We hope that health and wellness is often top of mind when it comes to your daily routine, but we know how hard that can be with busy lives, children, and just trying to find time to yourself. So why not let your handy device (which we know goes EVERYWHERE with you) do some of the work in keeping your health and wellness goals on track? And while you’re cutting carbs, and doing at-home yoga, keep in mind that acupuncture is also a great add-on to the everyday work you’re doing to keep healthy. And it doesn’t have to be done everyday! A few sessions a year can boost the effectiveness of your health routine.
Take a look at 5 apps for your mobile device that we love and you may just enjoy!
Sleep Cycle – This alarm clock uses the accelerometer in your iPhone to monitor your movement to determine your sleep phases and wake you at the best time. Getting enough sleep is crucial to a healthy lifestyle. If you’re having trouble getting those 7-8 hours, this app might be for you.
WellnessFX – Review your results. Peruse your practitioner recommendations. Create and keep track of your results. Take control of your health with WellnessFX by adding new goals to help develop and maintain healthy habits. If you’re looking to manage your overall health and not just weight loss goals, this is a great app to think about.
Pocket Yoga – A yoga instructor in the palm of your hand! Choose between different practices, different durations and different difficulty levels. Whatever your skill level and time availability there’s something for you. Pocket Yoga adjusts to your needs and is perfect when you can’t leave the house.
Mindfulness App – The Mindfulness App helps you to reduce stress and increase wellbeing. Scientific research proves that regular practice for 20 minutes a day brings desired effects. Even if you’ve only got 10 minutes, find that time in your day to get a little zen.
Sworkit – No gym? No time? No problem! Sworkit is designed with busy people in mind with high-intensity bodyweight workouts that you can make as short as five minutes and as long as an hour. Choose the style of exercise you’re looking for (strength, cardio, yoga, or stretching) and discover dozens of different workouts—or go ahead and use the app to create a custom workout. Every workout set is super easy to follow with high-quality videos and a countdown clock of the number of reps you have left. How fun does this sound!?
