🌿 Wellness Tip Wednesday
Check In With Your Body.
*
Your body is always giving you feedback — the key is learning how to listen and respond, not ignore it.
*
Feeling stiff, low-energy, or “blah” doesn’t always mean you need to rest completely. In many cases, gentle movement or light exercise can actually increase energy, improve circulation, and reduce tension more than leaning into the tiredness.
Try this check-in today:

Ask yourself:

• Am I truly exhausted and in need of rest?

• Or am I stiff, sedentary, or mentally drained — and could movement help?
A short walk, light stretching, or easy mobility might be exactly what your body is asking for.
*
Listening to your body means knowing when to rest and when to move.
