Mindfulness Challenge: Silent Time This week we’re going to experiment with silence by taking a vow of silence… for 30 minutes, an hour, or maybe even more! That’s right: our challenge is to be INTENTIONALLY silent for a specific period of time.

🥦🥒🥕Top Chef Tip: Chefs often season salad greens BEFORE adding anything else to them. Next time you make a salad, try adding a few grinds of #Himalayan sea salt and black #pepper and toss/massage your greens before you add your ingredients and dressing.

Foodie Challenge: Seven Salads This week let’s take our veggie game to the another level by eating a salad...EVERY DAY! Add nuts, avocado, seeds – try different oils or vinegars in your dressings – toss on some fresh berries or pear slices – add some uncured meats.

Did you know that 72% of people often eat their meals while watching TV? And that over 50% of people eat with their phones at the table?! 📺📱 When was the last time you ate a meal with no distractions – no TV, no phone, no noise?

Mindfulness Challenge: How to cut stress while doing chores! Did you know that a study at Florida State University showed that washing dishes actually can help REDUCE stress? It all boiled down to mindfulness: being FULLY PRESENT while doing regular, everyday things.

How many friends are you in regular contact with? A study in Britain found that the happiest people keep in contact with 10 friends! Take some time to reach out to people you haven’t seen in a while and touch base!

This week you have full-on permission to do one #INTENTIONAL thing each day that makes you happy - the kind of #happiness that fuels your spirit! The funny thing about intentionally doing things to create happiness: it MULTIPLIES if someone else benefits, too!

💡👚💪Here’s a tip that’ll make your workout clothes last longer while helping them feel fresher and cleaner! Wash them inside-out. It’s the INSIDE of your workout clothes that need the most cleaning, from sweat and dead skin cells.

A fun way to #challenge your #brain is to do an everyday activity (like brushing your teeth) with your #non-dominant hand. It can be an eye-opening (and sometimes frustrating) experience that helps “fire up” your brain by using different neural pathways! 😁😁

One of the best things you can do to ensure your brain stays healthy as you get older is to take care of your body – eating a balanced diet and getting enough exercise. #boostyourbrain

If you work at a desk, you already know it’s super important to take regular #breaks to get up and move & #stretch. Check how your #chair, #desk and #computer are set up. Take a few minutes to make some #adjustments to make sure your workstation is not working against you!

Open Up Those Wings! We’re going to make time to #stretch out our chest and shoulder muscles. Because of our modern lifestyle pretty much EVERYONE needs to do this – especially anyone who spends time in front of a computer, at a desk, or using their cell phones/devices.

One tip to make #intermittent #fasting seem less daunting, is to start with a shorter period of time, and then gradually increase it. We all react differently, so what works for you might have a different result for someone else.
