Your spine and body will experience some changes as the seasons start to change. It’s important that you prepare for these changes. Here’s what you can do to prepare:

• Warm Up Before Doing Chores: Warming up before doing any chores can help to prevent any strains or injuries. 
• Layer for Warmth and Mobility: Dressing in breathable layers can help you to stay warm without overheating. Using thin gloves while raking can help to improve your grip without over-squeezing, which can travel tension up the shoulders and neck.
• Support your Vitamin D and Recovery: Your Vitamin D will start to go down as it transitions into fall since there will be less sun. It’s important to still maintain decent Vitamin D levels so that your body is healthy. A good way to get Vitamin D is to eat foods like milk and eggs.
