Three Places to Make Changes for Better Health

THREE PLACES TO MAKE CHANGES. . .

Forty hours a week we sit at work. One to two hours of television per weeknight. Think about the hours we spend sitting in the car and lounging for no particular reason. Don’t forget the 7-8 hours of sleep every night. What are you doing to move your body with those extra hours? Here are 3 ways to make changes to improve your health. 

In the car

 We are limited to very little movement when we are in our vehicles. Take this time to meditate and focus on your breathing for stress relief. Also, practice good posture for your core strength while driving.

At your desk

We spend a third of our day, five days a week stuck at work. Standing up every so often to stretch can amp your energy. This can even work out kinks in your body that build up throughout the day. Use your break times to walk around the building and use the stairs so you can burn calories. The extra weight you’ve been holding on to will soon be melting off and you will have the energy to finish each day strong.


In front of the television

The best answer is to get away from the television and do something active. If you absolutely cannot miss your nightly episodes, then get up and move while you watch. During commercials do combinations of floor exercises or stretching. When your show begins, try walking and jogging in place. Do that for one whole episode a few days a week and notice the change in your body.

The main thing to take away from this blog is to get up and get moving. It will help you burn calories, get stronger, feel better, and have more energy.
