Welcome to Week 2 of the Carpe More Diem Reset where we will focus on Wellness.
When I think of wellness, I tend to break it down into two main buckets – body and mind.
From there I think, what wellness practices can I weave into my life that will help me nurture both my physical being as well as my mental being?
A few questions to think about this week –
PHYSICAL
- What foods you are choosing to put into your body? Are they whole, real foods that will nourish you?
- Are you drinking enough water and staying hydrated throughout the day?
- Are you moving your body in some form, whether that be stretching, walking, yoga, or running?
MENTAL
- Are you getting enough sleep at night?
- Are you giving youself space to breathe and think? – going on a walk, journaling, or simply sitting quietly for a few minutes.
- Are you connecting with others? – a phone call, sending a card in the mail, a walk with a friend.
Daily Focus In the spirit of this week’s theme – Wellness – below are daily prompts to help you reset & infuse intentionality into your days by way of physical and mental wellness.
