Now is month to embrace our daily wellness routine
Throughout August National Wellness Month focuses on self-care, managing stress and promoting healthy routines.
Create wholesome habits in your lifestyle all month long and see how much better you feel!
As we all continue to adapt to life in a pandemic, keeping a healthy body, mind and soul is more important as ever.
Research has shown selfcare helps manage stress and promotes happiness.
Whether you challenge yourself to a new yoga pose or try a different spa treatment, make a small change and impact your health in positive ways.
There are numerous ways to make those small changes, too.
Increase your water intake.
Add more fruits and veggies to your meals.
Monitor your sleep and make adjustments for better sleep habits.
Join a yoga, walking, or aerobics class.
Learn to meditate.
Take more outdoor exercise even if it is just gardening.
