I have to work a 12-hour shift today, and I am looking for the perfect way to relax once I get home. I have to stand all day so don't make it anything that involves using my legs.
user
No problem! For your relaxation routine tonight after work, I recommend a hot bubble bath with mineral salts. Hot baths with magnesium salts are proven to relax sore muscles and can also aid in the recovery process for minor injuries like sprains. To make it extra relaxing, turn off the lights, light a few candles, and play your favorite type of music. You could also listen to spa music or nature sounds!

This Sunday, I want to do an at-home yoga retreat. Can you suggest some of the activities I should fill my day with besides yoga?
user
Sure! For your at-home yoga retreat, I recommend periods of meditation, reflection via journaling, drinking lots of water, eating an unprocessed diet, listening to calming soundtracks, and avoiding socializing with others. These are similar to the activities that typically occur during in-person yoga and meditation retreats. You should also make efforts to avoid unhealthy habits on this day.

I want to create some type of visual tracker to motivate me to do my daily exercise routine. I want it to be cute. What do you suggest?
user
You could create a chart for your exercise routine that has one blank box for each day you intend to practice. When you complete the practice for that day, place a sticker in the box. This is an easy way to keep track of your progress in a visual format, and hanging it in a place you see it often can keep you motivated to avoid skipping days.

How do I incorporate more fruits and vegetables into my diet? I want to get at least five servings daily.
user
To get five servings of fruits and vegetables per day, it is a good idea to incorporate at least one serving per meal when you eat three meals a day. Start planning easy and tasty side dishes for your dinners and veggie-focused lunches. Remember, there are options for eating vegetables that aren't raw salads. Consider having roasted vegetables like zucchini instead of roasted potatoes for dinner. Juices and smoothies are also underrated options for consuming your fruits and vegetables. One half-cup of orange juice (4 US fl. oz.) is equal to one serving of fruit. This means you can knock out two servings of fruit with just one cup of OJ in the morning.
