Did you know that how you are feeling is the direct result of the choices you are making? If you take care of your body, both inside and out, your mood will improve! How can you keep your mind focused on what's best for your body?
In my opinion:
- Always have fresh fruit, vegetables and process-free foods in your house. Processed foods that are high in sugar may divert your attention away from uncomfortable feelings for the time being, but an apple or celery with a small amount of natural peanut butter will energize you! You did something great for your body, which will improve your mood at the same time.
- Feeling down and have some extra time? Get outside and rake the leaves or clean out the flower beds. Once you've completed the task, you will feel a sense of accomplishment. You'll also burn more calories than you would have sitting around the house.
- Choose an activity that you love to do and get involved in a group. Locate a yoga or belly dancing studio, ask that neighbor of yours to get out and walk with you, or visit your local gym and check out their list of classes. Some gyms like Lifetime Fitness will allow you to try out the club (and as many classes as you would like) for a week!
