such a positive impact on our mornings and now I look forward to them more than ever.” —Angela Liddon, president and founder of vegan blog Oh She Glows

Fuel for function! “As soon as I realized my body needed fuel to function and work to its optimal best, my relationship with food began to change. I found that when I fed my body a healthy breakfast within 30 minutes of waking up that consisted of protein, healthy carbs and fats my body started to see results. I dropped 6% body fat in 6 weeks after implementing drinking a healthy smoothie first thing and eating regularly throughout the day. I have now been able to maintain these results for the last 6 years. Not only do I feel full through the day, my mood is sustained, and I am also looking after my body by giving it all the nutrients that it needs to be healthy. —Rebecca Louise, celebrity fitness trainer and founder of BURN

Starting my day with a stress-fighting plan. “Every morning I take the opportunity to sit quietly and journal a few thoughts or feelings before the day begins. Doing this has helped me check in with my emotional and physical state in a way that brings me a deeper sense of awareness to my health and well-being. Since doing this, I’ve been able to keep my stress levels down and manage my anxiety in a way where I have better control of it. It’s a super simple habit, but it’s made an incredible impact on how I show up in life for myself and my family.” – Joanne Encarnacion, health + life coach, editor: GOFITJO.com
