Celebrate National Wellness Month: 7 Small Habits for a Healthier You

August is National Wellness Month—a time to pause, reflect, and recommit to your personal health and well-being. In the hustle of everyday life, it’s easy to put wellness on the back burner. But caring for your body and mind doesn’t have to mean big overhauls or intense routines.

Wellness is built through small, daily choices—like how you nourish your body, manage stress, move your muscles, and make time for rest. 

Below, we’re sharing 7 easy-to-follow wellness habits you can adopt this month—and how something as simple as adding a nutrient-rich drink like our Superfood Powder to your daily routine can make a difference in your wellness journey.

1. Start your morning strong

Wellness starts with how you begin your day. Whether you have 5 minutes or 30, creating a simple morning ritual can help you feel grounded and focused.

Try this:

• Do light stretching or a short walk

• Practice deep breathing or gratitude journaling

• Drink a full glass of water before coffee

• Enjoy a balanced breakfast with protein and fiber

Small moments of calm can set the tone for a more mindful, energetic day.

2. Focus on hydration throughout the day

Drinking enough water might seem basic, but it’s often overlooked. And dehydration can impact energy levels, digestion, and even your mood.

Simple hydration tips:

• Keep a refillable water bottle with you

• Add lemon, cucumber, or berries to make water tasty

• Set phone reminders if you forget to sip regularly

• Pair each meal with a glass of water

Bonus: Staying hydrated helps your body better absorb nutrients, too.

3. Move your body, your way

You don’t have to hit the gym for an hour to feel the benefits of movement. In fact, incorporating joyful, low-pressure movement into your day is often more sustainable.

Think small, consistent actions like:

• A 10-minute morning stretch

• A brisk walk after lunch

• Dancing to your favorite playlist

• Taking the stairs instead of the elevator

Remember, movement should feel good, not like a chore.

4. Nourish with whole foods (and fill the gaps)

What you eat plays a major role in how you feel. Whole, colorful foods provide essential nutrients that support immunity, brain function, and overall vitality. But even with the best intentions, many of us fall short, especially when life gets busy.

That’s where small changes can help.

Our Superfood Powder is a delicious daily drink mix made from a clinically researched blend made from 30 fruits, berries, and vegetables, plus plant-based vitamins and phytonutrients. It’s a quick and easy way to add extra key nutrients to your day—no prep required.

Available in convenient stick packs, you can mix it into water, smoothies, or even yogurt. It’s a simple step toward a more balanced, nutrient-rich lifestyle.

5. Set boundaries to protect your energy

Wellness isn’t just physical—it’s also emotional and mental. Learning to say "no" (or "not right now") can protect your time and energy, reduce burnout, and help you stay present in the moments that matter.

Practice these healthy boundaries:

• Block off breaks in your calendar

• Limit work emails after hours

• Schedule screen-free time each day

• Give yourself permission to rest

6. Prioritize sleep (like, really prioritize It)

Rest is essential for repair, mental clarity, immune strength, and even metabolism. If your sleep schedule has slipped, now’s a great time to reset.

For better sleep, practice better sleep hygiene:

• Aim for 7–9 hours per night

• Create a relaxing wind-down routine

• Keep your bedroom cool and dark

• Limit screens and caffeine before bed

7. Celebrate progress, not perfection

Wellness isn’t about doing everything perfectly—it’s about showing up for yourself, consistently and compassionately. Whether you’re drinking more water, moving more often, or trying a new product to support your nutrition, every effort counts.

Reflect on your progress this month:

• What small habit have you added or improved?

• How do you feel compared to a month ago?

• What would you like to keep doing going forward?

Use National Wellness Month as a starting point, not a finish line.
