Get to know your preferences

✨ Corie’s Blog | FIT TIPS ✨

What do I prefer? If I could do and have exactly what I wanted, what would it be? What would life look like?

I just recently learned that I prefer melons over berries in the morning. Weird but true.

So maybe you’re melons instead of berries like me.

Or maybe you’re yoga instead of weight training.

We have tons of choices in life…

Which choices do you vibe with?

Whatever your preferences, get to know them – be real and honest.

Only then can we start to make small changes in our day to day that keep us inspired and motivated to keep getting after it.

Lifestyle by design: Asking more questions.

Bad posture? Engage your shoulders

✨ Corie’s Blog | FIT TIPS ✨

Do you have rounded shoulders or text neck? Practice better posture by engaging your shoulders!

You can engage your shoulders anywhere at any time.

Simply think, “shoulders back, chest out, chin in.” Pretend you’re holding something between your shoulders blades.

Another way to practice good posture is to help strengthen your shoulders by doing backward arm circles. Rep out and get your shoulders burning. Or by simple lifting your arms straight up feeling the burn.

Remember, if you have bad posture you can most likely fix it with a few daily exercises done a few minutes here and there.

It’s when we neglect a weakened area does it become worse.

Keep moving my friends!

Have a bike? Ride to get fresh groceries

✨ Corie’s Blog | FIT TIPS ✨

What’s a FUN, health conscious thing you could do today? Ride your bike to get fresh groceries 🙂

I’m blessed to have a grocery store and produce shop right down the road…

And I can use my bike to get there!

Exercise, sunshine, snacks, nooo car needed.

If you do have a bike at home, are you taking advantage of it or letting a great way to work your heart and mind slip through the cracks?


PS – omg y’all! This is my 100th post on the blog😭 my 2022 personal goal was to post 100 healthy living blogs and weee got it done!

My writing consistency was looking a little rocky in the beginning of the year (weekly/biweekly blogs) but with picking up the daily snippet goal recently – I’ve accomplished my goal well ahead of schedule.

Always and forever grateful. Feeling blessed. Appreciating the good times. Learning and adjusting along the way. Working on doing what I said I’ll do.

Stay blessed my friends!
