By now, after 4 months of dealing with COVID-19, many of us have gotten used to adapting our schedules and routines to serve the greater good and limit the spread of this serious illness.

This means adjusting our goals, but we still have to remain vigilant in order to have a productive year.

One way to make sure you continue to have a productive year despite COVID-19 is to have specific summer wellness goals. 

First, make sure that you stay up on your strength and cardio training. Maybe give yourself a max run or have a seriously long hike in mind for the end of the summer… and work your way toward that day by day.

Try to incorporate a friend in your wellness goals, that way you can hold each other accountable for showing up each day — you’ll be far more likely to hit those goals by the end of the summer.

Eat healthily and try to experiment with your active recovery protocol. A great compliment to a productive summer is chiropractic treatment, which will help your brain and your body fire on all cylinders.

If you’re planning on getting active this weekend or actively enjoying your holiday weekend celebrating with a few family members and maybe a few friends (while practicing social distancing guidelines, of course), it’s still important to have an active recovery plan.

Instead of wasting the day after July 4th loafing on the couch, there are many options when it comes to activities or practices that will leave you feeling great all day.

Below Family Chiropractic and Natural Healing Center goes over a few ways to recover the smart way after the Fourth of July.

First, it’s important to eat healthy after the holiday. Clean, whole foods should be placed at a premium after vegging out with family and friends. Staying hydrated throughout the day will also ensure that your body functions at optimum capacity. 

Choosing to go on a nature hike might be a great idea to save for the day after 7/4. Going the day after the Fourth of July will more than likely have you coming into less contact with other people, which is still essential during times of COVID-19. Getting out and getting back to nature after celebrating Independence Day will be just what the doctor ordered.

Chiropractic treatment is also a great way to recover from a long weekend, whether it’s from exercise or extracurricular activities. Contact Family Chiropractic and Natural Healing Center to learn more about how our treatments can be an effective component of a great active recovery plan.
