As we step into the new weather, and the last few weeks of May...

Can you believe in just a few weeks we are half way through 2024?!!

This time is all about cultivating simple habits can set the tone for positive change and personal growth.

It’s ok if you reflect back and notice that you may have fallen off the track towards the goals you had set out for this year.

Dr. Kendra ND, shared these tips with us at the beginning of the year, BUT they are still true as we start to prepare for the second half of 2024.

*Begin with small, achievable practices that align with your goals.

*Identify a specific behaviour you want to cultivate and break it down into manageable tasks.

**Whether it’s drinking more water, taking short walks, or dedicating time to mindfulness, simplicity is key.

Start with a modest goal, making it easy to incorporate into your routine.

This is your symbolic fresh start, making it an opportune time to initiate positive routines.

Choose habits that resonate with your values and contribute to your well-being. The key to habit formation is repetition & consistency. This helps to reinforce neural pathways, making it more automatic over time.

Celebrate small victories to maintain motivation, and don’t be discouraged by occasional setbacks.

Ready for Caitie’s favourite stress relieving modality?

Along with stretching, yoga, and mobility exercises, Caitie is a huge fan of diaphragmatic breathing, and often promotes this habit in her practice.

Try this simple process during the day or before you go to sleep at night:

1. Get in a comfy position - I like to lie on my back with a pillow supporting my neck and knees. This can also be done seated.

2. Place one hand on your stomach and one on your chest.

3. Take a deep, slow breath in through your nose so that your stomach moves out against your hand. The hand on your chest should be still.

4. As you exhale, tighten your stomach muscles and breathe out slowly through pursed lips.

5. Aim to do this for a few minutes each day. Diaphragmatic breathing can help to improve muscle function, lower heart rate and improve relaxation, and help to oxygenate your blood.
