WAYS YOU CAN

CONSERVE WATER

By Nick Boulton

T

here’s plenty of ways to help conserve water, whether it’s not letting the water run while you’re brushing your teeth, taking a shorter shower, using less water in a bath or even not flushing that number 1 and only that number 2....GROSS! But seriously one of the best ways to conserve is to water smarter on your property.

It’s hard to know if you are overwatering or underwatering at times especially when we have far swinging weather from sometimes freezing in the winter to 100+ in the summer. During the summer, it’s only natural to feel you need to water more during that excessive heat of the summer. However, this is counter productive since fungus sets in due to too much water and is generally followed by mistaking fungus in your grass as dry grass, since they are similar in appearance. A common reaction is to water more, thinking that the grass is burning up but in turn this is only fueling the fungus and wasting more water. Three things to help remedy this are: treat the problem with a good fungicide, apply a moisture control that will retain moisture control in a positive way instead of a negative way,

8 I www.swmlife.com

and to address what is causing the problem. By changing your water practices, it not only will help your grass health, but it will further help conserve water.

We all want our yards to stay beautiful, lush and green. And with one of our most precious resources as water, we have to find ways to conserve. So ask yourself, “Am I killing my lawn and plants with intended kindness and in turn wasting that precious resource?” If so, look to the water conservancy and their suggested watering practices. The best one that we have found is to “cycle and soak” and we have seen great success with it. Because everyone’s landscape and irrigation system is different, you may need to adjust your personal schedule differently or hire a landscaper to help you dial everything in. Variables such as soil, weather, flow rate, and plant type will affect irrigation needs.

The cycle and soak method of watering on grass is watering several times a day, an hour or two apart.

This allows water to soak deep into the soil creating healthy roots and eliminating runoff. This way

days can be skipped between waterings. Even in the peak of summer, watering every other day (at most) is sufficiant. Watering less frequently teaches the grass that it can’t rely on having water everyday. This stresses the grass just enough to teach the roots to grow deep into the soil to seek after water. Grass roots, believe it or not, can grow up to and even more than 6’ deep to find water. Once you can train your grass roots to grow this deep, it helps your grass become extremely hearty.

SO HOW DOES THIS LOOK AND WHAT CAN WE DO TO START THIS? • Run 3 cycles per watering day • 1 hour between each cycle • 5 minutes for a fixed spray or 10 minutes for a rotating spray (times can vary based on coverage of sprinkler heads, slopes, condition of soil, etc.)

• Monitor and adjust as needed Have days in between with no watering to further train your grass and allow it to air out and breath.

Drip, water low and slow to allow plants, trees and shrubs to be watered directly at the root, using a low pressure for a longer period of time.

WATER BASED ON YOUR DRIP EMITTER’S RATE OF FLOW: • 20 – 40 minutes for high-flow emitters (deliver a steady, light stream of water; up to 20 gallons per hour) • 30 – 90 minutes for low-flow emitters (deliver bead like droplets; 1-4 gallons per hour) Click the links for more content!

www.swmlife.com I 9

If a plant appears to be stressed, check around the plant bowl and the roots to determine if the soil is dry or waterlogged, both conditions can cause plants to show a wilted appearance. If you have issues manifesting your irrigation should be adjusted to fit your property.

ADDITIONAL PRACTICES THAT YOU CAN DO: • Avoid watering from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. in the summer months • Adjust sprinkler heads so they don’t spray walls, driveways or sidewalks • Trim around sprinkler heads so lawn doesn’t block the water spray • Use the most efficient types of nozzles and irrigation clocks

• If you don’t know or aren’t familiar with how your irrigation clock works, find someone that does to avoid mistakes.

• Check the sprinkler system weekly and immediately replace broken or missing parts • Overwatering and underwatering can cause brown spots; be sure to check water pressure and sprinkler coverage and adjust as needed We can all help and do our part to water on our property smarter and in turn help the health of our grass and plants out as well as to conserve water for the future.

PACK IT IN PACK IT OUT

By Diana Juarez

Did you know about The Packing It Out crew?

Back in 2015, on a single day on an Appalachian Trial, they packed out over 126 lbs of garbage.

Now, don’t get me wrong, I feel the same sense of accomplishment when I go to a park or lake, picking up my own belongings and any little garbage I see along the way. But 126 lbs! We should not be getting to these points with our recreational areas.

Visiting parks, lakes, and recreational areas offers us invaluable opportunity to unwind and relax with nature and our loved ones. However, its important to recognize this advantage comes with a responsibility to safeguard these spaces for future generations.

Click the links for more content!

Enter the mantra: “Pack it In, Pact it out.” The name is pretty straightforward: whatever you bring with you to a natural area, you should take it out when you leave. The goal is to Leave No Trace! Imagine showing up to your campsite, picnic spot, or hiking trail, and it’s so pristine that you’d never know anyone had been there.

Listen, am I a seasoned hiker or expert outdoorsmant? No! But that doesn’t mean I don’t enjoy everything nature has to give when I go to the lake or on a hike with my family. Embrace “Pack It In, Pack It Out.” Let’s preserve these natural wonders for ourselves and for the generations to come.

DIGITAL DETOX UNPLUGGING FOR A MENTAL CLEANSING

By Ally Thompson

In today’s hyper-connected world, where smartphones, tablets, and laptops are ubiquitous, it’s easy to become overwhelmed by the constant barrage of notifications, emails, and social media updates. While technology has undoubtedly revolutionized the way we live and communicate, it’s essential to recognize the importance of taking a step back and unplugging from the digital world.

Enter the digital detox—a deliberate and conscious decision to disconnect from electronic devices and the online world to focus on mental and emotional well-being. Much like a cleanse for the body, a digital detox allows us to reset and recharge, reclaiming our time and attention from the often overwhelming demands of the digital age.

12 I www.swmlife.com

BUT WHY IS UNPLUGGING SO IMPORTANT & WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A DIGITAL DETOX? First and foremost, constant exposure to screens and digital devices can take a toll on our mental health. Studies have shown a clear link between excessive screen time and stress, anxiety, and depression. The endless stream of information and constant connectivity can leave us feeling mentally drained and emotionally exhausted. By unplugging, we give our minds the opportunity to rest and rejuvenate, fostering a greater sense of calm and clarity.

A digital detox can help us reclaim our time and attention. In today’s world, it’s all too easy to get sucked into the black hole of endless

scrolling and mindless browsing. Before we know it, hours have passed, and we’ve accomplished little of real value. By disconnecting from our devices, we free ourselves from the constant distractions and interruptions, allowing us to focus on the things that truly matter—whether it’s spending quality time with loved ones, pursuing hobbies and interests, or enjoying moments of reflection.

Additionally, unplugging can improve our sleep quality. The blue light emitted by screens can disrupt our natural sleep-wake cycle, making it harder to fall asleep and stay asleep. By powering down our devices at least an hour before bedtime, we give our brains the chance to unwind and prepare for restful sleep, leading to more refreshed and rejuvenated mornings.

free zone in your home, such as the bedroom or dining area, where electronic devices are not allowed. Use this time and space to engage in activities that nourish your mind, body, and soul— whether it’s reading a book, going for a walk, or practicing mindfulness meditation.

It’s also essential to be mindful of your digital habits and consumption patterns. Take stock of how much time you spend on your devices each day and identify areas where you can cut back. Consider using apps and tools that help track and manage your screen time, such as screen time settings on your devices or productivity apps that block distracting websites and apps.

Lastly, be gentle with yourself and remember that a digital detox is not about deprivation or cutting yourself off from the world entirely. It’s about finding a healthy balance and reclaiming control over your digital habits. Start small and gradually increase the duration and intensity of your detox as you become more comfortable with unplugging.

In a world that’s constantly connected, taking time to disconnect is more important than ever. A digital detox offers a much-needed opportunity to reset, recharge, and reconnect with ourselves and the world around us. By unplugging from our devices and embracing moments of stillness and solitude, we can cultivate greater mental and emotional wellbeing and live more meaningful and fulfilling lives.

SO HOW CAN WE EMBARK ON A DIGITAL DETOX AND REAP ITS BENEFITS? Start by setting boundaries and establishing designated times and spaces for device-free activities. Whether it’s during meals, before bedtime, or on weekends, carve out dedicated periods of time where screens are off-limits. Create a technology-

Outdoor workouts and exercise routines for health

By Jared Brimer

In pursuit of better health and wellness, many of us turn to gyms, fitness classes, and home workouts.

However, amidst the concrete jungles and indoor facilities, we often overlook one of the most natural and rejuvenating fitness environments—the great outdoors. Incorporating outdoor workouts and exercise routines into your fitness regimen not only provides physical benefits but also nourishes the mind and spirit. Let’s explore the concept of “green fitness” and discover the many ways you can use nature to enhance your well-being.

Connecting with Nature: Step outside and breathe in the fresh air. Whether it’s a nearby park, a forest trail, or a beachfront, nature offers a diverse and invigorating backdrop for physical activity. The sights, sounds, and smells of the outdoors awaken our senses and inspire us to move our bodies in ways that feel natural and free.

Research has shown that spending time in nature can reduce stress, anxiety, and depression while boosting mood and overall mental well-being. By taking your workouts outside, you not only improve your physical fitness but also cultivate a deeper connection with the natural world.

14 I www.swmlife.com

Outdoor Exercise Options: The possibilities for outdoor workouts are virtually limitless, catering to a wide range of interests, fitness levels, and preferences. Here are just a few ideas to get you started: Trail Running: Lace up your sneakers and hit the trails for a dynamic and challenging cardio workout.

Running on uneven terrain engages different muscles and promotes balance and stability, while the scenic surroundings make the effort feel less like exercise and more like an adventure.

Hiking: Strap on a backpack and explore the great outdoors on foot. Hiking offers a low-impact yet effective way to improve cardiovascular health, strengthen muscles, and boost endurance. Choose trails of varying difficulty levels to tailor the intensity of your workout to your fitness level.

Outdoor Yoga: Roll out your mat in a tranquil natural setting and practice yoga amidst the beauty of the outdoors. Whether it’s in a park, on a beach, or in a forest clearing, outdoor yoga allows you to harmonize your breath with the rhythm of nature, fostering a sense of peace and serenity.

Bodyweight Workouts: Take advantage of outdoor amenities such as playgrounds, benches, and stairs to create your own outdoor gym. Bodyweight exercises like push-ups, squats, lunges, and planks require minimal equipment and can be easily adapted to suit your fitness goals and abilities.

Swimming: Dive into a natural body of water and experience the exhilaration of outdoor swimming. Whether it’s in a lake, river, or ocean, swimming outdoors provides a full-body workout that’s gentle on the joints and refreshing for the soul.

Tips for Safe and fun Workouts: Before embarking on your outdoor fitness journey, keep these tips in mind to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience: • Check the weather forecast and dress appropriately for the conditions.

• Stay hydrated by bringing water or a sports drink with you.

• Protect your skin from the sun’s harmful rays with sunscreen and appropriate clothing.

• Listen to your body and pace yourself, especially if you’re new to outdoor exercise.

• Be mindful of your surroundings and watch out for potential hazards such as uneven terrain, wildlife, or changing weather conditions.

Green fitness offers a holistic approach to health and wellness that embraces the healing power of nature. By taking your workouts outside, you not only reap the physical benefits of exercise but also nourish your mind, body, and spirit. So, lace up your shoes, step outside, and discover the transformative effects of outdoor fitness on your journey to a healthier, happier you.
