The
anticipation of spring brings thoughts of fresh air, blooming
flowers, and new beginnings. It's one of my favorite times of the
year. I want to clean house, toss clutter, and reset my sluggish
winter habits. Even though my to do list gets longer, the activities
on it are positively invigorating. - It's
time to put away dark colors, in clothing and decor. Take cues from
nature: use light, airy pastels or clear bright hues.
- Find
ways to get outdoors to soak up sunshine or splash in rain puddles.
Forget the treadmill, walk your own back yard or neighborhood.
- Open
your mind to new experiences. Try looking at life from a fresh
perspective. Release negative people and thoughts to lighten your
load.
- Replace heavy meals with lighter choices. Bring on the chicken salad, fresh veggies, lemonade, salads, and sweet iced tea!
Spring adds new life and
new beauty to all that is.
