Why Taking a Holistic Approach to Weight Loss and Wellness Makes Such a Big Difference — and the Go-To App to Try
Committing to a healthier lifestyle doesn't just revolve around eating better — your sleep, physical activity, and mental health can all have a huge impact on your overall well-being.
The same goes for weight loss: if your goal is losing a few pounds in a healthy way, you need to take a look at your overall daily routine — not just how much you're exercising or what you're eating. That's why the improved WW app takes a holistic approach to wellness by giving you all the tools you need to build a healthier lifestyle overall.
It all comes down to four key pillars: a healthy diet, physical activity, quality sleep, and a positive outlook. Keep reading for a sneak peek into how the WW app makes it easier to create your healthiest and happiest life — and why you might want to consider a membership today.
Easy Meal Planning
Creating a weekly meal plan — and sticking to it — has never been easier. The WW app has a new meal planning tool that makes it super simple with a database of more than 9,000 recipes, or you can opt for one of WW's premade weekly meal plans. Plus, once you've planned a few meals, the app will learn your preferences and suggest recipes based on your favorite meals and eating patterns.
On-Demand Workouts
The WW app also helps you focus on moving more with FitPoints®. Every time you do something active — whether that's gardening in the backyard or going for a walk — you earn FitPoints. It even syncs with your phone or activity tracker! The app also includes a suite of on-demand workout videos from FitOn® and guided audio fitness instruction from Aaptiv®. You can try everything from a five-minute stretching routine to a gratitude walk to a heart-pumping interval workout with a few taps. It doesn't get much easier than that.
Sleep Tracking
When you're not getting enough rest, it's tough to stay committed to a healthy lifestyle all day long. Tracking your sleep in the WW app helps you become more aware of your sleep patterns so you can focus on getting better shut-eye and feeling your best. You can even create a custom bedtime routine with a relaxing meditation or stretches to help you wind down.
Guided Meditation
Of course, having the right mindset can also play a big role in sticking to a healthy routine. That's why the WW app also offers guided meditations from Headspace® and five-minute audio coaching sessions from WW's Director of Behavior Change. Recordings focus on everything from self-doubt to mindful eating to stress-reduction techniques, so there's something for every mood. You'd be amazed by how much of a difference it can make — join WW today to try it out for yourself!
