Yoga Beyond Words with Cara-Lynne Auld

Tis the Season...

Oh, the holidays. I love the holidays, there are lots of magical moments, great and small. So from the moment Starbucks starts serving their Christmas blend I start plotting and planning with joy. But then the expectations start to pile up, the to-do lists starts to grow and quite honestly I start to feel a little like this in my head.

*Did I buy her the watch or the scarf? What time did he say brunch was? Did I mail the cards?

I decided this year I wanted to enjoy the holidays more. I could I try to be more organized, great idea, not likely to happen. So, I decided to try mindfulness.

Hydrating Holidays

Big meals and lots of snacks may be in the near future with holiday spirit and festive cheer around the corner. Nutrition is an important factor especially this time of year when many people feel overwhelmed, stressed, anxious, depressed or any combination of the above. Diet impacts your muscles and mood, so keep limber and emotionally balanced by trying to eat vegetables and fruit first and keep well hydrated with water, before indulging in the extras. Happy holidays!

Yours in health,
