To do this, it encourages you to carry out one small task each day, based on one of four areas: diet, movement, mindfulness and things you love.<\/p>\n<p>Examples of tasks include improving your posture, taking some time out to reflect and doing a few push-ups. The theory is that every small action you take creates a much larger positive change in the long term.<\/p>\n<p>Each of the app\u2019s areas of improvement is overseen by an expert, with none other than Jamie Oliver taking the reins for the food section.<\/p>\n<p>The app itself is similar to Instagram. Once you\u2019ve completed your task for the day, the app encourages you to take a photo and share it. Other users can then like and comment on your post.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><strong>Why is it surprisingly easy? <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>As anyone\u2019s who\u2019s ever broken a New Year\u2019s Resolution (read: everyone) will tell you, it\u2019s hard to make a big lifestyle change in one go. Completing one task a day, and being told what task to complete, is a much more manageable way to take positive steps forward in your life.<\/p>\n<p>The app itself is fairly easy to use too, with handy bite size content telling you what to do, why to do it and offering up plenty of encouragement when things get tough.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><strong>The best bit<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The actions set are usually fairly simple and quick, so they won\u2019t cut into your day too much but you\u2019ll still feel the positive effects.
