If you\u2019re wondering how to stay fit in winter, here are eight ways to adapt your wellness routine so it\u2019s easy to maintain all season long.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Support Your Immune System<\/h2>\n<p>Winter is a common time to get sick, so it\u2019s good to be extra careful about staying healthy.

The cold air and lower humidity can make your skin feel dry, flaky, or itchy. To make sure your skin stays hydrated and healthy this winter, you may want to switch to a heavier-duty moisturizer than what you\u2019d use during the humid summer months. Avoid long soaks in hot water, which can be drying, and consider using a humidifier at night.<\/p>\n<p>One habit you should keep from your summer skin care routine:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.skincancer.org\/press\/2018-winter-sun-safety\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sunscreen<\/a>!
