Spring Cleaning

This month take the time to clean up your routine.  To do this, you need to think about what areas of your health and wellness need some focus and refinement.  Here are a few areas to consider looking at and action steps to take:

Mind:  Take a pause, a time-out, a break.  Give yourself a to-do list that has nothing on it but being mindful of your needs, wants and desires.  You’ll find yourself thinking clearer, more focused and having a healthier mindset.

Body:  Are you and your body tired of doing the same exercise routine?  Shake it up with short blasts of high intensity cardio or old-school strength building.  Get outside and challenge yourself to explore your community on foot or by bike and see how many body resistance exercises you can complete using nature as your gym.

Spirit:  What makes your spirits soar?  What do you love doing so much that you lose track of time when doing it?  At least once this month, do that activity!  The positive feeling you have will last for days.

Community: We all have a community of people that we are comfortable with.  It’s time to break out of your comfort zone and try something new with somebody new.  Take a class, volunteer, start a special interest group or simply have a meal with different people than you normally do.  We need each other and reaching out helps you reach new heights.
