Are you making sure to be active every day? I don’t mean vigorous exercise
(although that’s great if you’re in a regular habit you’ve built up
to)…I mean at least walking for a minimum of 10 minutes per day.
Start your day with a 10 minute walk.

Go around the block. See some trees, flowers,
birds, neighbors, kids. Say hello, and smile. Breathe deep with every
step. Make it as brisk as possible, and put some joy in your steps. No,
the neighbors won’t think you’re a nut! They just might join you, and
wouldn’t that be nice.

If you have trouble walking, sit in a chair and do some light stretches to relaxing music, or a DVD of nature.

The point is to move your body today.  Please!  It will make you feel better.

Please post a comment and tell us how moving your body makes you feel good.
