The Benefits Of A Sunrise On The Beach
Hey Sunshine!
Watching the sunset at the end of a day at the beach is always a lovely and relaxing finale. In my blog earlier this spring, Change Your Mindset Watch A Sunset, I talk about all of the health benefits of this beautiful activity. But what about a sun rise? People don’t generally watch the sunrise as often, probably due to the hour you have to get up to actually witness it. But it is oh-so worth it!
The Sky Is The Limit
For those of you who are not near a beach, There are gorgeous natural settings to watch the sunrise everywhere, like a lake, mountain, wide open field with a huge open sky, or even a rooftop!
It’s the middle of summer, which is the perfect time for this Lightened Up Life activity! There is nothing like waking up before dawn and excitedly grabbing a big blanket, a thermos full of your favorite coffee (or tea!) and heading to the beach to witness the gorgeous sun rise out of the ocean.
The Best Way To Start Your Day
You could go alone for the solitude and sacredness of this experience. Honor this quiet time of day. The birds are waking and singing, and you can feel a faint breeze as you sit still awaiting the morning light show. The peacefulness of watching the sun begin to illuminate the sky is unparalleled. Just observing the rise of the sun is a morning meditation unto itself. Starting your day in this way will give you a deep sense of calm and balance, and set you up for a great day ahead.
You could bring your honey with you for some added romance, or bring the kids for a memory making family experience! You could even pack a picnic basket! Relax into the full experience of this morning adventure by having breakfast on the beach.
Don’t Wait Any Longer
Plan a sunrise trip to the beach ASAP and literally “lighten” up your life!
