Staying cool with watermelon
It’s officially summer today. Here in south Florida, that means trying to stay cool. And also being jealous of family and friends who live further north (oh you lucky snowbirds)!
This morning my husband and I decided to take our daily walk at 7:30 am because it was already getting muggy. Coronavirus cases are still on the rise here, so we’re not venturing outside much besides walks in the neighborhood. It’s also fun to take a drive every now and then to get out of the house.
What do you do to stay cool? I drink sooooo much water during the summer. I also like fruit and light cool meals like salads. Even my personal yoga practice is a little slower, not as “sweaty” active as it may be in winter..
Also, with so much happening in the world right now, we can become “overheated” with agitation about our circumstances and constant news as we try to stay informed. It’s so critical to stay committed to taking correct action for ourselves and our world, but also to take the time for self-care and to stay centered.
Speaking of staying cool and centered, you can practice yoga with me indoors from the comfort of your home. using the Zoom livestream video option. I’m offering 3 public classes per week:
Chair Yoga 2 - 3 PM EST, Monday and Wednesday
Mat Yoga 10:30 - 11:30 AM EST, Thursday
Classes are by donation, because I want to make yoga accessible to all regardless of ability to pay. You contribute whatever you think the value of the class is, and what fits your budget. All contributions help me keep my business going and are greatly appreciated!
