One month into the New Year it’s time to take stock with how everything is going. Personal wellness has a major impact on day-to-day life and can truly make a difference in your health. It’s only February — there’s plenty of time to get back on track! Here are some ways to get a personal boost this month:

Hormone Health

Imbalances in your hormones can affect many aspects of your health. Hormone imbalances can be managed without replacement therapies as there are natural alternatives. If you feel like you’re struggling with restless nights, moodiness, or weight gain, you can get a free hormone health assessment through NamasteGreen, a Charlotte-based health coaching group owned by Merritt Tracy and Jennie Dawkins.  

Daily Gratitude

A daily gratitude list is a great way to re-center, calm the nerves, and figure out what really matters to you. Gratitude lists provide you with a sense of purpose. When making your list keep it quick and easy–something that can be memorized or easily read. The next thing is to get to listing.

Meditation

Mindfulness meditation can have positive effects on mental and physical health. Benefits of meditation include reducing stress, improving sleep, and increasing focus. The point of meditation is to observe without judgement. Learning to meditate is like exercising a muscle — consistent practice is necessary.

CBD

CBD for relaxation and stress relief is a growing phenomenon in Charlotte. The use of CBD oil, which is legal, can help with depression and anxiety. Charlotte’s first dispensary, Charlotte CBD in Plaza Midwood, has a variety of CBD products and can point you in the right direction based on your needs.
