Put SPF on your Ears

Dab a bit on your eyes while you're lathering up your face (hopefully everyday!) Nonmelanoma skin cancer that can be detected on ears has been found to be more aggressive. Tumors can grow deeper and larger than those appearing on the face. They aren’t deadly but can result in muscle and nerve damage. It can difficult to spot potential changes that would indicate skin cancer.

Instead of trying Tumeric in your smoothie this morning, throw some coriander in yours. Coriander seeds come from cilantro seed and contain a blend of oils that help calm your gut. They can help relieve bloating symptoms. You only need a quarter of a teaspoon in a single-serve smoothie.

Start something new

Consider your goals and ask yourself what one small step could you take to move closer to your end goal? Getting started is the hardest part but using that first step can be a springboard to a larger and more repetitive habit.

Floss, Floss, Floss

We get it, no one feels like flossing at the end of the day. But flossing along with brushing twice a day and going to your dentist at least twice a year is essential for removing bacteria to stay gum disease-free and keeping your teeth healthy, according to the American Dental Association. From a study in 2011 on older adults who never flossed - many of them had 30% higher risk of dying during the study than those who flossed daily.

Pause for 25 Seconds

Sometimes we think we’re hungry but often we’re just bored or stressed. Wait 25 seconds next time before you each that chocolate or pretzels. According to preliminary research from Rush University in Chicago.

Planks!

This fundamental fitness move targets your abs and lower back and can help you avoid injury. By strengthening your core, you provide more stability to your spine. Start with a 20-second plank hold and work up to a minute.

Stretch Today

Try downward dog pose (from Yoga) to stretch out if you’re feeling stressed. It’s a great full-body stretch to help you rest.

Check the bowl

After you go number one or two, give a little glance—your pee and poop can tell you a lot about your health. If your urine looks dark yellow that’s a signal to drink more water - the ideal is pee that is very light yellow or even better, clear. Pinkish or reddish pee can indicate you have a UTI or other health issue. See your doctor right away!

Take clues from your poo, too. Hard stool can be a sign of constipation - get at least 25 grams of fiber per day from fruits, vegetables and whole grains. If your bowels are watery or loose, this could be IBS or black stools can indicate GI bleeding. See your doctor right away if you notice any of these symptoms.
