March Lively-ness has begun!  For the next several weeks, I invite you to participate in this month long initiative to improve your well-being and to be entered into a drawing to win a fabulous prize*.

Earlier this week, I hosted a teleclass on “The Four Corners of Wellness,” and shared tips on how to implement simple changes into your life through fitness, healthy eating, essential oils, and mindfulness.  Read on and try to add one or two things into your life today!  And remember, EVERY day represents an opportunity to make positive change.

Fitness

1. Move more!

• Use the furthest restroom from where you work/spend your time.
• Move during one 30 minute TV show.
• Stretch.

2. Try interval training – watch my blog for examples!

3. Set a fitness goal.

Healthy Eating

1. Make a green smoothie.
2. Replace your pasta (or most of it) with kale or broccoli.
3. Replace your starch side at a restaurant with double vegetables or mixed greens.

Essential Oils

1. Try lavender for better sleep, reducing stress, and healing cracked skin.
2. Use Frankincense with a carrier oil such as jojoba or coconut oil as a great night cream.

Mindfulness

1. Practice mindful eating by sitting down, slowing down, placing your fork down in between bites, and chewing each bite 20 times. TASTE your food!
2. Try a basic meditation by closing your eyes, taking a deep breath, and repeating the mantra: “Fear and darkness do not have a place in my life.  I live in love and light.”
