5 Tips to get back into the routine after the holidays

We welcome September, the month of getting back into the routine and getting down to work on new goals. Summer is a time to disconnect, change our habits and enjoy ourselves without limits. We gain energy from sun exposure, take advantage of the longer days and dedicate time to leisure. Now it's time to return to reality, one that doesn't have to be, under any circumstances, monotonous and boring. You decide how to live and as long as you follow a healthy lifestyle you can do so with greater quality. Today we give you 5 tips to get back into your routine successfully and without drama. Go for it!

If there is one thing that this “new normal” has not taught us, it is that we are capable of adapting to circumstances and still making the most of every day without excuses. From training at home to creating new healthy recipes, to enjoying every moment, no matter how insignificant it may seem. With these new lessons learned, it is time to return to the routine that is so characteristic of the month of September. We set new challenges, we outline ways to meet them and, once achieved, only the most important thing is left: to be aware and disciplined, without excuses, to become the best version of ourselves. Remember, the best time to take the first step is NOW. Do not hesitate, do not be afraid, do not let fear paralyze you. Beginnings are sometimes difficult, but they open up a huge range of new experiences and sensations before you. If you have a dream, a goal to achieve or a project to undertake, do not hesitate, it is time to act!

5 Tips to get back into the routine after the holidays

Plan your days

Planning is the basis for success. Lack of organisation makes us believe that we don't have time to complete all our tasks during the day. The perfect excuse for not doing what we have to do! However, a schedule can be a turning point. Now, just as you start a new routine, is the perfect time to do it with a solid foundation. You will notice that you have time for everything. Plan your schedule and try to make it as complete as possible (work, studies, training, meals, leisure, rest...). The more complete it is, the less chance of unforeseen events.

Short-term goals

It's all well and good to dream of big goals. However, setting smaller, short-term goals can be a great idea to keep your motivation up . When the goal is too far away, we run the risk of getting tired or losing motivation along the way. Set that ambitious goal, but don't forget to also highlight the small stops that will take you there. Step by step, with more subtle challenges, you will achieve everything you want to be, in any aspect of life.

Diet, your fuel to get back to the routine

Stop seeing your diet as an obligation riddled with restrictions. Unless your goal is exceptional and requires very specific and restrictive guidelines, a diet should not make you hungry or cause anxiety. Build a healthy relationship with food, one that gives you everything you need to perform and keeps you energized to give it your all day after day. But also, one that is attractive to you and offers you a multitude of varied and fun options to add color to your routine.

Adaptive training

You could be working hard and giving it your all, but still not achieving your specific goals. To do this, it is important that when you get back into your routine you create a plan tailored to your needs and goals. If you do not have the basic knowledge to achieve this, a good idea is to have a personal trainer for a while to guide you. He or she will teach you the basics so that you can become more and more independent. With a few small changes in your training you can see incredible results. Do not be discouraged and make the changes that will bring you closer to your best version.

Rest and peace of mind

When you return to your routine, it is very important that you give rest the priority it deserves. Stress and an overload of obligations often make it impossible to achieve our goals. Feeling overwhelmed and saturated will only create barriers between us and our dreams. Those who work hard get results, yes. But those who know how to balance activity with rest will not only get what they want, but will also enjoy the process. Let returning to your routine be a new opportunity for you and an exciting path full of ups and downs, so necessary for learning. Remember, above all, to make a good attitude your star tool.
