Spring is a great time to look at our health habits. More than the new year, the beginning of spring seems to be an appropriate jumping off point for self-improvement. There are signs of new life all around us, the temperature becomes warmer - inviting us out into nature, we enjoy more sunlight every day. We can be very motivated and inspired to look at our current health habits and make some changes where necessary.
This can be a time to look at the various aspects of health and see where you can change things up:
• Food. How has your diet been? During the winter we are inclined to eat heavier comfort foods - warm soups, stews, pasta, breads, meats. Spring can inspire us to eat lighter foods - soups and stews can still be on the menu, but made with lighter and fresher ingredients.
