I’m just getting back from a very long, restful vacation to Thailand! I have quite a few pictures and video highlights from my Instagram stories for you to watch. What an insanely beautiful county I was so blessed to visit with my family. If you’re interested in a travel post about that, let me know in the comments below!

Coming back after being gone for half a month, I was able to gain a new perspective on my life, house, and habits. Now I’m going to implement these small changes in my life to detox my daily life, and give me the healthy, stress-free lifestyle I want and deserve.

Detox Plan

Journal – I’m in no way a huge journal fan. However, I do have a lovely book I want to write two things (quick and easy) that I’m grateful for every day. No particular time to do this, life is crazy in the mornings with school and kids, but it just needs to be done before I go to bed. What do I hope this will do for me? Well, The Latin root, gratus, implies pleasure or something pleasing. So, to be grateful is to be full of pleasure. A positive attitude is always a good thing!
Drink More Water – I know I’ve said and probably you too have said, “I need to drink more water” at least a dozen times in life, but I have a plan now! Lemons!! I love to drink flavored water, so the house will not be without lemons for my water. Working from home, I’m able to have a pitcher of flavored water that I premake in the morning. By the end of the day, the glass pitcher should be empty. Benefits include more energy, skin hydration,(Fewer wrinkles yay!) weight management, headache prevention, boosting the immune system, and more, all from drinking more water! BONUS: lemon has detox properties for your liver!
Clean Out The Hidden Spaces – Having older kids, I do not have to deal with toys exploding all over the house, I did my time! So, my house is relatively tidy most of the time. However, the closets, pantry, drawers, and cabinets drive me crazy if not cleaned out and organized. Usually, this gets a fresh start when you move, but we have been in the same house for 12 years, and they all need some attention! Purging more unneeded items it at the top of my list. Read how to declutter your closet, and you’ll be motivated to do the same!

And that’s it. Starting with those three things, then when they are a part of my daily life I’ll add more.

Do you have any habits you want to commit to for a healthy happier life?
