Top Things I’m Doing This January to Elevate My Health

If 2025 left you tired, inflamed, or craving sugar — you might want to do these too.

January isn’t about perfection or extremes. For me, it’s about resetting what’s been holding me back and supporting the systems that keep me well. What follows is exactly what I’m focusing on this month — with intention, simplicity, and sustainability.

1) I’m Removing Interference Before Adding More

Before starting new habits, workouts, or supplements, I’m clearing what’s been creating “noise” in my system:

  • Stress

  • Poor sleep

  • Blood sugar swings

  • Excess sugar & alcohol

Less interference = better results from everything that comes after.

2) I’m Supporting My Body’s Natural Detox Systems

Detox isn’t about deprivation — it’s about restoring flow through your organs of elimination. This month I’m focusing on:

  • Reducing alcohol & processed foods

  • Increasing hydration (water + minerals)

  • Supporting daily bowel movements

  • Completing a gentle, structured detox

When detox pathways are supported, energy, digestion, and inflammation often improve naturally.

3) I’m Prioritizing Blood Sugar Stability

Blood sugar affects energy, mood, cravings, hormones, and inflammation, so I’m giving it extra intentional attention:

  • Eating protein at every meal

  • Avoiding skipped meals

  • Reducing refined carbohydrates

  • Limiting late-night eating

Stable blood sugar makes the body feel safe, and healing happens more easily when the body isn’t constantly reacting.

4) I’m Adjusting Sugar Based on What My Body Needs

Not all sugar is the same — and not everyone’s approach needs to be extreme. This month I’m personally:

  • Eliminating added sugars short term

  • Keeping sugars limited to small amounts of natural sources (like fruit), always paired with protein

This is not about restriction. It’s about choosing the right level of sugar for my physiology right now.

5) I’m Moving My Body in a Way That Supports It

Instead of pushing harder, I’m focusing on movement that supports circulation, metabolism, and the nervous system:

  • Daily walking

  • Strength training a few times per week

  • Consistency over intensity

Smart, sustainable movement boosts lymphatic flow and helps regulate blood sugar — especially important in winter.

6) I’m Treating Sleep & Stress-Reduction as Non-Negotiables

Rest and recovery aren’t optional — they’re the foundation of every other goal. This month I’m focused on:

  • Consistent sleep + wake times

  • Morning light exposure

  • Reducing screens at night

  • A calming evening routine

Your body repairs most when you sleep — nothing else replaces it.

7) I’m Keeping January Simple

I’m not trying to overhaul my life — I’m re-establishing a healthy baseline that I can carry forward:

  • Fewer goals

  • Clear priorities

  • Consistency over intensity

January is about momentum — not burnout.

Final Thoughts

I’m not doing everything “right” — I’m doing what’s right for my body right now. If any of this resonates with you, pick one thing to start with. Better health isn’t about perfection — it’s about direction.

If this approach resonates, I’d love for you to join me in my January Detox.

This is a 21-day, structured reset designed to help support:

  • Loss of excess pounds (many see up to 15 lbs in 21 days)

  • Reduced inflammation and bloating

  • Clearer thinking and less brain fog

  • Naturally improved energy levels

It’s the most effective way I know to support your body’s detox pathways, stabilize blood sugar, and reset your health without extremes.
