April is Stress Awareness Month. If April Fool's Day baked your cake, that's a sign you might need to self-assess. In a journal (order one here), jot down each time you want to yank your hair, then recall what happened just before. Write down a way to change the situation next time. Anxiety, depression, stress? You can beat this. If you need more help, a trained psychologist can provide you additional techniques to banish your stress forever.
The final days of March have a reputation for being stormy, giving them the nickname Borrowing Days. Scottish folklore suggests the final days of March are "borrowed" from April to increase March's power. Storms or not, this is the final day of the month, and we have survived!
Not INTO your food, but FROM it! Adding lemon, herbs, and spices can punch up the flavor. You won't even miss the salt. (Chili seasoning is one of my favorites!)
As we near the end of March, think back on how mindful your March has been. Literally, mindfulness means to commit fully to being present in each moment. At mealtimes, focus on what you're eating. In conversation, listen to those around you. With your kids, they become the center. If you've done this more often than not, congrats on a successful Mindful March!
Use today to notice something besides your phone or computer. As much as possible, make this a device-free day. Pay attention to the sky, your pets, your children, and how you feel inside. Game changer, for sure!
