Tips for Achieving More Balance in the New Year

With the holidays almost behind us, many of us are already starting to think about how to start the New Year off on the right foot.  Since we can all use one less thing to stress about, we’re sharing a few tips that are sure to help make 2014 your best year yet – thanks to Leslie Hendry yoga and meditation expert and author of the kids app “Tejas & Lollipops: The Great Clean-Up.”

Leslie’s Top Tips For Creating a New Year, New You:

1) Start With a Clean Slate – Take an inventory of items in your home you no longer use or need and donate, recycle or pass on to a friend or family member.  Creating more space in your home will make room to physically and emotionally invite new energy into your life!

2) Get Organized – One easy way to get rid of time wasters like searching for keys, sunglasses, etc. is to create a ‘home’ for items you use regularly. By keeping these items in one consistent place, you alleviate stress and create a more efficient, calm living environment.
