We know that exercise is important. Improving your health includes increasing the amount you move around each day. Does it require a gym? Not necessarily…if you are motivated enough to move on your own.

There are plenty of DVD’s that can guide an exercise program at home, for folks that can’t leave their loved ones. There are exercise programs on TV, you can follow at home. The problem usually is finding the time and energy to carve out some time that is dedicated to you, when you are busy caring for someone else, working, going to school or anything else that life has thrown your way.

Here is the most important part of this message: YOU have to believe that YOU are worth the time that it takes to pull yourself away from your daily routine, and take that walk for 15 minutes, or exercise with the DVD that you need to dust off and see if it still works. YOU ARE NOT ONLY WORTH TAKING THAT TIME – IT IS NECESSARY!

Doing some physical activity, any physical activity; reduces stress, increases your oxygen level and releases endorphins that are natural energy builders.

I fall into the same trap. I don’t have the time aka I don’t make the time, and what good does that do? Nothing. So let’s think out of our normal box and make the abnormal happen. Start increasing your activity level in small amounts; 10-15 minutes a day, and let us know how you are doing.
