Live Well
Live Intentionally
Elevate Your 2026
Start the year by prioritizing your peace and strength! If you’re looking to move, stop by the Downtown Berkeley Farmers’ Market on January 10th to stock up on organic winter greens and fresh local honey. Prefer a mindful start at home? Try these four pillars for a balanced January:
Physical: Commit to a 10-minute daily "Berkeley Breeze" walk to soak up some morning Vitamin D.
Mental: Swap 15 minutes of scrolling for a gratitude journal to reset your focus.
Spiritual: Set a "Word of the Year" (like Growth or Stillness) to guide your intentions.
Wellness: Hydrate first! Drink 8oz of water before your morning coffee to kickstart your metabolism.
