Healthy Lifestyle Tips

Today I am officially transferring the health & beauty section of my blog onto this tab, it is more formatted like a blog so that the most recent post is at the top of the page. Much less scrolling now (:

I am currently writing this blog post on my porch, thankfully my porch is covered because it is lightly raining out here (I wouldn't mind the rain, but my computer wouldn't like it), the sun is shining, birds are singing, but there is a light rain. How beautiful does that sound?! I am in heaven, I have been sitting on my porch for pretty much every activity I perform around my house since it has been warm; eating, blogging, reading, sitting, stretching and some workouts. It is so nice to hear birds constantly singing and breathe in fresh air. I can't get enough.

I thought of a new way to transform some of the jewelry I have been working on into something that I think might work! This makes me excited because I really enjoy crafting, it relaxes me and gives me something to focus on. I get to feel all of my senses and I am completely in Spirit when I am crafting. Just as with cooking, hiking, running, things I have mentioned in previous posts. I will be working on them and taking pictures to show all of you!

Whenever I can get myself into that state of being, in Spirit, I want to go back there constantly. This is how I have been building good habits. Although the word habit has more of a negative connotation in our language, I believe in healthy habits as well or even better than habits, practices. The more I can practice healthy activities, the more they become habit or a routine..

Practice the activities that make you happy, practice them so much that you can make a living from them so that you no longer need to practice activities that make you unhappy or take up all of your energy. Isn't this the REAL dream of the planet? The dream that we all partake in our favorite activities and live our lives the way we want to, and not the way we are told to. If you want something out of life, YOU HAVE TO GO AND GET IT.

After I worked today, I went for a quick run (it was 87 degrees and I was dripping) on a trail near my home. It was BEAUTIFUL. I love how many trails around here have such amazing views of the mountains. I am madly in love with those mountains. They literally are magic. None of the pictures I took today did justice, nor do any of them ever... but this evenings sky was different in the way that it was so sunny, yet there were dark clouds in all different directions. They explain the light showers that have been going on and off. This type of weather isn't something I see often enough, I am finding it fascinating to watch. I found zen on this trail and plan to go back again soon.
