Spring freshness
Start the warm season healthy and fit

Why is it the spring that is often regarded as the ideal time for inner cleansing or detox treatments? In this blog entry, we would like to illuminate the deeper reasons and the natural circumstances that make the spring the ideal time for this purification and renewal of our body and mind. 

The change of the seasons influences not only the nature around us, but also our inner state of mind and health.

  • Symbol of a new beginning
    The spring is traditionally the time of new beginnings and the awakening of nature. After hibernation, nature awakens to new life, which also applies symbolically to the human body and spirit. Many people therefore find that the spring is the perfect time of year to rethink old habits and start a fresh, healthier lifestyle.
     
     
  • Availability of fresh vegetables and fruit
    Spring marks the start of the season for many types of vegetable and fruit that are rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. These nutrients support the natural detoxification of the body and cleansing from harmful substances. Fresh greens such as spinach and rocket or young carrots are not only healthy but also tasty, with a wide variety of uses in cuisine.

     
  • Spring cleaning for the body
    Spring is also the ideal time for inner cleansing. After the winter, when the body tends to store more and focus on protection against the cold, a light diet based on fresh ingredients can be a welcome relief for the body. Detox treatment in the spring can help to break down what has gathered during the winter, strengthen the immune system and raise energy levels. This is beneficial not only for physical health but also for wellbeing.

 The flowers of spring are the dreams of winter.

  • Exercise in the fresh air
    After the cold and often dreary winter months, when we naturally tend to get less exercise and indulge in more hearty foods, the spring with its warm temperatures and longer days gives natural incentives to spend more time outdoors in nature.  Exercise in the fresh air stimulates the circulation and the metabolism, helping to break down fat deposits. This is not only good for our body but also has a positive effect on our state of mind. The daylight and the natural surroundings help to increase our vitamin D level, improve our mood and not least promote better sleep.

 

  • Mindfulness and relaxation
    Make use of the quieter time to focus on mindfulness and relaxation. Practices such as yoga and meditation can help to calm the mind and strengthen the body. We at Eschenhof offer weekly sessions that help you to find inner peace and concentrate on the here and now.


     
  • Healthcare
    The spring is not least also a good time to review your healthcare. Plan regular check-ups and preventative consultations to ensure your wellbeing. Our in-house medic is available for consultations and examinations to accompany you through a healthy and fit spring. In summary, the spring with its symbolism, the available fresh foods, the better weather and the psychological effects offers an ideal basis for promoting health and wellbeing through inner cleansing.
