We tried a handful of approaches and kept only the ones that were genuinely easy to stick with.
It's easy to overthink this, so let's keep it simple and start with the basics that genuinely matter.
None of this needs special tools or a lot of spare time — a few minutes here and there is plenty.
When in doubt, do less but do it more consistently; steady beats intense almost every time.
Start small, notice what works for you, and let the routine build gradually from there.
The goal isn't perfection — it's something sensible you can keep doing on a normal, busy week.
