Summer is coming to the northern hemisphere. No matter how north or south you live, the changing season tells us life is different and we can do simple things to get the most of what's coming.
A few things to start:
1. Sleep- we need 7-8 hours of sleep/night no matter what season it is. Check your schedule, and look at black out curtains if the sun stays up past your bedtime, or comes up before time for you to get up.
If you live in a very hot climate, you may adjust to getting up earlier to take advantage of cooler mornings.
2. Exercise - think about how cardio and weights are part of your summer activities. Could you play some sports, do work in the yard, hike or swim - using some gym time for outside time
3. Fresh food- summer is a great time to eat local- or grow some of your own.
4. Remember sun screen!!
Remember, failing to plan is planning to fail

Many of the botanical gardens in Europe were started in the 16th century, near hospitals to provide herbs for the patients. Today, these gardens have grown and provide shade and peaceful interludes in large cities.
Looking to mother nature for support is a healthy habit worth developing
