Monday Tip: Show Yourself Some Love
💖Valentine’s Day is only around the corner (hint hint fellas:))❣
Modern Valentine's Day, while originated to honor a saint, has become a commercialized grand gesture of love. Americans spend more and more each year to display their affections; cards, decadent dinners, bottles of champagne, chocolates and candy. But, you can make this another day to show how much you love yourself and your new choices.
Valentine's Day can be spent smiling when you treat yourself or your significant other on these day dates.
If you're fortunate to live in a mountain area make a day of it and go skiing. Skiing is a great way to burn calories and you can enjoy each other's company or the beautiful scenery on the gondola ride up, snuggle up by the fire and relax.
Ice skating is a fun, aerobic exercise, that helps with balance and improves mental health. Take the date inside and get your heart pumping and your arms burning at an indoor rock climbing gym.
Nice weather? Enjoy an intense or low impact bike ride and explore the city you live in. After all of your hard work take a break and relax with a massage. You can reduce stress, pain and muscle tension.
Wind your adventurous day down and jazz up dinner or prepare a romantic meal with these decadent recipe ideas 😏
