Spring Wellness Tips
It's official, Spring has arrived!!! It’s the season for renewal and that has never been truer to me. At the end of last year, my body forced me to take some time off, so I'm so excited to resume my activities as a health coach! I will be sharing more about that soon in my upcoming newsletter, so subscribe - link in bio. Here are some strategies to jumpstart the season:
DIET
This is a great time for a DETOX. There are many ways of doing it, but the easiest and safest is by doing some intermittent fasting. Eat an early dinner and have a later breakfast, so you have a 12-16 hours interval between meals. Add more nutrition-dense foods to your diet to support the body’s natural detoxification pathways, like berries, dark leafy greens, cruciferous vegetables, onion, garlic, ginger, and turmeric. Eat the rainbow and your body will love you back!
BEAUTY
Let’s EXFOLIATE to slough off the body’s dead skin that builds up after months of being covered in multiple layers. Dry brush to increase circulation and help DETOX, and do a full-body scrub with a simple DYI recipe - coconut oil and brown sugar. For the face, I recommend a cellulose sponge with a non-drying cleanser and a night treatment with bakuchiol and lactic acid. Check out some of my favorite products on Amazon.
HOME
SPRING CLEANING it’s a must! I am a big advocate of de-cluttering to simplify life and I always sell or donate things that don’t serve a purpose in my life anymore. I am tempted to get rid of a big portion of my closet after months of wearing sweatpants in lockdown, but for now, I am making sure I only keep what I absolutely love. It’s also time to plant in the garden or get a couple of house plants!
MINDSET
This is a great time to review your yearly goals as we move into the second quarter of the year. Start projects, renew contracts, get more active on sales if you have a business, go out and socialize (responsibly), get on an exercise program... I suggest we support small businesses to stay afloat. And let's get outdoors as the temperature rise, it will be a great mood booster.
