Today I was blessed enough to participate in Universal Avionics Health Fair for their employees. Of course the Rule of The World came into play; I was invited due to my friendship with Deb Carnsew. Thanks, Deb!
Having never exhibited in a Health Fair before, it was fun and creative to determine what I wanted to offer to the employees. I decided to theme my table using a combination of Yoga and doTerra Essential Oils. And what fun it was sharing both ideas with the employees!
I offered a hand-out of yoga poses that can be done in and around a chair, and offered sniffs and drops of several doTerra Essential Oils (Lavender was the biggest hit!)
I also offered Tootsie Rolls to all with the reminder of ...
TREAT YOURSELF TO 20 - 20 - 20.
This means ....- Every TWENTY minutes step away from your computer (or device)
- Look TWENTY feet into the distance
- For at least TWENTY seconds
- And TWIST, stretch, yawn, breathe, whatever ... just MOVE.
I was surprised at all of the head nods I received, and it made me feel so much a part of humanity. WE ALL INSTINCTIVELY KNOW what is good for us, but we all find a thousand reasons not to follow our inner voice and hearts.
You know the old saying .... "we teach best what we most need to learn" (Richard Bach). I'm grateful that I had fun laughing at myself when asked "do you do this?" Of course I admitted that I don't consistently follow my own advice. But we did all agree, how necessary the practice of remembering 20 - 20 - 20 is.
Have you figured out a way to avoid getting sucked into your device? If so, PLEASE SHARE!
I am a student first, and a teacher second.
