Do You Have A Desk Job Too?

My favorite nature spot.

I sit most of the day at my full-time library job.  I recently read a great article online from thespiritscience.net that explained 3 great ways to clear that stagnant energy if you sit all day!  Here they are:

1.  Exercise.  Get moving.  Walk, run, walk the dog, or do yoga.  Try anything that gets your heart pumping.  Just 20 minutes a day helps.  Make an upbeat playlist to get you motivated.

2.  Meditation.  Start small.  Relax into it.  Just be still.  5-10 minutes is really all you need.  Here is a good article from the website MindBodyGreen by Meditation instructor Light Watkins titled "Insider Tips To Make Meditation Easier".

3.  Spend Time In Nature.  So easy!  Walk outside, trail run, or ride your bike by a stream.  Read a book on a blanket.  Take a nap in a hammock outside.  Go to a waterfall{see picture above}!  Nature is the best healer!  Find a trail near you:  Rails-to-Trails Conservancy!

These are just 3 things you can do to get your energy moving and counteract sitting at a desk all day!  Oh ya, drink water too.  That will get you up and out of your chair A LOT--you know, to go to the bathroom!  Anyway, Move, Meditate, and spend some time in Mother Nature!

Love,
Nik
