This time of year we often feel the urge to tend to our gardens, our yards, our closets and our living spaces. It’s a natural and healthy result of being in sync with the seasons and the world around us. And it can be very therapeutic to do so. Just think of how good it feels to clean your house from top to bottom with the windows open and the fresh crisp air blowing in the sweet smell of springtime.
But how do we prepare the physical body for this big transition?
Just like the brown grass and weed-filled garden, our body needs tending to. We need to excavate the residue of winter and reset the body back to a “new normal.”
Are your insides in need of some spring-cleaning? Let’s find out!
