The second half has been violent daily storms that make the sky look like something out of a sci-fi movie. I’m just remembering to get my walks in early during the day so I can be home for dinner and a storm in the evening.

🌿 Saw the cutest little guy walking around downtown Celebration. 

🌿 I love all the nature and architecture in Winter Park. 

🌿 Happy Mermaid week!

We have a little over a month left of spring and I We have a little over a month left of spring and I plan to spend it intentionally enjoying so much of what this season has to offer. April was a whirlwind of family emergencies and stress so this May, I’ve really been taking the time to slow down, live in the moment, and focus on joy. Every season I have a hygge bucket list of things I want to do at least once (but usually often) during that season. So many people write down and prioritize goals for their career or their body but it’s important to also create goals around your mental health and well being. 

How To Enjoy Hygge This Spring: 

🌷  Explore your neighborhood. 
🌷 Visit a botanical garden. 
🌷 Gift plants to your friends and neighbors.
🌷 Learn a new iced drink recipe.
🌷 Start a garden (or get one new plant).
🌷 Have a picnic. 
🌷 Eat seasonal vegetables and fruit.
🌷 Play an outdoor sport. 
🌷 Enjoy the natural light in your home.
🌷 Read on a hammock or bench outside. 
🌷Donate items you aren’t using often.
🌷Go to the farmer’s market.
🌷Do something creative.

How do you plan to enjoy the last month of spring this year?

5 workouts that don’t completely bore me

Lately I have been trying really hard to get some sort of work out in every day. When you are trying to get healthier, exercising daily is important. The biggest problem that I am facing is that I sometimes find myself incredibly bored towards the end of my gym workout. The five following workouts are helping me combat that boredom.

 

1. Basketball

Basketball is amazing because it tricks me into enjoying running. The running and jumping involved in basketball make it a great cardiovascular workout and while you are burning off the fat, you are also strengthening those muscles!

2. Swimming 

Jumping in the pool or ocean is a great way to get a workout while still going easy on your muscles and joints. Swimming can help with flexibility, muscle toning, a healthier heart, and even asthma symptoms. Not to mention, I always sleep like a baby the night after a pool workout.

3. Videos

If a daily trip to the gym feels monotonous, then videos may help bring some variety to your fitness life! I personally love anything that Jillian Michaels does, especially the 30 Day Shred. Beach body has a lot of great options as well that range from the extremely fun Hip Hop Abs to the extremely insane, Insanity.

4. Dancing

Feel like skipping the gym this weekend? Why not grab your friends and tear up the dance floor? A trip to the nearest night club might be a great way to relieve stress, release endorphins, and tone those legs all while having fun with your friends. Just consider skipping the drinks (they are loaded with calories and they are not doing anything positive for your liver) and maybe wearing flats (your feet will thank you know, your joints will thank you later)!

5. Walking Dates

I go on walking dates with my husband a few times a week. It’s a great opportunity for us to talk without any distractions while still staying active. Sometimes we will walk to a local store or coffee shop while other times we will just walk until we feel like turning around and heading home. I also go on walking dates with some of my friends. It is a great way for us to catch up on what has been going on in each others lives without having to revolve all of our plans around lunch or dinner. Since my friends and I love to talk, these walks normally end up being quite long!

 

Hopefully one of these ideas can help you beat boredom and continue to stay (or get) active. Let me know if any of them work for you or other ways you enjoy working out with out getting bored!
