Take time to pause, and reflect. Make this a daily habit, and use this time to consider whether you’re adding too much into your life. Often we add things thinking we can handle it, but in reality a new commitment or project means a lot of time and effort, and less time for other things that might be important. So things like family, friends, health, creativity and solitude get pushed back as we add new commitments. Simply pause, and consider whether simplifying wouldn’t be a better route.

  • The sun benefits us in a number of ways. The sun delivers heat, raising core body temperature. Higher core body temperatures facilitate increased cell function and higher energy. This increases our detoxification and purification systems. Sun also regulates our natural biorhythm cycles. Boosted core temperatures increase cortisol levels during the day, ushering more relaxation and deeper sleep during the night.
