The long warmer days of spring offer inspiration, encouraging us to engage in activities that rejuvenate our spirits. There are numerous ways to embrace the joys of spring and integrate the season's bounty in meaningful ways. Here are three of our favorites:
Taking a stroll outdoors is an excellent mood booster. Research indicates numerous benefits to spending time outdoors, including enhanced cognitive function, improved cardiovascular health and reduced levels of depression, anxiety and stress. It's also a great way to make social connections!
Gardening and caring for indoor or outdoor plants is highly rewarding, and indoor plants can improve the air quality in your living space too! Making contact with soil builds mindfulness, reduces cortisol (the stress hormone) and provides antioxidant effects.
Staying hydrated is important year-round, but with more time in the sun, its even more important to stay hydrated in the spring. if you struggle to drink enough water, try eating more water-dense foods such as cucumber, watermelon, and tomato.
Spring is for renewal. Put a spring in your step, put your hands (or feet) in dirt, stay hydrated!
