We’re asking local experts for their need-to-know tips and tricks on a myriad of different topics. Every other Friday, our Life Hacks program is live on Facebook as guests share information and knowledge that can benefit our community.
Nicole from Yoga Generation first joined the Life Hacks program to lead us through a chair yoga routine. These gentle stretches and movements can be done using just the chair at your work desk, table, or anywhere in your home or at work. The routine doesn’t take long, only about 15 minutes, which is just enough time to take a break and add some movement into your work day.
On March 26, we switched gears and focused on self-care tips for parents. Kandace Dondona, a Life Coach and professional counselor, explained self-care as any daily activity that promotes health and well-being at a mental, physical or emotional level. She went on to list strategies such as slowing down and focusing on one task at a time, making a habit of getting fresh air every day, or writing down what’s going on in your day, which can help relieve stress.
You can watch both of those past programs on our Facebook page:
• Chair Yoga with Yoga Generation
• Self Care with Kandice Dondona
Don’t forget to tune in to future Life Hacks videos on Facebook Live. This month, we’ll be live at 1:00 pm on April 16 and 30.
