When we hear the term spring cleaning we think about our home and organizing or de-cluttering our material items. A far more important task though is spring cleaning our bodies and minds. In other words, take care of yourself and refresh for your health.
Start detoxing – We pamper and primp our outside selves but what about our inner self? Help the body to detox by eating plenty of green vegetables, drinking lots of water, and getting essential nutrients daily. Visit your local juice bar and add a green juice or beet smoothie to your daily routine. Even better invest in 
a juicer or vitamix for your home and enjoy juices or smoothies right in your kitchen. Did you also know that simply slicing cucumbers and adding to water is detoxing? These simple changes in diet will boost your energy and improve overall wellness. Also, improve digestion by eating yogurt or taking probiotics. Here is a recipe for a beet smoothie: We Got The Beet and also a kale soup recipe Broccoflower And Kale Soup.
Start sweating – Find a way to work out that you enjoy and will help you break a sweat. This is another way to help the body eliminate toxins, as well as leave people feeling happier. We all know that no matter how grueling a workout may be, the end result leaves us breathing deeper, feeling euphoric, and ups our energy level.
Shed your layers – Get a facial: This will help get rid of all of the old skin cells and leave skin that is fresh, clean, and glowing. A great product that you can incorporate into your daily routine is Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant $55. Get waxed: One of the most common things people do during the winter is let the hair in various places grow. Make a wax appointment at a reputable spa near you and get swimsuit ready.
Get some color – Avoid getting tanned or burned by the sun, but do go out and get some Vitamin D. It will give your skin a glow and the feeling of the warmth of the sun against your skin is good for your mind and soul. Remember to reach for a sunscreen recommended by The Skin Cancer Foundation like Sun Bum. Also did you know that drinking carrot juice before and after sun exposure is good for healthy skin? So next time you hit the beach make sure to pack some bunny love in your cooler.
De-stress regularly – Stress is detrimental to the body, so it’s important that people find ways to reduce it. Opt for such activities like hiking, cycling, taking a walk, gardening, doing yoga, or meditating. Want to know one of our favorite lines of activewear? Check out Peggy Moffitt.
