Here are some more tips for making your home a place that supports your healthy living resolutions:
Clear out a space for your workouts - If you have a small home, a dedicated corner will do. Even if you belong to a gym, this gives you a "no excuses" option when bad weather and other obstacles arise. All you need is a mat and some hand weights. Make this space off-limits for other activities.
Make your bedroom your sanctuary - You need 7-9 hours of quality sleep each night, so keep the television, computer, and hand-held electronic devices elsewhere. Buy cozy linens and comforters for your bed. Make sure you keep the room cool, dark, and quiet -- black out shades or curtains and a white noise machine can be helpful.
