he 2020 pandemic has created unprecedented anxiety, blurred the boundaries between work and home life, intensified parenting responsibilities, and raised questions about how people will return to the lives they previously led. For many people, the need to embrace wellness has become a necessity, and although there is much we can’t control, focusing on what we can control—diet, sleep, and our physical surroundings—is the key to successfully navigating our lives while uncertainty abounds.

A healthy diet, positive sleep habits, and organization are closely interrelated:

  • A healthy diet is critical to proper sleep habits. 
  • A good night of sleep is critical to eating well.
  • In order to implement a healthy diet and sleep schedule, time management and uncluttering physical spaces is critical.

  • Eat at consistent times throughout the day.
  • Identify your hunger level before and after meals.
