THE BEST HEALTH & WELLNESS APPS FOR YOUR APPLE WATCH (OR PHONE!)

Cute Apple Watch Bands by popular San Francisco fashion blog, Just Add Glam: image of a woman wearing a Apple watch with a gold band.

As a newer Apple Watch user, I’ve been discovering new apps for wellness and health that I have been absolutely loving. I’ve found myself becoming more accountable and tracking my lifestyle right from my wrist, so there’s definitely less room for excuses. From water drinking reminders to a minute of breathing focus every hour, I’ve found some of the greatest apps to help you crush those New Year goals. Check out my personal holy grail of wellness apps below!

Activity Circles App

The activity app that comes with the watch is great for staying accountable throughout the day. This app sends you encouraging messages every few hours to remind you to stand up, move around, and exercise. There are daily and monthly challenges to complete that win you awards and badges. I always feel so accomplished when all three of my rings are closed by the end of a busy day.

My Water & Drink Reminder

Drinking water throughout the day is so important for your body, which is why I’m obsessed with this water app. The app calculates your daily water intake and sends you reminders to drink more often. The water app also allows you to win awards for your daily water intake and offers great tips about water. If you’re interested in why I’m so passionate about drinking enough water, check out my blog on why I drink 100oz of water a day. 

Zero – Fasting Tracker

Intermittent fasting is a great way to improve your health. The zero fasting app is the world’s most popular fasting app and is amazing for tips on intermittent fasting for your personal needs. I do OMAD (one meal a day) fasting for weight loss and other health benefits. OMAD is a 4 hour eating period with a 20 hour fasting period. Use this app to find the right fasting method for you. 

Breathe

The breathe app is amazing for reminding you to focus on your breathing patterns. As the busy mama I am, it’s so easy for me to forget to relax and be mindful of my breathing. This app encourages me to set aside a few minutes each day to have my “me time” while focusing on regular breathing.

Pocket Yoga

Yoga is one of the best exercises to stretch out your body and find your inner zen. I love that the pocket yoga app has so many different flows, yoga, guided audio, and visual instructions to choose from. The app logs your yoga workouts to track your progress and also connects to the activity app to track exercise and calorie count.

Calm

The calm app offers guided meditations and stretching, breathing exercises, mindful movement sessions, and more! I honestly love this app because it reminds me how much meditation can improve my mood. I think we could all benefit from this app right now.

Gratitude Happiness Journal

This is your on-the-go gratitude journal! During the day, simply tell the app how you’re feeling and it sends you uplifting quotes for motivation. It seems so simple, but I find so much joy in getting these inspirational quotes throughout the day and I really think you will too. 

Cardiogram

Managing a steady heart rate is so much more important than we realize, which is why I really value this free heart rate tracker. Cardiogram shows you how well your heart is working over time. The app uses the data it finds to tell you how your heart reacts to different foods, exercises, and more.

I waited to share putting my 2023 vision board tog I waited to share putting my 2023 vision board together until late January because there it’s so much buzz around the new year and goal setting around the start of the new year…but how about waiting until the buzz around it starts to fade? I’ve been committed since 12/31/2022 but if you need some fresh inspiration for 2023…here you go!

Last year I made a digital vision board in Canva with about 8 vague photos and I never looked at it. This year, I got a huge poster board and nearly 100 very specific images of the things I want. VERY specific. In the short 3 weeks having this propped up in my office and seeing it each day, I’m already seeing the needle moving on these items! 

Have you created a vision board or set goals for 2023? What doe is mean to you? How are you achieving your goals this year? #goalsetting #visionboard

Porch pirates no more! I’m ordering some great s Porch pirates no more! I’m ordering some great stuff for hosting and gifting this year and the last thing I need is it walking off my front porch. This season, to make sure my new silverware and champagne flutes make it to my holiday table for hosting, I’m having all of my Amazon orders delivered to my garage thanks to my @myQconnect Smart Garage Control and @AmazonKey. It’s awesome to be able to watch my delivery live from the myQ app when I’m not home to make sure my packages are secure and locked up when it’s all done. Cheers!

#AirbnbPartner One of the things that gives me the #AirbnbPartner One of the things that gives me the most joy is creating beautiful spaces that I get to share with others! SWIPE for before and afters!

I love the design process of coming up with a design in my mind and working to make it a reality for a beautiful escape to share. One question we get a lot is “how can I find a place of my own and get started hosting?” Thanks to @airbnb I’m excited to share that @airbnb is introducing opportunities for renters through Airbnb-friendly apartments. You can break into hosting by renting an Airbnb-friendly apartment where you can live full-time and host part-time. I love how this creates financial opportunity for those who rent to start their hosting journey in an easy-to-start way!
