Take a dip
This week’s forecast calls for 85 degrees and sun. Yes folks, it’s gettin’ hot in here. But instead of taking off all your clothes, how about jumping in some cool, refreshing water? And while you are there, do some yoga. That’s right. Yoga is effective both on land and at sea, so chill out and give some water yoga moves a whirl. You’ll not only find that aqua yoga relaxes your weary muscles, but the water will support your weight, allowing you to mover deeper into your poses and hold them for longer periods of time. Kind of like those handstand contests you used to do with your gal pals back in the day.
Where to dip? If you are fortunate enough to own your own personal swimmin’ hole during Minnesota’s hot and sticky months, more power to you. And if you are one of the pool-less, lucky for you, we live in the land-o-lakes. So hop on in one. Or adopt the tradition that city-dwelling Minnesotans have been practicing for many, many moons—befriend someone with pool access. Either way, you dip, I dip we dip.
