Make natural health your priority this spring
Spring is the season of renewal and a perfect time to prioritise your health and wellbeing. As we transition out of winter into longer days with a warmer sun, our energy levels naturally increase which makes it easier to spring clean our health routine too.
Just like decluttering your home during spring cleaning, if you revamp your diet, fitness, and self-care routines this spring, you can improve your overall wellbeing.
To get started, set some new health and wellness goals. Whether it’s regular exercise, self-care practises, or trying out new ideas, clear intentions will keep you motivated.
Take advantage of the sun, bursting tree buds and blooming flowers by moving your workouts outdoors. Whether it’s running, biking, gardening or taking a simple leisurely walk, being active in nature can boost your mood and energy levels.
Spring is a wonderful time to embrace fresh local produce, so nourish your health with seasonal fruits and vegetables. Incorporate leafy greens, strawberries, asparagus, and peas – they provide essential nutrients.
As temperatures rise, it’s vital to stay hydrated. Drink plenty of water, and consider adding electrolyte-rich options like coconut water.
We all try to fit too much into our busy lives these days, but it’s not good for our wellbeing. Slow down and savour spring’s beauty through deliberate mindfulness. Try meditating in your garden, practice outdoor yoga, or simply take more deep breaths to reduce stress.
As the days get longer, it’s important to prioritise your sleep by maintaining a consistent sleep schedule. Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep each night to recharge your body.
To really put a spring back in your step this spring, try a juice or water cleanse. This can help you feel motivated to improve other facets of your lifestyle, like your exercise regime. Over more than 55 years of supervising juice and water therapy at our health retreat, Hopewood’s natural health practitioners noted significant improvements in many health conditions. These conditions included liver, kidney and immune function, skin conditions and chest congestion, cholesterol and blood pressure, fatigue and poor digestion, joint and muscular aches and mental clarity.
A thorough detox can really deliver rewards and you can expect to feel healthier, happier and more energetic. Click here more information about cleansing the Hopewood way, and for lots of great juice recipes buy your copy of “Lifestyle – Hopewood’s recipe for wellbeing” today.
