Welcome to Leo Season you Lions & Lionesses!
I know I'm grateful to have moved through cancer season after a lot of tears. I'm grateful to be on the other side of my second round of COVID. I finally have enough energy to write this newsletter, so sorry it's a little late. How are you doing? I'd love to hear from you!
Are you looking to be more effective in your life?
Are you wondering how some people maintain their zest and find joy in daily life even on Mondays?
Do you inspire to have more energy and vitality, so you can help others more efficiently?
If so, read on for the 7 daily habits of highly effective people:
1. Wake up at the same time every morning without an alarm clock. This is key to vitality and it is less shocking on the nervous sytem to be startled with a loud sound during a deep sleep. Going to bed at the same time every night will help you stick to a regular waking time.
2. Meditate at least once daily. Meditating for shorter periods more frequently is known to be more effective than infrequently for longer periods. Stay consistent and find joy in it over time with practice. Meditation is a great way to rewire your nervous system and create new neural pathways to help you stick healthy new habits, patterns and ways of thinking.
3. Eat nutritious foods and stay hydrated. Eat many organic vegetables, in season fruits, high quality protein and healthy fats. Food is grounding and the foundation to health and wellness. Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and consider a high quality electrolyte. Limit alcohol and sugar which deplete your immune system and health.
4. Move your body through exercise, dance, martial arts, qi gong/tai chi or yoga. Movement is the key to releasing stuck energy and negativity through the body and energy field. It is great for lymphatic flow and stress reduction.
5. Get connection daily and be playful. Connection is a necessity and playfulness is the key to longevity and joy. Find support groups, search local meetup groups, go to a community class, call family, or visit a friend in person or vitually. Be compassionate with yourself and others, always show empathy.
6. Get in your Vitamin N (Nature). Get outdoors daily and often. It is one of the most grounding things you can do for yourself and can be a highly spiritual experience for some. Connect to nature and practice mindfulness. Leave your electronics at home.
7. Go to bed at the same time every night. Create a nightly bedtime ritual. Turn off wifi and unplug. Get a good 8 + hours of sleep per night. Strive to get to bed before 10pm to allow your organs to detox between the hours of 10pm - 4am. It's hard to fall asleep after this time, because 10pm is pitta (fire) time, so the body wants to start taking action again.
Contact me if would like more information or support on any one of these steps.
Peace and love,
