YOUR SUNDAY
MID MORNING PRACTICES
Stay hydrated - sip water continuously through your day
Using a water bottle, aim to drink 6-8 cups in your day.
Our bodies are ~60% water, so even the slightest bit of dehydration can negatively affect how we function, from energy levels to digestion and even immunity.
Staying hydrated will also improve your body’s ability to absorb nutrients, keep your digestive system working properly and improve the condition of your skin.
Accelerator:
Add in your choice of electrolytes or vitamins to enhance your wellbeing.

Become aware of your posture
Check-in and notice your posture. Small changes can make a big difference.
Sit with your pelvis in a neutral position, buttocks against the back of the seat. Keep ears, shoulders & hips aligned, maintaining a normal lower back curve. Evenly distribute your weight over both hips. Keep knees slightly lower than hips with both feet flat on the ground.
Physical benefits include: reduced neck, shoulder & back pain, eye strain, headaches and fatigue. And mentally: improved stress, mood, self-esteem, confidence, and performance.
Accelerator:
Get up every 30mins to move around. Or set an alarm each hour as a reminder.

Take two minutes to slow your breathing and be calm
We can enter a more relaxed state simply by focusing on the inhale-exhale ratio of breathing as we go about our day-to-day lives.
Breathe in for a count of 4 and out for a count of 8. Repeat five times.
Accelerator:
Gradually increase the length of your exhale, or increase the number of repetitions.
