Wellness Tips from The Pekoe Group
What do you do to keep yourself grounded during the daily grind? These are some of our favorite ways to cleanse our bodies and minds:
Meditation– Kick off your day by relaxing and enjoying some deep breathing exercises. To enhance the experience, feel free to light some incense. Meditation is a great way to decrease stress and anxiety and help you enjoy a more positive outlook on life. In addition to cleansing your mind, mediation can also help to lower blood pressure and strengthen your immune system. You can find some guided mediation exercises through YouTube or by visiting http://www.the-guided-meditation-site.com
Yoga-Yoga is another great tool that you can use to cleanse both body and mind. You can choose to sweat it out in hot yoga, twist your body into advanced poses, or focus on deep breathing. There are many yoga studios located throughout the city that offer classes for all levels at affordable prices. A few to check out include, mang’Oh, Earth Yoga NYC, Integral Yoga Institute, and Reflections Yoga
Juice Cleanse– Looking to purify your body and get rid of toxins? A juice cleanse, which usually lasts between three to ten days, can help! While you’re on the cleanse, you’ll be drinking raw vegetable juice, fruit juice, and water only. No solids! New York has made it very easy to complete a juice cleanse by offering a variety of different juice stores throughout the city, some of which offer delivery straight to your home or office! Be sure to check out Organic Avenue, and Juice Generation.
Massages– A massage is a great way to clear your mind and make your body feel great. Massages can alleviate stress and anxiety, and help release endorphins, which relieve the body of pain. After a 30 to 45 minute massage, you are sure to walk away feeling revived, physically and mentally. Check out Red Door Spa, Massage Artists, Ohm Spa, and Eden Spa for different types of massage options and services.
