A Breath of Fresh Air
Tue, 04/07/2009 - 15:07 — justinFew things stimulate the senses as well as a breath of fresh air. Too many of us spend our lives indoors whether at home, work, or traveling in between. Every now and then, we need to stop and breathe, something we often find ourselves forgetting to do. This simple act can help balance the stress in your life. Whether this act is completed in the morning, afternoon, evening, or night slowing yourself down enough to enjoy the moment can have an immense impact on your emotions. By spending time on yourself and for your health is a necessary commitment that should not be forsaken for an extra twenty minutes of work. I prefer to exercise outdoors and get lost in my surrounding whether that is in the city, suburbs, or country, take in the sights and sounds. Combine this feeling with the sensation of weightlessness provided by a trampoline, and you will be stunned by how free you feel. The ability to let go of everything for a bit and simply enjoy the feeling of floating will be incredible. We tend to tune out everything around us as we travel with purpose and intent and this creates a habit of ignoring what is around us in order to be more productive. As part of a healthy lifestyle, time spent on you, and doing what you love is crucial. Whatever you are doing, wherever you are, remember to stop and take a breath of fresh air during your day.
