Is it just us, or does 2017 seem to be flying by? Amidst work, keeping up with resolutions and trying to fit in a social life, caring for ourselves can easily fall to the wayside. Making yourself a priority, however, has numerous health and wellness benefits, including reduced stress and increased happiness. Whether you only have 10 minutes or an hour a day to set aside for this, here are 5 tips to help you make the most of it:
Journal: Just take 10-15 minutes and write it all down. Reflect on your day, your goals, and anything you’re feeling particularly grateful for. Journaling about positive experiences allows your brain to relive the experience, resulting in the release of dopamine and endorphins, which boosts your self-esteem and mood.
SilkPeel Dermalinfusion: If a one hour facial is a luxury time will simply not permit, pop by for a 20 minute SilkPeel Dermalinfusion instead. This treatment works to remove surface build up and congestion while stimulating the skin to produce collagen. Bonus: it can be used on all skin types and treats sun damage, wrinkles and acne, and, best of all, will leave your skin glowing.
Pursue your passions: Maybe it’s reading a thrilling novel or maybe it’s painting. Whatever it is, take the time to do something you enjoy. Not only will this help recharge your batteries, but activities outside of work also bring about more joy and happiness, contributing to a fuller, well-rounded life.
CoolSculpting: Caring for yourself includes caring for your body, and although we know we should eat healthy foods and regularly exercise, sometimes that’s simply not enough to lose that last bit of stubborn fat. Cue CoolSculpting: a non-invasive, non-surgical way to slim down that will leave you feeling great! Interested in learning more? We will be hosting a CoolSculpting event Thursday March 16, 2017 from 4-6pm at our Coal Harbour location. Keep an eye out on our social channels for more details!
Get outside: Finally, get outside for some fresh air. With the power to change your mood, bust stress and increase happiness, spending time outside should become a daily practice. Other benefits include a strengthened immune system, sharper mind, increased energy and clean lungs.
So, this month (and every month here after) we challenge you to make yourself a priority and to put your health and wellness at the forefront. Looking to start today? Call us to book your SilkPeel Dermalinfusion treatment or schedule a consult if interested in CoolSculpting. To RSVP to our March 16 CoolSculpting event, call us at 604-256-7725.
