One Up Your Health with Nature Made
In case you haven’t noticed, it is already March! Have those New Year’s resolutions that you made on January 1st been long forgotten, or are you pushing through those tough spots? I am trying to take it one day at a time and look at little accomplishments as a big deal. If I’m not careful, I can look at a far off goal and think that it is just too hard to reach. I find that if I make goals that are easier to achieve, I feel great when I accomplish them.
Write down those little goals
Don’t you love crossing things off of lists? I know I do! Sometimes I’ll even write something down AFTER I did it, just so that I can cross it off! If you hang out at my blog much, you know that I see a counselor for grief and depression. She is a big believer in lists, and she always asks me if I’m keeping up with them. Sometimes I am, sometimes I’m not. Putting “make a list” on my list can even be something for me to cross off! She says to put something productive, something creative and something relaxing or good for your health on your lists. If you end up with just three things on your list, it’s all good.
Something productive, something creative, and something relaxing
Take a minute to think about everything you do in a day. What would be on your list? Mine would always include laundry, so that can be my productive thing for the day. I usually have dishes to unload and load too, so that goes on my list. If I’m feeling extra productive, I’ll even add vacuuming to my list!
My creative side usually comes out through something like writing which is why I love blogging. I have participated in National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) for 3 years with my daughter. It’s a blast and definitely gets my creative side going.
We know that relaxing and taking care of our health daily is important, so put it on your list! Taking Nature Made vitamins can go on your list. Nature Made vitamins play a critical role in a balanced lifestyle. Even when you’re having a rough day, that is one thing you can add to your daily regimen to get you on the right path. How about writing down, “Walk for 5 minutes.”? That’s something we can all do even on a bad day. Do some yoga or gentle stretching. Dance to some awesome eighties tunes… Just get your body moving!
Write down those little accomplishments
Another great list to make is one of your accomplishments for the day. Get a little journal and keep track of all the good you did that day.
- Took my Nature Made B-12 today
- Ate a bowl of cereal and blueberries for breakfast instead of that leftover cold pizza calling my name
- Had some grapes instead of eating a row of cookies
- Walked an extra 10 minutes
- Remembered to do the stretches the chiropractor told me to do
- Didn’t get stressed out at the fact that my son has 12 coats out on the dining room chair
- Washed, dried, folded AND put the laundry away in the same day
You get the picture. Seeing your accomplishments in writing are a huge boost! You can look back on them when you’re having an off day and say, “Hey, look at all I did on this day. It’s okay if I went for the pizza today. I didn’t do it these 5 other times.” It is all about balance, and Nature Made understands this.

I have heard great things about the power of B12, so I think I Might start taking it daily! Thanks for the great information!
I’m sure we could all benefit from this!
I’ve been doing a lot of walking lately. It’s my favorite exercise. I was just telling my daughter that I needed to start taking a B-12 Supplement. Nature Made is my fave so I’ll pick up some B-12 next time I’m out and about.
That is my favorite exercise too, but it’s been so dreary out lately!
I love that “make a list” is on your list. I make lists of lists and when I remember to look at them and/or find them, they’re really useful!
This year I’m focusing on being the healthiest me that I can be and drinking water and ensuring that I have all the vitamins I need are an important part of meeting my goals. Thanks for sharing your journey with us.
Besos Sarah.
At least I know I can cross off one thing! I drink tons of water too. It’s so good for you.
B12 seems to be one of the vitamins everyone needs to take. Good to know why and how it works.
Yes, I think we definitely all seem to be lacking it.
A fellow list maker.. Helllllo! You should see my desk it’s a mix of planners and lists .. that never get fully done LOL. I’ve heard great things about B-12 and should add that to my daily vitamins!
LOL I feel you! We’ve got good intentions!
I’m starting a regular exercise schedule to get back into shape. I love crossing things off lists, it’s pure joy.
Yes, it sure is! Good job with the routine!
I need a LIST! But I don’t put on there take your vitamins- ugh need too! Since I always forget, thanks for the reminder. I entered the Sweepstakes too. You listed some awesome tips and thank you for sharing. B-12 is something I need.
Thanks
You’re welcome! Good luck in the sweepstakes and take those vitamins!
I love Nature Made vitamins. I use their brand for all of my supplements. I take an iron, B12, and a multivitamin on a daily basis.
I think I need iron too. Hopefully my last bloodwork will show my doctor if I do!
Vitamins are so important to your overall health and well-being. Nature Made is a brand of vitamins I use regularly.
Yes, they are, and Nature Made is a great brand!
Yes! I love to make lists and write EVERYTHING down that I need to do, just so I can cross it off and feel as though I’ve accomplished something.
My daughter was just diagnosed with a B12 deficiency, so she needs to be taking this vitamin. Thanks for the info.
The thing that keeps me healthy is walking a mile a day on my treadmill. If I don’t do it, I don’t feel well.
It does make me feel better to cross stuff off! Walking is really the best exercise! I think lots of us are really lacking in B12! It seems more and more common.
For my health I am trying to make it to the gym more often. I know that medicine is good but I do better when I am exercising regularly.
Exercising is great for your mood and health!
I take B12 almost every day. It gives me that mid-day boost to keep myself going through the rest of the work day.
That is great!
A few months ago, I was prescribed mega doses of vitamin B-12. I went to see my doctor because of numbness, tingling and pain in my legs and hands. Diabetic Neuropathy was the one that was causing these symptoms. After a week of taking Vitamin B-12, the pain was gone, the numbness diminished. Vitamin B-12 supplements work really good!
That is awesome how much it helped you. My sister is diabetic, and sometimes has those symptoms as well.
The doctor suggested I start taking a good number of vitamins years ago after surgery. It’s great to hear that you’re pleased with your results and find it making a difference.
Thanks!
My husband and I have been pretty consistent at taking our vitamins. I don’t think we really need them, but we take the gummies so it feels like a snack.
LOL good idea!
I’ve been taking Nature Made products for a couple of years. I love everything about them and I’m debating on adding another one to the three I take daily.
I love this brand of vitamins.
I love Nature Made vitamins. I always take their mutlivitamin and probiotics. It’s a simple step that makes a big difference in one’s overall health and well-being.
I agree. THose little steps really count.
When I started taking B12, it made a huge difference in my every day. Plus, this brand is always so consistent!
That’s great to hear! Yes, they definitely are a great brand.
I love crossing things off my list too. I have got to pick up some B-12 vitamins.
It gives you such a sense of accomplishment!
I love Nature Made vitamins, especially the B12! Can’t live without. I take a higher dose to keep me alive!
That’s great!
I used to take B-12 after my son was born because i really needed that extra boost of energy. I need to start taking them again! LOL
Yes, for sure!
