Are you in need of a little boost today?

We’ve all been there. Mid-day we start to feel kind of sluggish, or just need a reset before taking on the rest of the day.

If you can relate, here are three things you can do to feel better right now…

  • Drink a glass of water

Staying hydrated is vital for so many bodily functions, including our energy levels and brain function.⁠ Drinking a glass of water can give our bodies a little boost, increasing energy and overall body functions like memory, mood, and the ability to focus.

  • Get some sunshine

Getting some sunshine actually boosts our serotonin levels, which helps improve our mood and stay focused.⁠ If you have time, take a walk around the block or simply head outside and take a few deep breaths.

  • Do a few quick stretches

Roll out your mat for just a few minutes to get the blood flowing and to help release tension (tense shoulders, anyone?) at any time of day.⁠ Do a quick roll down, figure 4 stretch, or rest pose – you’ll be amazed at how much better you feel!

And of course, a quick Pilates workout is always recommended for a mood boost. 🙂
