On today’s podcast Jessica Graham Robinson and Kirstin Pinit rap about how to keep you and your family healthy and happy this summer. Summers can be tough; the days stay lighter later, the kids are out of school, and they don’t have a consistent schedule, which in turn can wreak havoc on the parents schedules. It’s important to realize that you, as parents, have the power to decide what you want summer to look like for you and your family. Perhaps the summer routine looks completely different from the school year routine, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be fun, healthy, satisfying, and nourishing all the same. Jessica and Kirstin give us tips on how you and your family can create parameters to stay on course and keep the daily rhythms and habits that are essential for health and stability. Learn to involve your kids in your own Body Thrive habits and enjoy a summer of easeful living!
