Happy March🌻

As the snow melts, spring begins to take shape!

Here are some tips and tricks to shake off winter:

1. Start a Garden🌷
Not only does gardening offer stress relief and mild and moderate exercise, but there are some unexpected health benefits that come with growing a vegetable garden or taking care of some containers of tomato plants on an apartment balcony: Puttering around with shears and trowels can maintain hand strength and dexterity—something that frequently diminishes as we age.
Plus, using the nondominant hand in these activities can also stimulate brain functioning.Employees benefit from the satisfaction (and nutrition) that comes from eating something they’ve grown on their own.

2. Get Walking 🧚🏻
With warmer weather approaching, encourage employees to get moving and get outdoors by starting a lunchtime walking club. Walking can help employees manage their weight and prevent or manage issues like heart disease and high blood pressure—plus, it’s easy on the body, so almost everyone can participate. In addition, walking is proven to lower stress and boost creativity, both of which improve employee engagement and performance.

3. Spring Cleaning 🧼
Doing a deep clean every year of their home or office can give employees a definite sense of accomplishment, but they probably didn’t know it’s good for their health, too. A thorough cleaning can help reduce the amount of pollen, pet dander, and other allergens that may have accumulated in their home since the last deep cleaning.
Wellness can be found in the most unexpected of places—from a well-tended garden to a newly cleaned junk drawer—and springtime offers you and your employees ample opportunity to grow, become healthier and bloom into vibrant and well-rounded people.

✨Wellness Wednesday ✨

This week especially has been full of stress and uncertainty. Take some time for yourself-even as little as 5 minutes to unplug, reconnect with nature, and reset.

✨Mental Health Tip✨
One way to unplug is by disconnecting from your electronics and social media. While social media can be a great place, content of all types can become overwhelming.
