With Valentines Day just around the corner, now would be the perfect time to start planning what you want to buy for your loved one – so when Valentines Day comes round, you’re not in trouble!
But the question always is – what do you get?
Another cheesy heart-shaped box of chocolates?
A traditional bouquet of red roses?
A cliche teddy bear?…
Even though everyone likes a little bit (or a lot) of chocolate on Valentines day, wouldn’t it be nice to give something unexpected this year as a surprise?
Well if you like the sound of that but you’re stuck for ideas – we’ve done the thinking for you (just don’t ask us to write the card too!)
So here you go, take a break from the ‘cliche’ this Valentine’s day and try one of these 5 Healthy ideas:
1. Take a hike
What about going for a hike somewhere like the Blue Mountains? Getting some fresh air with a nice daytime hike is a great way to spend quality time with your significant other while getting in some good exercise.
Getting outdoors is known to boost your mood as well as energy.
If you’re looking for a weekend-long way to celebrate turn your hike into a camping trip!
2. Take a Swing At Golf Or Tennis
Whether you and your other half are already pros, or if it’s completely new to one or both of you – taking a golf or tennis lesson is a great way to do something active, fun and learn something new together!
Not only is it a fun activity, tennis and golf come with a number of health benefits… including improved aerobic fitness and better bone health.
3. Make Your OwnDark Chocolate Fondue
It’s no secret I’m a big fan of chocolate – and I can bet you’d be lying if you said you didn’t look forward to enjoying some on Valentine’s Day.
And when you start dipping fresh fruit in chocolate? Even better. So why not melt some dark chocolate (which is great for you!) and cuddle up on the sofa.
4. Go Ice Skating
Ice skating is one of the most fun activities to do during summer – it’s hot outside anyway, so why not – it’s a great way to cool down.
It’s a great low-impact workout (assuming you skip the intense twirls and jumps), and great fun
Just make sure to warm up before hand, and hold onto each other for dear life to prevent any falls – which let’s face it, are likely to happen!
And…
5. A Luxury Massage
Perfect for family women and men, office workers and housewives who deserve a break and some ‘me-time.’
