Believe it or not, it's almost the month of May! Now's the time to get active as we transition seasons. Here are some tips for how you can "spring into wellness"!

Wake up early to exercise.

The mornings are warming up, and spring means the sun rises early every day. So take good advantage of this. Get out and exercise before starting your daily hustle, whether it's going for a run or walking the dog. Exercising before work can start your day on a high and positive note with clarity and energy.

Revitalize your daily fruits and vegetables.

The U.S Department of Agriculture recommends adding 4.5 servings of fruits and veggies to your diet, each day. A solid foundation is a great start for any day. So, why not switch to a healthy glass of juice instead of coffee? Also, don’t forget to club a morning exercise routine with this healthy breakfast routine. You'll need the energy to make the most of your fitness routine. 

‍Drink water with a squeeze of lemon.

How often do you drink the recommended 11-15 glasses of water each day? For your body to perform at an optimum level, it's essential to stay hydrated. A glass of water can also be a good appetite suppressant and helps maintain a healthy weight. Try a squeeze of lemon in your water to aid digestion and add a bit of zest.

‍ Adequate sleep routine to maintain a healthy weight.

Try to sleep 6-8 hours each night. Staying up late has been shown to increase the chances of overeating. Getting proper rest will help reduce the opportunity to make bad diet decisions while preparing you for the demands of the next day.

‍Schedule screenings and doctor's appointments.

‍Spring is a good time for a health check-up. Before starting an exercise regime, it's always recommended to check with your primary care physician. Are there any allergy medications needed to be refilled before heading outside? 

When the weather turns warm and the flowers start blooming, it's our signal to get ahead of the game for making each spring fun and rewarding. Many of the activities above can be done with friends, family, or coworkers for a mutually beneficial health boost. 

In warm weather, allergies and illnesses might disturb your health. Shield yourself from the spring sickness with W T Rawleigh’s Honeybee Propolis with Elderberry. Its immune-boosting and anti-inflammatory properties may keep you away from allergies during spring. Check it out on our website!
