As I read reviews about the 2016 Seattle Health And Fitness Expo, I got to learn the latest trends and innovations related to sports and wellness. There were also exhibitors that displayed their new products and services. All these have encouraged people to think about getting back to their exercise regimens and some also mentioned that they are planning to start a new exercise plan. That is among the many benefits of hosting a health and fitness expo in your area or in other areas as well.

Wonder how you can start or join a health and fitness expo? Here are some tips and guidelines before making it big.

Find Other Partners.

Identify small or big groups that are interested in partnering with you. “The way group members interact when they are assembled matters. Indeed, these interactions are more important for success than the intelligence of each group member,” Sian Beilock Ph.D. points out. Your expo should have a theme and so does your other partners. Also, think about how many of these partners you would like to join you. Then when you have done this, you can now determine the date for the launching and work backward. Plan the activities about two months before the event. It is important to consider holding it in the morning, on a weekend, etc. Think about the audience you want to capture and when they are possibly available.

Plan Your Budget. 

Write down everything you need to spend on such as rent of the venue, tables, chairs, internet needs, sound system, and booths. To save money, ask for donations and sponsorships from well-known companies, preferably those who are on the health and fitness niche so that can think of displaying their products and services at the expo. You must clearly convey your purpose for hosting such an event and your need for their support. “Budgets help you to pay attention to your goal,” Art Markman Ph.D. emphasized.

Find Volunteers.

One can find willing volunteers from health and fitness buffs themselves who are eager to learn more about getting healthy the right way. This is one of the most time and money-efficient ways of hosting the expo, getting more people to help at a lesser cost. First Determine how many you need and assign them places or designated areas where you can possibly put them. “You may be surprised at the ways volunteering can help you reach career goals,” Jonathan Golding, Ph.D. and Anne Lippert, PhD say,

Use Promotional Materials And Social Media.

Advertise your event through flyers, daily radio announcements, and of course, social media. Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook are very powerful tools to get through to people all over the world. This is the most effective way to ramp up the promotion weeks before the event.

If there is one thing that you need to improve in your life right now, it is the ability to become mindful of everything that is going on around you. When you practice mindfulness, you will become happier and more content with your life. It was during 2015 new york mindful movement symposium that I learned about the value of mindfulness. I have to say that my attendance during the seminar changed my life for the better.

 

 

Nowadays, I feel free and independent. It seems like nothing is holding me back from experiencing pure bliss or true happiness. I want to share this experience with everyone, which is why I am going to share the exciting ways on how you can become mindful. Below are some of the things to consider:

 

Take It Slow

 

You can never give attention or focus on things that matter if you are always in a rush. It is the ultimate reason why you must make an effort to slow down. There is no reason to be in a hurry at all times. When you learn to take things slow, you will become more in control of yourself. According to Heather Moday, M.D., “Making time for rest can recharge your ability to deal with commitments, relationships and impact your overall health. This is because your mind and body are intrinsically connected.”

 

Achieve Peace Of Mind

 

Get rid of all the adversity and negativity in your life. Do not let negative thoughts prevent you from being mindful. Instead, find a way on how you can quiet your mind from everything that is causing issues or problems. For example, you can try meditation. If possible, it is also best to go out of town for a quick vacation. Lissa Rankin, M.D. says, “If you want to optimize your health, extend your life expectancy, and feel as vital as possible, you need to help your nervous system live in a state of peace.”

 

 

Being mindful is not an easy thing to do, especially if you can get easily distracted with all the clutter around you. “Teaching ourselves to calm down and to be more receptive than reactive is a practice made possible through mindfulness techniques,” Lisa Firestone Ph.D. points out. As such, it is significant for you to be committed to reaching the state of mindfulness. The entire journey is going to be difficult, but the end can be highly rewarding.

If you want to take your mindfulness movement to the next level, starting with apps like BetterHelp can be your first step. You can also benefit from social media when it comes to giving constant tips and reminders. With the guidance of trained professionals, you can slowly but surely walk the path to mindfulness.

 

It is such a cliché to hear, “Health is wealth,” but it is much more than that. Health is happiness. The 2015 Miami Physical Fitness Month aims to remind people to be more mindful of their health, both physically and mentally.
