But all this takes time and it takes effort. So what abut now? Today? What do you get? Exercise has great rewards and you can cash in on them now! Better Sleep. Better Focus. Better Aging.
A great article in the NYT sheds light on a movement by Dr. Michelle Segar to re-wire the way you think about exercise. CHECK OUT MORE ABOUT DR. SEGAR'S BOOK BELOW
Three Quick Tips:
- Find what is fun: choose exercise you enjoy and change it up as much as you please.
- Put you first: make time early in your day to exercise before "to do's" pop up and take time away.
- Do what you can when you can: Life demands a lot from us, but just because you can't work out for the 30 minutes you planned. Get to the gym or a jog around the block - the 10 or 15 minutes you squeeze in makes all the difference.
We all love instant rewards. So set your longterm goals but enjoy the short term gains.
I have no connections to this book or Dr. Segar.
Just want to #InspireChange and get you to #LiveHeartHealthy
