I hope that you are enjoying the recent thaw though it looks like we are in for a bit more winter weather on the East Coast this week. But spring is officially here so now is the time to reassess your fitness and wellness goals in anticipation of getting outside to enjoy all that this beautiful season of rebirth has to offer.
We’re all aware of the concept of Spring Cleaning with regards to our homes, yards and garages but what about for ourselves? Are there old ways of thinking that need to be swept away? Does your fitness routine need an update? Or perhaps it’s time to make that wellness check-up you have been putting off. Whatever it is, take a few minutes this week to think about things that you need to do for yourself so that you feel refreshed and revived this season.
Below is a list of a few of my favorite fitness and wellness titles to inspire:
Happier by Tal Ben-Shahar
This book is a compilation of Harvard lectures giving by one of the leading researchers in the area of positive psychology
Mayo Clinic Diet by Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research
An excellent book on the basics of nutrition
On Target Living by Chris Johnson
This book goes one step further than the above with specific food recommendations. Very easy to understand!
Power Foods by The Editors of Whole Living
Great recipes that incorporate the recommendations from the two books listed above.
So get started and enjoy spring!
Be well.
