Happy Holidays! | The Outdoor Edit Newsletter

THE OUTDOOR EDIT NEWSLETTER

Hellooooooo!

I'll keep this one short and sweet today since a) I still have a ton of holiday stuff to do and b) I'm sure you're feeling the same way. So I'll just remind you of what I said a couple weeks ago: Give yourself permission to take breaks as needed, from sneaking to the restroom for 5 minutes of reading on your Kindle app on your phone to napping instead of getting in that high-intensity interval training. You'll start the 2020 season fresher because you gave yourself some grace!

XO,
Molly



USE THE CHRISTMAS BREAK TO DIAL IN A TINY HEALTHY HABIT
Since you're already knocked out of your normal routine, why not use this time to sneak in a new healthy habit? I don't mean going HAM and deciding to do the Whole30 on Christmas Eve, I mean something like meditating for 5 minutes each day or flossing. Here's why I think it works: Vacations + Habits: How to Make a Break from Routine Work in Your Favor

BUYED, TRIED, LOVED
I've been seeing a lot of 2019 roundups of gear that people truly loved, so I wanted to do one myself—8 Products I Loved in 2019… And 4 I’m Excited About for 2020! And PS: All of the products listed are ones I paid full price for. That's how much I love them.
