While the health benefits of exercise are hard to deny, staying motivated can be challenging, even when you know that it can lead to better sleep, cognitive performance, weight management, and a lower risk for certain chronic conditions and diseases. To stay the course, try to focus on the things and people that matter to you most.

From eye masks to meditation tools, these top picks are designed to help you rest, restore, and find tranquility.
At the start of the year, many of us set resolutions to improve our exercise, eating, and sleep habits. But, as January faded into the distance, so did a number of our promises. Understandably, overbooked schedules frequently make self-care fall by the wayside. Often, it feels like just another thing to tick off your to-do list.
Still, if we take the time to refresh and restore, w...

Sleep is a vital part of life as it helps our bodies to restore, recuperate, and regenerate. It impacts various aspects of our health, including cognition, weight and stress management, and immune system function.

Although the general recommendation is that adults get seven to nine hours of shut-eye a night, as we age, we tend to produce less of the sleep-regulating hormone melatonin, which can make it more difficult to rest.

Your melatonin levels typically begin declining in the late teenage...

Navigating the food aisles takes work, given the many options available to satisfy various palates. And while we all want to make the right choices, busy schedules as well as budget constraints can influence what you pop into your grocery cart. With this in mind, we carefully selected items for Health's 2023 Food Awards. Our focus was on products that can be conveniently found at your local supermarket or through a food subscription service, offering healthier alternatives that are also relat...

Queen Latifah wants to uplift small businesses.
The multihyphenate who co-founded Flavor Unit Entertainment in 1995 understands the unique challenges small businesses face when maintaining seamless operations, especially in the first few years. From keeping the lights on, building brand recognition, hiring staff, and ensuring customer satisfaction, it isn't always easy for companies trying to find their footing.
These are among the reasons why the Grammy Award winner is willing to lend her li...

Former Ms. Olympian Sheryl Grant has an unforgettable presence. She has an infectious smile and a warm personality, and her abs are spectacular. It's important to emphasize that being in excellent shape at 61 isn't an anomaly. But what truly distinguishes Grant's decision is that she has chosen to embark on a journey to compete to become Ms Olympia again in November.
Training at that level requires hours daily of hard work, a strict diet, and substantial personal sacrifice. If you scroll thro...

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), a common childhood neurodevelopmental disorder, is typically first diagnosed when kids are 3 to 7 years old and can continue into adulthood. “Learning and thinking differences like ADHD are variations in how the brain processes information,” says Yvonne Cowser Yancy, Chief Administrative Officer and Head of Workplace at Understood.org. “It can affect skills such as reading, writing, math, focus, managing emotions, and organization,” she says.

Moisturizers should play a vital role in your skincare regimen, helping to seal in the benefits of all the other products you use. They are essential to maintaining a well-balanced complexion. While you might think that you can skip them if you have oily or combination skin, that would be a mistake, said Maya K. Thosani, MD, FAAD, FACMS, a dermatologist in Scottsdale, Arizona. “Moisturizing signals to the oil glands that they do not need to overproduce to compensate for the dryness,” she expl...

After enjoying a summer of light, airy, and bright-smelling scents as the temps start to dip, choosing something a little warmer and comforting might be on your mind. We're not saying you should immerse yourself in heavy odors or choose only products labeled with pumpkin spice. Instead, consider leaning into fragrances with notes of vanilla, bourbon, cashmere, and a hint of musk.
And although some cult favorites like Parfum de Marly's Delina, which we rocked spring into summer, work just as w...

You might not think it matters what kind of cleanser you use to wash your face or body, but it actually makes a meaningful difference to your skin. Just as you consider your skin type when choosing a facial moisturizer, you need to think about it when selecting a wash. "A normal skincare routine should at least include a gentle cleanser, vitamin C, a lightweight moisturizer, and a broad-spectrum SPF," said Elizabeth Ranelli, DNP, FNP-BC, CANS, a board-certified family nurse practitioner. If y...

Back in the day, a veggie burger wasn’t exactly a food you craved. But plant-based meats have come a long way and are making quite a name for themselves, so much so that they have managed to capture the attention of not only vegans and vegetarians but also lifelong meat-eaters. They look, taste and in some cases even appear to bleed just like animal meat. They have started showing up on fast food menus such as Del Taco and Burger King, which have reported sales increases since introducing pla...

If one of your friends was Prince, your brother was Terry Lewis, and the leader of one of the bands you'd been in was Morris Day, could you stand out and be noticed?
Well, if your name is Jerome Benton, then you would. That is exactly what Benton has been doing since he started his career; he has been a star that shines brightly no matter who he is standing next to.
While he remains pretty low-key, he took time out to speak with BET.com about his upcoming screening of the movie Under the Cher...

You already know that sunscreen should be part of your daily skincare regimen, but choosing a suitable SPF can be challenging when you experience breakouts and clogged pores. If you have acne, though, finding adequate sun protection is even more important than usual, as sunburns can make your already inflamed skin worse, said Rachel Lee Lozina, a licensed esthetician and owner of Blue Water Spa in Oyster Bay, New York. If your facial products are photosensitive, the sun can also cause a react...

If you've ever had a chance to speak with Stacey Abrams, three words will instantly come to mind: brilliant, funny, and warm. That isn't to say that she seems the opposite of that when she is standing behind a podium or in deep conversation with a reporter about the state of politics. However, in those moments, the three words that may cross your mind are politician, lawyer, and voting rights activist. But that's the thing about multihyphenates: they easily exist in multiple spaces and, in th...
