Be A Happier & Healthier You in 2018!

Nostalgia is romantic, but it can be ultimately futile, especially when it involves judgement of some of the best things about modern life. Social media, smartphones, ubiquitous connectivity; we often read harsh criticisms of these phenomena on Facebook, yet they enrich our lives in many ways, helping us stay informed, keeping us connected, and helping us out in emergency situations. Rather than lament over the loss of the technology-free life, why not choose a balance of both? It is much the same with the materialism vs spiritualism argument; it is possible to shop for your favourite bikini yet head for a beach paradise to hone your spirituality; in fact, this apparent dichotomy is exactly what modern spiritualism must embrace, or it will risk being just another part of nostalgic rumination!

It’s All in the Details.

 

You don’t have to give up your beach holiday, forget about fashion, or stop going to nightclubs to deepen your spirituality. There are many small steps you can take in your daily life to be a more spiritual person; science indicates this is definitely a worthy pursuit. Studies have shown that people who are more spiritual, are generally happier. In part, this is owing to community support, and in part from the tranquillity that comes from knowing that there is something greater than ourselves, that connects us with all other human beings. Spending just a little time in nature enhances ourspirituality, since sitting quietly on the seashore or contemplating a lush landscape instils a mindful state in which we are content to just ‘be’ in the present moment. 

In silence, we can listen to the thoughts and emotions that are often suppressed in our day to day lives, and look to nature to find the perfection and harmony that can so often be lacking in urban life.

There are many other small ways you can enter a reflective state of mind, which is conducive to spirituality; these include reading philosophical books, practicing yoga (which, like nature, is a powerful mindfulness-based activity) and meditation (which also keeps the mind ‘in the now’).

 When choosing your next holiday, you can also make spirituality a focus. Think of going on a beach yoga retreat, or head to a jungle paradise where you can discover a plethora of exotic plants and animals. Try to include relaxation, healing activities in your agenda, including therapies such as Reiki, massage, meditation. 

Make nutrition a focus too, opting for whole instead of processed and fast foods.

Being more spiritual involves small changes, such as spending more time in the Great Outdoors. It also involves big decisions, such as taking a holiday to the seaside in lieu of opting for a city break. The toasty sands of the beach of your choice will offer you the perfect chance to show off your best bikini and kaftan. 

However, you can also work on your rich inner life, which is easily as beautiful and intricate as the most stunning natural sights you will encounter on your trip.

Sandstorm recently met Christi for a swimwear photo shoot and her kind nature and beautiful looks helped us decide to sponsor her swimwear during her Miss Intercontinental Wales reign.   Wearing a Sandstorm leopard print monokini, with a 'bond' type look, Christi looked liked a swimwear superstar on her recent shoot with us.

Christi commented:'I couldn't have had a more wonderful piece to wear for the shoot, I absolutely adored it and loved shooting in it!
