Monday Mantra - "I invite well being by going outdoors and being at one with nature"
One of the fastest ways to get a happiness boost is to go outdoors! Being outside, feeling connected to the elements, even when it is chilly and wet actually increases happiness. When we are inside for too long we become light deprived which can leave us feeling sluggish and down. People who work from home or in an office or factory environment may struggle to make time to get outside. Walking from the house to the car and back again at the end of the day isn't providing you with the outdoor fix your body craves. Add to that weekends filled with cleaning, washing, ironing and shopping, you can see where yor valuable time gets taken away to enjoy outdoors time.
Take some time out everyday to connect with nature and breathe in fresh air. Spend some time outdoors in the morning - walking bare foot on dewy grass feels lovely in the morning. Walk to work if possible, take a lunchtime stroll or step out in the evening to shake off a stressful day. Gardening and maintaining a small plot gives enormous pleasure and gives you valuable thinking time as well as being outdoors.
Even on hot days like this, find a shady spot, sit still and enjoy the gentle breeze!
Love and Blessings,
Jean Fisher-Taylor
