February Wellness Goals

January helps you ease back into routines, but February is when new habits really start to stick. With the holidays behind us, it’s easier to focus on what matters. Setting goals for yourself can help you stay on track and feel your best.


Steps

  • You don’t need to aim for a huge number—just pick a goal that gets you moving each day. Go for a walk outside when the weather is nice, use a treadmill if it's cold, and find small ways to add more steps:

    • Park farther away

    • Take the stairs

    • 10-minute walk breaks

  • Moving your body is one of the simplest ways to boost your mood, so make it a priority.

Protein Target

  • You'll feel better when you eat enough protein, especially if you're working out. You don't have to track every gram—just being mindful can make a difference:

    • eggs or Greek yogurt in the morning

    • chicken, turkey, or salmon for lunches/dinners

    • snacks like cottage cheese, protein bites, or smoothies

  • It helps keep you full and energized, especially for an afternoon crash.


Bedtime

  • It's easy to spend winter nights scrolling on your phone, and we've all done it.

  • Aim for a consistent bedtime. It doesn't have to be perfect, but try to get to bed at a regular time.

  • Some habits to try:

    • phone away 30 minutes before bed

    • skincare + warm drink

    • reading a few pages instead of TikTok

    • keeping your sheets clean and cozy

  • Getting good sleep can make a big difference.

Habit Tracker

  • Turn these goals into daily habits. Try tracking them each day, or ask a friend to help you stay accountable. Here are some ways you can keep track:

    • printed tracker

    • habit tracking apps

    • calendar method: put an X on the days you complete all your goals!

    • weekly checklist

    • timers and reminders

February is a short month, so it's a great time to focus on small habits that really make a difference. You don't need to change everything at once—just stick with goals that help you feel stronger, happier, and more balanced. Here's to steady habits, good energy, and a happy February.


Be well, Auburn.
