Fun in the Sun

Summer is just around the corner!  My favorite time of year, though I’m also becoming quite fond of the Texas Sprin g & Fall.  But honestly, I like it warm. That’s why I moved here!  With summer comes outdoor activities… and here are some tips to help you make the most of your time outside:

• Water. Drink water or other fluids. regularly.  Lots of it.  If you are thirsty, you are already 10% dehydrated.  This can lead to muscle cramps and irregular heart rhythms.  Helps keep your body temperature regulated.
• Vitamin D.  Spend 10-15 minutes/day outside without sunscreen to get your daily dose of vitamin D. After that, slather the sunscreen on!
• Electrolytes.  If you are a heavy sweater in the heat, you might consider taking in more electrolytes.  Loss of these through sweating can increase muscle cramping, and a decrease how well the body functions.
• Be outside in non-peak heat.  Mornings or evenings.  Afternoons, aside from peak radiation from the sun, tend to be most challenging.
• Light colored clothing.  Stores less heat.  Dark colored clothing keeps it. Mosquitos are also drawn to the darker colors.

Stone of the month: Garnet

Garnet is a protective stone, promoting healing, strength, and protection. It is thought to strengthen the aura, and create a positive energy field that repels negative energy. As a healing stone, garnet is used to relieve skin conditions, especially inflammations (wear next to your skin that needs healing), and regulates heart and blood. Cunningham’s Encyclopedia of Crystal, Gem & Metal Magic.

Everything under the Moon

PartyLite Show, Thursday, June 10, 7pm.  You are invited!  Please RSVP if you are coming.  What is Partylite? www.partylite.biz/melaniethayn

Amber Moon Studio is now on Facebook!

Amber Moon Studio will be closed on Memorial Day.

Please remember, and be kind to your massage therapist. I deal with several clients a day, and if someone comes in sick, this means not only the possibility of me getting sick, but my other clients as well. Even though I wash/sanitize my hands regularly before, during & after sessions, some germs just don’t give up. If I catch it, I will be unable to help those that need my services. Please be pro-active! Thanks.
