Your Energy & Health Impacts Your Pet - Time for a Post Holiday Reset...Let's Rest & Repair
A Time to Rest and Repair for You and Your Pets
January often finds us feeling a bit blah after the excitement and energy of the holiday season. In our latest podcast episode, Jenn speaks with Pet Grocer staff member and owner of Be Light Wellness Coaching, Sarah O'Donnell, about the importance of rest and repair—for both you and your pets.
We explore the deep connection between our mental and physical well-being and how it can influence our pets' health. Just like us, they need time to rest, recharge, and repair. Here are some key concepts we discussed in the episode:
- Self-care: Prioritize activities that help you feel grounded and balanced.
- Unplugging: Take breaks from screens and digital distractions.
- Meditation: Practice mindfulness to reduce stress and promote calm.
- Grounding: Spend time in nature to reconnect with yourself.
- Eating Comforting and Nutritious Foods: Enjoy foods like broths, stews, fresh fruits, and vegetables to nourish your body.
- Gratitude Practice: Reflect on positive moments to shift your mindset.
We also discuss the science behind these practices, exploring how they support both mental and physical health for you and your pets. These practices benefit you and can also create a more peaceful, healing environment for your pets.
