5 Simple Ways to Slow Down this Summer in Tulsa


Summer is a special time of year.  Barbecues, pool parties, farmer’s markets and enjoying the outdoors along with friends and family. 

Here are a few ways you can enjoy the summer:

1.  Enjoy fresh, locally grown produce. 

Summer fruits and vegetables are plentiful and this is the easiest time of the year to eat fresh, locally grown produce.  Right now there are so many great things to choose from including fresh herbs, watermelon, corn, tomatoes, blueberries, strawberries, and peaches, plums and nectarines.

2.  Plant and Watch the Flowers Grow

One of my favorite parts of summer is planting flowers.  I love nature and the energy I get from watching something grow.  Whether you live in a house or an apartment, you can have flowers.  Nothing brightens a mood like coming home and seeing a beautiful basket of flowers waiting for you. 

3.  Get a Pedicure

Summer is the most popular time of year to get a pedicure.  After a long, dry winter, those precious little feet need some TLC.  Nothing brightens up a pair of cute sandals like a nice trip to the spa for a pedicure. Schedule yours by clicking Here.

4.  Read a Good Book

There isn’t much I like better than hitting my favorite park (or backyard), laying down a blanket and opening a good book while sipping on raspberry tea.  Shade trees are the best. 

5.  Plan a Picnic with a Friend

Have a picnic, even if it is just in your own backyard. Just eating outdoors is one way to enjoy your food more because you tend to slow down and observe the beauty of nature around you.
