For this reason, it is an important time to learn the importance of a healthy lifestyle and practice self-care and stress management. Whether you&#8217;re a volunteer or the executive director of a nonprofit, the old adage is true, &#8220;health is wealth.&#8221; Start investing in your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.grantwatch.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GrantWatch <\/a>values health and wellness. To celebrate this month, we&#8217;ve put together a list of things you can do to improve your health. In addition, we&#8217;ve included some grants for your health and wellness programs. Check out our list, and feel free to share your favorite healthy habit with us in the comments! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Some Ways to Celebrate National Wellness Month<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>1. <strong>Drink more water<\/strong>. Hydration is one of the key steps to improving health. Drinking enough water is critical to your bodily functions and can also improve skin and decrease headaches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. <strong>Improve your sleep schedule.<\/strong> Many Americans don&#8217;t get enough high-quality sleep. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), almost 1\/3rd of Americans get less than 7 hours of sleep per night. Sleep supports essential functions like digestion and focus. Work on building a nighttime routine.  Set yourself up to get to bed earlier, reduce caffeine intake, and make your bedroom a comfortable space. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. <strong>Develop an exercise routine.<\/strong> For the month of August, try to get 30-60 mins of exercise every day. This could be walking, running, weight lifting, yoga, rock climbing, or taking a dance class. Don&#8217;t overthink it.  Just do what works for you and your schedule. Studies indicate that the benefits of regular exercise include: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Optimizing bone health <\/li><li>Improving overall mood <\/li><li>Weight control <\/li><li>Improving focus abilities throughout the day <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">4. <strong>Take some time to review your diet<\/strong>. We&#8217;re all so busy, and we get busier all the time. Getting the right combination of vitamins and minerals is vital, so this might be a good time to check-in. Are you eating enough protein? Enough fruits and vegetables? Take some time to chat with your doctor about what your diet should include.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/nutrition\/resources-publications\/benefits-of-healthy-eating.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">handy infographic<\/a> from the CDC on why a healthy diet is so critical. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As we said, health is wealth.
