Now that the weather is absolutely beautiful, it is my goal to get you outside and get you moving.
Have you ever heard of the term "earthing"? Well, it basically states that we no longer have direct physical contact with the earth anymore and that because of this there is a negative effect on our health due to the lack of us exchanging electrons with the earth.
Whether you believe all the hype behind "earthing" or "grounding" you have to admit that things just feel calmer when you are outside digging your toes in the sand. There is a sense of peace when you hear those waves rushing to the shore, the birds squawking, and the sun's heat.
We as a society have gotten to used to sitting around indoors and it is creating a lot of health problems. It is time to get outdoors and get moving more, there is truly no better time to get outdoors than right now.
Here are a few ideas of things you can do:
It's time we start playing again! Remember the energy you had as a child? I promise you, you still have that in you, you just have to start playing again and it will come back!!!
Commit to doing at least one of these activities and post below what you tried and how it felt.

Here are a few ideas of things you can do:
- grab a friend and go for a walk; many of us have coffee dates with friends but this month change it up by grabbing that coffee "to go" and finding a path to walk along
- take your kids to the park and instead of sitting on the bench to watch them, get out and swing with them, try to do the monkey bars, climb in the climbing areas, and jump from stone to stone
- head to the beach and bring a ball or Frisbee, swim in the ocean, or just spin in circles
- try climbing a tree
- walk barefoot through your grass and splash in muddy puddles after it rains
- grab your neighbors for a game of kickball, basketball, softball or flag football
- go swimming with your kids
- try a picnic in the park
