Seasons change and so do I...

Just spent a couple of hours working on my business Facebook page. I can't quite figure out how to  add a like box to this blog, so if anyone knows, I'd appreciate the input. I keep getting this big honking thing that does not fit in the column. I'll go back and try again when I feel fresh. Right now I am stiff and achy from sitting at the computer and watching the cold gray rain come down. I love the change of seasons but my body is not so sure. Time to get up and move around! I'm going to exercise as soon as I finish this entry and I know that will help.

Did you know that spring and fall, with all of their temperature fluctuations are challenging times for the body? I learned that when I was studying shiatsu (acupressure). It's especially important to do the basics, like getting enough rest and exercise, eating healthfully, and washing your hands frequently. It's also a good time to do a bit more, to practice prevention aka Wellness practices. Massage, using a neti pot, certain herbs like Echinacea and Astragalus, and MonaVie (m)Mun, which contains Wellmune, are all beneficial right now. I will be exploring some of these in more detail in the days ahead.
