The renewal of nature motivates to do some decluttering not only in your home, but your mind too!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<\/p>\n<p>Start by shaking the dust off from furniture and clear windows. Then move on to awareness and mindfulness practices to break out from old beliefs and behaviour patterns that do no good no more \ud83d\ude42<strong style=\"letter-spacing: 0px;\">\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>2.\u00a0<\/strong>It\u2019s greener and fresher day by day, and the first green herbs indicate it\u2019s time for a cleanse!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Our ancestors knew exactly how plant medicine can help you cope. One of the toughest and first to rise in spring is dandelion. The bitter herb is known to be an invigorating tonic to wake the body up after the hardships of winter and a remedy to cleanse the blood.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t limit yourself with dandelion leaves &#8211; if you\u2019re not that good in herbalism, or live in a city, just eat a lot of green stuff! Salads, smoothies, sprouts &#8211; all that did not work well in winter frost, will do good now that it\u2019s spring!<\/p>\n<p>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>3.\u00a0<\/strong>All that wants to grow, needs energy and effort. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Get yourself off the couch, and get moving! Not just for your beach body goals, but to release the stagnant energy. Just being outdoors in the fresh air brings along many health benefits, but even better if being outdoors encourages more activity.\u00a0<a style=\"letter-spacing: 0px;\" href=\"https:\/\/naudenaturals.com\/en\/outdoors-is-free\/\">Outside is free, you know!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>4.
