Clean your tools and put them away. Scan your body for tense or sore spots. If you find some, do a yoga thing and breathe into the tight area, allowing it to open and relax. Drink a glass or two of water after you garden and, depending on how much energy you've expended, have a piece of fruit, half a bagel or some yogurt mixed with cereal. This will replenish your reserves and move you to your next activity feeling energized, not fatigued.
Gardening can be a challenging activity for mind and body.
Use your fertile imagination to find ways to make gardening comfortable and satisfying, a source of strength and flexibility. Say you're at Applebee's. So many choices, so little information. Frying can triple the fat and calories in foods. Choose baked, broiled or grilled menu items.
