Hello Challengers! If you haven't heard yet, Spring Practice week begins one week from today! If you haven't chosen a team yet please send Ceriusly1 an MFP mail.

Our 2023 Spring Challenge Theme is "Taking Time to Enjoy the Flowers of the World"

“Can we conceive what humanity would be if it did not know flowers?” (Maurice Maeterlinck), in answer to this quote, I sure can't!

I found 19 Proven Benefits of Flowers that discusses research studies of the benefits of flowers. I will share a few here. For further reading please see the article.

Flowers Can Help You Focus.
Flowers Can Help You Sleep.
Flowers Can Increase Energy.
Flowers Can Help Improve Mood.

@Dianedoessmiles1 has written our itinerary which will be showcasing different flowers and flowering trees around the world.

🎉🛬Landing Bonus Points are back! The OALs want everyone to have the opportunity to see and explore the beautiful sights that we visit so get your miles/minutes posted early to help your team land quickly.

Our Living The Good Life, (LTGL), Theme is, "Spring Clean Your Health to Refresh and Renew"

In the natural order of things, Spring is a time of renewal. The days start getting longer, the temperature begins to warm, we look for the first robin, and green appears as if by magic. Nature's best!

I enjoyed reading 9 Tips for Spring Cleaning Your Health

"If you want to pay your health and well-being a little extra attention this spring, but don’t know where to start, here are nine tips to get you started." I'll list a few that tie in to our LTGL activities. For further reading, please see the article.

Fill Your Plate With Fresh, In-Season Fruits and Vegetables
Stay Hydrated
Get Outside

Our Spring LTGL activities are:m5rdomw1laim.png

We, hope everyone enjoys our new Spring adventures! Best wishes for a fun and successful Spring Challenge!

    Thanks for the heads up on what’s happening with the spring challenge.
    It gives us time, in case we need it, to plan ahead and look for realistic opportunities to do them.
    Maybe even get them on the go now so we can make a decent fist of them

    The flower theme is inspirational and the countries we will "visit" sound interesting, too. Thank you leaders for you work and time on this challenge. It should be fun as well as helping us with our weight loss goals.
