Spring is here! It stays brighter longer and we can all be grateful for that! You are probably starting to feel a little bit more energetic as you come out of winter hibernation. Maybe a little more motivated to exercise?
I encourage longer walks, maybe mixed with some running, if you are so inclined. You’ll be running a couple miles in no time!
Don’t forget to hydrate. You are like a spring flower that needs hydration to blossom and thrive.
Find time to be present in the moment while enjoying the outdoors. All the beauty that can be found when we are quiet and attentive is amazing.
Work on your breathing, drop your shoulders, and discover a relaxed position for your body. If you are having a hard time finding a proper and relaxed position, then try an Alexander technique class. Element has a fabulous, inspiring teacher, Dan Cayer. Let him help you!
Find some balance this spring with acupuncture. Now is the perfect time to come in for a seasonal tune-up.
Disconnect from your “devices” and go to bed earlier.
There are many ways improve the healthy qualities in day-to-day existence. Healthy practices are cumulative and lead to a happier, more robust life.
