APRIL FITNESS TIP!

Now, I know we are all from all over the world, but from where I am - it's getting ready to get hot and humid!  And, it's so important that we can and are able to keep our bodies cool, especially when we are exercising.  Try these easy, Earth-friendly ways to cool down when temperatures rise:

1).  EAT RIGHT - Metabolizing food generates heat - the more you eat, the more heat, so try consuming smaller portions when temperatures rise.

2).  STAY HYDRATED - Sip water throughout the day - don't wait until you're thirsty.

3).  BRING ON THE SWEAT - Sweating is our bodies way of cooling off the body. Drink hot teas and spicy foods!

4).  SOOTHE YOUR SKIN - Try misting your skin with cool water or place feet in a cold bath while you relax. Or warm shower 1 hour before bed!
